okay I keep getting really bad beta tester applications
like 2/3 of people leave out the literacy competence question entirely, and almost all the rest botch it with a basic yes/no answer and nothing more
I'm adding this extra tip:
This is a test to see how well you can communicate your thoughts and ideas. The responsibility of a beta tester is to be able to report things that they may not fully understand as best they can, and a solid communication ability is critical.
Explain why you believe what you believe and show reasoning behind it. Imagine you are arguing against someone who firmly believes exactly the opposite. Refute what they might say and be clear about why they should think as you do.
I am also probably going to change the question soon, so now is a good time to apply in case you think the next one is too hard. Unless you think the current one is too hard, in which case wait away.
