RE; one of my earlier responses to another set, this whole set reminds me of my in-law's house. LAY OFF THE BLUE

We all know how I feel about tri-moons by now and "yellow" $5s.

These inlays look like my 9 year old designed them. (If you wanted some TRK hot stamps just go buy some TRK hot stamps., or at least get blanks and have someone to stamp these chips)

Round inlay .25 and $1. Shaped inlay $5 and $25. Round inlay $100?

I imagine when they were molding the $25 at CPC, there was some comment around "This guy is really paying us $4 per to insert a bunch of light blue on a medium blue base?" They must laugh at all of us, but this chip likely more than most.

Unfortunately this set is pretty aligned with my own tastes. So my comments below lack the usual fire..

No matter how used your $100s get you could still call them "minty" (a stupid PCF term) because they look like an Andes mint.

Bad news - the Maryland colony was founded in 1632, and Maryland did not have a state constitution until 1776. It must be quite embarrassing to have a historical inaccuracy plastered on ~1000 clay disks in your home. This is why they have proofs.

Yellow $20s are just as bad as yellow 5s. If you're going to make an L10 or whatever chip, at least make it look nice.

Uhhh ... it's correct

I will only add ....
NCV stands for "No Cash Value". Why would you have an "NCV" chip in a cash set?

but... it's not my thread ....

I would’ve shown catpants a lot more respect before I met him in Dallas. My initial impression was that he made pants out of dead cats and wore them frequently to his usual places like Waffle House and the Dollar Store. That was concerning in a Buffalo Bob Lotion Bucket kind of way.

It was relieving to discover that he’s just a balding overweight guy like the rest of us.

Send it, Mr Commando Style Feline Trouser.

I generally like these too, so it's a challenge.

If we replaced the dog head with your face on one of these chips, someone would have to break out a jeweler's glass to truly tell the difference.

The bearclaw white chip looks like a printer slowly running out of ink.

I mean I went after him personally vs his chips? You're just jealous - you have the second best (aka worst) dog themed chip set on here.

Inlays too or I don't have enough ammo. That $1 looks like someone holding a steering wheel.

This set is the GOAT! Any attempt to criticize it will only be interpreted as a FEEBLE attempt at comedy...

White spots don't save you any money with CPC.

Looks like the "spot progression is bullshit" crowd has elected a new president.

The inlay looks like those ships from Galaga are about to attack rest of the chip.

The $20 looks like a bowl of lucky charms that a picky toddler already went through.

When is the roast happening? All you've said are nice things - I'm very happy to be president of the "spot progression is bullshit" crowd! And I'm impressed you got the meaning of the 20 so closely - it was meant to be reminiscent of a bowl of M&Ms that a picky teenager went through.

You'll never earn my approval, no matter how hard you try.

Also, one exclamation point gets the job done, you don't need to overkill this just like you overkill your chip designs.

I’ll take this one in late relief. FelineTrousers gave us 4 strong innings but he’s clearly struggling.

Dear Rick,

Your frac chip looks like it was designed by a Boy Scout troop committee. You get the merit badge for causing aesthetic pain.

The $1 chip is nice - if this were 1956 and Jim Burt was designing this set.

Your $5 looks like you couldn’t decide what shades of red to use so you got drunk, closed your eyes, and randomly clicked around the chip designer tool. I can’t wait to play in your home game so I can make announcements like “I bet 4 blood clots” or “let’s raise it up and make it 12 dark stools”.

The $25 chip looks like an homage to the Brazilian flag, if Pablo Picasso painted it after dropping enough acid to kill the population of a small village.

I actually like the hundo. I need to clarify that a bit though - I like the hundo base and the edgespot pattern. What I don’t like is that you took what could’ve been a fairly decent chip and decided to dress it up for Halloween. Or maybe it’s just an homage to the Orioles, which is sort of like making an homage to one’s gnarled up continually broken unwashed big toe. I guess this is too long. Suffice to say, I love your Halloween dressed toejam hundo.

