Title: [IC] Nyancat Backspace and row 4 set
Post by: Ragnorock on Fri, 28 October 2011, 16:42:49
The idea is this:

NYANCAT AS BACKSPACE

RAINBOW OF KEYS GOING ALL ALONG `1234567890-=

basically, 2 different rainbow keys, one where it waves up, one where it waves back down, alternate the keys and it looks like a rainbow trail!

Here's a preliminary test design, final design is likely to be on the top row of white keys or on a different blue than either of those pictured. Stars will probably be blue instead of yellow but we dunno.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30700[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30233[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30234[/ATTACH]

With a rainbow behind it along the number row.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30374[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30366[/ATTACH]
[ATTACH=CONFIG]30367[/ATTACH]

It would be a dyesub on a medium blue key or white, to match either the portal keyset or the one that \KL is doing. ^.^

There are lots of people interested so it's going to happen if it is at all possible.

That's actually a great idea, if SP can do it.  Then right Alt can be nyan cat.

As someone who never uses right alt, winkey, menu, or ctrl. I am down with that. But I was also referring to having trail+nyan on the same spacebar. Whichever floats your boat though, maybe put it to a vote?

you cant dyesub the spacebar right cuz its ABS and not PBT since they can't do spacebars as PBT at Signature Plastics.

I'm still down with the idea on the Backspace and the rest of the rainbow.

Oh are we doing this through Signature Plastics..? Perhaps we could get a better deal somewhere else on the spacebar though, perhaps two group buys then?

2 group buys mean none will go through cuz lack of people or the price skyrockets. Since the OP decided on backspace + the rest as rainbow then i guess this is what we're doing.

Normally all these group buy for custom keycaps are all from SP, and SP can't do PBT spacebar because of the shrinkage which only leaves ABS which I dont think it can be dyesubbed.

Where else are you going to get a place to manufacture a rainbow spacebar?

The idea behind having bksapce as Nyancat and 124567890-= as the rainbow is that you can extend the rainbow however long you want (or not have one).

Well aware of that but a lot of people are suggesting the nyan cat on the alt and spacebar as the rainbow, and I'm just telling them I don't think thats even possible that is all.

I prefer the backspace + rest of row 1 anyways

Which is true, as long as you don't have to buy a whole rainbow if you aren't interested in it, as that would probably raise the price significantly to have it if you don't want it.

Hi5.

I also thought of making the whole keyboard the rainbow. That would be nice (as a joke. not actually).

In for the whole set... any idea if we can make the background keycaps color black or white to match most peoples keycaps...

Wouldn't mind putting this on a otaku keyboard in black or white...

This is correct. This has to be dye sublimated, and you can't dye sub on ABS so a spacebar is impossible. In addition, we'd have to wait for the universal spacebars which is going to be a while. Was a great idea though, I'd do it if it was possible.

You cannot do dye subs on black, so that leaves us two color options:
Poptart on Blue
Poptart on White

I'm good with either, blue would go more with the original scheme of the nyan, but white would go really well with other sets (Portal)

Likely color codes for them would be WFJ for white (same as Portal) and BCT for blue (\KL set).

I'm willing to offer them separate so that those that don't want the rainbow don't have to get it. Both will get enough since people will likely be getting many rainbow keys.

Post by: tsangan on Fri, 28 October 2011, 19:57:28
I think on blue would look better for the theme, but white would match the rest of the board more then likely. I think personally I would like blue more, even on a full otaku white/black board you can still have that looking like the sky and the amazing rainbow with the cat.
Title: [IC] Nyancat Backspace and row 4 set
Post by: jpm804 on Fri, 28 October 2011, 19:59:34
thanks for clarification on the background color possibilities... either one is fine with me ( leaning towards white) but I'm getting the KL set also so not losing out if it goes blue.

So doing it on white is going to result on a better looking nyan. (I'm sorta leaning toward white)

The amount of colors shouldn't actually pose a problem, its literally just a printer printing onto the keycaps.

You're probably not going to get to see a sample since they don't usually make them until the order is submitted. We might get lucky though like I did with those prototypes of the portal gb posted above.

I think you're image really demonstrates the point. But i'm worried its just the contrast of the color against the key's color that's distorting my perception.

