Will it support split backspace?

On the zFrontier post it seems that the Chinese GB is happening from 8th Sep to 11th Sep. Is this IC for a separate GB?
The GB section very clearly covers this:
Group buy
If you browse zFrontier regularly, you will probably be aware of this board.
The Chinese GB is running from Sep. 8th to 11th.
We encourage you to avoid the Chinese GB and wait for the international GB to avoid possible communication and shipping problems.
will there be a WKL blocker option?+1
If google translate works well it says it is an ultimited GB, will it be unlimited for international customers too?
+1 for WKL. Total weight for this keyboard? I kinda like fr4, one of my favorite plate material.will there be a WKL blocker option?+1

The international GB will launch once we think it is ready and will be hosted on our website https://percent.studio/ (https://percent.studio/)

Why do you run GBs for the Chinese market first? Do your Chinese buyers have to accept a lower level of quality assurance? Or do we have to accept some nationalistic favouritism? This is probably a false dichotomy, I genuinely don't understand.
Would also be interested in split backspace.Will it support split backspace?

I don't see why not...I'll ask them to add this in the next revision of renders.

Will the daughterboard for this be the same as the daughterboard used on the Volt-80 2020SS?
if I pick bluetooth version and don't have a battery, can I use it with plug-in cable like usual keyboard?
Will the Hot swap PCB support all 1.25u bottom row? Or only the non-standard layout?

Only the non-standard layout
Will the Casio colorway be part of the international group-buy? I'm based in the USA and am totally in (I will be getting the Skog-reboot not matter what, but want the Casio very much).
Since the Casio is limited, how will you guys handle the process of picking that colorway? Premium pricing or raffle/lottery? (I'm hoping for just paying extra or something). How will we select the Casio colorway in the group buy?
Also, will there be other knobs available or just the standard and the casio?

I'm not a fan of brand logo on the top, but in this case i find your logo perfect for the knob, where the bottom of the branch of the logo is the pointer of the rotary knob :) (also consider that the knob is in fact very small)
There are 2 versions of it, the difference is just the flat vs angled leg of the "pointer" (the bottom of the branch)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/HqhkH04.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/SqGeUFB.png)Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/3MgJ9bW.png)

I have a submission for the knobs as well. I can't do fancy renders like you guys, so I did my best drawing my ideas.Show Image(https://i.imgur.com/FWkQE7f.png)
And a description of my idea:
Originally, I had the idea of making artisan "caps" for the rotary encoder. I drew a few fun designs, but I know that it would be hard to implement in a mass scale. While drawing the designs on the left, however, I had the idea of "what if we made a rotary knob that had a standard mx shaped stem on it?".
I don't know the dimensions of a rotary encoder, so there would have to probably some modifications (eg. making the knob taller), but the idea is to have an mx stem mount on the knob, so you can attach your own artisan keycaps or even make your own traditionally shaped knob with an mx mount.
Hope you like my doodles! :)

Submission for rotary knob - Triskelion Rotary Knob. Not an original design, however, I thought one of the many meanings of the symbol - rebirth - fit well with the Skog-reboot. It's an ancient Celtic symbol (feel free to look it up). Excuse my poor sketch (symbol would be etched in, similar to other user's design), but I can't 3D model anything (no doubt it could be made better). For what it's worth, I like the one above using the studio logo - super well done.

I see that delivery of the GB in China ended September 11 and is expected to take 4-6 months until delivery ("under normal circumstances"). Are you planning to wait until you have finished shipping the China GB orders before you open up the international GB? Thanks!

No, the international GB is currently scheduled for mid/late November depending on prototyping progress

More details about color option can be found on https://percent.studio/pages/skog-reboot (https://percent.studio/pages/skog-reboot)
We have also sent out 8 prototypes to different reviewers.

Desert looks amazing. I can't wait to order my TKL Desert with FR4 and get it built.
