[GB] (COMPLETED!) Nantucket Selectric

[skullydazed]

Wait what... INTERNATIONAL TIPPED! What a pleasant surprice, there was like 7 orders or something yesterday!

Someone must've bought out the rest:D Remaining anonymous, or was it the designer? Just tried (for science) setting mine from 1 to 0 and in the graph it seemed at 24.. so we're tightly tipping.) Hope it encourages other people to join in now (maybe so that the tipping guy can decrease his huge buy order).

It looks like someone ordered 10 sets. I've reached out to him to make sure it wasn't a mistake when ordering. However, assuming it wasn't it looks like everyone will be able to build the Nantucket Selectric board of their dreams!

My dream setup from paint (except key legends should be European): ISO+European 60% layout look http://imgur.com/a/ouGmt
Couldn't get the shark mods to work, we'll see in person. You've outdone yourself with the yellow helm duo!

Edit: thanks to whoever bought those, hope it's not a scam and you've got plenty of funds

It wasn't a scam, just a mistake. He meant to only order one. However, this does show that we are closer than we think to tipping that set! Even after adjust his sale back down to 1 set we're still at 17 orders. Only 8 more people and we can tip it!

Nvm, still good news.) your yesterday's post to mechmarket might have revived it..

Just keep posting it to /r/mechmarket and /r/mechanicalkeyboards until everyone buys it. MiTo has been advertising his stuff daily. You should do the same.

Let's do a meetup on Nantucket Island so it gets stickied at the top.

I can only repost every 3 days, but I plan to do so at a rate of every 4-5 days. I don't want to contribute to ad fatigue.  )

Any info about red blanks (row 2-3-4) are they close to 25?

[IrPOWERranger]

Would I be right in making the assumption that these use Cherry stabilisers, not Costar?

I'm not sure if you're in the wrong thread but these are keycaps. But just in case, to my knowledge, keycaps are not restricted by which stabilizers are used.

Definitely the right thread. For some reason I was under the impression that key sets were made to fit either cherry or costar stabilisers. I guess not! Thanks.

Any info about red blanks (row 2-3-4) are they close to 25?

I haven't tried to analyze the blank orders yet. Right now I'm working on a way to figure out which MOQ a set has hit so we can have a more easily understood realtime data source. Here's a preview of what it looks like right now:

I'm hoping that by this evening I'll have added calculations for which MOQ was actually hit, and how many are needed to reach the next MOQ.

I wish there was a way for us to convince SP to make this ahead of all the other sets

Got $40k I can borrow? I'll put the order in tomorrow.

I created two new graphs today:





These only update when I run my reporting script, but I'm working on setting it up in cron now. I'll probably update every 20 or 30 minutes.

[wodan]

Very nice visualization with those new graphs. I'm just very nervous the european kit isn't gonna make it. Can't justify getting this without das Ü.

I agree. This visualization is great! You're so close on so many sets. It'll definitely tip before the buy ends.

Thank you for this wonderful design, the colour combination is excellent. Just joined, also added 6.25u Yellow Spacebar. Cheers!

[Jolikki]

Edit: Nope, that's going to interfere to much with backspace and the other keys in row 1.

This might be covered in the IC thread, but what's the SA profile for the numpad?
I'm thinking of ordering that one and a couple of blanks and put on the number row on my TKL in case the european set doesn't reach MOQ.

[TheBestUkester]

Noticed when I ordered while ago and thought it was just me, but the homing icons on the Google form are missing "F".


Looking forward to this to drop!

Will the Ergodox Kit be made regardless of order count?

I have stared at that so many times and did not notice. Good thing harlw did the official mockup that SP will be working from.

Thanks for pointing it out, I've fixed the image on the form.

[skullydazed]

Ergodox orders keep trickling in. I would be very surprised if it didn't manage to tip.

[Durahk]

Had to think about this one quite a bit with all the other GB's going on, but count me in! 

[acme01]

Thanks for doing a special Planck keyset (y)

Can you buy just the Amity island kit without the base kit? I love the mods, but I don't need a whole other SA set.

You can!

