Thx for these beta-testing suggestions, brell. 
While your 4 points give very good and practical information, your introduction is maybe even more important.
Being volunteer to beta-test a mansion is not a trick to play a new custom mansion earlier than other forummembers. And at the end of the mansion only telling that it was a tough one and that you missed 17 % of the secrets.

slowrooms in a mansion, there is a remarkable difference in frames per second. Full screen makes Jack even more slackening. :'(
