<weg> That'll be why Microsoft wanted to hire me as a sales consultant.
And as much as I don't believe in Windows, it still exists <sigh>.

It looks like we're going to open up the playtesting to a single game
at around the 6 month mark so far. It'll be by email or web only
initially do increase the turnaround on turns. That and the client
program wouldn't be written yet. Definately love to have you on as a
playtester, and that includes anyone else, from GMs to newbies. We'll
be posting information on the playtesting at the website once we're at
that stage.

Which leads to another conversation topic .. rulesbooks. But that's a
discussion for

another thread <g>.
