If you're thinking of moving to playing online during the current crisis, we have some resources which can help. Links in the thread.
If you need help with the available video options check out here, we have a post with some of the current conferencing options: forums.gauntlet-rpg.com/t/some-differe…
It doesn't cover everything, but it's a good start.
If you're looking for character keepers or play aids for a game, check out:
drive.google.com/open?id=11kvNX…
We've got a ton of resources there.
If you don't see a keeper you need there, browse our playlist of AP videos:
youtube.com/TheGauntletRPG…
If you see someone running the game you're looking for, message that GM to see if they'd be willing to share.
Alternately if you want to make your own, we have guides for doing character keepers in Google Sheets here:

Find a mentor!

That's my (unsolicited) life advice for today.

Everyone is talking about Avery's thread re: game jams and crunch. It's a good thread; please go read it (I'll link to it at the bottom of this thread).

I want to talk about the importance of mentorship.

(thread)
Avery's thread is directed at people who wish to make a living (or at least supplement their income) by making ttrpgs. Making a living at ttrpgs is definitely not easy—there are just basic market factors at play—but if you really want to have a go at it, try to find a mentor.
When I started moving The Gauntlet into publishing, I was fortunate enough to have experienced people like @trumonz and @kylejsimons to help me learn the ropes. (And I'm still learning!)

I wanted to post a follow-up thread about our statement yesterday re: Zak S. These are more my (Jason's) personal thoughts than official Gauntlet thoughts, but still highly relevant to the overall discussion.

(Thread)
First of all: still waiting to hear from @DriveThruRPG and whether they are going to continue to carry his books in their marketplace. I have a feeling they will try to just ride this out in the hopes it will blow over, but I hope I'm wrong. The time to do the right thing is now.
Next, I'm pleased that people read our statement and felt inspired by it. I'm pleased it got some traction. But I must say: I take no joy in any of this. What happened to Mandy was horrible. Reading about all the Zak-related trauma in the ttrpg community is exhausting, miserable.

Codex - Joy 2 is now available in our $4+ Patreon feed! It is one of the most exciting issues we have ever published and I am going to tell you all about it!

(Note: if you pledge this month, you also get the original Codex - Joy!)

patreon.com/gauntlet

(Thread)
Before I begin telling you about the features in Joy 2, I want to say the beautiful, touching cover illustration is by @hominidart
The first feature in Joy 2 is Storm Riders! by @michaelgbarford. It is a hack of World of Dungeons and features illustrations by @seanrunamok. The idea behind the game is you play characters from a 1980s fantasy cartoon (think Masters of the Universe, She-Ra, Thundercats, etc.).

#Thread for reflections, commentary, and snark on the Pre-General Conference briefing in Nashville. This is billed as more “informational” than “conversational” event—so those aspects will be here!

Scroll for the whole thread and hold onto your butts.

First hearing from the Indy Plan promoters.

So we get 20 minutes on this Plan...but now they are saying that all the Indy Plan supporters are now supporting the Protocol.

#UMCGC #PreGC2020 #UMC
The Indy Plan supporters suggest NOT electing new bishops in 2020 because of the upheaval/transitions.

Surely it has NOTHING to do with the wave of progressive/centrist delegates who will shut out any traditionalist bishops in 2020 in every jurisdiction.

ONLINE HARASSMENT, RESERVE MARINES, & MARINE CORPS ORDER 5354.1E... There's some confusion as to whether Marines in the Inactive Ready Reserve (IRR) must obey the Marine Corps order on "Prohibited Activities & Conduct" - SHORT ANSWER IS YES - this #thread gives details. 1/
The case of Major Brent Eisberner, who's currently being investigated by Marine Forces Reserve (MARFORRES) for making harassing comments to a female veteran (see image) highlighted the fact that many people seemed to think nothing could be done about it; but that's not true. 2/
After reporting Eisberner's apparent misconduct to the Commanding General of MARFORRES, I discussed the matter with the Staff Judge Advocate (SJA) and Equal Opportunity Advisor (EOA) for MarForRes in an attempt to answer these four simple questions. 3/
