Title: Geekhack Pack Feb '13: GEEKHACK NEW VEGAS
Post by: mkawa on Mon, 04 February 2013, 08:51:18
"Green, I'm liking green", I said, downing the rest of my drink. The bar was smokey, cocktail waitresses with ironic bunny ears circled the tables behind us. "I'm not feeling it," said |3oilermaker. He was sipping a light yellow beer, or some kind of swill anyway. "Red maybe?", he said; the bartender eyed us through the light haze of secondhand smoke, the constant flashing and beeping of video poker and slot machines reflected in the mirror behind him. We were planning on making a traditional geekhack key for February. We'd been trying to decide on the color for the the last hour. We weren't getting anywhere. "Screw this," I said and stood up.

At the blackjack table. "Dark green." |3oilermaker put his cards down. "Red, man, I'm feeling it," he tapped the table and another card hit his stack. "I got it," I said, "let's roll for it. Odds we go green, evens we go red." "We don't have any dice," he said. "Well, **** then, I guess you better make some."

Do you have a link to one of those, or were they lost to the hack?

You're trying to collect them. The GEEK HA CK keys used to be monthly buys.

I miss the monthly GEEK HACK Esc keys. The ones demik was doing. Not that I don't like these special packs, but I wish we had one for just that one key again.

Yeah, but it was usually just a standard SP GH key.  The past few have been somewhat more interesting.

Sorry to derail the thread regarding Demik's 2012 GBs, but I did find a few links and I've added them to the GH Wiki at this link (http://wiki.geekhack.org/index.php?title=GeekHack_Keys#GEEK_HACK.2FHA_CK_style.2C_Esc_row.2C_1x).

When you add it to your cart, there's a feature in PayPal to figure out shipping costs.

Yep, USPS international rates almost doubled on Jan 28. Sucks for everyone, but unfortunately they are still the cheapest option for shipping from the US. Looks like it's going to stop quite a bit of the international participation in buys on here. :(

unfortunately there's nothing we can do about the new international shipping costs :(

if you want to do some low-volume distribution in your non-US home country though, talk to |3oiler about volume pricing :)

just ordered the dice set and geekhack yesterday, got the shipping notice today, wooooo

never really thought i would be into novelty caps but these look like the bomb, the January keys were good too!

seriously though, if you make a whole set with this translucent polycarb stuff and i think they would sell good. man make it kind of a dark blue or dark purple, oh man, oh man, oh man, i can dream can't i?

Any chance of getting a 7, 8, 9, 0 set of those Vegas keys? I don't know if 0 would have a "0" or nothing on it and I don't really care. Would just love to be able to all the number keys. I don't think I would be happy with just 1-6 while my 7-0 just looking so bland.

An alpha+sumbol keys set in the style of January would also be cool.

Look at a set of double nine or double twelve dominoes.

that would certainly be cool. i would repost this suggestion in the techkeys vendor subforum though, as the dice were his stroke of brilliance, and i don't think he's been following this thread very closely.

as for the next geekhack key(s), we have something really cool in production already. it should launch first week of march, and we'll offer the same style of rolling bundles for it.

I was thinking about some 10 sided RPG dice I have seen that were marked with dots. JD is right on with the dominoes though. You can look at it either way.

Done.

Also found some nice dominoes depicting the pattern
