(What did you expect, an inch thick stack of fifties brought to your house?)

BKS & Beirut are proud (almost) to bring you The Frontroom Summer Babe Contest.

The ten winners who picked the right numbers will peruse the Babe Thread, look over the lovelies, linger over the lingerie, and chose the Top Ten Babes of all time. Judges have until midnight this Sunday.*

Once the Top Ten are chosen, a poll will be made and you the members will vote for the Ultimate Frontroom Summer Babe who will represent us at the United Nations and other sporting events. The poll should be up Monday night.

Prizes, really stupid ones, will go out to the winning judge and one lucky voting member.

*(Judges please PM a link to your chosen hottie to BKS or myself. First come first served if two chose the same pic. Choices must come from existing Babe Thread pics.)

Please do not post pics in this thread, links or comments are fine.

Have fun!

And here I was all set to move into the Org post-nuclear bunker. What a let-down.

Good...good.

This ought to be good.

Bring 'em on.

Lucky bar-stewards :sweatdrop:

w00t! woot!

I wonder if any Asian-babe lover has been a judge by luck...Or I'll be making some "noise" :smoking:

82 pages and 1640 posts to peruse, and over a thousand scantily clad babes to closely examine. A tough job, but somebody's got to do it. :sweatdrop:

w00t I Freakin Scored

Where do you want us to post our selections Beirut?

ROFL !
:bow: to you, guys, this was pretty funny indeed ! :2thumbsup:

edit: oh yeah, one question, though, since we're talking about babes.
Why is BKS written with a pink colour, I thought he wasn't very keen on being pimped by BP (and claimed as a lass) a while ago ? :laugh4:
So, anyway, if his pic is still in there somewhere, is he fair game ? :sweatdrop:

The Imperialist Club has one.








Do YOU?

That's okay, Lemur, you can join the Indifferent Gentlemen's club - once you're there, you won't care if the end of the world comes.

His name is in pink because of his love for the Floyd.

As for the rest of your post, I must have misunderstood because it sounded like you were about to disrespect The Lord Of the Frontroom to whom I am maniacally loyal. :inquisitive:

I guess I'll put this away...

I'll take that as a 'No'...

Well Beirut, you didn't have to go through all of that, I'd have volunteered to do this job.

... as a 14 year old, I'm glad I didn't even post yet because I have been banned from the frontroom by my parents... Of course, I'd like to check it out occasionally.

Your parents are orgahs as well?

On the bright side, I don't have to look through all the posts with this connection ~:thumb:

Ahh that picture is so much better in colour !




Nice initiative by the way :2thumbsup:

:balloon2:

So, what was the pattern for guessing the right numbers?

Being a moderator helps. :grin:

Nice initiative by the way. w00t!

Yes I'd like to know this too.

Apparently Louis knows it, would like to know how he came to know it ...

:balloon2:

I think they were somehow based off my age.

babes babes babes. Honestly, anyone would think all there was to life was babes, :kiss2: : beer, ~:cheers: and bikes :helmet: ..

:2thumbsup:

My recommendation has been submitted. Although, I think a few here might violently dissaprove. :charge:

Oh, and I think booby prizes should be given to the "loosers" (not sure how well that joke translates).

and eh...i wasnt around :S...who are the lucky members...?

me:2thumbsup:

damn...lucky you...

cool. I'll have a look at them all again.

Pattern?

If you can find a pattern in those numbers aside from "What numbers come to Beirut's mind while he has one finger up his nose and the other tap-tap-tapping on the desk" then you're a better man than me.

you sure do - no arguments there. but you might wanna check post #197 on page 7 though. It may be in the family photos too, but it's in there like I said as well.

Louis, we need an explanation:inquisitive:

Explanation: Louis is French.

Couldnt have said it better myself. :laugh4:

Oh gosh, what a horrible prize for those poor people, spending hours upon hours looking at half-naked women...

Lucky Poor sods...

Interesting fact #1 about the Babe Thread - 1,600+ replies, yet 52,000+ views!

Yeah, it was a tough job.

