NEWS FLASH. NEW PAULSON MOLD IMMINENT

[TenPercenter]

I'm told again today, that we were given wrong information. The new word from Trademark Poker is that the new Paulson chips will have a NEW MOLD, not a bigger inlay. Here is the quote:

First, I gave you some wrong information. We are having the mold changed and not increasing the size of the inlay. We are having the mold redone to accomodate the inlay not increase the size of the inlayt.

New mold, bigger inlay, I don't care. As long as it's one or the other.

This seems kind of crazy. Isn't it easier to put in the bigger inlay than retool the die for the chips?

You would think so, but there seems to be no logic to the things Paulson does...

Damn the tire is flat. Time for a new car.

Actually, I was kinda excited for the bigger inlay to fill all the space the had around samples like the James Bond chip.

Also, I'd prefer them to take "paulson chips" off the outside and just have the H&C. IF they want to be different than casinos, just have 4 at each end North South East West.

Oh.. and just to be an ass it is imminent. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

This goes back to my original theory (once the JB's came out) that NO ONE seemed to agree with. My theory is that the most important thing to Paulson is that the only inlay allowed on the home market is the STANDARD (small) size. They are making a new mold because they understand that it looks a little funny having a small inlay with all that empty space left before the edge of the texture starts.

I have believed that they will be making a new mold since day one. I got completely slammed on TH-P.com about my theory being wrong. Only yesterday was I convinced I was wrong when I heard from TWO sources that they will be allowing a grand inlay, and no mold change. Then today, a flip-flop.

I guess we'll know once we see the photos, right? Either way, we're ordering these chips.

Hey hey!
Fantastic news!
(I just hope they use the concentric circles per your recent mock up)
I was actually a bit disappointed with the news of a Grand Inlay. Inlay shapes are nice, but shaped Grands would be, well... kinda unusual.
As far as I'm concerned, things are just perfect so far!
Let's take the time and do this right.
Gimme concentric circles! (and white $1 chips)

[toots]

Definitely.

The older H&C chips with the standard inlay have a concentric circle groove (albeit outboard of the H&Cs), and I think it definitely is a positive addition to the mold.

And, I'm with you, Ten. Whichever way it comes, I'm buying.

(But I still kinda liked your artwork better with the backgrounds.)

[zackallen]

ok, i am a retard..

what are concentric circles?
