An update on Gauntlet Hangouts . . .
I’m happy with how things are progressing on Gauntlet Hangouts. We presently have nine upcoming events on the calendar. All but one of them are full. Some more TGI Thursday and Story Game Sunday are going up soon. We’re also doing a roundtable discussion Hangout called What is a D6?, so be on the lookout for that. I’m thinking late-September.
For our UK friends (Eadwin Tomlinson, Isa Wills, one or two others), what days/times work well for you? I’d like to find a way to get you in more games.
Play by Post still isn’t a thing yet. I’m not sure when it will be (if ever), but I’m looking into options. What I really need is for someone to be in charge of it. Like, Gauntlet in charge of it. In other words, no dicking around with it. Execution is king!
A number of people have asked if we are going to start recording games. It is a good question. I think the answer is ‘yes,’ but I need to figure out how it works. There is also a concern about self-censorship, but we can cross that bridge on a game-by-game basis. For example, I love The Final Girl, but I’m not sure I want a recording of how we play it to exist on the Internet.
Also, not just UK friends. I think we have podcast listeners from various parts of Europe.

I am from Germany. 😉
For me registering weeks ahead when the games were posted was more of a hinderance in joining one than the times they were starting. On weekdays I would say starting as early as possible would make it easier for europeans.

Love the discussion title.
I tried Dungeon World before but no one went for it. I have been thinking about starting another play by post, probably using cheat your own adventure. what are some other record light story games that might work well for play by post?

Daniel Fowler Cheat Your Own Adventure would be great. Mostly because it would be fun to go back and see all the different choices that were made.

I’ll echo Eadwin Tomlinson It would be great to jump on a hangout game with the community.
