Possibly, if I can. Also, will it be a dungeon crawl? I am used to sandbox, so if I know you have something planned, I will try to avoid derailing the entire thing :) .

What time is it? If you'd like an extra player and there's a spot open, I'd go for it.

It 3:30 Eastern Time (which is 2:30 Central Time). I could use another player, if you don't mind playing a pre-gen. It's going to be a mystery/dungeon crawl. It should be fun. Not too hard, but not easy.

Yes, though I wouldn't recommend it, not without converting. Part of testing a module is to see how it would run. Using a system with inflated numbers would not be an ideal good test IMO. But I wouldn't want to stop someone's momentum.

There's no stopping general discussion about other systems and mentioning other groups, but the description of the group clearly says "BFRPG related". Anything else would be a degradation of that topic, IMO. It's like if folks from ENWorld started taking all their 4e discussion over to DF; it just wouldn't be appropriate; moderators would have to move it all to an "other systems" sub-forum or something. Tough call, since we want the community, but not necessarily the noise (or potentially the spam.)

No, the mods over at DF would ban the posters. :)

I don't think that could count as an official play test, but if you just wanted to run one for fun, it would be ok.

Sorry -1Warrior and the rest. My satellite crapped out on me. Sorry for the inconvenience. Typing now from my phone.
