Hello! Make sure you check "0" if you are not buying anything from that particular variant. Unfortunately, this is the only method for requiring responses that Google Docs supports for grids.
Thank you for including the "0" which didn't show on my first form when filled, only 1,2,3 and 4 columns had been presented.
Placed order and now waiting for the official bill to arrive :thumb: .

Haha sorry, I can't believe I forgot the "0". Thanks! :D

Now, on to more important questions...which one would be the "standard" size? 1.5mm?

The first option! Although it really depends on your keycap profile. For example, 1.5mm isn't ideal for SA haha.

Depends upon the key profile you are currently using which are a lot here on Geekhack central.
I like the different sizes being presented for sale here because you can successfully dampen DSA's, Cherry Profiled (normal), OEM and believe it or not even the SA can be damped with a few 3mm silicone rings applied per key.

Yeah, right now I'm using the 70a? from Amazon (the $3 ones) and it almost seems as if though they shorten the throw of these Cherry profiled caps, but are fine for OEM profile...that's why I was wondering. I guessi it wouldn't hurt to buy a bit of both and experiment...I mean, I only have...6 keyboards...
Edit: These are the ones... (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FMWLR8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00) and it appears as if they're 1.5mm thick...I definitely can't do any thicker than them...

70A must be horrible to type on. I can't imagine how stiff they are.
-
To be honest, they aren't that bad, I mean, realistically they're no worse than typing without them. They do what I need...and that's dampen sound....I just need clears for my next build because of the backlighting...But if the 1.5mm clears are anything like the banggood ones...they're just a hair too thin, so I'm trying to decide between 2 and 1.5....

Not at all especially if they are certified Korean made springs :thumb: .
Always loved the heavy springs because my paws are heavy-gauge hence they need some resistance to type effectively, like watching a bear type.

70A refers to the durometer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shore_durometer) of the O-rings, not the stiffness of the springs.
