<blockquote>One of our members recently found something called
sociocracy. It's a lot like consensus, but adds the notion of "if
you don't agree, can you still live with this decision?". Which in
reality is what's happening anyway, just making it more obvious.<br>

Do you find that there is a certain percentage who just don't care
one way or the other? Like, there's 10% who just say "meh!" and
never seem to feel positive or negative towards what others do and
what happens around them?
<br>
<br>
My guess would be that even with smaller groups this is the case,
but if so, I wonder if such a percentage can be calculated at all.

(Yeah, that doesn't help you at all now does it!?)

It's not practical to "ask around" and see if anyone minds if
the
<br>
bikeshed is painted pink. Someone's going to oppose almost
anything you
<br>
want to do, and more people want to ask questions and bounce the
issue
<br>
between themselves with not much productive output. And if
we're
<br>
talking about an action that's not reversible, like getting rid
of
<br>
"useless junk" that someone else thinks is very valuable, it can
really
<br>
blow up.
<br>
<br>
Does anyone else have experience using do-ocracy at a large
scale, and
<br>
how has it worked out for you?
