Title: Glissant's giveaway! WINNERS ANNOUNCED INSIDE.
Post by: Glissant on Wed, 18 July 2012, 21:57:31
So without further ado, here are the winners of the two categories.

The mod category winners are:

#1 Dox (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=32966.msg627749#msg627749) with the ErgoDox.

#2 komar007 (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=32966.msg628243#msg628243) with a modified Cherry MX 8100.

#3 Half-saint (http://deskthority.net/post60341.html#p60341) with a modified TG3 BL82.

Keyboard winners are required to pay shipping for the keyboard they choose (overseas shipping for keyboards will only have to pay half, demik will cover the other half), and they can not already own the keyboard type that they choose.
First place gets first choice, so I will get in contact with all the winners when I can.
All winners contacted.


The key cap/design category winners are:

#1 Megnin (http://deskthority.net/post60317.html#p60317) with the idea to map any image to the keycaps using dye-sublimation.

#2 jdcarpe (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=32966.msg625732#msg625732) with a cool blue setup.

#3 cyngguru (http://deskthority.net/post69666.html#p69666) with a nice colorful setup.

The top tier prizes will be distributed via private message. I will contact you when I can. All winners contacted.

Thanks for participating in this huge giveaway. It was a fair bit of work, but we were happy to do it.
Don't forget to thank the people that donated extra stuff for our giveaway!


~~~~~~~~
This has already been posted to Deskthority, but I want to give the geekhack family a go too.
If you have already posted an entry at Deskthority, that will be your entry. If you want to change your entry then you will have to let me know via private message here or on Deskthority.

One important rule to note: If you joined after this was posted or you have less than 20 posts, you will be scrutinized extra to make sure you are not a cheater.

This time I will be giving away a little more than last time too. SO MUCH MORE STUFF! (link to my old giveaway (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=31322.0))

