I’ve determined that we require a new way to measure how much we desire certain chips. Thus, by using scientific methods and the Fujita Tornado scale which is used for measuring the force of tornadoes as an example, we can now truly express how much we really want something.

Introducing the Jill Bitner Neeeed Scale. The number would denote the number of ‘E’s you want to include when “Jilling” for a chip. For example, instead of saying “I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed a Harrah’s Birthday chip!”, she could say “A Harrah’s Birthday chip is an E-20 for me!” Another possibility of expression is “I need^20 a Harrah’s Birthday chip!” Yet another way is “This chip is a 20 on my JB Neeeed Scale!”

We could put a cap on the scale, but I don’t know how high to go. I figure 20 is a good max, but we could always go higher, depending on how much we neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed something.

This is all just an idea. I don’t know if anything like this has been proposed before, but I thought it might help. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Here are my additions to the “Most Wanted Chips” list:
E-20: Hollywood Park Year of the Ox $8
E-20: Hollywood Park Year of the Tiger $8
E-15: Hollywood Park Year of the Ram $8
E-10: Tropicana Century’s Greatest Moments 1910 $5
E-10: Tropicana Century’s Greatest Moments 1940 $5

There are many other chips I need^5, but these are the ones that popped up first in my head.

Wouldn’t you all agree this is much neater than saying:
I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed a Hollywood Park Year of the Ox $8
I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeed a Hollywood Park Year of the Ram $8
I neeeeeeeeeed a Tropicana Century’s Greatest Moments 1910 $5

I’ll be at the Convention in June, so if anyone sees Jill walking around with a baseball bat in her hand, please warn me in advance.