Fortunately there are only three unique keys, so huge rainbows should be cheap!  I would much prefer a blue background, but if it makes nyan cat hard to see then I'm OK with white.

You could do white, but with a blue background as an added colour on the top. The difference being it'd be white on the sides still.

Yeah, I really like the look of black on red, and I want that scheme for my eventual Realforce since they sell that set for Topres.

Honestly since they cost around $90 and that's what most Cherry MX keyboards cost in themselves, the idea of spending that much on a keycap set for them is kinda ludicrous.

That would look pretty terrible because it would showcase the limits of the printing for the dye sublimation printer... the edges would most likely be uneven and not at the absolute edge of the keycap.

I thought of something, Since there are 13 keys before the backspace you might have to take a vote as to whether to have 7 Up Rainbows and 6 Down Rainbows, or the other way around. Some might like to start it with rainbow up and some might prefer rainbow down, and if all people receive the same amount, that doesn't allow for doing both options. Or maybe consider Backspace + 6 Up + 6 Down + their pick of up or down for the last one.

I was thinking more of you can buy any amount of other up/downs as you'd want. I'm actually only interested in about 4 rainbow keys.

Okay so my thoughts on the design for the rainbow keys is this:

The backspace key of nyancat will have the rainbow ending at either up or down, and obviously the corresponding key follows it, so for example:

Nyancat's rainbow ends down, followed by a down to up key, followed by a up to down key, and so on however far out you want to carry the rainbow and vice versa if Nyancat's rainbow ends up.

ALSO:
It may be entirely possible to just make one key that ends the same on both sides, while having a up or down section in between, meaning we'd only have to legend 2 keys, and it'd be cheaper.

Great idea with having just 2 legend keys. That would certainly make it easier. I wonder, is 30 enough to get the group buy started and bypass the interest check?
Title: [IC] Nyancat Backspace and row 4 set
Post by: jpm804 on Sat, 29 October 2011, 23:12:12
i assume the pricing would be kinda similar to the portal GB since the amount of keys are slightly similar.

@ 25 sets it was like $22, so maybe slighhjtly more than that... or is my assumption all wrong.

Just so everyone knows, being on the "I'm interested" list means nothing. At this point I'm going to be doing this group buy already, there isn't any way it isn't going to happen unless Melissa says the design is impossible to do, and I'm fairly confident it is possible. The list was just so everyone can see how quickly this idea has gathered interest. To give everyone an idea of the cost, it's going to cost $40 for the artwork fee, I'm assuming it won't be more than the Portal keyset, which was $40, plus the somewhat higher price of a dyesub. Not sure exactly, but since its much lower volumes we're probably looking at about $2-5 a keycap... I'm not sure though, so we'll see. I noticed that the discounts SP does for dyesubs are a lot less than those of doubleshots, so the spread will likely be much less significant than say the SC2 keycaps which themselves start out in between $4-5.

Going to go with white most likely, unless Melissa says it wouldn't be much more expensive to offer both. (Meaning the quantity discounts are so insignificant there pretty much isn't much reason to not offer both since it'll be relatively the same price.)

freaky ****...I was talking to infernosaint about this when he was visiting here last week anbd I was putting together an SVG for a group buy...though I was planning on esc+fkeys for the design.
Well, saves me the work xD

Ill take one full set and one extra Backspace.

ALSO:
It may be entirely possible to just make one key that ends the same on both sides, while having a up or down section in between, meaning we'd only have to legend 2 keys, and it'd be cheaper.

This sounds good but I think with 2 different rainbow (3 keys total) would give a the rainbow a better effect due to the spacing in between of each key having the same art on the entire rainbow won't be as nice, but this is just my opinion.

I was thinking about this too. Theoretically, the single key chaining would work, but would look better with one key that went "-_-" and another that was that flipped over the x-axis, so that the rainbow went up and down as opposed to just "-_-_-_-_-_-" and so on.

Post by: tsangan on Sun, 30 October 2011, 11:14:37
I mean i down for either, but if the price isn't that much higher with the 3rd key I think the difference in the overall outcome would look a _lot_ better because if the rainbow is just 1 legend and with the spacing in between the keys too it won't have that wavy look.

