you think you guys could hurry up a little

you think you could make your own tester

Zing!

Received some MX white switches from MrInterface (SirClickAlot on GH). They are clicky like blues, but heavier. Will probably replace one of the blue switches on each tester with a white.

Oh man i am so interested in this! But i don't think i can be patient enough to wait

i am selling my das keyboard soon and really want to get a CM quickfire rapid with reds but it would be nice to try out all the switches so i can make a (hopefully) final decision on what switch i want to stick with. I would have to go even longer without a mechanical keyboard and i don't know if i can do that lol. But add me to the list anyways! Grove City, PA

Would there be any chance of the Mx tester getting fitted with ghetto greens?

hashbaz · « **Reply #657 on:** Thu, 05 April 2012, 22:13:36 »

There's not really much room for anything else. If you have a suggestion for a new layout, I'm open to it though.

spanyam · « **Reply #658 on:** Fri, 06 April 2012, 13:03:00 »

I'm very interested to try this out as well. Tustin, CA (Socal).

hashbaz · « **Reply #659 on:** Tue, 17 April 2012, 23:59:49 »

Ok everyone, sorry for the lengthy delays. I've just PMd around 30 of you re participation in round 2. I suspect some of those I PMd will not be interested anymore, so if you didn't get a PM there is still a chance.

I'll post the routes once I receive everyone's addresses.

Input Nirvana · « **Reply #660 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 00:33:42 »

I just replied to your PM. I'd have it for 2-3 days tops before moving it on. I'm near San Francisco.

paulcalypse · « **Reply #661 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 08:12:55 »

Glad to get the next round started. I responded to the PM. I am just starting to look into buying another mechanical, so it would be perfect timing as I have been wanting to test out some more switch types!

The Ricker · « **Reply #662 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 08:55:38 »

Responded to the PM. Glad to see Round 2 starting!

Appeac · « **Reply #663 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 08:57:40 »

No-PM, sadface.

Hopefully there's a lot of no-shows, I am between buying red or brown on my next board.

Since this thread has gotten huge, would it be better to start a new thread for the Spring 2012 Tour?

Internetlad · « **Reply #665 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 09:41:51 »

due to a cash crunch I'm still waiting to buy my first cherry board (have an M and a Unicomp), and since the government decided to give me some of my of my money back, this will work out great, pm'd back and i'm still interested for sure

Yes, I think it would. I'll start a new thread when I have the addresses and routes finalized.

I'm interested, in Vancouver BC Canada

I sent out for addresses a while ago, so I just have to figure out the route and give litster the first address. I'll do that tonight.

Ahh Cool, thanks for all your work.

hashbaz · « **Reply #671 on:** Wed, 18 April 2012, 23:22:31 »

Ok only six Canadians responded to my address request. I sorted them west to east since Litster is in Washington. Three of you guys are in Toronto, so this should go pretty quick.

1. Snowmill
2. fantus
3. nar
4. heuristicist
5. CanadaRox
6. birthdaymonkey

Definitely interested! I'm in Berkeley, CA.

CubedRoot · « **Reply #673 on:** Thu, 19 April 2012, 14:43:42 »

I replied to the IM with my shipping details. Thanks for putting me on the list!!!

CheddarTrek · « **Reply #674 on:** Mon, 23 April 2012, 16:11:10 »

I'm interested -- Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA

As for how interested? I've only ever gotten to try Blue, Red, and Black Cherry MX switches... and I had to take time out of a Skiing Vacation in Colorado to find a MicroCenter in Denver to do that. From what I can tell no one remotely close to here sells mechanicals apart from maybe a Razer at a Best Buy in another town.

I expect it'll be a while (if ever), but looking forward to it. Brilliant idea dude!

Thanks. A few of the second round people haven't responded with their addresses, so I'm going to send out another round of PMs to fill their spots. You might get in.

Been lurking for a long time now and really want to purchase a mechanical... Is there a post requirement for this? If not, I would like to join
I live in Los Angeles.

Name suggestion: The CherryPicker

Was going to provide a name of my own, but simply cannot top cherrypicker. Superb, falerus

For future reference, I am in the UK but would dearly love an international tour. Count me in. Thanks!

hashbaz · « **Reply #679 on:** Sun, 29 April 2012, 22:42:33 »

PMd a few extra people to fill spots in round 2.

smknjoe · « **Reply #680 on:** Thu, 03 May 2012, 20:53:52 »

The Cherry Picker - how could you go wrong?

hashbaz · « **Reply #681 on:** Mon, 07 May 2012, 01:03:14 »

I (finally!) have all three testers modded and ready to go. They should ship out early this week. Look for a new thread to track progress.

heuristicist · « **Reply #682 on:** Sat, 12 May 2012, 14:57:49 »

Aw... I'm only in Toronto for another three weeks

. Although I might be back the week of June 11, not sure yet... :/

You won't make round 2, but I'll put you on the list.

Speaking of round 2, THE TESTERS HAVE SHIPPED! I PMd tracking info to the initial recipients and will put up a new thread in a bit.

hashbaz · « **Reply #685 on:** Wed, 16 May 2012, 03:54:55 »

New thread is up.
