2019 HOF Stump thread (1 Viewer)

[bivey]

Please use this thread to stump for custom chips that you would like to see up for consideration in the 2019 HOF.

Pics are highly encouraged. Details on WHY you think a certain set is worthy is key.

Go for it!

Can you or someone that knows post the criteria for eligibility?

 

[bivey]

Keep in mind there is a one year ineligibility period for a set. This means the initial pr0n must have been posted before 12/01/2017 in order for it to be eligible this year. Anything after can not be submitted.

Here is a list of ineligible sets (may not be comprehensive)
Havana Cardroom
Le Boudoir hotstamp tournament
Club hel
Dragon’s Poker Room
The Beverley Gartland
Sierra’s
St. James Club
Dead Money Poker
Steel City
Old Orchard

One other thing to consider is the limit on the number of times a set can be nominated without being voted in. No set may be nominated more than three consecutive years without being voted through. After the third year that set must have a year of ineligibility. After that the set may be nominated twice more. Any set which is not voted through after five times is no longer HOF eligible. For reference sets which have been previously nominated include:

Sets nominated three times:
Steel City, ineligible 2018
Old Orchard, ineligible 2018
Contreras Landa (eligible this year however)

Rosie's Bayou cajun customs from @slisk250. Bright bold colors with a unique flare on the typical cali color lineup, awesome complimentary edge spots, creative graphics on the inlay, and a theme with a great personal back story and tribute.

Rosie's Bayou

Cos it's all the awesome

Bubb’s Poker Den Tournament set. Personal favorite tournament set. Great color choices for a “monotone” theme. Inlay is subtle and effective. I actually thought this set was in already but don’t see it listed in the HOF section.

Club Courage "H" mold CPC - Tribute Customs

Perhaps the best custom set of all time: proper mold, old school tribute chips, spot progression, custom integration, etc. Even managed to pull off getting a self portrait in the set that would make ol' Benny Binion and grandma Jessie Beck proud. Truly spectacular

Rosie's bayou is as sexy in person as it is at the table. Well done @slisk250

@Perthmike custom cpc set that was designed in celebration of him and his wife's honeymoon vacation.

The theme, the colors, and the edge spot progression are fantastic.

Sadly I don’t think these are eligible this year. Pics were posted in 2018.

I can't +1 this enough! The chip colors matching the animal behind the silhouette, it's just fantastic! Wasn't there an addon $5 with Lion colors?

Boooo! Shoot the messenger!!

Well, the committee better stick around for one more year...

I think this is my favorite custom set evah. So gud

 

[crussader]

Is there a comprehensive list somewhere of all the sets that are already in the hall of fame?

 

[LinkyBabe]

Resources section

 

[crussader]

I didn't find a list in the resources section, just individual threads for twenty chip sets mixed in with all the other threads. I presume these are all hall of fame sets? Is twenty the total count to date?

 

[crussader]

...This means the initial pr0n must have been posted before 12/01/2017 in order for it to be eligible this year...

Does it matter where on the forum the pron was posted?

Yes they are... I guess you didn't notice the "Categories" filter near the top?

Nope. Sure didn't, but I see it now. Thanks!

Is Scott's Cavalry Club cash set eligible? If so I'm stumping for it. Fantastic classic set with meticulous pron... I imagine that if we could turn the hands of time back to 1957, I could wander in to a casino and play this set. The spots, colors, and inlay reek of a time lost forever. He also stepped it up a notch with some stellar special bling commemoratives for fun.

 

[Perthmike]

I'm a little bit unsure if these technically count, since the standard set was made as a stock set, but I understand the inlay was commissioned by Michael Patton (rip) and this cash set specifically was a custom design for his personal use.

Either way, it's one of my favourite all time sets. The inlay is a timeless classic and it's a fantastic use of quarter pies, and gets bonus points in my book for being Cali colours. The 5 in particular is outstanding.

Set is currently owned by @ChaosRock (pics also borrowed from your pron thread Paulo)

 

[slisk250]

Contreras Landa deserves another shot. It is a wonderfully designed set.

 

[slisk250]

Music Shack

 

[slisk250]

@AK Chip and his Aurora Club cash set...plus the table...wow

 

[Poker Zombie]

I'm not digging for the pics, but... Monopoly.

Just saying it, and like 95% of the chippers that have been around for years know exactly what I'm talking about. If a set is that memorable, and not in the HoF, then it's not really about Fame, is it?

 

[slisk250]

Bill's Haus of Bluff.

Love the enthusiasm, but the Cavalry Clb cash set is ineligible this year. Pron was posted in early 2018.

Second this choice. Love that set in every way.

Elligible? Idk if we can nominate our own, but I didn’t make the cutoff for last year’s HOF.
