I'll probably be in the minority, but I think it looks great without GAME NOT OVER. To me, words on the screen would make it seem like there is too much going on on that side of the token. Right now there is just the right amount of design without being overkill.

Besides, things that don't appear on this token could always be used on the 2005 BYOAC.

Just tried it and you are right. It takes the *almost* icon / logo-like feel of the cab away. It's a bit too busy for my taste. If Santoro would like I'll post the result, but it's his show, I don't want to open up any cans o' worms.

Wow guys,

I'm gonna have more tokens then I know what to do with...but who's complaining

XtraSmiley · « **Reply #84 on:** October 13, 2004, 10:47:08 pm »

I know we are not suppose to comment on design, but...

1. I think the it should be 1 player, and centered controls.
2. Maybe the CP should stick out a little bit over the bottom row of words. Not as much as the marquee, but a little, it would be a cool 3D effect.
3. I'd like to see the GNO on the screen, just to see the two options.

Again, if you are not taking ideas, cool, it looks great anyway, just some thoughts. X

SAME PIC ON BOTH SIDES?

I looked at the two different colors and thought it was just an example of the front in Nickel and Brass, but after reading Hoagie's post, I though of something maybe cool.....brass front/nickel back.....although I know it wouldn't be done, I kinda like the idea!

I have to disagree about the 1 player centered controls. If this was for Pac-Man or Q-bert or a game that had a centered joystick that'd be cool, but I think 90%+ of the people with a MAME cab don't have just one joystick.

And looking at the picture again, I think that the bottom of the CP could stick out only to the line and wouldn't even touch the words, so it probably wouldn't have as great an effect as the marquee does. The way it is now it has a nice in-and-out effect.

DPsx7 · « **Reply #87 on:** October 14, 2004, 12:55:58 am »

Nice. I think it could use a few less rings in the center to make it seem just a little less busy though.

I guess there's gonna be 2 new designs then (front/back). It'll probably cost as much as last time, right?

usedelectronics · « **Reply #88 on:** October 14, 2004, 03:41:13 am »

Looks Great!
I've been meaning to convert the "arcade" to tokens, and now is as good a time as any...

I'd be down for at least 100 of each color, probably even 200 of each.

I haven't finalized pricing yet, but there is a good chance that the pricing will be the same at the BYOAC tokens, with the addition of 500 lots at a further discount. Maybe even 1000 lots, though I doubt I would sell many of those.

Shipping within the US will be cheaper though for 200 lots - probably around $4.

Hoagie_one · « **Reply #90 on:** October 14, 2004, 09:39:11 am »

where are the proceeds of these sales going....just curious. Is this a private endevor or for the community?

Santoro · « **Reply #91 on:** October 14, 2004, 10:08:26 am »

This is strictly a private endeavor. If it helps promote Mame and the community, that is certainly a plus, and that is one of the reasons I offered to put the Mame.net URL on the tokens.

Hoagie_one · « **Reply #92 on:** October 14, 2004, 10:17:30 am »

How about something we can all really relate to in this hobby...

a guy screaming and cursing at an arcade game for not working right even though we've fixed everything twice! :-)

rchadd · « **Reply #102 on:** October 19, 2004, 09:51:44 am »

someone desperately trying to get the monitor's vhold to hold

I vaguely recall that the mint had an "all-caps" requirement, but I could be wrong... and if we get pedantic about the address, it should be http://www.mame.net/, but I don't think that'll look good...

Yea, they said that originally, but I think that was really only if we didn't provide Vector art. Let's try lower case and see if they push back. If they do it is easy to reverse.

It's not a "preciosism" ... I just think it looks nicer ... that's all ... belive that even "mame.net" should be enought, but I like it anyway .. I'm far from being critical ...

Sorry .. It's commonly used around this parts (portuguese) ... that's why I used the comma ... didn't know if the word exist in english ...

Anyway ... I think you understand the meanning I wanted to express ...

Well actually it can be used ... thats the use for the "ism" sufix ... but it was mispelled ...
