2005 BYOAC Tokens: General dicsussion.
Santoro:
The pricing would be the same as the MAME tokens in my sig, assuming we have enough demand to order 10,000 and have me break even. If we instead need to order 5000 to make this happen, the price would go up because the cost goes up.
AmericanDemon:
I'd be in for an honest 600 Nickel Tokens just to HAVE. I have been kicking myself ever since I missed the first BYOAC run. Trust me I dont flex very well to kick myself, but I've been doing it. ;)

- A new 2005 BYOAC token?
- A re-run of the 2004 BYOAC token? (See http://www.arcadetokens.com/html/byoac_tokens.html)
- A re-run of the 2004 BYOAC token with the date changed to 2005?
- A re-run of the MAME token? (See http://www.arcadetokens.com/html/mame_tokens.html)
If I recall correctly, the minimum run for brass is 5000 tokens and the minimum run for nickel is 10,000 tokens. So if 25 people want 200 new tokens and 25 want 200 MAME tokens, Santoro could order both.
Is anyone willing to pre-commit to any of the above?

I vote for a new 2005 one. I doubt many people would buy the same token with a different date. As far as MAME tokens, the Nickel are still available, and there is a little pent-up demand for more brass, but I don't think it is very big judging from my emails and the threads here.
But, I could be wrong, folks should speak up if they think I am.

These are good ideas. If I recall, you can only have a limited number of poll options, not sure how to work around that. But I do want to make sure all designs can be voted on. hmm :-\
I love the idea of a special thread where only new designs show up. I would probably just maintain it myself, manually linking to the attachements in the design thread. I don't especially want to deal with e-mail. This way people could chose which thread to monitor - the really busy design discussion one, or the 'executive summary' pictures-only thread. Nice idea Drew.
