Okay boys and girls, after reaching out to you, the people, for ideas on how to choose between our two tied winners, we are doing a very quick rerun of the poll with the two tied candidates. This poll will be open for just four days (until 14:11 Feb 1st GH time) so as not to delay the Keyboard of the Year poll by too much. As a reminder, your two tied boards are:

affershiem's mec.numpad



Very concise build thread is here

And ghostjuggernaut's TKL No.1

Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

Voted.

Easy 'cause the one I voted for in the main thread is still in the list.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Same. Pretty much just a recast of my original vote.

Probably all the same people voting though.

It's pinned in the Keyboard of the Month section, i.e. KOTM Announcement Thread.
