[GB] GMK Olivia++ | Orders Closed

GMK Olivia++: Ending December 31st, 2019
https://oliviaplus.plus



After much waiting, I'm excited to announce that Olivia++ is starting GB on Dec 1st! The "++" in Olivia++ is a shorthand used in programming to indicate incrementing by 1. This not only applies to this being the second round of the keyset being offered, but also the fact that we have a Dark Alternative set for those interested in a monotone version. 

Colors

I will be using the same colors that were used in the first run. 
RAL 040 80 20 
RAL 000 20 00 
GMK CP

Kits



The base kit using the classic R1 colorway.



The base kit using the new monocolor version of the colorway.



A small kit filled with "<2" in every size you desire.



By popular demand, this kit has been reworked to support alpha color spacebars for the Alice and similar layouts. This kit provides compatibility with the majority of 40% layouts.



This kit provides basic compatibility for ISO keyboards.

 

All the accent spacebars, in every size possible



The perfect kit to ordain your keyboard with a little bit more personality.

Collaborations



For the first time ever, I'm working with RAMA.WORKS to offer a PVD Rose Enter keycap with the same design as the Olive "hihihi" keycap.



Two Olivia++ deskpads for light and dark are offered to accompany your keyset.

FAQ

Quote
Could you add X key, or X kit to kit Y?

While I would ideally add every possible key for every possible layout, a balance has to be struck between the affordability for the buyer & the compatibility for each dollar spent. Adding to that with the complexity of individual set MOQs, the current offering is my best attempt at providing the most at the least for you all. I apologize if what is currently offered doesn't match with the keys you need :(

Quote
Why 1.5u Delete instead of Backspace?

Because of the size of 1.5u, there are only a few different options of legends + icon design. None of them looked better than Delete to me. Since that is also the legend on the HHKB where the 1.5u placement is inspired from, I am happy with that decision.

Special Thanks

Many thanks to Zambumon, RAMA Team, and the awesome vendors who will be listing it!

That deskmat looks great! Will have to debate with myself if I can justify joining the GB thought, specially after joining so many other GMK GBs last months.
Glad either case to see a R2 of Olivia, there was clearly a high demand for it!

It is not even officially the end of day one for NovelKeys (still have 4 1/2 hours) but I wanted to share some early day one numbers cause this is crazy.

No Extras Included. Most proxies updated

Light Core: 501
Dark Core: 222
Novelties: 95
Extension: 115
ISO: 24
Spacebars: 302
Hihihi: 91

If the numbers I have are correct for Oblivion, we may beat all of Oblivions day 1 numbers. Oblivion had 4 base kits that sold a total of 739 on day one. We are currently at 723 between light and dark. With 4 1/2 hours left, and at the rate the base kits have been selling, I believe we will beat that record. This is truly amazing.

We are so thankful for everyone who joined on day 1 and to those who will join.

On NovelKeys (keep up the great work Mike) ETA on the deskmat is March 2020 while the caps is on April 2020. If I bundle both in one order, will the deskmat just be held until the caps are ready to be shipped or will it ship separately?

I believe it's set up so that you can't have both in your cart.

By that theory, you will have to purchase it separately.

They are increasing their production line in January, so I don't think this will back them up any.

I got two lights + 1 dark. I've seen several people buying more than one.
