In summary, 36 people have declared their intent to submit an inlay design, and I know of one more who has mentioned via PM that he may be submitting, so we've got 37. Should be exciting.

We're getting close to the initiation of the main event, the inlay design portion of the Protege contest. If you are planning on submitting a inlay design, please either PM me or post in this thread indicating your intent.
NOTE: DO NOT post your inlay design (not yet), rather just state that you will likely be submitting (i.e. "I plan to submit a design."). Just trying to see where we stand on number of submissions. If you know of a talented designer who you think would make a good contestant, please invite them to participate or just let me know their CT call name and I'll personally invite them to submit.
Remember, the the winning inlay designer gets
750 of the winning chips plus a mahogany case, KEM cards, chip racks, and dealer buttons,
or $750 in cash!
We're progressing nicely thru the colors. Thanks to everyone who has contributed/submitted/voted. With 5 chip colors left to determine, we're looking at around the end of June to have the default color set completed. We are tentatively setting an inlay submission date of
July 1st. I will provide more details on how and when to submit at a later time.
General process planned:
- We'll collect all submissions. All submissions must use the default color set (Designers will have the opportunity to tweak the chip colors and/or edge spots later on if they desire)
- We'll probably post each submission in it's own thread, and open it up to commentary from the gallery. Designers can listen to what they want and ignore what they want. They may modify their design any time during this week, or keep it just as submitted. Totally up to each designer.
- Around July 7th, Tenpercenter will re-assume the reigns of the contest administration. The inlay design voting phase will likely commence shortly thereafter.
So who's in?
