Found an error in Exotic kit. The 3u key is only available in row 3. It will be changed in mockups to row 3 for the drop.

Update.

Hi T0mb3ry,

I don't know if you have your say in this, but do you know if Massdrop will ship the keycaps in trays ?
Scratches due to rough handling during shipping is to be expected if the keycaps are shipped in bags.
That would be a shame to spoil such a nice set.

SP caps all come bagged. But my personal experience is that ABS SA don't scratch as easily as PBT SA or ABS GMK ones do. I have yet to find a scratched key among my many sets that were all shipped in bags.

Ok then, thanks for the hindsight ;-)

This is literally the opposite of my experience. I have yet to receive a set of ABS SA caps shipped in bags that didn't have any scratched keys.

Slightly over 24 hours away from MD drop starting. Anyone hyped yet?

Why there is no non-scooped home keys F, J in the Alpha kit? It's better to have these two keys in one alpha kit. Anyone who like to have non-scooped F, J in their alpha zone could buy both the Alpha kit and the Adaptive Alpha kit. But it's a waste of money to buy two kits just to have what in a usual SA alpha kit.

I thought I was going to pass on this, but, with how beautiful the carbon themed Moon TKL looks, I can't imagine *not* getting this now...
Maybe they're waiting for gasmasks and latex to get sexy again.

The world has become a weird place.

Because during the IC Phase nobody asked/requested it.

I think you should just edit your first post on the top with a big "PLEASE NO REQUESTS FOR CHANGES." It'll save you a lot of headaches  ;D

What is the primary purpose of the adaptive alphas? are they mostly for ortho and ergo layouts?

edit your first post on the top with a big "PLEASE NO REQUESTS FOR CHANGES."

Indeed, all these IC threads would benefit from a title stating the deadline for suggestions and changes if applicable, followed by an edit saying closed if that's the case.

I am closing this thread due to the SP-SA Carbon Round 2 starting in less than 24h.

This was a superfast interest check (looking back at 31kits) I've done so far. I wish that fast IC will never happen again. I would rather having 3 months for IC so i got more time to think about kits, strategy, thoughts (work out some ideas to an appropriate result) i got on my mind and gather more feedback.

Anyway i'd like to thank everyone who provided feedback and suggestions. Ofcourse thanks to all hypemakers in this thread and i hope in the end all the hype was worth it ;)

Thank you!
