You will need to identify yourself to qualify for the Matrix NDA. There are plenty of anonymous emails you can use... hotmail... yahoo etc. You might consider getting one of those.

[Khornish]

I have an email account. I don't fear emailing people, I just don't want to put my name out in the open where people can ID me.

Having worked in various gaming industries, I keep tabs on things using this alias. So, putting my name out here would put it out elsewhere. It's not as though I'm someone with name recognition to any of you lot here, but I _have_ been rather forceful with my opinions elsewhere and I don't want it to come and bit me in the rear though this medium.

I'll send you a PM with my info shortly.

[Rorgg]

1. Have you played cardboard WiF sufficiently to play independantly?
The answer was at one time yes, but it's been 10 years since I played WiF, so sadly not any more. In fact, I've been waiting for the PC version so I could play again.

3. Are you willing to be assigned one or more specific Test modules
Yes.

4. Are you, or have you ever been a Communist? No! Wait! Wrong question! Forget I asked that.
Only when playing the Russians or ComChis. =D

5. Preferred Name
Chris Warren

6. Preferred email

nevermind...

OK I'm drawing a line in the sand here. We have enough to get us started on testing and we will draw the initial team (plus reserves) from the fortysix people who posted their names. We will select a mix of experienced players and novices. At present your chance is less than 50% to make the first cut so go out and do some good deeds or rub beads or whatever you do to give yourself good luck. Tentative schedule is:

Week1 Jan: Finalise list of playtesters.
Week 2/3 Jan: Get NDA's signed and returned to Matrix.
Week 4 Jan: Discuss test plan for first release.
Week ? Feb: Release code to testers.

All of this is subject to change. More info after I've discussed things with Steve.


Here is the original list from which we will draw the first three waves of playtesters. If you have posted your name and I have missed it then please send me a PM pointing out my mistake and I'll fix it up.

For those who came late, unless you can fund some large bribes in unmarked currency you will not be in the initial team. Don't go home and shoot yourself yet though... there is always attrition among testers and in 3-4 months you may find yourself posting bugs with the rest of us. Don't post your names in this thread. We will open another thread when the time is right.
