The "Tradition" Scouting Combine (may be NSFW)

OK, guys, here are the rules. We will have 10 rounds with the order snaking back and forth. Once a pick is made, the next guy has 12 hours to make his pick.

To remind everyone of the "Tradition Pic" Guidelines:

count55 wrote:Some clarifications on the tradition pics:

As before, no nudity or pornography, however, we just need to lay out the guidelines a little more clearly.

They must be contained to the OP of the gamethreads only. Occasionally, one will leak, and we can still do the Tradition draft, but we should primarily limit them to the game threads.

They should not contain simulated sex, either with partners or implements. Obviously all of these pictures imply sex in one degree or another, but it should be relatively straightforward to differentiate between seductive and brazen. Regrettably, we'll have to use the Potter Stewart "don't know how to define it, but know it when I see it" standard.

Regarding nudity, we should really avoid photoshopping nude pictures to cover up the strategic bits. It's ok if there's some cheek, but that should be about it. Hand bras (as long as it's their own) are OK, but, again, we should be aware of the pose.

When selecting pics, we should think SI Swimsuit, Maxim, FHM (minus the page 3 girls), etc. Not Playboy, Penthouse, etc.

We need to remember that this is a PG-13 site with some underage posters. I like the Tradition pics as much, if not more, than most. However, we'll be much better off policing ourselves than having someone else do it. I know a couple of other boards have banned the use of "Tradition" type pics, and I definitely don't want it to come to that.

If you have a question on a pic, just PM me.

Thanks, count55


When it is your turn, you will announce your choice and post up to three (3) pictures (and no more) of that girl. These pics should be no larger than 640x480. If you use imageshack or photobucket for image hosting, you will see sizing options in the upload screen.

How do we post pictures on this site [img]LINK[/img] or is it different?

Posted: Sun Jun 8, 2008 7:56 pm
by count55
That should work, I think, but I use Imageshack, and they have code that I just copy and paste.

Just going to test it really quick.

EDIT: Long link, but didn't work, I'll try your way.

*cough*15-20 rounds*cough*

I move that we make the draft at least 15 rounds. Sure, it will be even harder this year with twice the amount of participants, but the funnest part is at the end where you have to frantically look up chicks you've never even heard of to see if they're a lil cutie.

As for myself, I could go to 20 rounds, because I've been doing some, ahhh, "pre-draft workouts" to see who I'm interested in, and the talent field is as deep as ever this year. :P

Haha...

That pre-draft workouts line was great arti...we missed you.

BTW...if I remember, we extended the draft last "season"/

Jessica Alba

I almost feel required to pick her. There's hotter women out there, but none I'd rather nail. There's just something about her. Well, enough babbling...

When it is my turn, I'm going to need someone to help me post pics. Sorry, I have no idea what Imageshack is. Should I just PM someone?

PS, very nice start harding.

I want to pick, but the gal that I want as my first rounder I could get later in the first round, if I can pick up an extra pick somewhere down the line... :wink:

I can't figure out how to put a picture up. I uploaded a picture to photo bucket but I can't get a link for it.

If you use photobucket, you just copy and past the IMG code... This is the first time that I have used this and it worked great, and was easy....

Awesome pick Pacen...and I don't think she would have been there much later...

I don't think this is a surprise by any means, with the third overall pick in the 2008 RealGM Pacers Forum "Tradition Draft" Pacer Perspective selects...

Eva Longoria-Parker
