"Playtesting" as an option in the game list dropdown menu.

While "Other Games" is fine for the myriad of independent games and lesser known rule systems, I think "Playtesting" should be a selectable option. First it would let people know that the rules are still in flux, which may make players that prefer faster paced games pass it up to avoid frustration. Second, (and this is why I'm recommending it), players who are also trying to develop their own systems can find each other and compare notes and ideas. This way instead of just listing all "Other Games" we can zero in on other designers and writers in order to help each other build our ideas up.

This is a great idea. Almost everything in the games list is an actual game-title, or a game-brand with a group of titles. Pretty much only "Other Games" is the only non-specific one. I think "Playtest" would be very useful for another general grouping.
I would love this. I've been looking for a Pathfinder 1E game, but in the top 10 "starting soon" 7 are of the new 2E Playtest. It's really a poor experience, when each D&D edition has its own category.