Not sure if I'm doing this right, but here goes;

I took Hazeluff's image and scaled it down, put it on some caps. Results:

[ATTACH=CONFIG]30361[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH=CONFIG]30360[/ATTACH]

First one uses the same rainbow cap all the way, the other alternates between two caps, whose both placement of the individual rainbow stripes, and the texture as whole, is alternated.

I believe there could be made a couple of adjustments to make it look better, if you have any suggestions please let me know. You could also edit it yourself, of course ;3

Oh and, make sure you view them in full resolution, or the rainbow fukka's occasionally >.>

What I can come up with initially. Second one has some alternation in the position, while the first only alternate the three rainbow stripe-things on the individual keycaps.
I think the last one makes it look more as if the rainbow actually continues from each key.

Also, I'm unsure how far out dye-subbing can get on each key. Anybody want to let me know? I have a feeling it's pretty close on these last two <_<

I agree, we should prioritize 3 keys since I think they'd look better, but I was just offering up that it could be a 2 key set. Looking at those images, it looks awesome, but it'd be nice if the rainbow was just a smidgen more wavy in the final svg. The concept art looks great though, you really did capture the difference between the two ideas.

It won't be shipping with the portal set, since it's production will finish much later than the other GBs. I will likely be offering international shipping at the same rates as before, which everyone has found reasonable.

Edit: I suppose the full body height makes sense, but for some reason I like the look of the first one better, what do you guys think? Also watching the video, the rainbow doesn't really move all too much, so we'd be making changes to it regardless.

Edit 2: Also if we do it on blue we could include stars in the background.

Zifle: The new images look really good.

Ragnorock: What I would suggest is if its white key, do it with the large rainbow to cover basically the whole key, if its on a blue key then do it with the small rainbow and add stars, either one of those would look awesome

I like the first one, but it just needs all the number keys to be the same keycap.

I'd like to have the letters of keys we're replacing to be in the blank area, but that means adding alot of keys to the set (so probably a bad idea).

Yeah this isn't a group buy for a set of all the keys from ~1234567890-= because that would be much higher in cost. If we don't legend them, then we only have to make 2 or 3 different keys, and its much cheaper.

Yeah, was just throwing it out there (I thought it was a decent idea, excluding the obvious cost problems).

Otherwise, I think the big waves would be best.

Okay yeah that. That looks incredible. I like the separate key for the up and down wave, because it gives us variance in the stars. The stars could also be different themselves, like some of them in the different stages of the animation, giving it more realism. Other than that, the only thing I don't like is that one star under the rainbow... it probably won't come out very well in the dyesub.

Understandable, I mostly just wanted to see how it would look (also to give it even more variance).
If anybody (Hazeluff? =D) wants the psd, you can grab it here (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10171474/Keyboard/keyboard.psd).
It has the keyboard, and each of the 4(5) different suggestions. I'm not really good with vector graphics (neither am I with bitmap, but what can you do?), so I would suggest Hazeluff (or someone else, if they want to) convert the finalized images to svgs.

I like it ! Perhaps the rainbow on the backspace should get cut slightly, to fit within the keycap itself, but apart from that, it's great ! (>^.^)>

Edit: I should have noted on the blue-background-keys I posted earlier, that I'm not completely confident it's the exact color, but it should be fairly close to that which was stated in the OP (and used in \KL's GB). I'm especially thinking of the purple in the rainbow. Perhaps we should try with a slightly lighter purple to get some more contrast?

I don't think the little bit on the backspace matters as it's just a design we send them.

As for the colors, I agree that maybe we want a lighter purple or a lighter blue keycap. But since that's not decide, we'll just leave it till it needs changes.

In the actual SVG it does, exactly what we send them is what they print aside from positioning. However I'd like to see the rainbow go as close to the edge of the printable area as possible, so if you want to run the rainbow on the two other keys up to the edge that works for me too. There's a lot of controversy over how dark the blue from /KL's gb is, but its a medium blue and a darker purple would provide decent contrast with it, but the darker colors aren't going to show up very well regardless since it's on blue and not white... so expect that purple isn't going to be very visible regardless.
Hazeluff, whenever you've got SVGs you're good with me sending into Melissa for her to give the thumbs up/down go ahead and send them to me in an email. You should still have my email from the other gbs but if you don't lmk and I'll PM it to you.

If we can go to the edge of the keycap, why don't we add in as much blue background as possible by having another colour (darkerbluebackground) on the white keycaps? that way it's got some amount of background there. I think it could look better.

