Title: The Deskthority Awards: You're Invited
Post by: adevriesc on Tue, 21 November 2017, 23:37:39: It's that time of the year again. Bring your opinions to the table, earn a chance at winning sponsor prizes, and irritate the stodgier members of the DT userbase.

Will it be controversial? Yup. But that's half the fun. I'm not running the DTAs this year, but I'm still helping out with some things.

Feel free to get in touch with questions or comments.

Post by: adevriesc on Tue, 21 November 2017, 23:41:45: I'm sure you can trade any items you win for fried chicken gift cards.

Regardless, we will take your feedback under serious consideration.

Fried chicken is important.

I think from what I heard last year he keeps making them every year. Aren't each batch unique for each year?

No idea - haven't got one, haven't even seen one in the flesh. Well, in the plastic. If he's making them out of flesh it would explain why he's not making many keycaps any more.
