That kind of hurts a little bit
LOL!!!! At least you get to play with them!
Those three mentioned have been after those samples for quite some time and their love for the set and persistency just deserved a shout out.

You sir, are dead to me.For whatever's worth (nothing, really), if I were ever to give away samples of Bubbs, they would go to 3 people first: @Jeff , @Chippy McChiperson and @k9dr .
Great minds think alike!

Awesome! Very proud. Thank you to all the supporters. It means a lot to me to get recognized among these great sets up for nomination.
I also want to thank my neighborhood for without it I wouldn’t have the inspiration behind this set.

It is such a pleasure to see what imagination and skill can produce. I started my custom set, but second guess ed myself too many times. Congrats to all

What are the conditions must be fulfilled to be potentially inducted in HOF?

Royal Flush
- Custom set
- The first chips had to be out (publicly posted) at least one year (add-ons may be newer).

Really? Only two of those? Minimum chip quantity?

Royal Flush
No minimum, but it can come up as a topic of discussion by the committee. The Boulevard chips had only 300 chips in the entirety of the set. This upset a few people who thought the pictures of the set were just stylized photos, and not actual pictures of every chip.
Therefore, this year breakdowns were published for sets when the breakdown was known. Unfortunately that information isn't always easy to come by, as old chippers die or just fade out of the hobby, just leaving behind photos - many of which were lost over time.
There are a few other ins and outs that prevent any set from being nominated year after year, and each committee member has their own personal likes/dislikes which rotate out as committee members rotate in/out.

And what are the aspects needed, like having high-tier edgespots, shaped inlays/faux shaped inlays, totally original design, cash or tournament, and others?No minimum, but it can come up as a topic of discussion by the committee.

Having an original design certainly helps, but there is no specific criteria. Just create a custom set that enough people love and you will be on your way.

The toughest part is the committee does a ton of work, then discusses aspects that the common chipper may not realize. But the voters can just scroll through the pictures, ignoring the significance of the chip. One example, Club Antarctica. One of the first custom sets ever, but unlikely to ever go to a vote because spots and colors were very limited back then.

Guys,
I want to personally apologize as real life had sidetracked me for some time and I am extremely late on this. The hall of fame writeups for Knollwoods, Paymaster, and Pillage and Plunder have all been added to the resource section. I still owe one on Capital Room and aim to complete it this week.
Once again thanks to @bivey @72o @k9dr @Poker Zombie and @slisk250 for their work in putting this together.
