Yes, absolutely! We're always looking for folks who are willing to help out with improving the game.
I'm actually the one to get in touch with here though, not Matt. Matt would just pass you on to me and he's busy enough working on OOTP23 right now anyway

(so am I, and all of us for that matter

).
For anyone who's interested in helping with new stories, pbp, any other text writing, rosters or any other specific area of the game, or even just general beta testing, please do feel free to drop me a line and let me know what areas you're interested in helping with and a little bit about your background, skills, history with the game etc.
I can't guarantee we'll have an immediate spot on the beta team for anyone who does so, as we only have limited places, but we're always on the lookout for folks who are passionate about the game and willing to help out, whether immediately or at least to keep you in mind for any openings in the future.
