I get this 100%. I’ve had the same reaction to a few “universally loved” games, sometimes the core loop just doesn’t click, no matter how many people swear it gets better later. If a game feels like work instead of fun early on, it’s hard to stay motivated. That’s why I usually stick with games that feel rewarding right away and let you focus on skill and moment-to-moment decisions. Lately I’ve been enjoying football games where precision actually matters, especially learning things like how to aim for corners in DFL 25. Much more engaging for me than grinding through chores and waiting 60 hours for it to “get good.

You might want to reach out on Geekhack, Deskthority, or r/MechanicalKeyboards — many experienced group-buy runners there are based in Europe and North America.

Also worth checking Discord servers like MechKeys, MKGB, or regional keyboard communities (EU/NA), where GB organizers are often active.
Hope you find someone — the IBM accessories look great.

I have not been this full of meat since that childhood Christmas dad came into my room drunk...

My guess is is that noisyturtle was pretty full of drink, too, when he wrote that.
 

What about a 10u spacebar in blue?

Will be updating kits in the coming days and ICing some new stuff - navy 10u included!
