I hope the said vendor would sell it on a competitive price. If not, I would gladly support this IC and be run on massdrop to achieve that same price on GMK Carbon. I've been using solarized colorway on my favorite IDE for years now. Hope I could see it sooner. :)

when and where can buy GMK Penumbra ? :p :p :p

It'll be sold through a large vendor who is part of gh and promoted through ctrl alt shortly

What are the odds of it having the whiter alphas? I know solarized would be more yellow, but damn did Penumbra ever look nice with white alphas. <3

that would be so amazing. definitely in for that if possible.

To answer your question, yes the render isn't accurate.  The alphas will be yellow like the OG set.  Don't worry.  Not sure if there will be a set for the white alphas yet, will keep you updated.

As this guy stated, he will be stopping his plans as proof is being provided to him via a moderator shortly who is speaking to both myself and the vendor involved now

As the information involved is sensitive we would rather share it with a mod than some random guy

How many sets?

500 initially

I will gladly back down if you can prove anything is happening on your end.

I have no need to send you any proof, I'm trying to do you a favour to save you wasting any more time


However if proof is that important to you, I'd be prepared to share it with a member of the moderation team for you to confirm with

Hi Bunny, do you have a ballpark figure for the selling price?

I'm sure you would, but as mentioned that information isn't public yet and we have no way of knowing if you would share it, the evidence shown in this thread suggests you wouldn't treat it with the proper respect so it went to a moderator who was online

If you want a second person to confirm, I'd be happy to do so.


Assuming everything is as it has been stated, the set Bunny is talking about will likely show up before this set gets off the ground, simply because of the GMK production queue if nothing else. I don't see how anyone loses anything by watching and waiting for a bit. If you're not happy with what comes out, why not launch the IC after you know what you're competing with?

Fulfilled 13000 orders since Jan 2015, got about 70 outstanding old ones and about 30 outstanding hyperfuse

This set is part of a fundraising effort to fix toxic

To fix what we had on hand we have just switched the person shipping and it's rolling out

Why not fulfill those 100 outstanding orders before spending tens of thousands of dollars on 500 sets of this GMK Penumbra, not even running it as a GB? I really don't see how that helps the problem.

Because of a couple of trolls I'll lay out very clearly what is happening

Another vendor is running some of ctrl alts sets through gmk currently, they are buying them outright and selling them once on hand and giving us a cut of the profits, this money will be used to fix the outstanding old stuff we have while not taking time away from.fullfilling that, this is a positive step to fix a **** situation we were left in by someone else

Apparently what these people want above is for me to dump the old orders and just leave and hide, rather than stay and make progressive steps to fix them

I'd like to ask everyone in this thread (on both sides of the issue) to take a breather.

Yes, there were mistakes made in the handling of some past buys. And they're trying to make it right. All any one individual can do is make their own decisions with their own money.

At the same time, nobody is obligated to wait on moving forward with an IC just because a similar set is in production. There's nothing inherently wrong with this IC.

What's not okay is spewing anger back and forth and going off topic. This isn't an appropriate place to be complaining about ctrl[alt] -- this isn't their set and it isn't their thread. If you don't want to support ctrl[alt] for whatever reason, you can pledge your support here, but there's no need for going after Bunny and the rest of them. Let's not take this thread any further away from the Solarized IC. Any further off-topic posts or personal attacks will be removed.

Should their posts be removed from the thread then, since they would be pretty off topic to the point of even stealing potential customers?

No, saying there may be a similar set in the works is relevant information. I also think it's important to leave some of the context surrounding it, so people can make their own decision on who to support. The problem is when it stops being about the set and starts becoming about the issues that people have with each other. It's fine to have those conversations (so long as you aren't breaking TOS), but this thread isn't the appropriate place for them.

Between this thread's "progression" and the "GMK Toxic" IC a couple a threads over, kinda feels like an ambush of Monsieur Lake.

Just sayin'...   :(

Being asked for proof and responding with "Bless" isn't exactly polite....

i agree i just found it a laughable response, however after thinking about it i decided to provide proof, the mods received it and relayed it here and he didnt care or stand by his word so what was the point

i shouldnt need to provide proof but did anyway, at no point did i come in here and say you cant do this, i was trying to save the guy some time

if his motivation was to get this set made, then its happening, clearly that isnt his motivation

As Bunny said, if this set is being made, then I'm happy. I just hope the price, availability, and options are there to make it impossible for me to say no. If it looks good then I may sell my SA set.

1,before bunny have said this is happening with GMK ,i almost provide the cream yellow i find at http://www.pantone.com/color-finder
His reminder of that prevent me from doing more unnecessary things.although i have found two cream yellow approaching to this set in my perspective. :p

2,The color-way of penumbra in SA has been  first arranged by bunny , even there is no color-way copyright protection. It would be better  show respect and pm to let bunny know that re-arrangement or rather similar color-arrangement will be launched in new GB.
3, Some unfulfillment happens in bunny's last GBs, however, he is a reliant GB starter for me and the motivation that in this IC is proof itself
4, GMK penumbra or GMK solarizd , will sold at some time if at an acceptable markup , i could afford them ,i def in .

OP should just go ahead and put his valuable time into making this set happen. Ctrl Alt still have .7% of orders outstanding therefore they are incapable of doing anything good. There is no legal protection to Ctrl Alt so lets just abuse that and create something for the community!

/s

I'm actually very happy to see what Ctrl Alt are doing, and I have the utmost trust in them. Bunny and others that run Ctrl Alt are amongst some of the people I trust the most to run anything now.

This set is already happening with gmk

The colours are being matched now, it's being produced at the end of august and will be for sale as soon as it arrives

That would have been known if you had the courtesy to contact me
So shipping will be, like, 2019 then?
