[GGKoul]

I NEED more tokens!

I like that slogan.

5) pixel pleasure from past to present


that's what I got so far... keep them coming

Slogan:  Mmmmmm, Mmmmmm, BEEYOTCH.

Not really arcade related, but funny nonetheless.

Also funny:  I'm Rick James, Beeyotch.

[Quarters]

 - This is a token of my affliction

[gamecreature]

From Starship One:

"Sensors detect another quarter in your pocket."

[missioncontrol]

FYI the slogan will replace the "All your games are belong to us" that was used as a generic template during the creation of the designs....

[Santoro]

OK, this is the discussion thread for slogans. Thanks guys.    Lets see if we can develop a consensus, if not we can vote.

Personally I am fond of Kev's "Build. Restore. Play." slogan, and I'll add a variant: "Build. Play. Repeat"

"Arcade Gaming Your Way"
"Rebuilding the Past"
"Experience the Classic Arcade"

[missioncontrol]

Fountain of Youth

Replaying the Past

Past meets present

[markrvp]

I like:

Build, Restore, Play
The Arcade Will Never Die

[leapinlew]

Real gamers don't need to continue

Arcade Heaven

it's 2006, do you know where your pac-man is?

Golden Era Gaming

Hanging on to the past like you have no more men left and no more quarters

[missioncontrol]

The kid from silver spoons was my hero

[pointdablame]

Hanging on to the past like you have no more men left and no more quarters

I doubt this will fit on a token... 

[Clonedsheep]

   Here are a few from the top of my head.

Satisfy your inner child

A token to yesterday

The first bling bling

2nd childhood anyone?

[ahofle]

"Only the mall arcades are dead."   

[leapinlew]

Hanging on to the past like you have no more men left and no more quarters

I doubt this will fit on a token... 

What if we make big tokens... like the size of a 45 record.

[missioncontrol]

bringing the arcades home

[Havok]

I still like "All your game are belong to us"

or how about "Least amount spent on this cab so far"

[JONTHEBOMB]

Slogans:

Get into the game

Keeping Games Alive Forever

Betcha can't build just one

Yo quiero arcada

A little play time will do ya good

Play all that you can play

High Score Addict

Joysticks, Buttons and Trackballs  Oh my!

An arcade in need deserves a player indeed

An arcade is like eating a steak.  When you realize it's gone you want more.
(I know this one won't fit)

[markrvp]

How about something in Latin to commemorate the Harpal Xbox360 scandal?

For example:

En Anum Harpal Diddum

[Havok]

I like the Latin idea, how about:

In Arcadus Nos Fides - In arcades we trust

[Santoro]

Not much concensus forming yet.   

[leapinlew]

well.... I don't know who said it, but

Golden Era Gaming

Gets my vote! 

[ahofle]

Not much concensus forming yet.

I like it!!! Simple...straightforward...brilliant!! 

[missioncontrol]

How about something in Latin to commemorate the Harpal Xbox360 scandal?

For example:

En Anum Harpal Diddum

I don't want Harpals name on my tokens

[missioncontrol]

Not much concensus forming yet.   

well I suggest we keep throwing ideas around for a couple days, then we start discussing which ideas look the most promising and try to knock it down to a dozen or so then we take a vote on them.......

My personal opinion is that since this token has an 80's feel with the old school invaders tails and the cocktail cabinet on the front we go with something that mentions replaying the games of our youth

[KevSteele]

I agree -- we need to brainstorm for a while, throwing ideas into the ring, then we have a big gladiator match, where the strongest ideas beat the  out of the wimpy ideas, and once we wash off all the blood, we have our champions!

(Or something like that. Anyway, we're still in the brainstorming phase - just throw in your ideas, and make note of the ideas that other people suggest that you like as well!)

[missioncontrol]

Some of these were mentioned that caught my eye:

Take it to the next level
Bringing Arcade Classics to Life  (Bringing Classics Back to Life)
The Classics Never Die
Satisfy Your Inner Child
In Arcadus Nos Fides

-----------------------------------------

A few more ideas:

Yesterday's Games Today
The Legends Play Forever
Reviving, Restoring, Rebuilding
Replaying Our Memories
Key to Pixel Paradise

[GGKoul]

I NEED more tokens!

I like that slogan.

Ditto.

Hey, there's 2 votes for this!!!

I NEED more tokens reminds me of the days when I was searching my pockets for another quarter before the continue time counted down.

[lharles]

"I got ya' tokens right heah'!"

"You are full of bombs."

"Those really WERE the good ol' days."

"Always moving forward on going back..."

"Back when I couldn't get a date..."

