Filling out your beta form is an interesting exercise in psychology. :-)

Based on that little snippet of data and random chance, you really have to be able to sell yourself to MM and present a solid pitch.

I gambled on the rant and included related data about my skills as a professional programmer, software tester, and hobby 3D modeller. I triple checked the form for spelling and grammer errors to show that I was an effective communicator. I even mentioned that I was going on vacation April 1st for a fortnight and that I was enough of a gamer geek that I could spend 40-60 hours beta testing a product. It's just fortunate that my wife is flying to Michigan for a visit at that time. Perhaps the fates are smiling on me?

What kind of errors? Spelling errors you say?
Yeah, Aaron is looking for a variety of systems, and people with a variety of experience too.
Hey David, do you think we should have included nongame related testing on the application? Like I said, I'm a professional software developer and I make my own test plans and test my own software, as well as other testing roles.
