Sorry don't know what happened to your wallet man.

I agree with your assesement though that is completely user error. The funny thing is as much as I go on and on about using non trad colors the 100 ended up black and the 500 was basically purple. I think the base colors are too close together for those two, though that's my fault. In normal light (that is decent light conditions) I think it's very easy to tell the two apart. In the dark dank world of the Pines, where light is as scarce as a helpful river card, they do tend to be too close. I'm going to throw some more light down there for the next game, though I have toyed with the idea of re-doing the 100 with the mustard being full 100% yellow or reversing the colors on the 500 so it's that light pinkish/salmon color for the base and purple for the spots. For the immediate future though it's more light. I realize I like it pretty dark, but I think I've taken it to extremes at Pines HQ. Now as far as 4 beers, when I play that doesn't even count as drinking. As my sainted mother said "never eat on an empty stomach".

Jim, Thanks for the extra mile on the chips. You'll be getting some repeat custom from me. The more I monkey around with the chip the more I like the new formulation, though as I said above the previous material had some strengths too. I guess you can't go wrong either way.

Now about that suits mold....................

Big Kyle, I really like the 25 too. It's very 1960s NORAD style. Duck and cover! Duck and cover!
