Great idea! I’m in for anytime that day.
I shall be skyping with you all at 9 AM East Coast time–but don’t we need to have one another’s skype user names?
Hi Everyone!
My understanding is that if one of us has a skype premium plan, we’ll be able to do a multi-party video conference with up to 10 participants.
I’ll set it up for this call.
Could everyone who wants to participate please send me their Skype user names? If you send me an e-mail from my profile page, I’ll respond and give you my Skype user name.
Then I’ll contact you via Skype and ask you to add me to your contacts list.
I’ll initiate the call at 8:55 AM Eastern on the 21st.
Hi Everyone,
I am new to here and would like to attend the Group Meditation on Dec 21, 2012. I am located in the west coast of Canada. I tried emailing whippoorwill but wasn’t eligible to because I was new. Liz, could you please email me regarding this skype group meditation?
Thanks,
spiritdancer
Wow, so many people signing up, this is great! I am excited 
I live in Vancouver and would like to join in on the “Day of Doom” Group Meditation at 9:00 AM EST (6:00 AM PST). I tried to email whippoorwill with my Skype name and received the following message: There Was A Problem With Your E-mail You don’t have enough posts to email other members…
Could someone tell me how I can remedy this block. Thanks, Roy
Hi Healthy119,
It will be great having you with us. 
You need to have 5 forum posts to be able to use the forum emailing system. But since you have posted here, whippoorwill can now email you and you can send the Skype id to her.
Thanks again!
We need an “excited” icon! Then I’d use two!!
Hi Shanti,
Thanks for your prompt reply to my question. Using the AYP Forum Support administrators I received an email from whippoorwill regarding the 21-12-2012 9AM EST "Day of Doom Meditation”. At this point I am trusting all will go well. Thanks again!#128522;
Hi dear all…
Just wanted to share that using skype will not be convenient for me on 21st, however, I will join the group meditation, and pretty excited about it …
I think it will be 7:30 PM Indian time.

Hi Everyone!
I’m looking forward to our meditation Friday!
So far, I have AumNaturel, mikkiji, carson, kami, cosmic, healthy119, and spiritdancer signed up with me on Skype. If anyone else would like to participate via Skype, please send me a note as soon as you can. There’s still plenty of room.
Just in case there are any newcomers who would like to participate but can’t yet use the forum’s e-mail, I’ve put my e-mail address in the bio section of my profile. I’ll take it down again after the meditation, but please feel free to contact me via that method until then.
Some tips to follow:
Please look at your screen saver settings and make sure that your screen saver will not come on for 30 or 45 minutes.
I’ll initiate the call at 7:55 AM Central (8:55 AM Eastern) and I’ll let it ring on your computers until either you answer or the meditation starts.
Once we start the meditation, if you haven’t answered, I’ll hang up your line. Please don’t try to call me back, as this will likely disrupt the meditation. Just hang out and meditate anyway. You know we’re there!
I wish I had some time to do a real test before going live with this, but I haven’t been able to pull one off. There are some unknowns, but hopefully things will go nicely for us. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
All the best to you!
–Liz
Thank you kami, whippoorwill, and all for putting this together!
Will the format be eclectic-mixed, or like the “AYP Global Group Meditation”? How long will it be? If doing DM beyond our normal time or the 20 min, should we change to silent/breath/samyama the remaining time?
Hi Aum,
Looking forward! I suggest the global group meditation format, if that is ok with everyone.
Liz, will this be a video or audio only format?
Also, many from my meditation group at work will be joining in at that time for various periods of time (not on Skype, however )
Love,
kami
Hi Kami and everyone:
It will be a video format.
I can set a timer for 20 min, if you guys like. And then allow 5 minutes to rest.
After that, if anyone wants to hang around for a few minutes of chit-chat that’s fine. I’ll have to end the call at 9:45 AM Eastern.
Does that sound okay?
Sounds great here!
Perfect!
Thanks Liz 
Sounds good to me, see everyone in the morning
I’ll be right ready for the meditation in the morning… am working a 12hr night shift that ends at 6am and then I will join you all at 7am for meditation. Beware my night shift vibes. 
Thanks again for putting this together, it was wonderful to connect a face/voice with some of you. Definitely up for the next one!
That was fun.