If anyone from Norway, Sweden, Denmark or Sweden is interested in sharing the shipping, I am trying to organize a single order for a few people.
The idea is that people who wan't to share the shipping will note it to the organizer and he will make a single shipment to me that I will repack and ship out. I can ship packages for free at my workplace.

Then you would only be charges how ever little of the shipment that would be your part. If we are 8 people you will pay 1/8 of the shipment cost.
The downside is that you will wait a few more days than otherwise, and you will have to trust a random Danish dude with your goods.

Let me know what you think.

Happy Monday Everyone!

Later today (after I hear from my email host, actually) I will be sending out summary emails to everyone. This email will show what you've committed to, what has tipped, and give you an idea about what your costs may be. If you want to make sure it will come through please make sure "info@clueboard.co" is in your address book, so it isn't caught by your spam filter.

In other news we have a fantastic number of commitments. So far 254 people have signed up (not including cancellations) and a total of 1581 sets have been committed to. Every one of you is awesome, and I can't wait to see what everyone does with this design.

Awesome! I'm still clenching my thumbs hoping that the EU kit will tip... Any clue(haha...) on when the site will go live?

[rotciveel]

Are there any renders of the base kit w/ Cape Cod or Amity add-ons?

[skullydazed]

I don't have time to copy and paste from the good looking render right now, but here's some examples with the cape cod kit.

Yay! Clueboard.co is literally in my top 8 websites on chrome since I've been looking if it's open so often; I'll place an order as soon as it goes live!

I've started sending out reminder emails to let everyone know what they've committed to and what has tipped. Unfortunately mandrill has a 25 email/hour limit for new accounts, so it may take a while for everyone's reminder to go out. Add "info@clueboard.co" to your address book to avoid having it hit your spam box.

Got the email earlier, reminds me of an automated weekly bank account update. In a good way.

[skullydazed]

If you ordered at 2/1/2016 14:40:32 PST and your name is Joe please send me a PM. Your email address bounced and I need to get a corrected one.

[Tanthanis]

Looks like we need a few more for the ErgoDox set. Would love to have this one. Let's get the word out.

[Skribbles]

Why SA 1-1-2-3-4-4 instead of SA 3-1-2-3-4-3?

Hey guys, new here.. can someone explain what this means?

[skullydazed]

We're talking about the row profiles there. It's probably best explained with a photo:



Notice how there's a very pronounced curve to the keys? That's a result of the varrying row profiles. In that picture you can see a profile of 1-2-3-4-4. On a TKL or full size board you have one more row for the F-keys, which is why you get 1-1-2-3-4-4. Having a set that's 1-1-2-3-4-3 would mean a flat bottom row, instead of curved up the way this is.

Ahh, I see. Thanks for the explanation!

[JadedRabbit]

Whelp. I just dedicated to buying it. This set is too gorgeous to pass up. (Now to actually order a Pok3r. . .) Congratz on tipping me past lurk mode.

[Vimto]

Hope ergodox makes it

Any stat updates about blanks? Since some of them are already present in other sets, for example 1U R3 and 1U R4 blue blanks in Plank set, will these be automatically available regardless of blank key orders?

[tstackhouse]

Just saw my reminder email, definitely cleared up a misunderstanding on my part on the google form.  Are those going to be sent at regular intervals?

I haven't looked at the blank orders yet. I'll try to do that in the next couple days.

Yes, I'll send another one next monday, and then a final one a day or two before the end.

[SlashCamp]

Only 6 more for Eu to tip!! If we get stupid close to the tipping point on the 20th I might just buy another one. At what time does the orders stop on the 21st?

I saw this at reddit, I suppose it's the same real time graph as the first one in the OP, though with mouse hover showing numbers, was quite useful before skully posted the "To MOQ" graph (though that is not real time):

I can't buy another International, only a student here:D I apologise to other non-ISO users that we're spamming this forum so much with the International drama..

I'm not bother by the "spam." You guys are raising awareness for your child kits; I'm rooting for you! You're almost there! 

More reddit posts!

I'm in for this. It's always possible to sell it later.
Where in Sweden do you live?

Got a second eu+iso+base kit after I realized I have far too many specialty keys for a single keyboard
