Hey… 

Perhaps I am one of the frequent lurkers you mention here.

I enjoy reading some of the emails I receive though not all as sometimes the volume is over my capacity.

I appreciate the active participation of some players who represent the thoughts of many others.

I like this community.

So just keep on…

Some of us were on a call on Tuesday, talking about Open Space....and OSLIST....

...the participants at the time were....

Chuni Li
Daniel Mezick
Karen Davis
Linda Stevenson
Lucas Cioffi
Paul Levy
Peggy Holman
Skye Hirst
Suzanne Daigle
Tricia Chirumbole
Harold Shinsato

We discussed OSLIST culture, and how the culture of OSLIST may not actually be very easy to figure out...

...we talked about how this list has hundreds upon hundreds of members, with just 25 to 45 people (give or take) who post or reply with anything close to a regular frequency, and how some speak with highly authoritative voices.

...we talked a bit about how the culture of OSLIST might actually be kind of intimidating for new people to participate in.


The Game

We have no idea how many "regular lurkers" are in the group...we talked about trying to find out.


So: if you are a "regular lurker", someone who examines these OSLIST threads periodically but does not actively participate ...  are you willing to play a little game? 


The Lurker Game: you are invited to play...

1. ...The goal is to collectively get some idea of how many of us on the list are "regular lurkers".

2. ...The rules are: 

*	If you consider yourself a "regular lurker", consider opting in to the game, by replying...
*	If you reply, absolutely nothing further will be asked of you. All you are doing is identifying yourself as someone who lurks. That's it. 

3. ...We'll all track the progress by watching the thread, and seeing how many reply over time. 

4. ...Participation is opt-in. 



To participate, just hit [Reply List] and enter "hey" and press [Enter] ...or...

... (optionally) just say whatever you might want to say, instead

We have no idea what might happen next; let's see what develops. 

Thanks!
Daniel
