[Deptheads] Re: Play Testing at GAMEX?

I've said I will twice. Sorry guys but I'm on the road and only sent the last long one because I was startled by how many people jumped on it. It's coming, don't worry.

There was also interest expressed by the initially invited class, who design and develop their own board/card/computer games, to have their games play-tested at the convention.

If there isn't going to be any official (amateur) playtesting event, could you please let me know so I can inform the professor that his students should not submit games?