Here's a picture showing what I mean.

What I meant by the rainbow going to the edge of the svg is not that it will actually print to the edge of the keycap, but that it should be at the edge of the image to extend it as much as possible. I honestly do not know how close to the edge of the keycap they can print. We'll know that tomorrow.

Okay just got a reply and started a brief convo about it. She's going to run a test print of them tomorrow to see how they look. The only problem that I forgot about is that they can't dyesub white. That only eliminates the stars, but unless you want to do the stars in a different color, we're going to have to do without them. I'm not sure whether she's going to print them on blue or white keycaps... but hopefully both.

Perhaps the possibility of doing a light yellow for the stars? Since that technically seems appropriate as it would be light and still show off the effect we are looking for.

I want that Team Liquid horse keycap where it looks like its on crack ;o

I think its exactly as how Ragnorock says, it'll probably look more vibrant on the white because the colour will show up more. Guess we'll know more when the test results comes out

I just hope this is a quick GB cuz I want this NOW!

Blue stars on a white keycap might work, thoughts? Yellow on blue sounds good to me otherwise.

If we end up using the blue background, a very light blue might be neat for the stars as well. Light blue looks very similar to white. Random example from Google images:

Okay here are some early prototypes, the backspace is an off white because she hadn't made any in the WFJ that the top row of keys are, so while that doesn't look very good expect the colors to be like they are in the top row- very vivid and look great. She didn't have any of the correct blue keys on hand either, whether she meant just the backspace or all of the keys I'm not sure, as it appears the row 4 keys are darker than the backspace.

Keep in mind that everything is relative since its a photograph, the actual colors probably vary from what is displayed on all of our monitors. You can tell that the printing does go pretty much up to the edge on the r4 keys, but not on the backspace, and while the colors do look much more natural on the white keys, they somewhat remind me of ice cream advertisements and I can say with confidence now that I like the blue better.

Also apparently the other group buys are shipping tomorrow, and will get here on thursday... hopefully these will be included so I can take more pictures and give you a more accurate description of the colors- the grey may have come out slightly blue on the blue keys, but it seems to match the color on the beige key so it could just be a trick on the eyes.

The cat looks blue on the beige key too lol maybe its just my eyes

Besides that I think the white looks better, only because this blue is a lighter blue then what we're gonna be getting so with the darker blue means the colour even less vibrant, while the white one the colour looks really good but in the end you're the OP

If we changed the grey to a darker grey, it should look less blue (I think). The yellow looks a bit eh. On 2nd look, the green and purple may need touching up in color as well.

I think the colour looks different because the yellow is mixing in with the blue which will dull the colour

What if we dye sublimated the background blue as well. (Sure the whole key wont be blue, but we get the best colors).

Yea, have to say that the white looks better. My vote had been for blue before but with the keycap color and the ink fighting against each other the white seems to keep the colors intact better.

Totally agree with oneproduct. Even the color of the cat seems blue-ish on the blue key. The colors on the white keys look brighter than the blue one.

I asked if she could send me the keycaps to see in person. She grumbled about having to reopen the box and put them in but I'm pretty sure she'll do it. When I suggested blue from the start I expected the colors to be skewed blue somewhat. Once I get the keycaps I'll make a judgement call on whether its too blue or not. (Keep in mind the cat in the picture is a Russian blue lol.) Apparently neither of the blues are the blue from the \KL keycap buy. A darker grey would make it look less blue but also less contrast to the black as well. Keep discussing guys, I know the white's colors look fantastic but I keep imagining them on my keyboard and having people question my sexuality. 'Jus sayin.

And since when did nyancat become associated with homosexuality?

If we can go to the edge of the keycap, why don't we add in as much blue background as possible by having another colour (darkerbluebackground) on the white keycaps? that way it's got some amount of background there. I think it could look better.

Here's a picture showing what I mean.

Thoughts?

Edit: Please forgive white lines between my hastily added background and the rainbow that's already there.
I was wondering why no-one replied to my idea: I should hake just forwarded it to you :)

I'd say that I'm in 100% on white, and maybe a 40% with blue, depending on what reaper says.

