My congratulations to Cactux, Son of Gnome, F u r u y á, WhiteFireDragon, CaiSter21 who only bought only one key caps!

If it wouldn't have been for reaper, tanooki, demik, feng, Kisakuku, jil_jil32, rainb1ood and mmmty who each bought four key caps (and Dox, three), 23 more geekhackers would have been very happy to be able to add a very special key to their collection. Overall satisfaction and happiness would have been spread a lot better.
I apologize, but I think 1 of each making it one set was pretty fair, I did not allow more then that. Trust me I would rather have more so I can satisfy everyone's order then have a bunch of people empty handed. I had the chance to bring this limited GB over and it being limited even at 1 per person someone wouldn't be happy

On the other hand
Cactux - got 2
Son of Gnome - only wanted blue
F u r u y á - would have taken all 4 if it was available
WhiteFireDragon - would have taken all 4 if it was available

So please do not blame the other users, if you wish to blame someone I will take the fire, but I think it was pretty fair.

23?  Please show your work!

There are 40 keycaps in total.  Since 7 people bought 4, 3 people could have bought a keycap, giving us a total of 23(+2 from Dox who bought 3).

In other news, would anyone be willing to sell me one of these? :p

Wait until everyone gets their keycaps first and if I don't like mine, I'll put them up for sale in Classifieds same price I paid in OP plus shipping in US.  Don't hold your breath though. =D

When did I say I wanted all 4? You probably don't remember because all the chaos from PMs, but I PM'ed you for ONE red, but you said mmmty beat me by 20 seconds, so I took the yellow one instead. No, I was not greedy, had no interest in blue or green. Btw, why didn't you get one for yourself?

I think some people need to chill. Sometimes you gotta be fest (or lucky). There will be more awesome keycaps later, if not these specifically.

Me, I had a chance, and didn't go for it, as I didn't really like the style thus allowing other geekhackers to get in. I hope they like their keycaps!

That said, wouldn't these look great with aluminium keys on a typenow solid?

I have a Typenow but no aluminum (zinc) keys. Almost got a set from feng but he didn't have blanks. Maybe qtan can get some for me.

Everybody knows you gotta be fast - especially in classifieds. I usually miss something special like this.

edit: wait I just realized I never got any kind of tracking for this yet. Maybe that PM got lost during the last few days of database corruption/hack? There was a couple PM I didn't get to read yet before it got lost.
