About a core team of betatesters:

I know Zen that one week cant be sufficient to test all aspects of new themes, and even more if you take into account MP.

But its better than the current situation, where there is overbooked IW, and thats pretty all. The aim would be to filter out the biggest loopholes (like having the possibility of getting a vampire count at turn 8). Sure some issues would still be there, but hopefully of less importance. Old MP veterans here (Pepe Mus, George McGinn, Nagot Gick Fel (Jacques Vidal), Alexander Poger, etc.) have sufficient insight to be able to spot issues even without playing actually. Give them a themes with all the parameters attached, and they can pretty well round down what can be abusive just by looking at it.

As of now we get a patch which can have big issues or exploits, and we will have to wait some time before having it fixed (no disrespect mean to IW, they dont have 8 arms...).
I say, elect a squad of people which are on a special mailing list that IW read, and lets them debate about what a patch change before releasing it.