Ugghhh, the rainbow on the top is so crisp! I'd take it over blue if the backspace was just as nice and nyancat's fur didn't have that blue tint.  I REALLY wish the blue keycaps would work out, though.  I don't even mind the blueberry flavor that nyancat has right now on the light blue, but I worry that everything'll become duller if we use the darker blue.  Sigh.

White it probably is then, what color should we do the stars, yellow or blue? I vote blue if its on white. Still don't want to do a blue background on them, but if everyone wants that I'll do it. You guys don't think it'll look funny to have white on all the sides and then essentially no white on top? It's supposed to be a legend not a decal.

I would say the stars should be blue if they're on white. Also, I assume this is the same white as the portal set? Also, does anyone know what board these whites would best match? Are the Leopolds solid white like this, or weird off-white/cream?

I'm definitely leaning towards the whites, if it's as bad (imo) as it looks on the blues.
I don't think the stars look bad, being the yellow they are, on the white, I have a feeling I might prefer it to blue stars.

Regardless, I might need a new pair of pants.

Prices have been sent to me, here's the email:

David-
Pricing for these sublimated keycaps - when quoted individually is below:
1x Keys
25 keys         $7.71 / key
50 keys         $3.54 / key
75 keys         $2.63 / key
100 keys       $2.17 / key
250 keys       $1.26 / key
500 keys       $0.98 / key
 
2x keys
25 keys         $7.90 / key
50 keys         $5.15 / key
75 keys         $4.24 / key
100 keys       $3.78 / key
250 keys       $2.96 / key
500 keys       $2.69 / key
 
There would be a one-time sublimation artwork/paper/setup fee of $80 (2 different artworks @ $40 each - the 2x key is the same and can be printed on either version). As always, pricing does not include freight charges. All sales sold or shipped to a Washington State address will be subject to sales tax.
 
Let me know if you need anything else!

That looks expensive but I'm expecting around 100 backspace and probably >250 1x keys. Note the bottom part where she mentions the $80 fee, I'm going to be factoring that into the costs this time because last time with the portal group buy I had to cover it myself. But expect the prices to be relatively close to those, and structured very similar to my previous group buys.

Should be around $20 for a full row of nyan, so about the same as the Portal keyset. I'll be starting an order thread shortly. Going to go with blue stars on white (WFJ same as Portal) keycaps.

is WA more white then WFJ? or did you mean WFK?

Or were you guys thinking WA is too white?

I'm pretty sure you're looking at a picture of their ABS keycap colors, she sent me her two whitest PBT keys and WFJ was fantastically pure bright clean white. Its what you want, trust me.

Is it just the picture or is the bottom color of the rainbow not really violet but rather a darker blue? And will the pixelation for the black outline of the cat be that clunky? The original is thinner, and I know they're capable of doing thinner lines. Just wondering. I do understand these are prototypes. But clearly you have immense interest in this group buy and when I get interested in something I'm a stickler for accuracy.

Hmm, nobody has mentioned that yet, I'll take a good look at the colors when I get the keycaps in person tomorrow, but as for the line I suppose that we could rework the SVG if everyone agrees that they want the line thinner. Tbh I think it looks fine as it is, and somewhat adds to the pixelized theme.

Yeah, I made the artwork and took ages to make the blocky lines so that it looks near identical to the original. The problem with "thinning the lines" is that I can no longer make it properly "pixelated"/8bit or would need quite some time to find a way around it. I think the printing process made the lines thicker/thinner at parts. But I think they look alright. If enough people think it's a problem I'll redo it tho.

I gotta ask, why is the light blue part on the rainbow noticeably thinner on the downwards wave?

Its not the image we sent in, it must be how its made. If you look at some of the black outlines of nyancat. Some are larger and some are smaller. Also those pink/purple specs on the poptart. I guess thats just how the process turns out.

Okay so I've currently got a Nyancat for a backspace, I'll get some pictures up later but after seeing them in person:

1. Nyancat definitely looks awesome on either blue or white. On the blue key, she isn't blue enough to say it isn't grey and perfectly colored. Rainbow still looks awesome, everything looks fantastic except the stars on any key.
2. Blue stars are definitely necessary on white keys because you can't really see the yellow on white at normal sitting height... and its even worse on the blue.
3. The alternating wave on the rainbow isn't really too noticeable but it's there if you look for it.
4. The violet wave looks purple enough, but on the downward arc escape keys have a violet wave that mostly overwrites the blue one.

