equaluniqueOh look another ignorant comment.
Laser, Nautilus & Yuri did and I don't think any of them technically made MOQ yet MD covered the difference.
Don't type like like an elitist hipster and simultaneously expect everyone to cater to you. You are literally the .0001%

mzipfLol, not anger at all, I'm quite aware of where I am, son. Don't post a comment without getting your facts straight. As I pointed out, the last 3 GMK drops had Dvorak support and they didn't even get MOQ and barely struggled at that (yet SATAN himself MD paid for them anyway)
Don't post ignorant, uneducated comments & hate the big daddy player, hate the GAME.

schoolbusAlternative-layout users are happy to pay through the nose for supporting kits when they're offered. It can be damn annoying when (in the case of SA Oblivion) the Colevrak kits are the same price as the complete alphas, for far fewer keys, but we still pay it.
I can understand the disappointment of seeing a great set, wanting to buy, but not having the layout support that exists but isn't provided.
The 'lolo u elitist hipster 0.0001% sux 2 be u' attitude... can't understand that one.

schoolbusI didn't see any evidence of hate for Massdrop, but you're correct. I think we should be allowed to point out when a keyset doesn't include compatibility that we would like -- how else would anyone know that there's some demand?

climbalimaEhh there's simply not enough of us (alternative layout users) interested in any given keyset, but the fact remains that most of us are willing to pay for the privilege of supporting kits :)

schoolbusIt has been pointed out that MD does not buy out the rest of the sets to make MOQ (or at least entirely), instead GMK agrees to make them below MOQ after the order is submitted; It is not like it is just 4 or 5 kits sold, it's more like 4 or 5% of all buyers. Yuri, Nautilus, and Laser all went through
It is more cosmetic as most alt layout typers like myself are touch typers (i mean if not you really are wasting your time), but it is still pretty awesome to own as a collector and is great for others to join what you call the hipsters. You are spending upwards of 3 bills for plastic injection molded key caps imported from Germany which used the same tooling as historic cherry brand key caps, seriously everyone buying in are hipsters; I am not ashamed.
Edit: I should be transparent that I would not join even if they did add it, I am not in love with messing with Dolch colorway. I am just defending Colevrak buyers
