Drop Mech Keys Meetup Recap - Thanks for Visiting!
As you may have seen, we just hosted our first meetup in quite a while here at Drop HQ (Corsair HQ, but they seem to like us enough :) )! It was a blast to get to meet so many enthusiasts local to the bay area—it had been 10 years since I was last hanging out with keyboard nerds in the bay, at KeyCon 2014. We had a great time hosting everyone at the offices, checking out all the very nice boards y'all brought, and sharing some of our own projects/spaces! I knew it would be fun to host in the Game Room when I first saw it in person, but seeing it come to fruition was still so cool. Alright, I'll stop blabbering on now. xD Picture time! (Oh, real quick - there will be more of these! Stay tuned for more info and to catch the next one!)

Way better than the graphs that we are seeing from MassDrop, let me tell you. If @dvorcol was to create a graph just based on this comment, it would be the most tremendous, amazing graph. Really the best graphs people.
There doesn't seem to be any other way to interperate the above. Then for a single 108 key Ergo Pro Keyset it should cost over $10,000.
Is this correct? As of writing this reply the price of one gram of gold is $43.03 [1] and the average weight of a standard OEM profile TaiHao doubleshot keycap is about ~1.2g[2]. Given these numbers and the above graph it would seem that MiTo keycaps (on average) out price gold by weight.
[1] https://goldprice.org/ [2] Weights taken from 30 semi-random keycaps taken from a grab bag with equal distributions on each row type.
Just curious, do you find the meaning more clear on Massdrop's spreadsheet?
[Edit: just looked at your Danger Zone drop and saw "pack" is indeed used instead of "kit", while the whole thing is still called a "set". Is "pack" a military term in keeping with that set's theme?]
