I believe it is a reference to ClickClacks sorta hidden sale of 4/20 themed caps.

Well if that's the case I would recommend rephrasing the title. ;)

I feel so excluded from anything clack. Even though I've been able to obtain a few, it seems like so many behind-the-scenes things go on.

Awesome key cap, wish us clack peasants had a chance at them as well =/. Hope you can find one!

The criteria was basically being in forum spy to see that the sale went live at the right time and getting a PMd order in before the time ran out.  Of course the db rollback murdered a whole lot of the evidence. ;)

Scour all corners of geekhack, spend 6+ hours a day perusing geekhack, do this for months after learning about CC's skulls, and still you probably won't buy one at cost. This was one of the caps that I wanted to be made by someone, and had hoped that MAYBE CC would release this keycap on 4/20 only to realize the one day I slack on the hack, I miss out on it......And to think about the people who got it and don't even care; all they bought was a bargaining chip...****ing hurts. Oh, and by the way, you know that CC that makes your eyes widen, and your butt pucker up in your seat while you inch closer to your monitor to get a closer look at the vibrant color and detail?? The one that you see that you MUST have??? You probably won't get a shot at it in this lifetime without spending AT least 4-6 days pay on it. If I were you, I wouldn't get attached to any of them, skulls can't show love they are as heartless as the market for them. You will eventually see them in your dreams given to you on a silver platter for an unbelievable deal, or you'll just be glad you got the one you wanted, even at the price of a limb but you'll wake up the second you put that key on your keyboard without even given a real second to behold its glory, and no matter how fast or how hard you try to fall back asleep to continue that dream, you'll never be as close as putting that keycap on your keyboard as that moment before you woke. Just think of them like runway models; everybody is after them, they are sexy and they know it, they sell themselves, and won't look your way if you don't have a bajillion dollars and allllll the time in the world to devote to them.

Funny thing is I check clack's forums every couple days to see if anything goes on. Unfortunately I was away for the weekend, celebrating 4/20 in the Bay Area (Berkeley to be specific heh), and I rather have done that then camped the clack forums! Anyway, sorry for detracting your thread so much.    good luck to you wallet!

Interesting... It looks like the guy posts in that thread every time there's a sale... Subscribing to it gives you instant email updates-- could help your chances. Sorry for cluttering your thread! Thought for a second that it was a hidden sale only available to special members :P
