Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight and I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back on the best user-created works from the Giant Bomb community! Whelp, that was a month! It's crazy to think the month of April is officially behind us, but that is indeed the case. With everything that is going on in the world, I did not think my sense of time would be this thoroughly messed up. Hopefully the rest of you have been doing well enough. We have a handful of housekeeping items that I think you will enjoy, so, without further ado, let;s jump into it!
- Giant Bomb is hosting a premium membership sale! The sale will go until the end of May, and any new subscribers will help keep the flow of awesome content from the Giant Bomb staff during Lockdown 2020!
- Abby's Monopoly stream ended up raising almost $8,000 for the United Nations Foundation! If you haven't donated and can, get on that! They streamed four hours of Monopoly-based madness for your entertainment!
- Jan was a guest on the "99 Questions" podcast and if you wanted to know more about them, including journey to Giant Bomb, give it a listen!
- As detailed during the latest Devcast, which you should listen to regardless, the engineers want to explore the site's video player options in the coming weeks. So, be aware that not every Lockdown 2020 stream will be hosted on Twitch.

Anything can happen in this piece of garbage masquerading as a video game!
