So we want to start another round of looking for a new designer for the V-sets, just like we did last summer. This time we are looking for someone for V-set 12, to be released at GenCon 2016. The deadline for applications will be May 25th, 4 weeks from today. Fill out the questionnaire below and PM the answer to me (Echo) at the SWMGamers forum (please don't send me the PM here on Bloomilk, the formatting is more difficult to copy over). This is just step 1 of the process, after the 25th we will review the applications and get back in touch with finalists for further steps.
Note that there are some small changes from last year's questionnaire (a couple new questions, a couple questions removed), so don't just copy/paste last year's if you filled one out then.
