It takes time, but it is possible.  Keep an eye on the classifieds, participate in the forum and make friends, and eventually you will get one.  And Bro is pretty reliable in having a sale at least every couple of months.

Keep being persistent! It took me about 5 months to get a sizeable collection and when it reached that point I realized that I didn't need so many caps so I've been shrinking it. I participate in sales for fun now and not just in it to win :)

I was pretty Bro-less for a while. I started getting into artisans just before the Cosmos Sale and was pretty bummed I didn't win any in that round. I love the design of the v2 Brobot and loved the caps from that raffle; some of them remind me of Thanos.

Then, all of a sudden, BAM. I'm swamped in Bro caps.
I ordered a Cherokey, won a Rustler, and won five from the Monster Mash sale.

I'm in the Bro-less boat too, so it's nice to see a success story.  I just need to get that post count up first haha

I'm not certain what's going on, but on my bro history page on ctrlalt it says a big red PAYMENT FAILED, but when I click into the ticked it says PAID in green. The money is out of my bank account and paypal doesn't seem to be showing any issues. Am I good?

But be patient - the poor guy has a huge backlog of PMs!

For sure, I know he's got heaps of more important stuff going on at the moment

New updates on Bro shenanigans from Bro himself!

Quote

Quick updates:


Monster Mash Sale - stuff will be shipping by the end of this week/early next week


Lycan giveaway - slowly working my way through all of the entries, hope to have winners announced later this week


MX Gamer Sets - these are still happening, but I don't have an exact date for you guys, yet


Cherokeys - shipping towards the end of the month, but IF I am able, I will try to combine shipping with Monster Mash sale items. Now, this is a big IF, so please dont ask me about it :)


Post requirements - we are still considering stuff on this, but I am leaning towards none for the next sale.






Thanks to all you cool cats for your support through all the silliness of the past few weeks <3

Bro made topre gamer sets earlier in the year. They are wasd, esc, and fn keys. They have the same texture as his other blanks. He only released topre before, so these will be the first MX sets available.

You don't. You use QWER+DF usually. Its one of my biggest pet peeves currently, especially for the "pro gamer" boards that say how they consult with esports pros, even though a the biggest E-Sports are Dota/LOL, then have textures WASD keys. Although I've seen a few keysets now that have QWERASDF as the colored gamer kits.

I mean as a mostly sc2 player the wasd keys don't do much for me... but act as location keys... and a large portion of games are fps's... it would be pretty unreasonable to expect a full moba/sc2 set lol

I really wish I had gotten in on the Cherokee, at the time I was all down on Reapers and didn't want to take anyone else's spot, but after looking at the cap more and more on ctrl/alt holy **** the detailing and work is amazing and I really wish I'd invested haha QQ
