I'm having trouble with the walkthrough provided: I go through the
whole punch thing, get the note, wait for the two characters to walk
away, and follow the directions, but when I get there, Elora isn't
there! Any advice?

It worked ok for me. Note that there are two sets of punch things you
have to do -- first you have to get rid of the wives, and then you
have to get rid of your brother.

Ah. All right. I have just gotten rid of the wives. I have been
following the walkthrough, but not down to the letter. That is to say,
I haven't been looking at everyone it says I should. I managed to get
through the first two chapters fine without doing that, however. Do I
need to follow it down to the letter?

Just a general comment here. I think it's okay by the rules if you email
authors directly. I for one would appreciate a little light in this ongoing
void. This is especially true if you've already made your permanent
score -- conversing with the author outside the public venue shouldn't hurt
anything. I only bring this up because I believe other authors would
appreciate preliminary feedback, too (doesn't have to be much), and because
even harmless public discussion might put the wrong (or even the right) idea
about a game into future judges' minds.
