Post by: metal369 on Fri, 27 November 2015, 12:43:23
https://www.massdrop.com/vote/gmk-keycaps


The Goal is not so far. If you have massdrop ID, plz vote to GMK Olivetti T.T

Thank you!

Mod Edit: Moved this from the key caps sub-forum to the interest checks sub-forum.  Modified subject to reflect that this is for a Massdrop poll.

People seem to vote more on sets that they've seen a lot of before - there are Dolch sets all over Reddit, but hardly any Red Alert.

The circle jerking can be quite strong in the community when it comes to these sorts of things.

I don't get why the dolch is on top of the list
I mean I think Originative have some in stock and people still vote them to drop

Perhaps Dolch is popular because a lot of people actually like the way it looks. I'd personally sooner run stock keycaps than something like Red Alert.

Voted Hyperfuse, by the way :)

There are actually people letting go of their hyperfuse sets around gh and reddit
Give it a routine check

I don't think ctrlalt.io gonna run another round of hyperfuse that fast

That doesn't mean massdrop wouldn't try and run it anyway, they only care about the community to get ideas so they can make a buck.

Notice how some people only come around when it is time for them to promote a drop?

I sleep safe in the fact that if I ever have to sell off all my loot, at least I can find a Dolch kit a little easier when it comes time to buy it all back with the massive stacks of cash I've must have just found under a bridge :D

I don't even understand this poll, they literally just had two different GMK Dolch and Granite GB's, and barely met the MoQ on both.

I want to know how you can circumvent the polls (like Data, Matt3o, etc.) have done in the past.

RA needs a re-release, as does Skull Squadron. Matt's new Topre set is very close to SS but I would much rather have cherry caps.

Since GMK Dolch is currently active on Massdrop I doubt they will choose it again, if they look at the poll they would likely pass on Dolch and hopefully fun Olivetti.

I happen to like Dolch, but its presence in this poll is puzzling.

Not a fan of Red Alert or Olivetti, however.   :-X

At least everyone can agree that Dolch being on the poll doesn't make sense.

That's most polls on massdrop. Keysets that wont ever be rerun, razer/corsair production keyboards, and votes for options that don't relate to the topic posted are at the top of a lot of polls.

i hope massdrop would do custom colors for olivetti, or at least fix the incorrect legend, f5-f8 color, and the tab key.

For bypassing the MD polls you need to contact them directly.  I believe that was done with Troubled Minds, linking to an IC post here on GH.  The IC thread was deemed sufficient to skip the voting and it went straight to GB run if I'm not mistaken.  Though thesiscamper would have more information on this.

If you want something run, create mockups for it and get an IC thread up, then contact MD.  It seems more effective than the randomness of their voting system where polls are left up for months on end.

It is very interesting to see that most post here ignore Olivetti and they are just commenting against Dolch.

I own an original Olivetti set but I use primarily ANSI layouts, so I would be interested in mods and moogle kits.

DOLCH LOOKS TERRIBLE. Seriously though, red alert, hyperfuse or olivetti

How is TA higher than RA?  I mean 1000+ buyers on TA who the hell missed out?

Probably all the people who want a 2nd run now that issues have *supposedly* been fixed.

I agree though, RA should be higher. It's the one set I'd really want from this list.

I think, anyone can add more products to a poll at any time, therefore there is no advantage opening a new one, while it may end with another products, again.

I was wondering about that.  I've yet to create a poll on MD and wasn't sure how much control over the options the poll creator has.

If RGBK is anything to go by, MD are actually pretty to go with for GMK buys as they're logistics team are very very quick at getting stuff out
