Thanks for your high interests on our keyboard.

[Gatix]

I didn't expect it to be this early. Now panic selling my keyboards so I can get one

[Slash Emperor]

I look forward to picking up a B-stock kit tomorrow night.

[dead_pixel_design]

What kind of defects can we expect to see on the B-Stock versions?

There are some photos on the last page that illustrate what's to be expected.

Does the converted US times in the email take into account daylight savings?
EDIT: Also, what have people been using for spacebars on cherry profile keysets?

A full-size keyboard keycap set with additional 1.75u rightshift key should fit VE.A. Cherry profile 2.75u right shiftkey and 2u numpad 0 key should fit well as spacebars.

I have no idea about daylight saving offset.
How about try convert it?
Exact time will be "Nov 9 14:00 KST" that's all.

Just filled the form, though it would not let me put 0 down for the Gray option (I just wanted 1 Silver kit). I left a note stating that I only want one B-stock kit and prefer silver to gray. If silver is unavailable, however, I'll take the gray (or black, if gray is also gone).

I think they only wanted you to fill in the ones you wanted, not a 0 for those you don't want. Or at least I hope as that's what I did too with the black one

Ah, I was not sure. I hope it is clear enough on the form. I'm sending zefyr a PM right now just in case. Also glad that the form came in an hour earlier than expected, likely due to Daylight Savings, because I have to get up for work tomorrow.

[alienman82]

removed.

[RobotMalcolmX]

who is gonna do alps?

Nope.

cherry?

Possibly, may have some vintage clears or something. Kind of unsure what I'll actually use.

[Slash Emperor]

Pretty sure I'm going Cherry, just need to decide on switch. Kinda interested in those Panda switches, though I'd want to try them out on something else first. Might go tactile.

That form was open by accident.
That's why that form act like that.
I don't know why google form opened before trigger run.
We will accept your application, and your request about color option is confirmed.
Thanks for your high interest.

So to clarify, if we submitted we do not need to submit again, even though the form opened when it should not have?

[MandrewDavis]

I'm doing Cherry MX 'Yellow'. Cap selection was the main factor. Will probably go Alps if Oddforge does another GB and Wingpad's keyset gets off the ground.

Yes, unless you want to change your option or quantity.
(Yours will be processed as silver as you noted)

[zefyr]

Form will open in FIVE minutes.

[Slash Emperor]

Ah, did not realize that the form was not supposed to open an hour early. I was thinking it had to do with Daylight Savings, so I just did the form as soon as it opened.

Thank you for honoring the submission even with the early opening and accepting the color request.

[MandrewDavis]

I already have a PCB.  Should I make an acrylic case for it, or purchase B-Stock and have the ability to swap between Alps and Cherry MX?

I think you have me confused with Slash Emperor, he requested silver and I requested black when the form opened previously.

[zefyr]

I think you have me confused with Slash Emperor, he requested silver and I requested black when the form opened previously.

Nope, yours is black.

[RobotMalcolmX]

Oh good

[clappingcactus]

Well I submitted. Kind of upset that I'm here on time but people got access early.

Hope I still get what I want.

[JDragon]

Submitted form for silver (but will be ok with any color), hope I get in, thanks!

[RobotMalcolmX]

Well I submitted. Kind of upset that I'm here on time but people got access early.

Hope I still get what I want.

To be fair, I think it was only two of us that stumbled in early and got lucky.

I don't think it is fair.
It was accident, and we are very uncomfortable with our mistake.
We organized this for a long time.
I really don't know why that form opened earlier than I scheduled.

I'm okay with that. You two were around and checking a whole hour early. I'm sure you two would have submitted your forms before I did.

To say otherwise would be to be petty.

I was saying I'm okay with all outcomes.

Ah, I was so embarrassed for that.
Thanks for kind words.

[el-Chapino-del-Pepino]

Just put in one for a gray one! Hope I did it all correctly! Looking forward to it.

[JDragon]

Will we only know if we made it when the invoice comes?

[zefyr]

All application will be accepted so far.
Stock count is enough.
Except silver it is OOS now, however, JDragon you are in.

[el-Chapino-del-Pepino]

I still have not gotten a PayPal invoice? I just wanted to check and be sure that I am in line for one of these!

[RobotMalcolmX]

I still have not gotten a PayPal invoice? I just wanted to check and be sure that I am in line for one of these!

"We will send you invoice within 24 hours, in order of GB form application."

It's also 1:30 AM in Korea right now, so I wouldn't expect an invoice for the next little bit anyway.

Ah! I misread the initial post, I thought I had 24 hours to pay, and was getting worried that that window was halfway over without an invoice. I see now that the max turn-around time would be about 3 days, with the 24hr request window and the 48hr completion window.

Can't wait

[litster]

Thanks for making B stock available.  though I am surprised it is not sold out immediately, given so many people missed the original drop.

It was run very nicely too! The two day warning meant no unknown opening date or need to endlessly F5.

[dead_pixel_design]

I want one so bad I can taste it, but I can't make the ≈$400 happen no matter how I slice it =( Congrats to those lucky few of you that are picking these up! Can't wait to see your pictures

[RobotMalcolmX]

Invoice received and paid, thanks Oddforge team!

[hkf]

Guess I have to wait till all the housings are sold before I get word whether I can get a pcb/plate?
