How can I roll back Jumpgate??

When creating a new game, I must have accidentally hit the button converting it to use Jumpgate-- it was completely unintentional and I do NOT want Jumpgate!  How can I revert it out of Jumpgate?

Hi Shard! Unfortunately, a Jumpgate game cannot be converted to Classic, Nor can assets be Transmogrified from Jumpgate to Classic. You can transfer characters backward by using the Character Vault, but that's so laborious, I'd only use it for PCs.
I'm not sure if there's a warning in the Jumpgate process, however it might be worthwhile to add something like a suggestion to create a copy of your pre-Jumpgate game, and convert it to Jumpgate, so that your original is relatively sacrosanct if you decide Jumpgate isn't for you. I did this, but only because I wasn't sure if Jumpgate might not lose something in translation, so I didn't want to risk it.
When converting a game to Jumpgate, Roll20 does create a "Legacy backup" copy of the game. Personally, I recommend manually creating a backup copy before converting, just in case the automation has a hick-up.

I personally recommend duplicating the game to Jumpgate rather than using the conversion process. I have seen more issues with the conversion process than with duplicating the game to Jumpgate.
