Need: Recommendation for a USB gamepad to sacrifice.

The very first wire that's gray or purple is the ground. Check the wiring schematic. Use the ground harness by plugging the female end into the male ground on the rainbow harness.
Then plug your grounds into the outer most microswitch connection on all of your switches, then your appropriate colored wire to the NO which is the blade closest to the ground.

Better yet, here's a link to the AWESOME video from DeLuSioNal29 showing you all you need to know to get started. I highly recommend you watch it.

I've found Purple.

Okay, I see now.

I hadn't unbundled the ground harness until now.  And now I see that ground is all chained together.

And thank you for the video.  I now know how to wire up the micro-switches on everything.

I'm just some plywood, nails, drilling, and clear-coating away from gaming with this.  =)

You guys are awesome.

Glad I could help. (I kinda took over the helper duties on this thread)
