**2007 BYOAC Tokens, NICKEL ARRIVED-- P I C S ! !***
XyloSesame:
This was my first opportunity to cast a vote, and all of the designs were excellent. I voted for both of Mr C's designs, though the "Retro" slogan made the decision difficult for me as I preferred the text on some of the other designs. I am one of those freaks that reads the fine print, whether on paper or coin...
Outside of Ass Tokens, I'm partial to "Build Restore Play" and would cast a vote in favor; this seems less kitsch than the "Retro" slogan.
Nothing wrong with kitsch, mind you.
Or ass, for that matter.
[EDIT] Regardless of slogan, I'll be ordering... [/EDIT]
patrickl:
"One coin to rule them all" would be a good slogan yes. Good idea :P
I'm not a big fan of the "how retro can you go" slogan, but indeed no one is going to actually read the slogans anyway.
Havok:
Erm...
2006 tokens anyone?
;D
missioncontrol:
we only voted on slogans last year, the previous years it was the artist's work. The main reason for the slogan vote last year was so that we could get more artist involved who might come up with great designs, but not a witty slogan. Most designs last year used the "All your games are belong to us" with the understanding there would be a vote for a slogan.
I'm happy with the design either way. I would rather this particular design keep the "How Retro" slogan because of the design. The "MAME AETERNUS" on the flip side isn't my favorite, but if the artist preferred to keep it. Then I have no objections.
If there had been more entries using a generic slogan, then I would say we need to vote a slogan, but this years submissions each design had themed their particular design around their own slogans.

Yes please. Yes yes yes please.
I'll be ordering some of the 2007 tokens and if possible I'd also like to throw in a request for 2006 tokens as well.
Do we know if there's enough demand to mint another batch?
Perhaps do the same thing as 2007 tokens and setup a pre-order to guage possible demand?
I hate to for ask this cause Santoro already has a chunk on his plate but I really like those tokens and I left it too late last year.
