Thanks Edwin. We currently have 22 enrolled, which is good, I've only been
recruiting for a couple of days now,  but my target is more in the 40 - 60
range. The game could potentially handle 90 (whether the moderator could is
an open question). There have been a some changes since the opening post.
I've decided that it was awfully pretentious of me to request payment for an
unproven playtest. There's a LOT of effort involved in setting up a game of
this sort, and some sort of compensation isn't evil, in my opinion, but, for
a playtest, it is a little excessive.  The playtest is now free permanently,
even after (and I'm pretty sure people will like it enough) it goes
commercial. I have personnaly promised those that enroll in the playtest
that it won't just end when we've gotten to the point where the game seems
viable. The free playtest game will continue as long as there are a group of
players who want it to. (I've always hated when moderators pull the plug on
a playtest when I've spent so much time and effort in developing a
position).

I want to renew the invitation to all readers of this newsgroup to try the
game on, and see if it fits.
