I think the date is very important.  There needs to be some change in the token from last year.  I really love these things and I'm in (as I have been), but I would be sad to see only the date change.

As for voting there is an alternative to 3 votes.  Why not unlimited?  This would be classified as "approval voting", where people either would or wouldn't buy a particular design if it were the winner.  Rather than a - "do you prefer" vote.  It could be a "would you buy" vote.  I would guess that this method would acctually prodce the most follow through on purchases.

Flinkly:

monkeybomb, i think there might be too much room for eror in that kind of vote.  while most of us aren't idiots, i'm sure there are a few.

i have to jump in and say that i'm interested in 200 of the old byoac tokens in brass, if we can get a limited run done for minimal costs.  and as for this years design, i'm up for changing half of it or all of it, but keeping it the same doesn't make sense.  the prices would be lower, but it wouldn't be as cool.  most of the reason i'm getting them is to have a bunch of assorted tokens made for and by the community.

Timstuff:

If Pac-Man on the coin would present legal challenges, then perhaps an alien from Space Invaders could be a good "heads" image for the coin? IANAL, but I don't think anyone could sue someone for having a pixelated monster on a token.

Not true.  Pixelhugger tried to get a T-shirt with an invader made up and their legal guys jumped all over him.  Remember, a Space Invaders/Qix dual cabinet was just re-released.
