One vote per CT member, and we "call a winner" under the following pre-determined lopsided conditions:

· 70% After 40: If one chip has a 70% majority after a minimum of 40 votes, we "call the winner" (min vote would be 28 to 12 votes)

· 60% After 50: If one chip has a 60% majority after a minimum of 50 votes, we "call the winner" (min vote would be 30 to 20 votes)

Let the voting begin!

The top one is basically standard Paulson colors, no?

My intention was not to copy any chips. If there are any issues with the originality of my design, please remove it from the contest.

I'm sorry if I unintentionally violated any copyright issues.

You're fine, and this is a perfectly valid submission. As these submissions get down to the final few, we check the colors with our manufacturer to see if there are any conflicts. I noticed these chip colors are similar to Paulson's home market $500 chip with a different edge spot configuration, but that's really irrelevant. It's getting too close to a casino chip that we've got to be concerned with. We haven't had one yet, but it's no big deal if we do. If so, we just go onto the next favorite chip.

Dai,

I wasn't saying or even implying that you'd copied anything or that your submission was any less valid than anyone elses. I was only pointing out that the color scheme is very similar to an existing, popular chip - that may make some people favor it and it may make some people shy away from it.

I apologize if it came across in any other way.
