This is the perfect place for this discussion.

Again, this is the perfect place to announce and discuss the playtests.

Once again you're in the right place. In some eyes once a week will be too
frequent for the same advertisement...once a month might be better.

And yes, I think all would appreciate a prefix of [Ad] before the adverts.

Nice to have you in the newsgroup again. I've found your design discussion
interesting so far and look forward to seeing how it developes.
