Was keen on joining the buy for this set earlier on, but will probably skip based on how things were handled with Leviathan and massdrop.

Boycotting a set because of something one person said affects a lot more people than that one person. Please don’t make rash decisions because everyone else is. Enjoy will not be “running the groupbuy”, but rather just designed it. After that, the project will be handed over to many others to handle all the logistics and labor work to actually make the set happen. Those are the people you will be  affecting.

I'm not sure the logic really makes sense here. Enjoy acted out, unwarranted and the community doesn't want to support that. No one is trying to boycott every person that has been involved with this set, but it makes sense for everyone to be skeptical of Enjoy running this groupbuy and supporting him in the community. It's unfortunate that other people may be affected by this, but that doesn't mean the rest of us have to take a risk.

What he’s saying is that Enjoy is simply the designer, the vendors are the ones who will be running the actual buy. The risk you’re taking isn’t with Enjoy, it’s with the vendors who will be running it. Aside from making color decisions, Enjoy won’t be handling your money or ensuring that you receive what you buy, the vendors handle that.

huge agree on this one

people aren't boycotting the vendors, they're boycotting the designer

the vendors just happen to be caught in the crossfire

not our fault that they choose to work with someone that acted out and caused this reaction against themself

And I think that some people (myself included) see that even the "simple designer's" words and actions can effect the success of a group buy. Sucks for the partners but business is business and the designer's images effects the general image of the product just as much as the vendors would.

I don't think people are too concerned about who is running the buy/handling the money, but more about supporting a designer and their actions. When you support a designer and their keyset you are bringing their hard work and vision to life. If you are a aspiring keyset designer then I imagine that it would be a big deal to have one of your concepts actually come to life and have hundreds of people enjoy it.
In this case, Enjoy has taken away OCM's chance at realizing that goal with Leviathan and supporting Waves means you are doing so at the expense of Leviathan.

I understand that Enjoy isn't going to be the vendor, but I don't think it makes much of a difference. Enjoy is still going to be involved in the process and that's the risk. Any number of things could happen and the rest of us would suffer.

EDIT:
Not to mention I think the main problem people have is not wanting to support the kind of behavior that Enjoy did

Things like that don't just "go away".  The dude lashed out at another designed and totally shelved another project a lot of people were starting to gain interest in.  That's not just forgotten and moved on from.

Well, boycotting and demanding shelving of a similar keyset also affect the vendor involved, not just the designer. What about the Leviathan vendor that was going to be part of the supposed GB?

I guess this is the consequence of collabing with a whiny designer. You reap what you sow. It's a loss for you, but it's a bigger loss for those affected by SA Leviathan set in terms of vendor, designer AND potential buyers.

Seriously, can we get this thread back on track to the actual topic of discussion? GMK Wavez. Not SA Leviathan. And not some thread on reddit. I don't know why the mods were so quick to mess around with the holy gsus threads and not this one. I'm more interested in things like cost, coverage, kits, novelties, and color-matching. This is an interest check thread about the design of a gmk set, not a biopic of the OP.

Coming in here just to complain about the designer and declare your choice to no longer participate in the group buy is borderline thread crapping.

Folks, I think we are over reacting here. Both impacted parties have had a heart to heart. Not sure why everyone is still hung up on it. There was no guarantee that SA Leviathan would have made it in the end. Even though we may miss SA on this colour scheme, who knows in future both of these designer could collaborate for SA drop?  Lets take a step back, many of us werent even aware of the SA IC and participated in this one, lets not kaibosh the designer and set to failure if both parties at stake have burried the hatchet. Enjoy may have lashed out not to everyones liking, but who hasnt made similar mistake when feeling something they poured their heart in may be copied by someone else. Not agreeing with how it was handled, but its understable and again THE AFFECTED PARTIES HAVE ALREADY CLEARED bad blood amongst themselves.

None of that helps the fact that the community is missing out on a set because Enjoy thinks he has a patent on bright green.

The fact that the leviathan creator is being a stand up person and acting like it is no big deal doesn’t change the fact that enjoy has no right to tell them they can’t design a set. Wavez reminds me a lot of toxic or terminal or nautilus nightmare but none of those designers are going off on enjoy about running a set.

