Quoting sgtfly

Sounds like a way to get into the playtesting business to me. Good job bud.

So would I qualify as a amateur? I have only been seriously mapping for about two years but I haven't actually released much. Also, when submitting a interview, is there some sort of form to "fill in the blanks" or do people have to label each answer to a question by hand? (copy pasting results in strange bullet-point configurations)

Amateur = Doing something you don't get paid for or haven't been formally trained on. So, unless your full time job is a level designer ... yeah, you're considered amateur. However, the word has nothing to do with actual knowledge level. It's usually misused to mean inexperienced, but that's actually wrong.

It's funny, I normally pride myself in my extensive vocabulary but it seems "amateur" was in the wrong place in my mental dictionary (I mean, I even had to Google it to get the correct spelling). Thanks for clearing both my questions up guys.
