When we were seated the server explicitly said we didn't need to bring the chip with us.
I've seen similar systems in other "upscale premium" hotels (like Marriotts in Japan), albeit with small wooden toothpicks rather than plastic chips. But I find the plastic chips fit with the W's design aesthetic... I'd find wooden toothpicks to be out of place. The W is not a StR or RC, I have no problem with a table numbering system at a W.
Were you at the Woo Bar or Yen Bar?
Both. Service in both was fine, I just wasn't super impressed by any of the drinks.

In both bars when I arrived they first asked for my room number, and then brought me the special happy hour menu.
