I'd be interested in Awesome / Disapproval and a Vim key.

No, sorry, I do not want to explore a 'NEW' key with this buy.

Bugger, I'd love a Vim key. Ah well, I'd still be up for the other two keys.

Edit: I've decided to just wait for R4, as I'll be able to get everything I want from there. Thanks anyway, good luck with the group buy.

+1 for LOD and awesome face.

Uhh guys... there's been a VIM group buy that was open for quite a while. We don't need to include it in here too if it's going to be back in R4 anyways.

So is this going to be a separate groupbuy from R4? if so that is very exciting! I guess I am probably stating the obvious, but I cant wait to get some more caps

Yes sir it is indeed outside of Round Four. I expect to start taking orders in ~2 weeks and then probably two to three weeks after that I will close orders, collect the funding, and from there it will proceed like any other Group Buy. These times are all based on things running according to plan and based on these being already-existing keys I do not expect too many hiccups.

I is excite.

TheSoulhunter · « **Reply #64 on:** Fri, 21 October 2011, 03:58:59 »

The Awesome face was my idea. LOD too.

Programmers and gamers I find aren't all that creative.

Any chance of adding it to this, or should I start a GB of my own?

definitely interested in the keyboard, keyboardman, radioactive, japan, kölsch, awesomeface, disapproval, possibly the dice. Will there be a package deal possibly? xD

I don't think that the dice would be in this group buy as it is the random key for sc2.

The Dice will not be part of the buy because it is from SC2 and the package deal comes with how many are bought of each key total; our discount is based on quantity overall for the individual keys purchased.

Because I am not familiar with that emblem, nor do I have any interest in it myself, it might be best to do it in a different group buy.

RColinTaylor · « **Reply #76 on:** Fri, 21 October 2011, 19:21:43 »

As a general update I sent out the email to Melissa today to get some color palates to work with for most of the keys. Once I can figure out the colors I can organize all of the images and have a representation, most likely by simple SVG's with colors, of each of the keys in this buy. As far as the keys to be included are concerned it looks like we will have ~10 or so but that is still up to the interest generated.

zoidbergslo · « **Reply #77 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 06:59:15 »

Interested in

Japan
Lotus
Awesome (black on yellow)
LOD (the correct one)
Maybe Star Wars too

zulios · « **Reply #78 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 09:16:05 »

Interested in the "escape with keyboard", white on red, and skull, white on black.

demik · « **Reply #79 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 09:56:00 »

If we do the imperial keycap, can we also have the option of winkey and not just row 4? And if possible two color versions, black on white and white on black for winkey and esc key.

I'd buy 8-10 of all 4 styles.

csm725 · « **Reply #80 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 10:16:58 »

LoD should be thicker.

Quote from: Ragnorock;435564

The cutter probably just didn't do a perfect cut. Looking at those three images, I'd bet they probably went with the middle over the left, but the cutter just had a difficult time doing perfect circles, they've had trouble in the past with curves from what I recall. The thick eye lines come from the cutter following the outside of the black lines, not the inside. It's hard to explain, but if you imagine tracing along the inside edge of the left eye and the outside, instead of cutting within or "on" the black line, you get that halo effect. I would prefer an awesome face in red, but that's just because I don't like yellow lol.

I don't accept this theory, because of those many keys coming out perfectly.

I think imperial & rebel winkeys would be very cool.

For what it's worth: I'm interested in those, maybe the lotus, and escape with keyboard, depending on pricing.

Seems as though a lot of people want some Starwars winkeys. I will have to do some deliberation on this.

You can expect no more than $3 for each individual key, most likely getting down to $2 in the event of ~50 orders for each, and shipping being around $6 for ConUS and ~$15 for International (The shipping is based on previous experience and not actual research for this particular buy).

Kick · « **Reply #88 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 17:52:05 »

Yeah, I estimate that unless you're buying a ton of keycaps, the small 5 dollar priority USPS box would work for ConUS.

But, it would be cheaper to do an envelope for smaller orders. I'm guessing, envelope+DC+insurance may even come out cheaper than 5 dollars, but then again, why get insurance for this ;P

Mmmm, can't wait

Yea, shipping costs are generally low when getting under 50 caps so it will be just fine on that end.

Ragnorock · « **Reply #90 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 20:35:19 »

Shipping cost for all the keys I bought was like $18, which I just covered for everyone. You can make it back by selling extras etc.

Yea, that part I am not too concerned about; even if we do hit the goal of 1000 total keys it would still be within reasonable constraints.

Ragnorock · « **Reply #92 on:** Sat, 22 October 2011, 20:50:08 »

Lol, my gb was for a total of 2365 keycaps. You should be fine on shipping. :3

So are you going to melt them down into one giant sc2 doubleshot or actually distribute them like you promised?
