I can't be the only one thinking this is a work of art. Keep it the way it is.

I'm not really keen on making any changes this late in the game. If I can swing getting added without any pricing changes, then fine.
Also, it is much nicer looking in reality than what is on the mockup.

I see what you're saying but there's too much going on in the pic for a clear analysis IMHO.

I would also donate a bit to help get a Simple E included.

Yep, not a single word and only one day before ordering deadline. Similar to what went on once the Classic Beige gb finally was announced.

Yeah after seeing this picture, I have even more interest in a normal E.  Otherwise I'll probably pass.

Seriously I find this kind of offending of people feeling entitled to drop something than Ivan created. If you don't like it than bounce and go to another GB.

If you really wanted to voice your opinion about one key you had 1-2 months plus the interest check time to say something.

We got this far why convince people to pay more?

Look dude, most of us are not threatening to cancel. In fact, several of us who are asking (like me) have been promoting this like crazy and committed to buy multiples of both sets.

Yes, we should have brought this up earlier. And that's why we are requesting nicely and at least three of us have offered to help pay for it.

Take the attitude somewhere else.

Honestly I got out of line there. My apologies, but it just irked me that people brought this up so late.

You're definitely not the only one that has been advertising(I created the banner that's in my sig). We are all in the same boat that all want the same thing at the end of the day which are some delicious GMK keycaps. Speaking of advertising has anyone made a "last call" post on reddit or DT?

I try to join recent GMK/keycap-set IC's or pre-GB discussions, however at that time I wasn't even aware of the GMK-keycap superiority myself, I was just beginning this hobby, it's not like I joined the IC and only brought this up at the last moment (I only realised it recently as I was just considering how I would use the keycaps)

Most importantly, there is also only one GMK GB going on at any one moment, due to an untold but existing GMK GB rule, so you just can't "bounce" and go elsewhere

I would love this set with the simple "E", but as it is, I just joined to not have regrets, no offence to anyone or to anyone's taste's, not all keycap sets have to be for everyone, I'm just saying that this set only needs that "E" to be perfect for me (Thanks to the bumped F/J's - the set is kind of a rarity too in terms of alphas)

And thanks Ivan for at least trying to swing it

This is exactly my thoughts on this aswell. I was not a part of the interest check and only noticed this set last week.  To be honest I didn't even notice the symbol until it was mentioned in this thread.  I have tremendous respect for Ivan as the man always bringing these lovely GMK sets to the community.  My GMK Dolch set was my first keycap purchase and I've been looking to acquire all the GMK I can since then.  With all the different options of CTRL+ALT+SHIFT keys offered in the buys I figured adding a normal E wouldn't be a big deal.  Shows how noob I am regarding this hobby still ;).

i think any ideas would be welcome in this no matter these would be adopted or not . Considerring this Miami have been decided, your ideas may applied   into next Ivan's GMK GB.
In my opinion, the mixed profile may impede someone from join this just because they get used to the old ones as IVAN has said in miami's IC. Perhaps, we could get used to this mixed profile and find we like this more than usual. The life itself is to explore the unknown and new and get used to new things and find new happiness and pleasure in new things.
Perhaps Ivan may bring other new color-way and new profiles we have never used, and we may get used to and explore distinctive and new pleasure in IVAN's new GMK GB.

Could be an awesome combination :) (it would either be awesome or terrible beyond imagination)

Nope, actually black is not my taste at all.
The color schemes I intend are similar to the following ones.
However, Ivan seems to be interested in an another color scheme maybe.

I don't think so. Noone has reported receiving one yet, and the groupbuy only finished yesterday.

I ordered the same, and he's probably doing those later. At least, I wouldn't put invoicing just space bars as a priority.

Check your invoice. Should have your order listed

Edit: looks like spacebars are all combined so no idea how you'd find that out
