## Technical Questions
### Oh no I just signed up and I have no idea where to even begin!
Don't worry somebody on the team will reach out to you with the next steps?
It's very unlikely that someone will point to you and tell you to do something. A lot of our work is done by *personal initiative*. See an idea you like? Think of something fun but aren't sure where it fits in? Connect with other members of the event team and see what you can make happen! * 

\*Might change depending on how/if we tackle the event mentor idea

### What's GitHub and why do I need to use it?
Put simply [GitHub](https://github.com/) is a platform for **Git**, a form of [version control](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/what-is-version-control) used by many open source projects including this one. Git makes collaboration between many individuals much easier to track and manage while ensuring nobody accidentally overwrites anothers changes.

### How do I use GitHub?
Follow this [tgstation guide](https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Setting_up_git).

### I want to help but I'm not a mapper/coder/spriter!
Do you enjoy making promotional art? Have some spare change to go towards the causes we support?

Even things like telling a friend about our events or just showing up and being a good player are welcome and encouraged!
