Just a quick update. I’m on schedule to update the game against on the 24th.
Later this week, I’ll send PMs to the Round 3 testers even though the link won’t be ready yet. I do that to see how many “active” folks are around and see if I need to expend the Group or not. The PM will just ask you to “like” the Private Message OP.
And to the Round 1 and Round 2 people who are staying on the ride, thanks so much!

How can I get into the groups for beta testing???
I’m not sure if @Eric_Moser cut off the testers yet, but I believe all you need to do is say that you are interested. Previously we had to have played CCH1, be 18+ and… I forget the third requirement.

Hey I’d love to help if you still need testers. Cch was the first book I played for and loved it! I’ve been dying to play cch2 since I first finished number 1. I’m 24 so got no problem with content. Just please tell me that book 2 will have more fates with my love interest. I went through issue 4 without a single date with her 
I am 18, I have played CCH 1 and anything else reviewing wise I am interested in
Ive played CCH 1 very extensively, I loved it, the charm of the game really resonated with me. I am over 18, and will have enough free time to beta test. I’d love to get the chance to help out!
I’m still taking testers because this process will take a lot of time!
But I won’t be answering questions for a while. I am taking a week off from writing to give my family more of my time. I have been burning the candle at both ends since April and I/we need a break. Then I have a 3-day writers conference here in Louisville Oct 6-8th (where I get to hang out with Lucid, LordIrish, and MizArtist!)
THEN I will get back on the horse and write some more scenes. I’ll probably push Round 4 back to November 5th to give me a few weeks of pure focus on writing scenes to get to the finish line.

I would love to be a beta tester if not aww well I’m still glad to cheer from the side lines. The first one was amazing, I wish I could read the stories back to back but I wasn’t lucky enough for that. Can’t wait to read more of your stories in the near future. Untill then I will be bouncing off the walls with anticipation.
Omg i can’t wait for CCH2 i loved the first one the second one will be amazing I’m sure

If your still taking testers I would love to beat test. I’ve played CCH 1 extensively and I helped beta test CCH 1 originally as well.
Update: Writers’ conference is in the books and I am VERY energized!
Will post again closer to November 5th. Thanks everyone for hanging with me!

Yes, @kristopher_townes and @JVM, I’ll likely need testers through December and maybe later. My goal is to have the “dirty/rough” copy of the game done by end of November, and then the “clean copy” of the game ready sometime in January. Both timelines keep shifting.

I went ahead and invited everyone from @Greyscales (Post 85) through @Alatar (Post 109) for Round 4!
All you need to do right now is “like” the PM you get. That’s it.
I will post the link on Sunday, November 5th. I just sent out the PMs early to give me time to figure out how many folks may have disappeared from the forum in the past 4 months. I’ll give everyone a few days to check in, and then invite more folks to the group if that ends up being the case.

Well it won’t be Group 5, as I still have 80 or so testers before you, but you can definitely take part if you want!
It will probably be December.
Tentative Schedule:
Posts 85-109, November 5th
Posts 110-135, early December
Posts 136-160, late December
Posts 161+, January
Anyone physically, mentally and emotionally able to test it one more time, January-February

Everyone in Group 4 received a PM invite! Link was posted last night. I’ll leave it up for at least 2 weeks.
@Ramar_Blood, yes it is, but frankly it’s not true beta testing yet. I essentially took the second half of game development to private testing.
@ender1, just don’t disappear from the forums then!
I have months of work still to do.

Making good progress during Nano month, so I’m pushing back Group 5 until I have the first draft FINISHED.
Probably have another 15,000 words to finish the last few major scenes. Will try to finish it this month but no promises!