"What I spent my money on in lieu of college..."

"WAY more fun than horseshoes."

"These make the game go."

Sorry...I'm feeling really silly today, (more than usual, if you can believe it).

[Havok]

Chick Magnet!

[Sizzler]

Chicken! Fight like a robot

[Sizzler]

FYI the slogan will replace the "All your games are belong to us" that was used as a generic template during the creation of the designs....

Only if 'all your games are belong to us' is voted down.

"Ya, ya, Deefer, Deefer"

"Like, what're you token, man?"

[Tahnok]

I like the latin idea, but something is not quite right about it. It seems like it's supposed to be a spin off of the US quarter text, but you have things mixed up. "In God We Trust" is not in latin on the quarter, it's "Out Of Many, One", or "E Pluribus Unum". Perhaps something along the lines of "Out Of Many, MAME" or

[Vigo]

"Good for 25 cents off your next game"

"Why does this token Smell like Pea Soup?"

""

"http://www.suedzucker.de/rezeptbox/images/basics/muffin.gif"

"Why does this token taste like pea soup?"

"Why did the plane crash? Because the pilot was a loaf of bread."

"I spend my life on these games, not my quarters"

" "

"My quotes are  "

"Why did i put my token in pea soup?"

"Finally, a token I didn't steal from Chuck E. Cheese"

"...or Circus Pizza, or that crappy mall arcade"

"Where an Adult can be a kid"

"Meow?"

"This quote will never be on a token"

"Hearts, stars, horseshoes, clovers and blue moons. Pots O' Gold and rainbows, and me red balloons. Frosted Lucky Charms, They're Magically Delicious."

"No Cookies in My forest"

"I'm not quizzical, I'M TEST-ical!"

"2006"

"BYOAC"

"This is a token"

"Don't play Shaq-Fu"

"Damp Baking soda makes an excellent token cleaner"

"Ok, so that was my stab at making quotes. Unfortunately most have little to do with  BYOAC"

[patrickmaher]

Some geared for the space invaders side:
Killing space invaders since I was a teen.
Build it, the invasions coming.
Redeemable for three turrets.

Here are some with similar wording, not sure what sounds best(feel free to suggest alternatives if you like):
The only token you'll ever need.
The last token you'll ever need.
Masters/Winners only need one (token).

Others:
Token mightier than the quarter.

[Voodooray]

A token of my undieing love.
A token of my affection.

That's just funny. 

[SirPeale]

FYI the slogan will replace the "All your games are belong to us" that was used as a generic template during the creation of the designs....

Only if 'all your games are belong to us' is voted down.

I'll make sure it is.  If I have to stuff the ballot box with thousands of fake accounts, or pay people off with arcadey goodness, it will never see the light of day.

[SirPeale]

[ARCADE5280]

My favorites so far...

ALL YOUR GAME...
Build. Restore. Play.
The game is never over.
In arcadus nos fides.
Cocktails anyone?

I haven't come up with anything better, but will add my lame thoughts to help spark some ideas.

Just one more game.
Good for one high score.
Warning: This token will explode if removed from this arcade, so put it back right now you filthy thief who has nothing better to do than freeload and then steal my tokens.
Real gamers use tokens.
Bringing pixels to life.


Support "All your game..."

[Havok]

All your game are belong to us!

Peale will be defeated!

[fatfingers]

All your Peale are belong to us!

[Q*Bert_OP]

All your roms are belong to me.

[Crafty]

For What Its Worth I think that there are numerous good suggestions flying around.

My favourite so far

Build. Restore. Play.

[leapinlew]

Build it, the invasions coming.

I like this.

[edwardvci]

Build it they will Play

Play on Dude

All your tokens are belong to us

Time Killer

[Havok]

Thanks for everyone's votes...

"All your game are belong to us" has won by a landslide!

 

[MYX]

not sure who put it up and don't have time to look as I am at work, But I really liked "One Token to play them all"

[fatfingers]

I like (no particular order):

• "In Arcades We Trust" -- the english version of  "in arcadus nos fides"
• Build. Restore. Play.

 
   

[MYX]

Hail yeah!
Dude, can I bum a token
Santoro : Secretary of BYOAC Treasury

If we go for the Latin thing, I really like pixels Latin "I poke badgers with sticks"

[shardian]

I feel that the slogan thread needs to be branched off into groups:
One dealing with credit/token/value
One for nod/wink to us BYOAC'ers
One for Themed slogans dealing with token design

For themes so far, I like:

Build.Play.Repeat
One token to play them all..

And for a spin off on the Latin thing, I suggest

"E Pluribus Arcadium"

I have no idea if it is correct, but it rolls of the tongue nicely.

