Playtest Application-A Small Complaint
« on: May 16, 2008, 12:21:18 AM »
I sent in my application like weeks ago, and I've heard nothing back.

Do the designersnot want willing people interested in the game to do improve their game prior to release?

I'm not really mad, just a little confused.

You're one of 600 applicants!

As I've tried to make clear several places, this is a months-long process, with multiple stages.  You were sent an email when you put in your application, automatically, but we aren't doing follow-ups every few weeks to let folks know they're still in a holding pattern.

Details about the whole process are here:

LOL, well I jumped on the application wagon a long long while back, but I know that it's a application and that if Evil hat wants to target certain groups/area's then it may be awhile before they get around to other applicants if at all.  So I wait, may reapply but I'd be happy with the release of the actual game too and the powers that be that choose playtesters may want to keep the input at a low level of chaos, I know I'd hate to sort through 100's of emails pointing out possibly the same thing in the beta phase of game developement. 

Oh and you guys haven't seen me for awhile, glad to be back work is no fun for gaming/reading.
