where do I find it? I'm happy to be a tester. Do I need to be added by someone? I can't find it in the games list when I search

You have to be a tester, or else get invited by the developer I think.

About trading: is there a way to do several single trades at once? For example, if I want to trade brick for lumber, but also wool for grain, is there a way to do that as 2 single trades? I have the impression that for now you have to do it in one batch, or one after the other. But certainly in turn-based, that way it takes a lot of time.

Anyone know who the developer is? I've played an awful lot of catan in my time including on the various incarnations of the (now truly awful) playcatan website and keen to help develop this BGA version if it's not too late to join the party.

This ought to be made possible if it currently isn't. It is normal to simultaneously trade say 1 wool and 1 grain for 2 brick / 1 brick and 1 ore / whatever, or even, when needs-must, trade different numbers of cards 2 for 3 etc (good old supply v demand bartering). Provided all the trade happens with the same person there should be no need for multiple repeat trades of single cards.

I think just posting here to express your interest might be enough to get invited. At least I've seen lots of other people do it that way.

Is there a way to be tester even if you don't played 50 different games before ?
