I like the idea of coming up with a new numbering system, and Thom is working very hard to come up with one that will work well. The idea of a system that will, at least, identify the origin of the chip is welcome in my opinion. If the new sytem adds a few numbers than that would be fine by me. Vegas is still the largest casino destination in the country by far but other areas are growing, and growing fast. I feel that more than ever there is a need for a system that is more elaborate than the one in place now. We, as a club, should grow and adapt along with the casino industry. Just my 2 cents, I hope there are more that feel the same way I do. Keep up the good work Thom.