At the moment I'm thinking white with blue stars or blue with some other color of star, probably a dark blue.

I've had a hell of a week with school and GB shenanigans so I'm going to spend the evening playing SC2 and BF3 and I'll get you guys a bunch of updates later. For now though, have some teaser pics. Better pics will come tomorrow when it's daylight out, lighting is terrible.

When you're just sitting from your desk, you can't really see the wave effect, so I'm going to see what the difference in cost is for only using one "neutral" 1x key instead of an up and down key... if it's going to save everyone a bunch of money, we'll probably go with that.

Thanks for the compliment JPM, my setup has been my pride and joy for quite some time.

If that's true, I'll go modify the image so that its a even number of up and down parts on each key. Also I can try to move the up and down parts a bit so that its a bit more noticeable. Let me know if that's a good idea.

If  you could do the second option, that'd probably be my favorite outcome, we can still make changes to the design as much as we want right now. I'm still going to ask about only doing 1 1x key since only doing one will up the quantity for that key, and we'll see how that turns out.

Just to remove one more variable, we're going to do it on White, I just decided. Go ahead and change the color of the stars to blue.too.

Edit: Yeah Gen 2 30in, and a 23in at the right of it. Also lots of keycaps... and forgive the terrible picture of my setup, its nighttime.

For some reason I thought that SP would package the portal sets in well, sets. Not a giant bag of keys. That makes things significantly more difficult for you. Sorry about that.

They're individually packaged in sets within the big bag... so it is how you imagined. I just plop the set in the box. I guess I'll be running to the store to get ziplock or sandwich bags for the SC2 keys though.

So now that I have these one off Nyancat keys... I wonder how much I could sell them for? Lmao.

Guy Fawkes mask has to be a doubleshot since it's white on black... Pedobear seal of approval key would be dangerously funny. It could be done.

I love the way the rainbow is now, so it's going to stay similar to that, sorry. Max I would go is to the actual top of the tail, I'd be completely cool with that and it'd be a few mils wider. I'm not sure if I should bother Hazeluff to change it, but if he's willing its up to him. That may actually make the rainbow turn out better overall.

Is this to make the rainbow taller and be the same height as the top of the tail? I can get on it in a bit. But im going out for 30 mins atm. Will get it posted here soon.

Well since we have 3 different pedobear designs, we should probably narrow em down a bit. One of the two designs that are similar and then the seal of approval.

My order of preference....

1.Peeking Pedobear - tab/modifer
2. Seal of approval - ESC
3.Pedobear - ESC

There's only one way of deciding this. You and RCT fight to the death using your keyboards. You may customize in anyway you want. No mouses, no monitors. GO!

Also, you want me to throw up the IC for the meme stuff?

You remind me of a Jordanian friend of mine. >.>

Lol its funny because we're both like meh you can do that one.

I vote that if he gets to do SC2 League keycaps, I get Meme, Nyan, and Triforce.

You can go ahead and throw up the IC for them though. Triforce doesn't even need one, we all know everyone wants one.

Great stuff! :)
But the mask could need some of its wrinkles, otherwise it looks too friendly imo...
And for the ShoopDaWhoop one we could go for the outlines to get some more detail if possible?

[ATTACH=CONFIG]31017[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]31016[/ATTACH]

Also...
(http://stickerish.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/FacepalmWhiteSS.png)
Or some other facepalm variant would rock!

Btw, whats with "(.)(.) or GTFO" from the other thread?
Perhaps also "(´・ω・)つ(・(・" Kneading Tits
Id be in for a lion as well ">:3"

So many ideas...

Facepalm's gonna work. Don't know about pools closed.

And for shoopdawoop, I've realized I've oversimplified some details that could of been kept. Thanks = ).

EDIT: New shoopdawoop

Rag, prob should do it, since your GB is about to be shipped and RCT is still doing orders.

RCT can do my SC2 If it ever get approved. ==

Anyway I have so many ideas, there are bound to be more to come.

Also, IC coming up just after my breakfast....mmmm

Deal; I am still trying to get the sc2 caps done and I want them more than the Triforce but, if it falls through, I will take the triforce and you can keep the 300 meme keys and the Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan.