~~~
If you want a chance to win any of the lovely stuff that I have as a give away you only need to post your most impressive keyboard modifications and/or customizations in picture form. If you don't have the key caps or keyboards to post a picture of something awesome, then I would also love to see something illustrated through a drawing or computer graphics.
So to be totally transparent; I want you to show me a cool looking keyboard with key caps, a cool case, a nice paint job and/or anything cool you have done to your keyboard. It doesn't have to be anything extravagant, but I do want to see your personal preference in what you post, so if you only have some key caps, then show us what you like to do with them.

~~~

I will be shipping world wide, so anyone can and should enter if they have the time.

Here's the insane list of stuff we have to giveaway this time. WOW! THAT'S A LOT OF STUFF!

A full Ragnarok 104 set with Tsangan compatibility kit (http://i.imgur.com/OLBskl.jpg)(no stars). (picture of tsangan kit stolen from Ragnorock)

You can not receive a keyboard that you already have, and demik has vowed to castrate anybody that tries to sell the keyboards for profit at a later date.

And an assortment of different key caps.
(http://p.dalstein.info/keyboard/giveaway/thumb/giveaway_040.jpg) (http://p.dalstein.info/keyboard/giveaway/giveaway_040.jpg)

More novelty key caps! A bunch of hammer & sickle, some Pi and a lavender WASD set.

I got something else in the mail today that I will be adding to the giveaway!
(http://p.dalstein.info/keyboard/giveaway/thumb/portal_mods.png) (http://p.dalstein.info/keyboard/giveaway/portal_mods.png)

There are now TWO categories of entries.
One category will be modification and the other is keycap/design/customization.
You guys don't need to worry about which category you are in, because ultimately it will be my wife and I who decide who wins what.

The entries for the keycap/design/customization part of the giveaway will be able to win this:
(We are running a trickle down system on the different parts because there are so many.)
First place:
will get the choice between either the Ragnarok set, the mint gum ClickClack skull or the midnight blue ClickClack skull. And will also receive a Full bag of sample switches from Mrinterface!
Second place:
will get either the Ragnarok set, the mint gum or the midnight skull depending on the first place's choice.
Third place:
will get the remaining piece of the Rag set, the mint gum skull or the midnight skull

The entries for the modification part of the giveaway will be able to win this:
First place:
will have first choice of one of the three keyboards
Second place:
will get second choice
Third place:
will get the last remaining keyboard
I must stress that if you win a keyboard, we will need you to pay for shipping. We aren't made of money ;) .

Honorable mention entries:
All novelty caps we have will be distributed by us to worthy entries.

No matter how you cut it, those are some amazing gifts!
All keys are Cherry MX compatible.

Best of luck to anyone that enters! I hope you have fun =D.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I reserve the right to add or change any rules and/or information at any time of the giveaway.

Deadline for new entries will be Wednesday 08/01/2012 (August first two-thousand-and-twelve) 1 pm EST (16:00 GMT).


A couple of additions that came to mind during the night:
Only 1 entry per person. If you post more than one I will have to ask you to pick one, and delete the other(s). I will not do this for you.
No cheating!
Put some thought into your entry. You can submit whatever you want, but trust me when I say that my wife is very critical to this hobby  8)

I'm not really shocked, but I do think it's interesting that the first entry at geekhack is a "paper weight".

Maybe try to put some effort into your entry next time.

Considering its a 90€ keyboard, ive only got it for like a month, and that there is little to none availibility of mechanical keyboards and its add ons on my country i think i've done fine, but whatever its not like the end of the world for not entering a give away.
Title: Re: Glissant's bonanza extravaganza! (It's a giveaway!)
Post by: Glissant on Thu, 19 July 2012, 17:27:50
Entering a plain keyboard is fine. But maybe you should have taken some time to make the picture look a little better, make the joke a little funnier, drawn something on it with editing software. Anything a little more.
I got my key caps in Norway and painted my case in Norway, so your excuse is way too thin.
All I ask is for a little effort to be put forth. If you take it personally then you might want to rethink your entry.

Going to be re-working the prize system later tonight.


I will also be extending the giveaway for a week or so. Not quite sure just how long, but a little bit longer so people can get back to geekhack before the dead line runs out.


Don't be afraid to post anything that you have in the keyboard world. It can even be a paint drawing if that's all you can do =).


3am edit:


I've had to postpone what I had planned for yesterday. I will try to get everything sorted later today 7/21/2012.

I will re-post from DT my entry.  I have designed and produced a couple dozen keys, but my pride and joy are the billiards set.  I spent a lot of hours getting each key perfect down to the .0001" so that the circles were consistent, the font was authentic, and the set matched.

Deadline for new entries will be Wednesday 08/01/2012 (August first two-thousand-and-twelve) 1 pm EST (16:00 GMT).


No changes in deadline after today, barring unforeseen circumstances.


So this means you only have a few days until we will no longer accept entries.


Good luck to everyone.

I doubt I'm going to get my poker by August 1st, so I'll have to enter my WASD with custom died PBT caps and the custom wood wrist rest.


IMO it won't be as good as the poker but it will be something.

Here's my entry: WASD V1, custom mint/lime green dyed engraved PBT key caps, 'dat purple clack, and then icing on the cake, a custom wrist rest made of purple heart and lace wood that I made myself. The wrist rest would look even better but it doesn't have any finish on it. That lacewood looks like a holographic pokemon card when fully finished.

Nice Giveaway!
Here is my entry : BlackWidow (my First Mech. Keyboard, mod like that because I love gaming (Starcraft) and because my IG name is optimus (esc. key))
The numpad keys were replaced by keys with the leagues and the races from Starcraft.
I hope you'll enjoy it :)

I like my keyboards boring. Just Pure with engraved PBT, save for 1 white PBT on ESC and stuffed with mouse pad (to deaden the resonance and bottom out sound. Top out sound is quieter too.). It weighs about as much as my 87k Filco that's also on the desk.

Post by: Glissant on Thu, 02 August 2012, 15:37:06
The_Beast, your entry clearly indicates the same board, keycaps and wrist rest in all pictures, so it's perfectly fine :) .

It's just the people that had different layouts, different keyboards entirely and different mods that need to choose one of their entries. There aren't too many of them, but I would like not to have to remove anyone simply because they didn't follow the simply guidelines.

We have around 60 entries we need to look through, so it will take a little bit of time before we get the winners announces.

If you have multiple entries, and you don't choose one by the time we get back from dinner, we will discard your entry and you will not be in the giveaway.
I hate being a stickler, but I can't flip flop on what I've been saying since day one :) .

And besides, this is my giveaway  :P .

Now that I've had some sleep I have to say this: There were just too many awesome entries. We had a really hard time picking ones that we both liked. That's also why we are sending out gifts to 9 honorable mentions as well as the winners!

Next time I hope to get over 100 entries :D ! (we got a little over 60 entries in total this time)

Thanks again for entering, and please don't hesitate to do a little dance when you see this thread and all the winners

Still waiting for a few winners to get back to me. Will post with updates when I can.

I might cancel the honorable mentions that don't get back to me if it takes too long :).
Please get back to me about your address if you haven't already.

I took the Siig minitouch, so Half-saint gets the M1.
Thanks Glissant, the giveaway was a great idea!

I'm only waiting for one person to get back to me before I can start shipping stuff out. I am also still waiting to receive the mint gum green skull from net2522, so that will ship out as soon as I get it.

I am waiting for Half-Saint to get back to me. Anybody have him on speed dial?

Finally got the honorable mentions packed and ready to go.

Only able to ship to jdcarpe out of the top three winners at the moment as I am still waiting for the ragnarok tsangan kit for megnin's prize.
I also have to wait for the skull from net2522, but that should hopefully come soon.

I hope people will post what they get in the mail :). I didn't send any special message with the packages. In retrospect I guess I should have so you would know what you got, but my Philly address is on there, so that should make it a little more clear.

Glad you got them :) Hope you enjoyed the little drawing my wife made for you.

But didn't you like getting the thirteen other keycaps? I guess I should have thought about who would get what in the honorable mentions, but I just picked a handful of things and put them in the envelopes.

Thanks for posting what you got :). I hope everyone finds the time to take a picture so that everyone can see that this wasn't just hype.

I just want to remind everyone that some people will only be posting in either thread, so if you are looking to see what people got, the thread at DT is a good place to check http://deskthority.net/off-topic-f10/glissant-s-bonanza-extravaganza-t3016.html .

I am still waiting for net2522 to send me the mintgum green skull, but it seems like he is dodging me for some reason. I hope he contacts me soon.
Title: Re: Glissant's giveaway! WINNERS ANNOUNCED INSIDE.
Post by: Glissant on Mon, 20 August 2012, 23:35:38
I sent megnin's prize today (finally), so that only leaves the skull that net2522 pledged to the giveaway.

I hope to see people post pictures of what they get still :).

Edit:
Did I forget to add Ripster's winnings? Here they are: http://imgur.com/E18jN

net2522 is nowhere to be found, so it looks like I will have to dig for something in my stores to replace the mint gum skull. I'll let you know what that is later tonight or tomorrow. It won't be a skull unfortunately, but I will see if I can find something of interest.

Sorry to cyngguru for this, but it was out of my hands.
