@Slammer, I think all testers or testery types should play for the sake of knowing their stuff about the game, as well as testing the new version. So consider "Playing" as being tantamount to "Testing".
Eh, sorry, lost in the ether lately. Mostly working out and prepping for leaving for basic in October. Though I've been playing some TF2 and CNC3 in my spare time, that's about it.
