Wow, those are long URLs (silly roundup web UI)!  Here's how I list the
open tickets created by any of those three users using ru[0]:

  $ ru list '@filter=status,creator&status=-1,1,2,3,4,5,6,16&creator=igloo,simonpj,simonmar'

Actually, you can trick ru into doing it shorter, since "ru mine"
reports both open tickets you created or are assigned to work on:

  $ RU_USER=igloo,simonpj,simonmar ru mine

Note that I'm not searching for tickets that contain the *words* igloo,
simonmar or simonpj.  So you may get false positives/negatives.  Ideally
we'd search for any tickets for which those users are stakeholders
(i.e. in the nosy list), but that requires a roundup extension that
isn't installed yet.
