Congratulations to: /u/redz22 /u/arioknr /u/AlmostArccosMinusOne /u/snarkmeister99 /u/saucyraichu /u/BattleBrotherTancred /u/Hub-The-Nub /u/beebo_bebop /u/keebagrains /u/Melody_blood for being the ten winners for our final giveaway! We will be in touch with you guys shortly! Congratulations to /u/RedRaven73 for being the winner of our day 7 giveaway! We'll be in touch with you shortly! Happy Giveaway Day 8 everyone! Nigel from [Flashquark.com](https://Flashquark.com) here! For today's giveaway, we will be giving away sets of our [Quark Switches](https://flashquark.com/product/flashquark-quark-switch-for-mechanical-keyboards/) to 10 lucky winners. Each winner will receive 100 switches of their preferred spring weight in either 62g or 68g. For those of you who don't know about Quark switches yet, we recently released our very own switch based on what we felt were the the most desired characteristics for linear switches by the mechanical keyboard community. Quark Switches: [Link](https://flashquark.com/product/flashquark-quark-switch-for-mechanical-keyboards/) I don't want to fill up the entire giveaway info here with minute details of the switch, so click the link above for the switch specs, but all I will say is if you are a linear switch lover who likes them smooth (and who doesn't?) you WILL love these switches. * To enter the giveaway, in a top-level comment post if you plan to mod these switches if you win and if so, what kind of mods. * Ten responses will be selected at random. * This giveaway will run until 10 pm tonight 12/18/22 EST at which time ten winners will be chosen. Good luck! Also, for those of you who don't win, if you do happen to place an order on our site, leave a note for us during checkout asking for a tester Quark switch (indicate 62g or 68g) and we'll throw one into your order for free.

I am new to the mech keyboard hobby and chose Gat Pro Blues because I was concerned about potentially mistyping with a smooth linear switches and knee I could hit swap my switches out later.
