How are we unidentified? It seems to me like the majority of posters on Less Wrong who strongly advocate a view along the lines of what you’re describing post under our real names. What more could we do to identify ourselves?
Now I’m feeling username envy. I’m Cameron Taylor, from Melbourne! I can’t think of a better world saving option than the one in question, even if my advocacy is of the form ‘least bad’.
(I don’t know what the ‘unidentified subgroup’ idea was supposed to be. It makes no sense.)
You’re from Melbourne?? I’m American but I’ve been traveling in Australia the past few months. I’m in Byron Bay now. Do you know Patrick Robotham? I met him when I first got back here and stopped in Melbourne. He organizes the Less Wrong Meet-up at Don Tojo in Melbourne near the University. You guys actually have a surprisingly good number of LW rationalists there. Perhaps the most anywhere outside of the California Bay Area, New York, or London.
They’re brand new. Patrick only started organizing them after meeting with me and realizing how many other LWers there were in Melbourne. I think there has only been 1 or 2 of them but there is a large critical mass of attendants from what I heard from Patrick.

I haven’t made it to one of the meet ups yet. I must at some stage. I didn’t realize they were so well attended!
