Whats the typical time for the ChipGuide to review and accept new submissions? (1 Viewer)

[Dr_Dan11]

I have submitted many new entries to the ChipGuide, but the status shows "Open" for the longest time. Only once I had a submission accepted, and that was within a few days. How long does this typically take? weeks? months?

They're very slow and there's mixed feelings here about them. Their website is from 1997, so I would expect the submission to be accepted in the next 3 years.

Nearly 20 years ago I submitted scans of chips, formatted exactly as requested, that aren't in the Guide that also might be the only extant examples of some chips that never were ingested into the Guide.

If they don't use "plug and place" scans, well, take from that what you will.











(TLDR, if my time and effort isn't worth your time...).

First they have to steal your soul before they post your pics. The good news is that they use a 56.6kbps model to do it, so it takes around 19 years.

Also, when you send them a chip pic, they own the intellectual property rights (in their own minds) to the pictures, the chip, the camera, and any colors that might be present in the pic.

I know we somewhat have a database but PCF needs a database similar chipguide w a state map etc

You’re asking in the wrong place. Contact the chipguide directly or via
the CCA / CCGTCC to get an answer from the horses mouth. As you can see there’s not a lot of support here.

Clickable html image maps is an outdated method and not mobile friendly. We use filters instead.

Chip DB
Casino chips

Nevada ? This doesn’t make sense to me. I’m sure I’m not following the right click path, but this is how I would.

Also I would start w state not manufacture.

What does the Nevada filter option not make sense?

Once you click Nevada the next subtitles are colors and we don’t have any Vegas/Nevada casino chips on the entire database?

There is only one Nevada casino in the DB.

Last feedback…and again feel free to ignore

Click Path

Chips DB
Search Casino Chips
Landing page headline says “Casino sets” (not what I clicked).
Then sorts them by color. I would argue this page could be something different. Maybe states to pick rather than colors.

There is only one Nevada casino in the DB.

Point being...?
I'm pretty sure the owners of the photos wouldn't mind.

No point. More of a reference to the hilarious shenanigans that went on a little while ago.

They loved when I "stole" their pictures to use in my videos

I've had my fair share of shenanigans with them.

Depending on the state or type of chip, it can take days, weeks or months. The Chip Guide volunteers are usually assigned by geography. I always find that the Nevada chips take the longest as they usually have the most submissions.

Email the admin directly. I’ve had responses within 24 hours.

Can one become a volunteer somehow?

Hi. Send an email to [email protected]. That should go directly to Charles Kaplan. Let him know which chips you submitted and he can see which admins (there are many) were assigned to your submissions. We definitely appreciate everyone's contributions, so thank you for sending them in.

Reach out to Charles Kaplan. [email protected]

You, Sir, are obviously psychic. Would you mind reading my palm/future, please? I'd shove money at you like a corporate lawyer.

Also, if we could discuss my horoscope...
