Has anyone else noticed more gauntlet drops recently? This week I won a TKK from an end of gauntlet reward, a Mariner and a Balok from a streak, and someone in my fleet just won Mariner from an end of gauntlet. I wonder if TP increased gauntlet odds for a short period before announcing a new crew. I won my first Archer the day before Mariner was announced last time.
A few weeks ago I got my 5th copy of Red Angel then a few days later another copy of Mirror Mariner. Typically for me I’ll go for months in between gauntlet drops.

I believe the same happened to me as well, definitely less than a week getting those two.

Not a peep since lucking into Mirror Mariner the very first gauntlet after she was introduced. Still no TKK or FFA even though I've started playing much more in earnest than for some time.
Everyone's on their own RNG rollercoaster, they just hit the peaks and troughs at different times.

You stole my luck! Unfortunately, no; my experience is different. I've seen no change. And this randomness, or to be more exact, the full reliance on randomness, is one of my biggest frustrations with the Gauntlet (obviously not unique to me). In fact, this week I had one of the most frustrating Gauntlets I've ever taken part in: constant walls of Balok at 65% and Red Angel at 25%, and almost nothing else. I used about 4K merits to find fights I could compete to win.
My RNG lately has been standard, which is to say effectively zero. That said, I am making a complete mockery of my current Gauntlet. I registered late due to work and then did absolutely nothing for 25 hours, spotting the field a massive head start. Then I started playing, no spending, no ducking tough fights to keep streaks alive, just bravery. Here is how things stood a few hours ago!
Well I had some good luck on a standard x10 pull. I do not know if I got a gold on the 10x before. I know I have gotten a straight drop (before they starting doing beholds) of a gold on single standard pull, a long while ago.
Hopefully Q will be back before the OE starts tonight......
It's been just about 14 hours now.
I start gauntlet today for the OE. And, then wait until the OE starts to fight my first round. I like to have two separate gauntlets for OE. So still have tomorrow (it usually has to be an hour before the end of the previous gauntlet. Because if the gauntlet does not have enough people playing it does not start) , if Gauntlet is not available today.
Edit: Sorry I forgot still will have 2 gauntlets no matter what. I just like to have the first gauntlet end on the first day.

I do the same but the Gauntlet would have reset Saturday 8PM Eastern and then again Monday 8PM Eastern - 4 hours before the start of the OE.
Well I for one think if they get in the office this morning and see how long the Gauntlet has been down, a free copy of First Flight Archer for everyone to smooth things over wouldn't be a bad idea

Caretaker. I will only accept the Caretaker. This is non-negotiable for me.

Sounds good to me! I will take any crew I can get.

There should be copy of 1 🌟 Weasely in everyone's in-game mail, by now. Make sure y'all got your copy.

The universe conspired to not allow this to happen until its occurance messed up other plans!
Good...but where's Black? See? You're not done.
Sadly though I still don’t have a copy of Archer.

Can‘t confirm this. Drops are as bad as usual.
Got an „old“ behold of Mariner (1*), Balok (unowned) and Angel (also unowned).
Took Angel.
EDIT: OE is tomorrow. I watched pre-season football all day yesterday, and woke up thinking today was Monday.
It's been just about 14 hours now.
