I tweeted a HHKB but then I saw the [ctrl]alt 60. Dammit. Regardless, both awesome keyboards, haha.

Thanks for the giveaway, intelli!

Retweeted it here https://twitter.com/captainjey a few weeks ago, but forgot to reply here!

My dream keyboard would be the HHKB Type S. It's got such a classic look to it! (and my gf thought that Topre switches look cool ;))

I only do twitter now for information on things and don't really tweet. I would like to enter, however.

My dream board from that list would be the [CTRL] ALT 60 because it would finally give me the swift kick in the butt to start building a board.

Good luck to everyone who has entered and thanks for doing this giveaway.

Congrats to the finalists!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

For those like me who don't play the lotto and have no clue when any of this happens, this should be a countdown to the Powerball draw since it looks like it's supposed to happen at 10:59EST.

I hope it goes to a member of GH or reddit rather than some random person who's just going to flip it. :)
I listened to the live video feed earlier and they were talking about how there aren't very many consistent contributors on this site - it's because of stuff like this. I was hesitant to join and even more nervous about posting because of all the unwritten rules that exist here, but even more so because of all the animosity towards reddit from heavy posters like yourself. There is not nearly as much open hatred of GH on r/mk - most of it is from one guy.

Obviously the two communities are different, but it seems to me that all of the hostility stems from u/ripster and no matter what happened with him here that's no reason to generalize all of r/mk. The main difference is that people on reddit are new to mechanical keyboards (generally), if people here were more welcoming, more r/mk users would come over and be able to use the awesome knowledge base that exists on GH. Those people would learn and eventually be able to contribute new stuff, which would benefit everyone.

Really though I rarely see anything about GH on reddit, but everyday I'm here someone talks **** about r/mk - if you want new users then it needs to stop. I'm sorry I don't mean to create a flame war on this thread which is full of generosity for both groups but this is like the third time today I've seen something like that on here.

I wasn't ****ting on Reddit, I was just wishing that someone here would win it.   I know there's a greater chance of pictures and follow up if a GH user wins it as opposed to someone on Reddit or a rando on Twitter.  I've run enough large contests on Reddit with my sub, /r/buildapc,to know how things usually go.

Anyways, this is off topic and not relevant to the thread other than someone trying to stir up drama.  Let's keep it on topic.