The inlay is fine if you believe in mythical aquatic monsters that inhabit commonly traveled waters. Feels more like your community needed tourism dollars and said “well, the Loch Ness monster brings tourists all the way into Rubbishshire, Scotland, so let’s just copy that”. Also, your denominations look like they were drawn by someone with a neurological disorder after shuffling your bloody stool clot chips for too long.

Final grade: 3.5/10. 3 points because the chips are on a great mold and 1/2 point because you ostensibly spelled everything correctly. Then again, knowing how pedantically insistent @Chippy McChiperson is, I suppose a misspelling on 3000 chips would’ve been akin to leaving the family and joining a monastery in Greece.

Who’s next?

Disclaimer: I actually love Rick’s set and can’t wait to play with them.

It is an Orioles tribute fyi. At least he's not a bandwagon Yankees/Red Sox/Cowboys/Patriots/Celtics/Lakers fan with a little bit of Hartford Whalers thrown on the side because they're a cute little team that can't rack up any more losses

This set is the GOAT! Any attempt to criticize it will only be interpreted as a FEEBLE attempt at comedy...

Your set literally puts me to sleep. Partially because of the moon motif, and partially because looking at it is actually physically exhausting.

Couple quick points:

- oh, another tournament set. NERD

- the only person that can appreciate a neon moon is Carl Sagan after he snorts coke. You didn’t really think the “billions and billions of stars” rant was the product of an unadulterated mind, did you?

- that mold reminds me of the maze on the placemat at Waffle House. It’s fun when you’re completely shattered after a day of drinking, until the 6 year old next to you completes the maze in half the time and you have to go full John Wick and stab his family with a pencil. I know, I know. Too long. In summary, your mold makes want to drive a number 2 pencil through my skull.

- I like how part of your design was to play “hide one of the edgespots”. Have you ever visited a Sherwin-Williams and just walked around? Colors. Get to know them.

Final score: 6/10. I’m only giving you 6 points because I’ve only met you once and you’re from Texas, so there is a 33.6% you might shoot me if I gave you the 1.5 you actually deserved. The 1.5 is only because you didn’t put a T2000 or T10000 chip in the set, which really is cause for excommunicado from the chipping community for all of eternity.

We’ll get to your “I drank too much food coloring and vomited” set shortly, Chippy.

Someone doesn’t understand the assignment. I’m calling your parents to pick you up.

Surprised no one has anything to say about this set commemorating the ‘Alien Surrender at Area 51’

 

[bergs]

How does this work? Am I supposed to post them all, or just pick one? I don't know what to do.

Bring on the smoke!

Quick thoughts since you posted like 9 mock-ups and clearly need attention.

El Nido: your inlay reflects current societal issues facing us as inhabitants of Mother Earth. Namely, that cute little island in the inlay will cease to exist in 3 years if the ice in the Arctic continues to melt.

Also, suns are often yellow or red, sometimes a shade of orange. I’ve never seen a blue or purple sun, you weirdo. Where are you from? Fucking Alderran?

Your 5000 chip design is busier than a Manhattan intersection. Did Spragg ask “what inlay do you want?” and you just replied “mmmhmmm yes all of them, that’d be fine”?

The Lucky Buddha inlay looks like an 8 year old on Adderall drew the offspring of Jabba the Hutt and Barney. There is nothing lucky about this Buddha. He’s doomed to eternal life looking like the anatomical impossibility sprung from the drug induced mind of a juvenile.

Final scores: average of 3.25. I gave you 2 points for the chips being round and 1 point for your color selections, which are fine. The other .25 points are just to throw off the scoring auditors so they think I gave this more thought than I really did.

but... it's not my thread ....

I loved the chip, thought I would have some sort of a marker chip for various needs, I only ordered a barrel of them, I wanted to evaluate swapping it out for the 25, or if wanted to swap out a 25 for a 20. its more of a sample for me

also your flame is lame, you can do better!

Ahhh, our first “tootsie roll in the public pool” set. Brown, dark yellow, flat orange, and green.

It’s like you ate too much asparagus and you couldn’t digest it all, and then you went to take a shit and these chips spilled out.

Score: I’m too bored with the drab base colors to even muster a score for you. Let’s just give you “meh”/10 and move on before I literally pass out. These chips could be used to cure insomnia.
