A question for the ones that took part in past hyped GBs like that where you had to be fast - What are some things that we need to watch out for when the GB goes live? I'ts my first time, don't know what to expect  ^-^

get in the first second. Anything after that and u don;t get a bb

I don't think this works that way.

AND people need to realize this isn't just about brobots.

IF you are only buying hoping to get brobots you are buying for the wrong reasons.

I'm buying for this : http://i.imgur.com/VB0Lnvp.png   Those keys are going to look so good on my new board. If I get a BB, that is just icing on the freaking cake. :D

No kidding. This buy is the reason I joined geekhack. I'm just praying I get some bros as a bonus.

I feel you there. After seeing the mockup, I realized that this set was the set that I had been dreaming about. lol. The brobots are just really cool. If I don't get them, I won't be that upset. It would just rock to get matching brobots. :D

I agree, bros are a bonus. Just cross your fingers and be happy if it happens and don't sweat it if someone else has their day/week/etc made.

I know that I don't need all my spacebars in the spacebar pack so I'll be giving away some of those at a later date, and I will also give away the T1 bro if I happen to get the bro pack.

Ctrl Alt Store is based in the UK right?

Do us English folk get slapped with the international shipping charges?

as a side note, we are so busy on the site etc, and most likely fielding questions and issues etc, the mass email will go out a bit later rather than exactly on launch

sadly yes

that shipping charge covers shipping from sp to a US proxy, from that proxy to me in the uk, and then from me in the uk to you

So add on means that you have to buy something like the Alpha in order to buy them? Alpha + deluxe addon right? I can't just buy something like the brobots or the deluxe by themselves?
