| | | Matsui Group Buy- Custom Mold- Final Mold Design(Seriously)
Alright, another poll, with two new options. There were many requests for a Palms&Turtles design with vertical palms, so FJohnson delievered, and they are now going to be included in the vote. The first design on the large image and the third design on the large image are the two that will be chosen from, as well as both of the single designs. Their names should be pretty self-explanitory.   
And again, I can't stress how important it is that only those who will buy chips vote in this poll! |

| | | lots of great work here, but I have to say that the turtles/straight palms would look alot better with the group of 3 palm trees vs the single palm.
Even so, I thought I would like that design more than I do. Looks a bit strange with the straight palms at North South East and West. My vote will probably go to the turtles/curved palms. That was a good idea. |

That was a good idea. | Shouldn't put the NESW idea into your decision, as inlays aren't oriented to the edgespots, so in reality, only a few chips would have that NESW effect. |

| | | I understand that the labels will go on randomly, but the 4 straight palms pointing out polarizes the chip. I'm not sure that is a good thing. The 4 curved palms have a better flow in that respect. IMHO YMMV |

| | | Haven't voted yet, and not sure I will. It is neck and neck right now, but looking at past history I have a feeling the mold is going to be too tricked -up and take away from the elegant simplicity that these chips had just a month ago. So many of the new options are too predominant: rather than add to the chip they fight with the inlay for attention as the #1 design element. |

| | | I just dont see how having a beautifully done mold will be a detractor from the chip.
I see it only adding to the 'tropical' theme that is balanced out by the simple yet asthetically pleasing inlay.
Patience is also needed at this point, I understand the need to get this GB off the ground, but everyone should have thier say and the need to come to some sort of agreement on the mold issue is paramount.

But just to kibitz from the sidelines, I have to say I agree with Dwight (and Wooderson).
