maybe the in focus will allow some people to appreciate the beauty in comparison

I can't read that third letter, I see the T and E, but what's that last one? H? TEH do you have TEH board?

I think it might be a K. TEK?

lol not my problem and i honestly don't care what the name is.. i just hate that they didn't put the beetle name on it, or put some kind of a beetle graphic design. the keyboard is honestly very minimalist.

tex beetle

wow that is WAY out of foucs

does it ever occur to you nobody unintentionally take photo out of focus and unintentionally post it online?

Yes i do it myself using my Lensbaby optic but not to the point that you have no idea what the subject is.

Need at least 100 posts in order to qualify for the goodies . But thanks for the picture

[Glissant]

Blurry picture of something with less than 20 posts. Totally how to enter this giveaway =D.

Which reminds me; I'll ask for shipping for the keyboards. I am thinking I could ship one when I get to the states if we have a winner from there. People in the rest of the world will have to bite the bullet if they want a keyboard.
I realize that it makes this less of a giveaway and more of a "get the chance to buy a really cheap Filco+caps for only shipping"-thing, but yeah. That's how it is at the moment.

[Melvang]

totally fine with me.  I would gladly pay the shipping to get a filco TKL

[VesperSAINT]

+1 to that

[metalliqaz]

[BunnyLake]

i will bite the bullet sir

me me me

[foxer]

I'll have to pass since I'm broke as a joke. Good luck to whoever wins and it was fun entering.

[nubbinator]

I can pay U.S. shipping, but any other shipping would be outside of my price range.

[rarar]

I'd pay shipping from anywhere! I really want dat numpad <3 but the filcos are sweet too

[fydo]

I would bite any bullet for one of these awesome keyboards. Pow!

[Binge]

Fildo always pays.  COD is for con artists.

<3 Glissant

[jdcarpe]

If foxer wins, I'll pay the shipping.

[VesperSAINT]

If foxer wins, I'll pay the shipping.

Photekq had a pretty nice twist video

Photekq had a pretty nice twist video

I'd agree with this. There's a chance Photekq is going to be glad for my guilt tripping him to do it.

Man, now I wish I had gone and done the twist instead of telling the story of my Keys of Doom (F2 set).

Do both. Editing offer still stands. 'Okay' will come if you decline.

[Sifo]

My favourite keyboard-related item.

Hehehe, I see what you're doing ~ I like my F2 and the story was important to me It's just unfortunate that the story is kind of very specific and related to an uncommon subject (anime).

[Dubsgalore]

i posted a pic of my poker LOL
so much effort involved

There was immense peer pressure for a twist video ... but we'll see about it

I actually had, "I might do a video even if it doesn't count just for the lulz," but I edited that part out before anyone saw it but I'll put it in this post just because of the okay.gif )

[Glissant]

Oh yeah. I'm ending this tomorrow .

[lyrill]

Oh yeah. I'm ending this tomorrow .

can;'t believe there is a 100 post rule.. what's that for?

[nubbinator]

Oh yeah. I'm ending this tomorrow .

can;'t believe there is a 100 post rule.. what's that for?

Because it's his giveaway?

More likely to make sure it goes to someone more active in the community.  When I've run contests for Reddit's /r/buildapc, I always have a minimum post and minimum length of membership rule.

[BunnyLake]

Oh yeah. I'm ending this tomorrow .

im am sooooo ready for that beautiful red board

[Glissant]

can;'t believe there is a 100 post rule.. what's that for?

It used to be 150.

im am sooooo ready for that beautiful red board

Who knows what Père Noël will bring the most beloved Bunny on the forum.

[BunnyLake]

hoodies arrive thursday lunchtime hehe

hope your good glissbro

long time no speaky

Well look at it from my viewpoint, someone with one mech k eyboard since winter could easily have 1000 post here already, there are a lot of people that like to post a ton, but I just go on board to geekhack because I was using some Chinese server cus I didn't really know about this Geekhack being a site I can come to for mech stuff. Sure I heard of it, but I just registered a few weeks ago. I don't know why maybe I was posting about Tex beetle

[Glissant]

It's to avoid people making extra accounts just to try to get another entry.

Who knows if you could've gotten an entry if you did something interesting instead of question what I have set as a limit. This isn't a democracy, and the world isn't fair.

You just joined, so it's the perfect time to start getting active if you are looking to get in on future giveaways. This will be my last one, but don't let that stop you from trying to enjoy the rest of this awesome community.

their should be no sense of entitlement here, glissbro was nice enough to offer up some of his boards to give away, he is not obliged to do so, he can set any terms he likes, it is entirely his prerogative, and setting a post limit is a completely reasonable limitation

[Glissant]

I think red suits you, Bunny .

[BunnyLake]

I think red suits you, Bunny .

ill soon find out 

[foxer]

So the red Filco is Bunny's... Who has won the green is the question?!

[nubbinator]

I think red suits you, Bunny .

Good, I liked the green better anyways 

And when was a blank face added?

you are just making me look bad aren't you? I mean do you think I even care about what subtext there is regarding what circumstances resulted in whatever rules? I purely thought 100 posts limit not understandable, and he replied it used to be more, well I am ok with that, but you start all these "it's supposed to be like that you new-on-forum guy)

[BunnyLake]

So the red Filco is Bunny's... Who has won the green is the question?!

sshhhhhh

you will give the surprise away

although, if by some stroke of luck i do get the red one, i have a hid liberation device spare i will send to the winner of the green if they wanted it

im not gonna take over glissbros awesome thread, so this will be my one response, but that isnt even close to what i said and i really dont appreciate you putting words into my mouth, it isnt me you need to worry about making you look bad, you seem to be doing a good enough job of that yourself

[nubbinator]

you are just making me look bad aren't you?

Nope. He's just making truthful observations.  It's Glissant's giveaway, he can run it however he wants and complaining about the post requirement does come off as entitled.  When I run contests for /r/buildapc and people complain about the rules, it makes me not want to run contests in the future.  When people say I'm sad I don't qualify, hopefully I do in the future, congratulate the winner, and say thanks for the contest, it makes me more likely to do contests in the future that they may qualify for.

That's why when there have been other awesome giveaways that I didn't qualify for because of my posts, I just said thanks for the awesome giveaway, congratulated the future winner, and moved on.  Doing that is far more endearing that complaining about the limit.

Good luck to everyone!

im am sooooo ready for that beautiful red board
