[IC] Granite Round 2

[strict]

Love the Up, Down, Left, Right keys. How about a straight arrow set to complement the icon mods ? (Like the red direction keys of R1, but in grey.)

+1

Grey straight arrows would definitely get me to buy the bonus pack.

[geniekid]

It would be cool to have a 1.25 "Start" and "Select" key to replace the usual Windows and Menu keys.  Make the keyboard feel a little more like an NES controller, especially with the red Enter

[Matt3o]

I'm not adding any more keys except for some 1u novelty keys. Suggestions welcome

I'd love an onion head 1u key.

How can we get the bonus packs? I thought the drop already ended and that they already sent their order over to SP? I'm curious because I had a bunch of kits ordered and I really was intrigued with the other colorful bonus keys

Matt's going to run it separately.  Not sure if he mentioned where it'd be (MD, GH, etc.).

Looking great. I can't think of many 1u suggestions. Maybe a code key to go with the "any key" and "panic"? Ohh, and maybe a "SysRq" key for the mono legend users who want to be a little more nerdy than print screen. If you are running Linux then the key actually has a use - forcing a disk write + shutdown, etc in case of an otherwise frozen system. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key)

I would totally buy this bonus pack 100% =) hope we get news on where this GB will be ran soon

Would totally grab a few sets if they were backlit.

[Synjin]

They most likely wont be. I remember someone asking for ones with windowed caps as well but it never went through because it would have the kits costing a lot more.

[Tindron]

How about removing the 'KEY' from the ANY KEY key?  It seems a bit redundant.

[Data]

But "Any Key" is kind of the joke.

[tyvar1]

The any from the any key is the joke
Edit: wopsie, Data said it.

[tyvar1]

I really like how the bonus kit looks like so far!

[Lubed Up Slug]

Where are the bonus kits being sold?  Massdrop? GH? SP?

[drrtyrokka]

I think matt3o hasn't made a statement about that, yet.

For novelty keys it's still the flask...
Come on matt, what's wrong with that key? :/

Other suggestions for novelty keys:

• Python Logo
• Trashcan
• Ubuntu Logo
• Stickman
• GNU Logo
• Linux Eyes
• Coffee
• Ying-Yang
• Medipack
• Peace
• Four color deck (one key each): black spades|green clubs|red hearts|blue diamonds

Another two points:
The bonus kit lacks icons. I only got icon mods on all ordered sets and there is just too much text for me in the bonus kit...
And how about more light gray keys? Is this an option?

[Tindron]

But "Any Key" is kind of the joke.

The joke is that it's an "Any" key.  An "Any Key" key is like having an "Enter Key" key.

If there's Autobots you gotta add Decepticons, too.   

Always rootin' for the baddies.

Personally, I'd be ok with taking out one of the other ones and adding in a Decepticon logo but I dunno if others would be into that. 

[tyvar1]

My suggestions that I really want:
XDA developers icon

Reddit icon

[Matt3o]

we can't use reddit logo

[tyvar1]

To bad fingers crossed for xda icon then!

[Data]

Oh there's Transformers?  Now I have to buy that too.

y u do dis?

Dear Matt: I just became aware of the bonus pack thing, and I have read no more keys may be added, however in the round 2 there was no second shift key in 2.25u. If the idea is to complement the sets offered in the round this key was actually missing.


Thank you in advance for your attention.

I requested a quote.

The kit as it is now it's way too expensive. I have to reduce it a bit, sorry guys.

Matt: Thank you very much, and congratulations on the success of the set.

[drrtyrokka]

Add more icons and get rid of all that text

How much is that too expensive btw??

Dear Matt.


If the price of the set is to high at it is, it may be splited in icons and text keys subsets, and that may allow a great reduction in the price of each one. Besides, users with no icons would not have use for them, and Vs.


Thank you again for your attention.

[barihunk]

More novelty keys and fewer odd sized (actually useful) keys? IIRC the 1u keys are much cheaper than the larger keys and I personally would love those novelty keys posted above - autobots!

splitting in text and icons wouldn't half the price (just to be clear). Also, I will probably handle this personally and I'm not sure I want to handle too many options.

Is there anyway we could get a novelty pack that is just a bunch of different space invaders?

Like these:
http://cdn.instructables.com/FWI/9952/FTO54DZH/FWI9952FTO54DZH.MEDIUM.jpg

Just the bad guys though 

I would buy multiple packs of that and I think there's quite a few other people on here who would be interested as well.

edit: or at least add these little guys to the bonus pack

Any info about adding XDA developers icon key?
With the Android os logo it would be awesome to have that key next to it

I would need permission to use that, wouldn't I? Isn't it a forum community?
