In for a base, midnight and blocks. Hopefully the artisan too ;) Will the people who won the raffle just be emailed by the email they purchased with? Sorry, I'm sure you are sick of answering questions about the damn artisan, lol.

EDIT: Also my first post and first group buy, huzzah!

Welcome to the madness!

Thanks, first board on the way! Maybe technically second, I've had a Ducky Shine 2 that's on its last legs (half the LEDs not working, CTRL not working), so it's time to move on.

Nephlock, if you're taking suggestions for keycaps to add to the base when this hits 1,000, I'd love to see an R3 PgUp and R4 PgDn.

If I plan on ordering the cable and deskmat on novel keys do I need to do it on separate order for each one?

Yes. Each item ships from a separate place and at separate times. This is what causes the need for individual orders

@nephlock

Would it be possible to make a rendering of metropolis with a red keyboard?

Im trying to see if this keyboard will match well:

Unfortunately rendering for this set is completed, so we won’t be able to provide any additional ones on request. Looking at that board though, it has a more classic red whereas metros red has a little more orange in it. On the whole it would probably still look great on that board, and would just come down to how much variance you’ll allow in the reds matching

Quick update as we come down the last leg of the buy!

4/22 - numbers
Base - 823
Midnight - 186
Signs - 578
Blocks - 391

We are SO close to 1,000 base kits! Here is what we have in store should we hit 1,000 base kits sold:
  • If we make it to 1,000 base kits sold, I'll be beefing up the base kit a bit with a few additional caps! Caps are still undetermined, but should we hit this goal i'd love to hear what you think! Possibilities could be extended compatibility caps, additional accents, or some novelties added into the base.
  • If that wasn't enough, Novelkeys will be also be giving one lucky order their base kit free of charge. BLESS.
  • BUT WAIT! There's more! Spread the word, and show your enthusiasm. We'll be giving one lucky winner a free Metropolis base kit. Enter by filling out this form



Outside of the stretch goals, Novelkeys has graciously awarded the first TWO winners of the artisan raffle a free ride! He'll be picking up the Keyforge tab for you, and all you have to do is enjoy the cap!

 :eek:  :eek:  :eek:

Big thanks to all of you here in the thread for the support in making this a stellar GB!

Nope. The Keyforge form will stay open until April 30th so that everyone has a chance to get their entry/order # in, and raffle will occur after that has closed.

There was some misinformation floating around that raffles had happened already. This was caused by a few other artisans that had raffle sales on their own that weren't tied to the GB.  :thumb:

There is not, as they are still yet to be made. I have been told that due to the complexity of the colorway, it will definitely be less than were available for simpler runs (like terminal or taro)

All the more satisfying to have alongside the set!

In all honesty, the pics of the keyforge artisan in the metropolis colorway makes me salivate. Congrats to whoever wins one.

I can answer the cable question. The cable can be ordered after the group buy through my site/form. Ordering now allows you to get in on the group buy pricing.

And for the other part I asked the same question to novel keys. You will need to make separate orders for cable/deskmat/keycaps as they will not have the same ship times.

Definitely! While not a part of the group buy, additional aviation device ends can be ordered anytime on my form. If there is any confusion when ordering, it's best to reach me at support@spaztikcables.com.
