I would like something like this:


The first row could make a nice cash-set with e.g.: 5c;25c;$1 and $5.
Middle row as a standard tournament set 25;100;500 and 1000.
Last row can be a fancy cash-set with 25c;$10;$2.5 and $1 , another standard Tournament set from 25 to 1000 or they can be used for some high or low denoms in cash or tournament games.
As you see, i am also a fan of the quarterpie chips. I think that is a nice chance to have the opportunity to get a colorful tournament and a colorful cash-set, wich dont tend to mix up.

• Having a Charcoal, in addition to Black.

• Having an Almond, in addition to White.
• Having a Sherbet Green, in addition to Dark Green.
• Having both a Pink and an Orange (instead of just one).
• Having a brown (Chocolate, Gold, Mustard) at all.

Based on polls and feedback to date:
- Charcoal and Black are a pretty even vote. Charcoal could double as a Grey also.
- Lavender and Laker Purple are also pretty even
- White with double blue is well ahead of Almond/White with Plum + Coral
- There's a lot of interest in Sherbert Green
- There's a lot of interest in Pink...would anyone actually buy Orange or is it just that we're assuming the line needs an Orange Chip?
- The mixed Brown quarter-pie is hawt.

If I were to split things up based on feedback to date, I'd summarise:
Must have:
Red
Green
Yellow
Blue

Due to the strong divide (everyone says 1 will do but people have strong opinions on which 1) maybe we should do both of:
Black + Charcoal
Lavender + Laker

After that, most wanted seem to be:
White (have I mentioned double-Blue spots yet this paragraph?)
Pink
Chocolate
Sherbert Green

And maybe Orange, Almond and Gold might drop away. If we really need an Orange, the Laker crew (which I'm a member of) seems willing to consider this Lavender chip sufficiently purple:



So maybe we could make do with:

Red
Green
Yellow
Blue

Black
Charcoal
Lavender
White
Pink
Chocolate
Sherbert Green
and maybe Orange

Truthiness.

The one double duty chip I've noted is that Hot Pink/Blood Red Pie which could do duty as either Pink or Red. It's probably not something I particularly desire so I really don't have a dog in that race just throwing it out there.

The only other thing is the White v. Blue debate probably demands there be one of each. Again I probably wouldn't do either (though who knows) but for future generations looking for the must have $1 cheque it seems a requirement.

It does limit its use as a fractional, though, as a regular cash set might well go:
pink quarter, white or blue $1, red $5.

I guess I wonder what colours are non-negotiable - will MSP require a true black and Laker purple or will charcoal and lavender be sufficient? Though feedback here suggests that Black+Charcoal will both be in demand (by seperate sets of individuals) and Lavender+Laker are likely to be also.

Oh, and one of the two sweatshirts I have in the US with me says "Got Truthiness?" Go Colbert Nation!

Is this fun or what?

Quoted (again) for truthiness, indeed!

Me thinks we don't need a poll. ... Daffyd for President!

Does anybody need an orange?

Does anybody need a Laker Purple (if there is a lavender)?

If so, speak up!
If not...

Red
Green
Yellow
Blue
Black
Charcoal
Lavender
White
Pink
Chocolate
Sherbert Green

works for me as a "mandatory" 11 chips, and you can throw in 12th chip from:
Almond; Laker Purple; Orange; ??? (was there anything else worth considering?)

BTW, who voted for Sky Blue, anyway?? I don't think I've seen a single mock-up with it!

And since I don't like posting without a mock-up, here's something based on that:




Looking for suggestions, especially relating to the black, yellow, (dark)green, red.
*EDIT* Might have to hit refresh for the latest version, as I've changed this one about 4 times so far.

[smitty007]

I agree with the 11 mandatory chips listed j...

As long as there is a Lavender & Charcoal chip available, I am good to go...I do think it would be nice to have a blue & white chip, but it's not crucial in my opinion...I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE AN ARC YELLOW CHIP...IT IS JUST SUCH A GOOD LOOKING COLOR!


I still like the Dark Green chip from my set the best out of what I have seen...actually, there was one other I liked...Dark Green w/ Sherbert Green & Verde.

For a yellow chip, I say either Dark blue, Brown, or Black edge spots...I think I am leaning toward black edge spots now...Oh, and I'm really liking the W. Orange & White edge spots on the Charcoal chip...here is my set attached again (sorry about using the old charcoal color).



Great work on this j!

JDufords post is spot on with the following cavaets:

The color scheme for Black is too "Samurai". I know it's not that chip exactly but it feels like it should be part of that set. Nothing wrong with that mind, it's just it's been done (more or less).

I really like Smitty's Black 6A18 Almond/Orange though again I'd do it as 614 (the most 8V like pattern).

FWIW I really like Sky Blue but can't feature it in a set that also has SG.

What can I say, I'm all about the people Some mighty fine looking chips here...

I'd definitely like to see the (dark) green have 2 spot colours if the sherbert green has only one. And I'm wondering if the yellow-blue that got some votes might be liked - it would work as a Cali $20 as well as a T1000. Plus there's my latest black. The obligatory mock-up:

EDIT: The black is very Samurai $100. Oops, I guess great minds think alike sometimes.

I've never been too big on having chips in a set that either looked the same and/or were very similar...arc yellow/w.day orange, white/almond etc. After looking at jd's post below, I started having 2nd thoughts on some of the options.

http://www.chiptalk.net/forum/holdem...tml#post705071

I think having orange in the set would be good, but then again having arc yellow for a .25c chip, IMO would be awesome. I could definately compromise on the white/almond issue as I think coral & plum would great there also (personal prefference!) I'm a huge fan of the chips in jd's post but they really are so close together after seeing the snapshots. It's just me but I still think that having a charcoal & lavendar chip in the set is a must have! Could I live with black in there to...sure, but I agree that if they both make it then both chips (lk. purple & lavendar also), need to have their own unique spot /color pattern.

It's getting exciting to see that just when it appears that something is almost lined out... things get tossed up in the air again! You're doing a great job jd

[daffyd]

Here's some high-polling black colour variants with varying degrees of Samurai-ness:



There seems to be some love for the Black with Day Green and Purple but what happened to the original top-scoring charcoal (black+blue or black+grey spots)? Who was interested in it and what did they have in mind?

Regards,

David.
