Bro Caps and [Ctrl]Alt join forces.

Our goal has always been to provide the community with awesome stuff – this is why we've gone further than anyone else in developing a platform around our group buys.
Bro Caps has been doing the same, and it only makes sense to bring him into the fold.
In the future, you can expect Bro Caps sales to take place via a raffle system we've designed from scratch on [Ctrl]Alt.
We're going to take care of the logistics and provide an awesome experience for you all so that Bro can focus on the thing we all want: more awesome caps.


To welcome Bro Caps and to introduce people to the new system, we will be holding the first Bro raffle starting shortly.



This first raffle will only be for people who didn't make it into the Independence Day sale. It will be open for 48 hours, at the end of which you'll be able to check whether you got in or not. (You'll also receive an email.)

You can enter to win as many caps as you'd like, but with this sale a maximum of 1 cap per person can be awarded.

The raffle will go live as soon as we push the update, so feel free to get f5ing or check back at your leisure.......

Good luck!
I'M IN THE PROCESS OF MOVING RIGHT NOW, WILL BE BACK AROUND SOON

Awesome news Bunny and I am sure Cody has been hard at work also! Props!

I have no idea how it may have been coded, just wanted small insight if the raffle is being done on a key cap basis or on a list of entrants then looking into what may be a preference list.

I am stoked regardless, and looking forward to this sale!!

illl discuss this all further tomorrow when its not gone 4 am but it is done on a per cap basis, however, when adding caps to your ticket, in your "cart" you will be able to assign an order, so if you were to draw more than the amount of caps allotted in that sale, we would be able to offer them to you in order of preference

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
