You are correct, we have never had a KOTM winner be a topre board. We have had many make their way through to the voting stage, but never any winners.

hopefully with the upcoming custom realforce cases coming this year, that will change

It's odd not to see a kurplop's keyboard in the list.
I agree. Hope to see him on this list next year :)

All fantastic keyboards :)

Huge thanks to the five gentlemen who voted the Toad, it means a lot to me.

Also 93 members voted, which is not too shabby (as long as you don't compare it to the 6143 active members in the last month, or the 4168 active members in the last week, or even the 1802 active members today *sigh*).
:p

I'll be honest, I'm happy at 93 participants. We've never had that many for any of the KOTM votes, so 93 for me is a great number. I hope it's a sign of things to come.
Now the winner has been decided, I will get the stickers printed from Infiniti, sent to me and then I will ship them out to the winners. PMs and a post in the announcement thread will be up soon.

So the vote is already closed? From the first post, I thought it was still open.
The first post was finally edited on the 4th of February and at the bottom it stated that it was open for ten days. So I don't think the OP could be much clearer.

Maybe another 900 will get my attention!
