I'm not 100 % on the meeple...but don't have another idea at this point (helpful, I know). I do like the idea of the dice being the white color. I think it makes them pop.

Here is the mockup without the white:
Meeple V02
I also played with the CAH idea and came up with this:
CAH V01: (The board in the background could also be black & white)
And here is is with no color:
CAH V02:
Obviously, the text is just temporary and if we choose to use this we would come up with our own funny text.
The dice numbers placement are also subject to change due to previous comments, but I think its better to get the composition correct before we get into the details, like text & numbers.
Of course, if there are any other coin ideas from other people, please feel free to post your mock up.
I love the CAH non-colored. The enamel, while cool, just doesn't seem to fit well with the theme and sequence of the coins over the years.
And as a geek related reference to 42, I'd love to see it a little more prominent. Could we spin the first die so the four is more visible and the five less, then turn the other the opposite way to show the two?
Love Firefly meets CAH, it's brilliant.
- Biting's excellent! It's like kissing. Only there's a winner.

I'm not sure i love the enamel. Adding color makes me think of all the coins they sell on tv at like 4 in the morning. So maybe it would look ok but i prefer the non colored version. Then again, maybe i'm only resistant to change in the no color history of our coins.
Also, like meeple idea, but love CAH idea.
So i'd vote for CAH V02.
MY Vote: Combination of all 3: The coin looks amazing, but can we get best of all worlds? The Card, the meeple in the back ground, and the dice? I like the 3d version of the checker board on Meeple V02.

I like the idea of the meeple being added with CAH! I would also like to cast a vote for keeping the color, just to be different.

I vote for CaH but isn't the coin too small to have something printed on the cards?
No, it shod be fine.

@SkeleVader it's just the center we're deciding on right? Gonna go steal a friends computer this weekend to try and and bring my idea to life on PS and wanna make sure I only have to worry about the center?
I definitely like the Meeple there, I think that says "tabletop" better than the cards - and maybe would be even more obvious if a deck of cards was sitting on the table sticking out from behind the Meeple (the Community logo could even appear on the back of the card deck). I also like the idea of having white on the coin, just to keep the coins feeling new and different from previous years. I agree that the logo on the dice doesn't work if you want the dice to read as "13", what would work better would be if you put the logo on the other die, where either the 2 or the 6 is.

Yes, just the center. The outer ring is always the same each year.

Hey SkeleVader, do you have the psd of the design? I'm working on my design now
Alright guys! Here's my design! The dice are kept for the tabletop feel and the controller for all the great titles awaiting us this year (controller signifying the console gamer demographic).

The controller coin is a great idea. I want the coins.

Wonderful design! The 13 on the dice makes sense as its pax 2013 and I love the idea of a controller with dice. That said, perhaps a little bit of cleaning on the edges and maybe we could see it with the checker background like Skelevaders?
I also played with the CAH idea and came up with this:
CAH V01: (The board in the background could also be black & white)

Nah, I don't think Cards Against Humanity is a good representation.
Still going with the controller as my original choice, though yours is good too.

But 42 is the answer!

Instead of a meeple, how about playing cards done in the style of a certain popular party game for horrible people?
Perhaps a 'white' and 'black' card with something PAX related as the text, if it's at all visible?

So i'd vote for CAH V02.
Though I'm embarrassed to say I still haven't had a chance to actually play it.

I do like the Meeple design because it encompasses the majority tabletop games. But CAH IS so awesome. Really tough choice.
With that said, CAH V02 get my vote.
It's the person piece from the game carcassonne.
I love the tabletop theme, but think an array of dice would be great. (D20, D8, D6, D4). Checkerboard or hexes would make a cool background.
I'd vote smooth edges, no enamel.

Very nice. I vote for jev's design! Clean and elegant
You did good work, it looks great, don't get me wrong. It just doesn't flow right.

Skelevador, any chance you have the photoshop files? i might play around with it a bit too.
