Navigate here to get your bearings and participate.GH is officially invited to the Deskthority Awards!I'm proud to invite GH users to the DTAs this year. HoffmanMyster gave me his moderation blessing, so this is the real deal.
What is this thing anyways?Deskthority members vote for the best in a number of input device related categories. They also determine the winner of The Deskthority, a special open category. Award winners will receive an exclusive Clack Factory Wingnut Trophkey. Vote in the final round to win prizes from our sponsors.
Why should GH participate?I added a new category. "Best artisan keycap." In addition, I (ohaimark on DT) have been working like mad to make this year special. We have 8 sponsors ranging from Cherry (!) to WASD keyboards.
How can I participate?You'll need to make an account on Deskthority. Once you do, you'll be free to vote in the awards.
You're just fishing for members!That isn't our goal. Deskthority wants to promote community wholeness, not division, and an invitation to the DTAs is a good first step. Yes, we can be a snarky and critical lot. That's just part of our culture.
Minimum of 10 posts to win prizes?We typically require a minimum of 10 posts on DT to win a prize from our sponsors. We're altering that requirement for active GH users as follows:
1. You must have a minimum of 15 posts on GH to win a prize.
2. We'll select a random voter from the awards.
3. If that voter has less than 10 posts at DT, we'll ask them to message us on GH to verify their membership and post count.
4. If we receive no reply within 24 hours, we will select another candidate at random (and so on).
Adjustments to this post's information could occur as things progress.
