And no posts to "Great Finds" or any advertisement of anything for sale whatsoever.If CC raised his retail prices to, say, $100/$150/$250/$500, then he would be the one making the profit, not the greedy person doing the flipping immediately after they acquired one, because they got lucky in a drawing or were fast with an email.As I said, the culture has to change from EK/CC themselves. Wither either raising the prices or approach it from a completely different angle, a la card collecting. You buy packs trying to complete a set, and may or may not get an insert of varying odds. Perhaps, randomize the giveaway with a sale of a product/key set from EK itself then, rather than a listing and drawing for an individual key.Or make it where monthly they just go through the website and pick active members to have the opportunity of buying one. That way there would be 0% chance of people having multiple entries since you can't have more than one account and you would also weed out the crazyness and hype there is from winning/not winning. It would be more of a reward for being on GH, maybe even bump the prices to 50-60, why not.GH isn't the only market for these just FYI. People from all over the world and other forums buy these also.

From my count there were two others that said they won the Gumrot. With me there are three. I'm wondering how many else are there

Back on topic.I WON!! I got a GumRot orc monster thing. Pretty awesome. No way I'm selling something this unique. IIRC ClickClack is a special FX professional right? Makes sense seeing as how cool these things look. Can't wait to see what other designs he comes up with that aren't Skulls.
^^ I can't make myself go there but I'm assuming all the 'guests' watching things are mostly redditors

You deserve it. I know you'll hold it and love it and caress it and use it. It could also look really interesting with that case I just sent you.
Most of these are probably going to lurkers of every ilk, from here, reddit, etc.Those people contribute nothing to the community. Zero. You decide for yourself whether that makes them better or worse than forum members who openly (or covertly) flip them for profit.

Are you saying I don't deserve them because I only have 10 posts here?
unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)
Let me ask a question of you, if I may. Why do you not want to interact with other forum members? You joined this forum in July, but only have 11 posts to date.

That gumrot is amazing. I wonder how much those will go for here on the forums.
My wife I a also push her button . But now she have her button push by a different men. So I buy a keyboard a mechanicale, she a reliable like a Fiat.
Hey I got the Oktoberfest one! My first clack It looks pretty cool! Are these pretty special in terms of clacks or are the skulls really the only sought after clacks?
Blanks are considered to be in the low tier of clacks, but I think CF has done some really cool stuff with blanks like the Julysicle and Oktoberfest. Just enjoy the artwork in the colors of the clack, think about that beer and popsicle sitting on your Esc

It's a good width! If it's half-width it's too narrow, and full-width is too wide.