For a moment, when I saw Louis' post in the babe thread "I get to pick one" before seeing this thread, I for a moment thought the prize was to IRL meet one of the babes soly has posted in the babe thread ~:)

Just a note but 4 was picked twice. First by Mithandir (or what's his name) and after that Beirut edited his post MAster of puppets (or was it someone else) posted 4 again and got picked too.

Staff members weren't allowed to participate, let alone win.

:balloon2:

So de we post the picture in the Babes Thread? And does the babe already have to be posted before?

Yes, has to be posted there.

Oh. So that's why. huh.

It's time...

Teh pattern is: the human minding trying to come up with ten numbers from 1 to 50 that appear random. :book:

Now, there is an extensive psychology to that. The numbers people come up with, are in fact not random at all. They are chosen to avoid structure or repetition.

Few would come up with 1,2,3,4,5, etc. It appears unnatural, unrandom. Of course, the odds of ten really random numbers being a nice consecutive sequence are mathematically speaking as likely as any other sequence.
The same holds true for any other structure. Few would chose 10 numbers that all end with the same number, 2, 12, 22, 32 etc. Or double numbers only, or prime numbers, repetition or any other series that appears to have an underlying structure.

What you therefore have to look for, is for all possible traces of structure and then choose a number that doesn’t fit in.

I picked 33 after 50, 42, 17 where named correct. They feature the digits 0 1 2 5 7. Notice the absense of 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9. Notice that there are no double numbers yet either (11, 22, 33, 44). 66, 88 and 99 are not possible, numbers 1 and 2 are in already. Leaving 33. The odds for 33 unconsiously having come to Beirut's mind while he had one finger up his nose and the other tap-tap-tapping on the desk were thus very high.

I am that clever. :sweatdrop:

(side note: I do not know the order in which they were picked. But that doesn’t matter. If 33 was the first number to have been picked, 17-42-50 would have been more likely to have been picked next)

That's clever. I've heard of that kind of stuff before, especially 7 being a popular "random" number. Though I've never tried it in practise, especially not with 2 digit numbers, and I had no idea it actually worked that well. :2thumbsup:

Anyway, damaged by knowledge about generating random numbers by using time, I never thought these numbers would be randomized by a human mind. The way to generate random numbers by using time is to take the rest from a division by the number of numbers you want the interval to be, i.e., if you want numbers from 1 to 50, you keep taking times in milliseconds generated by a stop watch and divide them by 50, then take the rest. I.e.:

99 / 50 = 1 rest 49, so the random number is 1
43 / 50 = 0 rest 43, so the random number is 43
12 / 50 = 0 rest 12, so the random number is 12
67 / 50 = 1 rest 17, so the random number is 17
etc.

Anyway, great work Louis

yes but under the name beirut had added that he was in before the other guy posted. So he just could use that one being sure it was the right number. Ofcourse he could also have been as clever as Louis.

Still waiting for a few PMs from the judges. Hope to have this soup in the pot by Tuesday night. Sorry about the delay.

Give the man some time to recover, he could have a bad heart after all. Then again, he could still be, ummm, debating, over his favorite.

Not sure what a Sicilian joke is, so I'm curious to find out what it is. In other words - let's hear that Sicilian joke! :2thumbsup:

Very sorry about the delay. It's all being put together. Very soon.

We need to put Discovery1 in stocks so we can pelt him with tomatoes in the town square.

i once tried to tell a proud sicilian a joke, the joke went somewhere along the lines of "hey are you proud your people used to be romans, OF course not, your ancestors were carthaginian, bow to the real italian you elephant rider", for some reason it almost ended in a fight, mabey he's just high strung.

So whens this going down Beirut I'm getting anxious.

Yeah, has the new judge made his decision?

Yep, all is final. Give it about ten hours. Real life, you know...

.
And you still don't ban real life! :furious3: At least give out some warning points. :gah2:
.

Aren't Sicilians more a mix of Romans, Greeks, Carthaginians, Normans, Muslims (Arabs?) and native Sicilians? They're not just Carthaginian.
