What is this? I like that $1 relabeled as a frac!

Also, why do none of the chips colors match/play/align with a single color on the other 3 chips?

If the watermelons are the star, I’d adjust at least 2 of the other 3 to make them more coherent instead of 4 random chips together.

Why so womp womp? Y’all strange.

I dig the agaves. Really like em, the stamp is fantastic, I’d be a happy buyer at their prices. 43 one seems cool too.

“I’d hate it as usual” cause I didn’t like faro dunes? It wasn’t an attack, everyone has diff tastes a they just weren’t my cup of tea.

If you’re judging pcfers based on their opinion of faro dunes, I have bad news for ya :oops:

(All chips are good chips, and more chips to market is alway a good thing!)

I thought you liked this little banter back and forth. Too much? No attack perceived or given.

Will let chips speak for themselves once seen in person, with stamps, and in stacks.. I have my opinions as well. :)

That said, curious though on the comment of chips needing to match/play/align colors. Generally across all my past sets I've done my best to separate colors. Sometimes will re-use, but depends on the set and vibe I'm going for.

For more Casino vibes (e.g. Jolly, CRs) I tried to separate spot colors as much as possible, but for more custom sets, for sure brought in more common colors. But hey, my approach/tastes for both routes can differ too from folks.

Overall though, the main cohesion point is really feeling of spot progression, inlay/stamp, and vibe on the table across denoms. Excited for full reveal out there/pics. For sure though, never will please all! I for one don't try to with my sets, just myself. LOL

Edit: Also should have worded better, color/warmness/shade etc all for sure matter a shit ton. My point was on color reuse.

If stamps, will be fine. The great equalizer, hard to have a bad looking stamped chip.

I know nothing design wise - maybe less than nothing. I wanted to build a diddy party all white set. Another time wanted a diff mold every denom.

That being said, it would be super wierd for me that spot progression, inlay/stamp, and vibe would all be key to cohesion, but not the colors of the chips.

Again, I don’t have a lick of design understanding, but there are chips that “go together” and those that “don’t”. Whether that’s dealing with color theory or utilizing contrasts and hues with intent, I think color matters.

In my breakdown of JD vs IG, it’s one of the key differences for me. JD has great solo chips, but the sets a mess.

I think it’d be a great discussion to have and see other artists/designers converse with you and each other on the topic, look at previous nagbs, share insights, see what’s concesus opinions and what’s not. But…people won’t be honest because it’s seen as negative or mean. There’s what’s said behind closed doors and then what’s posted.

I’m sure the set will be gorgeous. They’ll sell!

But no, personally I don’t see the intent to build a cohesive set, which personally just for me, is always the one sad face for nagbs.

Edit - to point out idk if there’s ever been chips released I dislike, btps are one of my favs and pretty disliked by top end design folk, and if all nagbs are built specifically for cohesion, the forum misses out on a ton of relabel/restamp options through the years. Literally impossible to please both sides.

“The market is saturated, the market is saturated, the market is saturated…”

I shouldn’t buy these since I won’t be able to flip them. You know, because of the saturation.

My new years resolution was not to buy poker chips until I get “nice” poker chairs. It’s been 2 days since I bought a poker chip. Don’t test my resolve any further Jimmy & Cratty!

Also, teaser of the frac pls, or I’ll set the ferocious @liftapint on you.

You might actually have to be a judge. Wouldn't be fair to make everyone play for second place before it even starts.

I don’t think he’s attending WaB.

I have the wrong cut cards, my air freshener strength is too strong, the freezer temperature is too weak, and he said he doesn’t like how the 14th step on the staircase squeaks.

Currently shopping for pimp canes and hypoallergenic black paint.

I’m sure nothing will go wrong with a PCF meetup attendee list dressing up as Chappelle show pimps.
 
SWEET JESUS!

Is this it?

The one thread that's to serve as the barometer regarding the crucial health of the hobby overall?

A place where a player could go to get a technical, up-to-date forecast for the chip market?

....And yet ....as far as the eye can see....an infinite table of baiting, thumb-sucking, begging, wretched simping, ego tugging, bed-wetting, petty gif-tards, and trolling.

Ladies and gentlemen, I have but two questions:

Have you ~no~ shame !?

And...seat open?
