| − | Sup kids, I'm CPTBadAss (CPT is the US Army abbreviation of Captain). I first discovered GeekHack while doing research for my Filco Majestouch 2. I stumbled upon DanGWanG's blog and saw the Red Alert set. Of course I had to find out what they were and eventually I wound up lurking GeekHack. Now I spend my time spamming, writing reviews, and helping out on various projects. But mostly spamming.

It has some information on Clack materials, vendors, colors, and prices (Retail and Second-hand). This spawned the Clack Wiki thread. The second-hand price section is being updated constantly but the information and colors will be most up-to-date in the Clack Wiki. If you see any issues with the Wiki, please PM me on GeekHack and I'll take care of it.

| − | ===Simple Questions Simple Answers===
| |
| − | I started [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40501.0 this thread] so that people could ask random questions and get answers. More deviously, it was a way for me to learn more about many random keyboard and GH related things. Have a question? Post there and I'll hunt down an answer.

| |
| − | To go along with the [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=34959.0 GH60], The_Beast designed a [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39787.0 amazing aluminum case]. I helped answer a few questions, offered some design help, and checked the drawings that The_Beast sent out for quotes. Please check it out and consider picking it up. It's really awesome. And the cases can be anodized to have [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39787.msg821179#msg821179 sexy colors].

| − | ===Tofu101 (TKL Alps Board Project)===
| |
| − | I really fell in love with clicky Alps switches but I don't like that most Alps boards came in the old school style cases. I'm more into the modern layouts (Like a Filco Zero) so I decided I'd mod my own. I bought a Ducky 1087XM with Linear Black Alps clones, a Dell AT101W with Tactile Black Alps, and a Focus FK-2001 with Clicky White Alps. I'm going to mod the Dell case using [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=9542.0 this guide]. Then take the switches out of the Focus and put them into the Ducky's PCB, so I don't have to rewire the matrix. And then re-assemble this whole Franken-board.

I want to send around a Tipro with different caps so that I can help people understand how different cap materials (ABS, PBT, POM, etc) will feel. I also acquired a [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41117.0 Mr. Interface Switch Try Bag] for the tour. I'm hoping to have this ready to send out in late May or June 2013. If you'd like to help me out, please PM me!

| − | == '''Reviews''' ==
| |
| − | I started writing as a hobby in 2011. On Geekhack, I've been writing some of my thoughts on keyboards and related goodies. Please check 'em out and let me know if you find them helpful. I'm always looking for feedback on both these and on [http://www.teamliquid.net/blog/cptbadass my blog on TeamLiquid], a prominent StarCraft 2 community/forum/team.

| − | ===Filco TenKeyPad===
| |
| − | This a review I wrote about the [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=39992.0 Filco Majestouch Tenkeypad]. It's just the numberpad and nothing else. It's got MX Brown switches.

| − | ===Leopold FC700R===
| |
| − | This board was my [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41048.0 first TKL board]. It was my daily driver at home. Apparently it's a little hard to come by unless you want to pay for a proxy but I got lucky and scored a good deal on it. It's a really great board and probably the best impulse buy I've made on GeekHack.

| − | ===Mr. Interface Switch Try Bag===
| |
| − | The [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=41117.0 Mr. Interface Switch Try Bag] is a baggie that has multiple switches in it. And when I mean multiple, I mean most easily attained switches. It's actually a ridiculous deal for what you get out of it. It's how I figured out that MX Whites were on the same level as MX Blues for me (AKA my favorites).

Please check it out since I met a lot of cool people there and tried out a ton of boards. I also wrote this [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=40116.msg852138#msg852138 silly writeup describing my thoughts of everyone I met] in lieu of a group photo.
