#2 warfteiner Oct 10, 2008 23:36:33	I'm certain there will be. As for when, that's a great question - kinda wish I knew who to talk to in order to submit questions for the Master level test like we could with the 3.5e one. I've got some ideas
#3 Lord_Darquain Oct 13, 2008 15:48:01	I believe they are looking for additional 4e and SWSE questions currently. You can submit them via the "Content" link in judge panel. https://membership.wizards.com/login.aspx?dcionly=true

When I last heard from Chris and Ian, they were reviewing the levels and deciding what they wanted to do with the 4E GM program before committing to any exams beyond Herald. I can't speak to the Star Wars side of things, but for 4E questions you're welcome to submit those through the judge center. I know for a fact that DCI judges and rules advisors have access to submit questions for any game system. I'm not sure whether Heralds have access to submit questions or not. If you do have access, you can go to the Content section of the judge center, and go to the Create tab. If you'd like to submit questions but don't have access, or you have questions about this process, please contact me and I can work with you on it. Thanks! --Jeff Vondruska Judge Center Content Manager

Theoretically, Master Level GMs might be selected to playtest WotC product, and/or RPGA modules/campaigns. In practice I haven't heard of this ever happening. It's likely the reason why Chris is re-evaluating DM levels.

At Master level you gain access to: Senior GM Point Hoard: As Senior GM for an event that reports ten or more sessions, Master-Level GMs receive 20 bonus GM reward points. Levels are explained (as of 2003) here.