[quarterback]

I feel that the slogan thread needs to be branched off into groups:

I think it's time to just shut it down and start a vote to weed out some of the slogans.

[Kremmit]

Sometimes the simple things are the best.  The same things that were on real tokens back when.

One Coin, One Play
One Credit

etc.

[Havok]

No bounce, no play.

[Kremmit]

No bounce, no play.

Duddits.

[quarterback]

No bounce, no play.

No harm, no foul

or

No farm, no howl

or

Ho-farm, no towel

or

Toe-arm, so... wierd...



Has the voting started yet? 

[JonnyBoy]

This token was down my pants.

[MYX]

Ho-farm, no towel

Or take a Hitchhikers approach...
Don't Panic and bring yer towel.

[missioncontrol]

To get the ball rolling on the voting process We should make today the last day for new ideas before we start discussing and narrowing it down to the top finalist to vote on....

That will never fit on a token. Come on man...what were you thinkin' 

4 8 15 16 23 42

[Santoro]

Let's do this - I am only going to poll on slogans that have been 'seconded'   So, if you really like a slogan that has been presented, please say so now.

 

[Santoro]

So far that is:

I NEED more tokens!
Build. Restore. Play
The Arcade Will Never Die.
All your game are belong to us
Take it to the next level
Bringing Arcade Classics to Life  (Bringing Classics Back to Life)
The Classics Never Die
Satisfy Your Inner Child
In Arcadus Nos Fides
Cocktails anyone?
Build it, the invasion's coming.
One Token to play them all


So did I miss any?

[Santoro]

Talking to myself again

On the two winning sides we actually have three spots for slogans....  that's too many IMHO.  Let's put "No Cash Value" on the back for authenticity's sake.   That would leave two free text blocks. 

My gut reaction is that even two might be too many slogans.  Does the group agree?  If yes, what other text might we put? 

If I am the only one that feels this way, we'll stick with two, using the first and second place poll winners- if they can physically fit.

[shardian]

Are you still putting on the BYOAC/www.arcadecontrols stuff, or will one of the two slogans replace all or part of that?

[jfunk]

Yeah, I think 2 is even too many..  Maybe just 'One Credit' and 'No Cash Value' on the back..  With slogan on the front...?

And can we UN-second slogans?    'Cause I'd like to un-second the 'All Your Games...' 

[Santoro]

I un-third it.  I never liked that. It's just too 'inside' IMHO. 

[fatfingers]

I unfourth it...

Edit: And I think two slogans is too many as well.

[quarterback]

Okay then, I'd like to un-2nd "Build. Restore. Play" 

[Santoro]

I am going to poll it (All your Base...) even though I don't like it.  This is a community effort here. 

We were mostly kidding about the un- stuff.  No need to un-anything.

[Havok]

I agree 2 slogans is too much. We should go with only 1.

I un-3rd "Build. Restore. Play"

[Santoro]

The BYOAC stuff would stay.  

Are you still putting on the BYOAC/www.arcadecontrols stuff, or will one of the two slogans replace all or part of that?

[shardian]

I just asked because on the winning layout, www.arcadecontrols.com was taking up only1/4 of the circumference of the coin. On previous coins, this has taken up almost half. Would it even be legible at that size? It may be a moot point even trying to go for 2 slogans if there is actually no room for a second.

[MYX]

2nd for the second time. - "One Token (coin) to play them all".
Un2nd "All yer crap slogans..."  No sir...I don't like it.

2nd for "Real gamers use tokens" - from ARCADE5280

[missioncontrol]

I'll go through the slogans tonight at work to second and un-second....

but I do agree with the others that say 2 slogans is too many....

[ahofle]

I un-third it.  I never liked that. It's just too 'inside' IMHO. 

Technically, 'all your base' is not even arcade-related.  It's from a console port of zero-wing.  The original arcade game had so such engrish cut scenes.

[XtraSmiley]

Build, Restore, Play in latin= Constructum , Restituo , Lascivio

Which I like.

No Cash Value = haud cash pendo

I also like the "one token to play them all" but how about "one coin to play them all"?

I think it sounds  a little better.

Insert To Fight
1 Coin, 1 Credit
1 Coin, 1 Up
For Slot Use Only
Nostalgia Value Only

Uggh, I suck at this...

[Tahnok]

This is cobbled together latin, but:

"e plurimus ludus, vita"

Please, anyone with any knowledge of Latin, feel free to correct!

Second.

One slogan is all that's needed IMO. Also, I don't much care for the "all your" either.

