May I ask something DazMode

I am really curious to see if there is an update on the prizes pool (if there is one) this year.

I am like a kid 4 days before Christmas ☃️

If i didn’t go into custom keyboard (mr.suit and mammoth75/mammoth20 and lot of keycaps), i could have offered an z690 mobo plus ddr5. I had to buy one of newegg bundles inorder to get gskill kit i wanted.

Still got to sell off some other group buy keyboards too.

Still scambling trying to get a build log going, but hopefully i'll have something before the deadline!

You are scrambling, tpbmods and I won't make the deadline, danny is too late, prize pool hasn't been updated...



Extension anyone?

Kinda late to be messing with judges schedules and not really fair to others who HAVE finished on time, but in the event they have issues too...
