[QUOTE="Kinak, post: 6205524, member: 6694112"] That's the intent of the playtest, but playing D&D, as I'm sure you know, takes a lot more than just downloading the files and hitting run. You have to get someone excited. They need to go out and get their friends excited... in theory excited enough to also sign up for the playtest, but whatever. They all need to set aside a time, competing with other games and other leisure activities, and actually play. But that's exactly the same process people will be going through when they have the game in hand on launch day. If that process is breaking down, they need to know where and why. This brings me to the flipside to your suggestion: WotC wants to get as many people playing the game as possible. Potential customers and wary customers are the ones they should be getting feedback from. The people who are sure either way are largely irrelevant. Cheers! Kinak [/QUOTE]