Enjoy needs to get off the high horse and do the right thing and let them run leviathan until then I don’t see why we should let enjoy off the hook.

Hey all, just wanted to reach out and let you guys know that Enjoy and I worked this out privately and I received his blessing to run Leviathan. The audiences for these sets are different, and I think we can all agree that we have acted out based on emotion at some point or another in our life. Let us get this thread back on track and give Wavez the love it deserves. A ton of work obviously went into it.

Much love to Enjoy and the rest of this god-damn beautiful community.

Ahahaha, with that kind of attitude of claiming everything for himself, that's just a farfetched dream. If he had the slightest intention to do that, he would have done it instead of picking a fight and ruining it for the community. Hell, he could have done it by now which is after he has calmed down. But the fact remains that he didn't.

Looks like he has granted permission to bring back Leviathan. Ignore what I said then.

Hey guys it's Enjoy here! It's been a while since I last made any official announcement. I have a few words and updates that I know some of you have all been waiting for. Let’s get started!

Preface

First, I would like to officially announce that Massdrop will no longer be the vendor for this set as originally intended. It pains me to see it turns out this way, but unfortunately Massdrop and I could not find a common ground in our final agreement, and hence this is the way it must go. It has been a blast to work with them during these past couple months, and I wish Yanbo nothing but the best in his endeavor and future projects!

With that out of the way, I would like to credit and acknowledge all the help that has been involved in this project. I would like to thank Biip and Janglad for the tremendous amount of quality work they put in this project. Thanks to Otanishock for all his support and contribution to kit revising and format editing. Thanks to David from CandyKeys for being the vendor and for all his work waiting ahead post Group Buy in order to bring this set to you. But above all, thanks to all of you – everyone, especially all those who were here since day one when this set was just a conception. Thank you for all your contribution and suggestion! This set could not be nowhere near where it is today without all your unconditional help and support. I really appreciate everything! 
Without further ado, let’s get to the part where everyone is most excited for 😊.

Base Kit :
I have decided to configure the base kit with Icon Mods/Text Mods bottom row with basic ISO support. I feel this configuration truly captures the minimalist theme of the set which I am hoping for while stilling maintaining decent coverage for most popular layouts!

   

Numpad :
The Numpad! Yes I made the final call to split the numpad away from the base kit. This was not an easy decision, but I feel this would serve the best benefit to our community.



Novelties:
It is unfortunate that since this set is no longer available on Massdrop, I have to cut corners towards the novelties kit. Some of the extra keys from original novelties mockup have been removed in order to keep pricing in bound. 



Kobe:
Similar to the novelties situation as explained above, it is impossible for me to offer both alpha kits in this drop due to pricing and MOQ issues. My apologies to all the folks who voted for the Gaijin kit, but Kobe pulled ahead in the poll and so this is where it has to be.



Spacebar :
I don’t feel any modification towards the spacebar kit is necessary so it would remain as is.



Artisans :
And in addition to all of that, depending on the general consensus, I will propose 2 rama keycaps, one made out of aluminum with green infill, and the other one made out of mercury PVD brass without infill. Let me know what you guys think!



Ortho/Ergo/40% :
My sincere apologies to all the ortho/ergo/40% users! Unfortunately, I cannot offer support for your layout due to MOQ issues. As I do not want to put the strain on the vendor and force them to forebuy all these kits to push MOQs, I have decided to cut them entirely from the drop. Believe me that was a very hard decision to make, but I hope you will all understand.

Conclusion :

So here you go guys, that’s it! We’ve come far, and now it’s time to let it shine! Please let me know if you’d want to see any final change before we wrap up and move on to the Group Buy phase. Thank you so much for your support. You guys have always been my motivation for this project, and it has been a blast for me working on it ever since. Cheers to everyone! 😊
-Enjoy

Vendors:


EU : Candykeys
US : Dixiemech
ASIA : TBD (possibly ZFrontier ?)
AU : TBD (possibly Daily Clack ?)

NB : What do you think of this possible packaging  ;D ?

The box looks amazing! And I would like to see both versions of Rama caps if possible :) I don't think you would run into any MOQ issues there. And are you going to be running Nano.Wavez as well?
