New Quinns Quest video!! 📺👻🌵 Public Access by the Gauntlet is razor sharp, powerfully strange and enormously thought-provoking. My players are still daydreaming about our campaign, even though it finished six months ago. I think your players will too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLrr...

Of all the things I’ve ever made, nothing has ever topped what I thought was a dumb throwaway tweet about a tub of beans I found in London back May 2023, which then went viral. And is inexplicably doing the rounds yet again.

For all you audio only folks, our Public Access run has just hit the podcast feed. Feels like prescient timing. @jessjewell.bsky.social @masquewren.bsky.social @jasoncordova.bsky.social @fkth.bsky.social @michellicopter.bsky.social

Our next incredible #BHM table, The Bleeding Script, is a one-shot of @darkerhue.bsky.social's Harlem Unbound, an official setting for @chaosium.bsky.social Call of Cthulhu! Catch us live this Friday the 13th at 8p EST. All proceeds support #SadGirlsClub. twitch.tv/tbhalflings

A HUGE congratulations to our man @jwcartwright.bsky.social!!! He's back in the dome and he's bringin' that HARD MAGIC with him!!!

@jwcartwright.bsky.social never letting you live this one down.

Hello Halflings! Hitch a ride to High Stakes this weekend, the first one-shot in the 3BH Black History Month charity event! We are raising money for #SadGirlsClub to destigmatize mental health struggles and offer low or no cost counseling to Black femmes. #charitystream #ttrpg

I promise I didn’t write this myself.... Hugest of thanks to Brian @escapistmag.bsky.social, for writing about It Takes A Village with so much kindness and appreciation. Amazed by how much it resonates with folk! Intrigued? All episodes here: www.YouTube.com/@samantha_be...

FINALLY! A game where I can deceive a man without actually having to deceive a man.

FINALLY! A game that will let me die in a cave without me actually having to die in a cave.

It's Black History Month in the Shire! Join us Fridays & Saturdays in February for four amazing tables, with guest GMs @navaarsnp.bsky.social and @londoncarlisle.bsky.social! All proceeds go toward #SadGirlsClub, an org that provides free or low cost mental health care for Black and brown femmes.

I have a sneaking suspicion that “subscriber” has never watched one of Matt’s videos.

This applies to my Patreon too: do NOT sub from the Patreon app. You pay MORE and I get LESS of it. Apple and Patreon are screwing us up big time, and forcing me to switch to a different billing method that I DO NOT want to use. A day doesn’t pass that I don’t wish I could move my Guild off Patreon🥲

A very small number of folks taking umbrage at my being *checks notes* against doing a fascism are leaving my channel and letting me know about it. Not the sharpest tools in the shed.

Fellow writers: I am deeply saddened to share that if we want the rewards of having written, we must submit to the mortifying ordeal of writing

if they can offer free AI training they could offer free media literacy training too. i know which of those would do more for the public good

Went to Chester Zoo. Finally saw a fire extinguisher in its natural habitat.

OHHHHHHH! I knew Matt and Jason were out here cooking something, but I didn’t think it’d be The Lands Remaining!!!!!! I’ve had the privilege of recording a few bits of the podcast, and I am in love with the descriptions and workings so far. This is gonna be so rad!!!

A little teaser to kick off the week… youtu.be/Xurci565T-k?...

Sound up, as the kids say.

Update, @nurdrocks.bsky.social is back home. Just to be really fucking clear, I found out about this when I saw a person I respect and admire, who I look up to as a creative and community member, getting held down by five fascists on the fucking front page of reddit. Fuck ICE. Keep speaking up.

HMMMMMM... who do i know that is into TTRPGs and going to #PAXEast or in the Boston area by chance ...? 🤔💭

After playing a little special something tonight, I can confirm the new The Between playbooks are absolutely spectacular and if you haven’t preordered this you bloody should.

New Harry Potter just dropped!

