[IC] "Troubled Minds" - a Joker/Eva01 inspired set - Up on Massdrop!

[thesiscamper]

Rather than a color modifier you could go for a reverse scheme. Green alphas and purple mods.

Edit: typo.

I'm not sure about that, the split will affect MOQ and pricing, not to mention green alphas will have less contrast with the novelties. You'll end up with a green set with a handful of purple keys... offering novelties in both purple and green will split the sets and affect the pricing and MOQ some more I guess.

[Elrick]

Rather than a color modifier you could go for a reserve scheme. Green alphas and purple mods.

I think in it's current scheme, this set has a nice balance. The green might seem too overpowering.

This is a scheme based on the "Joker" and trust me he's no pvssy when it comes to all out lunacy, maybe why I love that character above all the other fantasy types coming from Hollywood these days.

Capture his style and his absolute crazy manner because this is what makes this key-set shine for me personally.  When you go "SAFE" it then becomes another PG10 edition only suitable for kiddie links and retired old pensioners.

You want to step out in style and not be hampered by the minority wanting something quiet and morose.  When you're dead go that way but whilst your alive, go for the MADNESS  .

[thesiscamper]

I realized I need to add 6.5 spacebar and specify Colemak/Dvorak homing keys.

[tofgerl]

I really can't decide if I'm going to buy this... I ordered Carbon and Round 5a already, which will hopefully be here before this kit were made, which counts against it. The colors honestly couldn't be used at work, which counts against it. But then it's frakking awesome, and that counts heavily in favor...

I missed both sets, learned about them a little too late. You still have around a week to decide, and at least you already have two awesome sets to look forward to.

It's always a good time to buy decent key-sets, especially this Colour-way here.

Also what place do you work at that would scowl at these babies?  All you have to do is get that boss of yours to turn that frown upside down and enjoy the MADNESS  .

[Otesanek]

This is so amazing. I really like this set. If I am already signed up on Massdrop will I automatically be notified when the group buy is started?

If you're currently receiving email updates then yes, if not I think you need to subscribe.

[Otesanek]

I am definitely receiving email updates from Massdrop, I was wondering if there was some other section I needed to subscribe to. I am fairly new to this community... How do group buys like this work? Are there going to be a finite amount of sets made? Or are they produced based on the amount of people who buy in? Sorry if these are dumb questions, I just really want to purchase this set.

Yes, amount produced is based on amount of orders received, and if I'm not mistaken Massdrop orders extra kits. I think there have been cases where some people missed a drop but were able to buy extra kits from Massdrop. As long as your account in Massdrop is subscribed to the mechanical keyboard community you should be able to receive updates relevant to it.

[Niomosy]

To add to the MassDrop kits, they unloaded their leftovers recently with a massive sale on all kinds of extras they had from various sets.

Now to decide if I should get that RK930 55g or just wait for a NovaTouch 45g.

[Elrick]

Now to decide if I should get that RK930 55g or just wait for a NovaTouch 45g.

No choice really, GET the 55g RK930 because it stands out as the FIRST all 55g that can take any type of key-caps that were ever made or ever likely to be made  .

I'm an MX reds kind of guy so I'm somewhat concerned about the 55g RK.  Though I'm still mighty tempted.

[thesiscamper]

I'm currently trying to figure out which legends have issues with the tooling and will be adjusting them later. SP's way of communicating needs improvement, like saying some legends won't work but not pointing out which ones, or which part of the legend is problematic. So we have to mail back and forth for this piece of information that should've been given in the first email. The time zone difference adds to the delay, so I'll maybe email an update this morning, get it the next day, and I'll send an update and wait the next day.

Having used both a 55g Realforce and RK, the latter feels lighter. I'd say the RK is closer to 45-50g, and it's a keyboard I very highly recommend.

You've heard it folks, time to step up to some decent Thorpie action even if you have limpy wrists and weak fingers because this keyboard will make a man of you  .

Solid.  45g feels a bit light for me on reds but blacks were good but definitely a bit heavy for full-day use.  Sounds like this might be worth trying out.

Damn.  The RK, Troubled Minds set, the upcoming Dasher and possibly Dancer sets, plus potentially picking up an Axios.  RIP my wallet.  At least I'm relatively prepared for it, though

No more red clown lips?

Not possible with doubleshot SA

Well damn.  Guess I'm staying up a bit later than I'd expected (like maybe 5 minutes longer )

I think MD wants to erase the memory of the Otaku ordeal.

Found it.  Odd, I had to go into Discover and scroll all the way down.  They need to improve that system a bit.  Link for those that might need it:

My bad I posted too early, just so excited

[Niomosy]

I'm in.  Got the base + numpad for now but I'll keep checking pricing and hopefully pick up the novelties as well.   Also noticed this which cracks me up.

To avoid errors/confusion with the current checkout system, we will be changing the drop points manually for this drop. We are paying attention to the number of each child deal being bought as well. If they reach certain quantities, we will adjust their prices accordingly. You may notice fluctuations in your checkout price as we make these adjustments on the back end, but you will not be charged more for anything.

That's odd.  That's part of the problem from Otaku.  I would have thought MD would learn from that but apparently not.

I'm guessing posting the lowest possible price presents a problem when it doesn't reach MOQ.  Will it be better if all drop points are displayed in the main page from the beginning? I'll ask.

Yeah, I think a lot of people are used to seeing multiple price points on many MD runs.  It gives a clearer concept that the price will drop should more people buy in.  It seems to provide a bit more comfort for some people to buy in.

Fortunately, your starting price points were pretty solid so I'm hopeful that the results will be good.

[kokokoy]

Nice. Though don't see your renders. We need those in the description to ramp up the nos.

[Niomosy]

10 in already.  Off to a good start.
