this one time in band camp, i played the trumpet.

Hey man, I played trumpet... in band. Never went to camp tho.

Me too!

Also, I know who sent these. This person admitted it with several pieces of photo evidence (which also served to prove the adorableness of his cat) somewhere on the internet in a public thread. I won't say who though, because that would ruin the fun of watching you all squirm

My only regret is not having my address in this legendary person's address book T.T

lol do you mean ripster?

mkawa · « **Reply #902 on:** Sat, 03 November 2012, 00:14:17 »

he has claimed to have sent them several times. however, he has not presented any evidence that corroborates this story, and i can think of several reasons offhand why it is highly unlikely that the culprit is him.

Sifo · « **Reply #903 on:** Sat, 03 November 2012, 00:16:49 »

Because it's you...

Like I said, I'm not going to say who. But the evidence is out there if you look hard enough.

Who is it, Bry? Tell us now!

reaper · « **Reply #910 on:** Sun, 04 November 2012, 12:14:02 »

Yes, Bryan. Please do share. Someone with a cat? Is it ripster, whiskerbox, etc?

Sifo · « **Reply #911 on:** Sun, 04 November 2012, 12:15:58 »

I stopped following this thread but now I'm interested again :\ tell us! Don't make us work hard qq

So, there are more of the first mystery keycaps in circulation. We went to SP yesterday for our meet up. In our goodie bags, we each received a blue mystery keycap. I have 2 of them now. Anyone want to trade your orange/black mystery keycap for one of my blue ones?

Sifo · « **Reply #913 on:** Sun, 04 November 2012, 14:14:39 »

I still want a blue one >=(

Silly reaper. Ripster is a dog person and whiskerbox IS a cat! Cats can't mail items. srsly

(incoming cat lovers... "Sure they can and they can lick their asses while flying the space shuttle". Incredible creatures, these cats)

Really? I thought he has at least one cat. lol Oh well, I heard demik just got some kittens also so it might be him!

AriesX · « **Reply #920 on:** Sun, 11 November 2012, 00:58:51 »

so im fairly new to the community, and i was wondering if there is a screw loose in ripsters head? i checked out his subreddit and all he does is ***** and moan about geekhack.. why does he have such a vendetta against this website?

jdcarpe · « **Reply #921 on:** Sun, 11 November 2012, 01:11:58 »

At one time, he was a valued member of this community. He contributed greatly to the wiki, and to overall knowledge and Keyboard Science. He tried to help n00bs, without making them feel like idiots for asking questions. He considered himself to be the #1 Keyboard Expert on the Planet.

Then something happened, and I'm not sure quite what it was. He had arguments with some members, and got himself banned for a short time. When he came back, he quickly evolved into nothing but a troll. Got himself permanently banned from GH. Then the R00tW0RM incident took down GH, and we all found temporary refuge on Deskthority, until iMav, mkawa, and the other admins could get the site rebuilt. Big thanks to webwit for allowing us to camp there, now that I mention it. While there, ripster got himself banned from DT, as well. Now he has resigned himself to Reddit, and still holds a grudge, as you say.

AriesX · « **Reply #922 on:** Sun, 11 November 2012, 01:16:22 »

Thanks for the thorough explanation! It's a bit strange to me that all he is bad mouth this place but yet he seems to monitor this site like its his job

litster · « **Reply #923 on:** Sun, 02 December 2012, 17:44:45 »

what happened to those mystery keycaps that whiskerbox sent out?

jdcarpe · « **Reply #924 on:** Sun, 02 December 2012, 17:54:22 »

whiskerBox sent 5 to tjcaustin and 4 to NikoGasm. I got one from tjcaustin, and, I'm guessing here, so did The_Beast, kmiller8, and kellybear. I think NikoGasm was sending 3 to Alessandro, but I lost the thread after that.

rowdy · « **Reply #925 on:** Sun, 02 December 2012, 17:56:44 »

For a second there I thought someone was going to say they received a round 3 mystery ~~kawa~~ keycap.

Halverson · « **Reply #926 on:** Sun, 02 December 2012, 17:59:48 »

I have one mystery cap, from round 2

Glissant · « **Reply #940 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 08:45:51 »

The only thing that I actually care about when it comes to these is why the people that get them are chosen.
I enjoy that I got the white on blue one, but am wondering what I did right/wrong to not deserve the second one =p.

alaricljs · « **Reply #941 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 09:52:04 »

If I recall correctly, people who were picked to help distribute the 2nd one were given explicit instructions to distribute to people that did not receive the 1st one.

Glissant · « **Reply #942 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 10:00:12 »

Then I didn't receive the first one *whistle innocently*

rowdy · « **Reply #943 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 13:13:46 »

When I saw this thread resurrected, I thought maybe there was a third one doing the rounds.

jdcarpe · « **Reply #944 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 13:26:49 »

Third round, but second version keycap. Seems like Europe/Asia this time?

sordna · « **Reply #945 on:** Thu, 07 February 2013, 13:44:42 »

You've seen the mystery sender's twitter page, right? It was posted on DT the other day
