The Tradition Draft

Time for tradition. Dog days of summer (I think we're getting giddy about out 13th man signings now) and Erin Andrews fresh in our minds (or hard drives, whatever). I do not condone that man, but I would give him a high five. Such is the moral ambiguity of that.

Anyways, sign up here. Basically, everyone picks a girl, and we do it snake draft, with as many rounds as it will go. I recommend 5, because any more and it's a pain for everyone involved. Once the "starting 5" are picked, then we'll decide on winner and whatnot.

Remember guidelines for the pics are as follows:

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


Once we have 10 posters, I'll generate a draft order, and then off we go.

You basically draft female hotties. First guy takes, say, Megan Fox, second guy takes Jessica Alba, etc.

If this board had a soundtrack right now, it'd be the sound of chirping crickets.

Cricket? That's a great favorite Australian pastime.