Ohhhhhh now this is a treat. Ella made Camlann. Georgia made Holmwood Foundation. Horror and suspense masterpieces, and I say that with massive bias because I’ve been lucky enough to play Death Comes to the Saloon with them both and they’re gorgeous storytelling geniuses. PLEASE SIGN UP 🙏

Hey, this is your reminder that @georgiacooked.bsky.social and I are making The Deepest Dark for #ZineMonth! It's a GM-less, tragic horror ttrpg about getting trapped underground. (If we want to get into Zinetopia, we need 400 followers in the next week.) Please sign up for updates!

Introduce yourself as something that almost killed you: Howdy. I am some dried baked beans that were launched onto the ceiling of a grade II listed building during EdFringe which needed to be chiselled off, 22 ft up, no stepladder, and 3 precariously balanced buckets. Good to still be here.

Today we launched a brand-new podcast! The Lands Remaining Podcast tracks the development of The Lands Remaining TTRPG. The first episode is straightforward enough: What is The Lands Remaining? Listen below or wherever you get podcasts. Please re-post! www.gauntlet-rpg.com/the-lands-re...

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to adequately express what this year has meant to me. The people who’ve made my year, new friends and old, are just brilliant beyond words. So here are some of the things we did, and the supremely talented and gorgeous bunch I got to work, play, and be with:

My 2025 wrapped in one image

In case you hadn't heard, Public Access is *finally* coming to crowdfunding! We're looking to launch early next year (basically once The Between is off to the printers). The Big Man is positively quivering with excitement! Sign up for prelaunch below! www.kickstarter.com/projects/gau...

The Public Access Post Season talkback is now up! Come learn some interesting nuggets of info re: the new edition of the game and a also novel way to turn down drugs at a party. @jessjewell.bsky.social @masquewren.bsky.social @jasoncordova.bsky.social @fkth.bsky.social youtu.be/jIPAAn6X-R0

Updated my phobia list thanks to this AP: - Very big men - Tunnels - Pig Mascots - Arcade Games - self storage lockers - The New Years Eve Ball - Ice cream. Motherfucking ice cream.

And with that, our Public Access campaign is over. So, so proud of this AP and the brilliant people behind it. @jessjewell.bsky.social @masquewren.bsky.social @jasoncordova.bsky.social youtu.be/KMhVKTUSuDs

Alright let’s do this! Listen along for #SolemnVale Of Oak & Holly starting now! pod.link/1550749483/e...

The PENULTIMATE episode of our Public Access campaign is live for patrons RIGHT FREAKING NOW

I've been keeping this to myself but I thought it was time to say, I was let go from my job just before Christmas after moving to a new city with my disabled partner for it🎄🎁 I've popped a few board games and TTRPGs on eBay, you'd be helping me out by treating yourself to one 💖 ebay.us/m/luBkh7

Reposting this to say Matt is probably one of the hardest working folks in TTRPG podcasting, he raises the bar constantly regarding quality and inclusion, and is an absolute joy to play and work with to boot. Also he can’t take compliments. So I’m sure he’ll love this.

Day 8 is @thebadspot.bsky.social Matt is someone who is quick to self deprecation, he's said so to me several times this year. I couldn't disagree more. An incredibly talented performer, making some of the best actual play content anywhere right now.

VOICE ACTORS AND PERFORMERS OF BLUESKY I am casting for 2026 and have some V/O work that needs doing at the start of January. Very quick & easy, but it is PAID, so that is at least something. Interested? Fill out this form, where you will find all the details: forms.gle/EwMTLfjsozrF...

I think about this post constantly

The Lands Remaining… maaaaaaaan, it’s the good shit. Like, the *good* good shit. Just you wait. Or don’t wait: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Fanart! For our Public Access AP! Might also be the first illustration of The Chromatic Desert I’ve seen.

This was so, so good. The Gauntlet community are insanely talented, it is genuinely quite unreasonable. 2 more sessions to go today, good luck to those pitching!

Here we go…