[quarterback]

I don't much care for the "all your" either.

So many haters.    Can't all you guys just wait for the vote to see what wins?   Does there really need to be a campaign against any one slogan?   Guess what, there are a lot of slogans I don't care for either.  Do I need to make a post every time I see a slogan I don't like?

Okay then, I don't much care for anything in latin.  I really hope nothing in latin wins the vote.   

[SirPeale]

Every time I hear 'all your base' for the coins I throw up a little in my mouth.

[Santoro]

Peale -

Quarterback -  don't worry, people are gonna vote for what they want. It's anonymous. 

[XtraSmiley]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^ OK to hell with it, how about:

all your base are belong to us IN LATIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

totus vestri substructio es belong nobis

Wait does that please you two or make you both hate me....

[Havok]

Every time I hear 'all your base' for the coins I throw up a little in my mouth.

All your game are belong to us!

Muhahahaha!

[missioncontrol]

I went through and took the ones Santoro had listed and added the ones I seconded and any others I thought that I saw someone second. I added the name of the first person who suggested it. but after all that work was to tired to get the name of the person who seconded it. so here is the list so far....

I suggest that if you have any additions to this list, that you copy this list, add the additions to the bottom of the list, and repost it with your additions so that Santoro has something to go by when making the polls....

[missioncontrol]

If I were president I'd make tokens the only form of currency 

[MYX]

Well, then what would we do with the paper monies we have in our pocketsses right now? Huh?

Well, if I were president, every Thursday would be icecream day. oh... and No Nude Texans!
Oh, and cabinet building would be an excusable absence from work.

[missioncontrol]

Well, then what would we do with the paper monies we have in our pocketsses right now? Huh?

I most likely have more tokens in my pocket right now than I do paper money....

[missioncontrol]

I need more tokens

[Havok]

I need more tokens

That's MY slogan!

[missioncontrol]

I know, I was thirding, fourthing or fifthing it.... (whatever numer it is)

[ARCADE5280]

Just to clarify...are these the two slogans that are changing?  Or is it the "BUILD. RESTORE. PLAY." and "ALL YOUR GAME..."?



Slogan A is currently "THE GAME IS NEVER OVER"
Slogan B is currently "ALL YOUR GAME ARE BELONG TO US"

[ARCADE5280]

I would like to see "COCKTAILS ANYONE?" as slogan A and "ALL YOUR GAME..." as slogan B (whatever number in nominations we are on these).  I think that "BUILD. RESTORE. PLAY."  sums up BYOAC well.

If we are voting on two we might want to vote one first and then the second to make sure we don't have one slogan being selected for both areas.

[MYX]

Wow MC that is a lot of tokens. You keep em in a jar?

We could have a token with nothing but slogans spiraling inwards. That way everyone has a part. the other side would be left blank as a memorial for all those who chose not to participate.

[fatfingers]

I would like to see "COCKTAILS ANYONE?" as slogan A ...

I will second this one.

If you vote "One Token...", people will think that you are cool. A trend setter even. It is the kind of slogan that you will want to have on YOUR token. It will be like a keep sake that you can pass to your children and your childrens children, but not theur children as they are a bunch of little brats.

[Havok]

I un-second "One Token to play them all "


j/k

[JoyMonkey]

Where do we vote?

[Lilwolf]

LOL!

To get the ball rolling on the voting process We should make today the last day for new ideas before we start discussing and narrowing it down to the top finalist to vote on....

That will never fit on a token. Come on man...what were you thinkin' 

4 8 15 16 23 42

[Lilwolf]

is it too late to add a few?  I was out of town!

"Because the entire arcade doesn't fit in my basement"
"Yes it plays <insert game here>"
"Yes it plays pacman"
"It plays the ALL"
"Because there was more then 5 classics"
"If I had this as a child, I would have been god"
"Because I dreamed of having one since I was a kid"
"I practice incase one day we are invaded from space"
"Because kids of today never seen a token"
"As seen in my childhood imagination"

[Havok]

I think Santoro should create a new thread with a poll.

Can we even do that many options?

LOL... Haven't heard that for a long time. for what ever reason it also reminded me of the (old) Metalica - Garage Days album..."I got something to say(yah) I ..."  Why did James always end every sentance with Yah. It is like he thought he was James Brown or something. James you aren't a member of This board are you???

[Q*Bert_OP]

I'll second "yes, it plays pacman"

[sodapopinski]

Where do we vote?

as long as Santoro doesn't mind I'll set up the poll so that we can keep the ball rolling.... since this thread has been inactive for seconds on other slogans I'm going to assume that it's time to vote....

edit... voting now open
