¿Question #682?
bentlarsen: Should BGG create a calander called, "The Women of Board Game Geek," and give the money to charity? Would you buy a copy?

Woelf: There's no possible way that could end badly.
ocdspectrum: I think more games that objectify women would also serve your purpose.
Jrtolf: Probably not, but maybe if my friends were in it.
DaveM1: No and no
pwilz: Sad to say, I probably would buy such a calender. Howver, I don't suggest it.
Smoo: Yes. No.
Felimid: Yes ... as long as the women of boardgamegeek.com were okay being photographed for it. If they weren't, no thanks.
MamaRat: Yes, they should make a calendar. I wouldn't even need to buy a copy--I could perform the most charitable act possible by NOT posing in it.
Zedsdead: yes Yes YES
Gamedeity: probably not
Hector Vortac: OMG, I was just thinking about this on the drive to work. And such an old question. Karma?
zeotter: Sure, anything to help the Geek.
jannelle: I would want to BE IN the calendar
kdiddy13: No. I'd just download it off of Google Images like the rest of my 'celebrity' porn
dietevil: I'd just donate the money to charity
Geosmores: No and No
robosheep: no and no
guttedgeek: Yes and yes
A.C.: No and No.
DHEK: Well, if they got some fine-looking women around willing to participate, then yeah, they should give it a go. If it doesn't cost too much I'd get myself a copy, yeah.
Tegre: depends if we can see a preview of the calander.
clesiemo3: no, and given that they're probably not the finest specimens of the female realm I say, "heck no"
aleo09: worth a shot
GrandpaDave: Probably
Cut & Space: Yes, no
dmomo: Sure. Sure.
brainrob: No and no
hoffcorp: No and no, the second answer being the reason for the first.
Cromaa: Yes. Probably.
nexttothemoon: Yes...sounds interesting.
zaiga: No. Yes. No.
Avatar_69: Would any women of BGG agree to have their photo taken for it?
Helenoftroy: how odd, exactly how many women would that be? and no
jasta6: no,no.............
vampywife: That is an intriguing idea, but i'm not sure it would be totally worth it in the end.
misanthrope: Sure
Nekura: No and yes
BeeCeeJay: Yes and yes... very cool idea!
dwarf: You could do an yearly edition. Girls of 2005 etc. If girls were posing doing their stuff like a real photo shoot than yes if they are like the one in this picture. http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/72721
Maraud: Uhm, no. If they did, I doubt it.
Rukasu: No
e.c.r.: no - probably no
POvidiusNaso: They should and I would.
javelin98: Yes, yes, and yes. And yes. Oh, yes. Bring it on!
ssmooth: No
chockle: no no
erli: I hope there will be a "Men of BGG" calendar as well and I hope the money goes to needy geeks.
sourwyrm: i'm morbidly curious
Mease19: yes
verandi: no
Lord_Prussian: No No No No No
heli: depends on execution
rdmasters: That would be a very surprising enterprise. Let me know if you manage to pull it off. And it depends: Gross, Net or Partial? And which charity?
AWildEep: haha sure. mayeb
ValJor: I had originally replied "No and no" but as you complained that my answers were always too short, I thought I should go back to some of them and give you a longer answer. That being said, I still maintain that the idea of a calender of female geeks is not that great, unless you can contact the girl in this picture: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/72721
Knowbody: no, sorry but I don't buy any calenday women!
kimapesan: Yes, but who would volunteer?
skrutsch: Ummm...no, I don't think so.
snoozefest: prob not
JoeSteadman: what is it rated?
scriptorum: I don't know what a calandar is, but if we create one it should be called "The GeekQuestioners of Board Game Geek" and the proceeds should go to buying me dinner.
Wintergoblin: I think the calendar would be a good idea, but I wouldn't buy it.
GuyHill: unable to process mental image
kennyb: probably not
AlorielLelyn: No, I wouldn't buy that either.
gnomehome: Maybe they can work on implementing a 'trade by country' feature first.
Cavedog_pdx: Only if Cemile is on it! =)
2amp: yes, yes
Salt-Man Z: I wouldn't buy it, but I'd be hard-pressed not to check out the scans online.
onky: Not a calander, I'd think of a calendar though...:)
kuhrusty: Assuming you meant "colander," I think that's a dumb name for a kitchen implement which few geeks even use. And implying that food preparation is for women is just the sort of sexist BS which BGG can do without.
fsumarc: shudder. not sure.
MisterCranky: Of course! But then, I have seen a few of them.
Dave: I suspect it would be a bunch of pictures from Busen Memo...
CDRodeffer: Why not? Get Matt Horn to line things up.
DangerMouse: Hmmm, I dunno. Who's on the cover?
sumo: Just post JPGs
chaddyboy_2000: Awesome!
Belash: yes... maybe
djlg: No. No.
djflippy: No
BobDodgerBlue: No
raolsson: No. Well, I guess it depends on the charity.
darthcliff: Is Charity one of the women on BGG?
jaredh: That would be interesting...
louiseh: Only if I featured prominently.
Ludocrazy: No
Karlsen: Only if GROGnads was on the cover
Shakar: Nope.
Eric Haas: What's a "calander"?
Flyspeck23: No, no. And no.
netfilterz: No
Denise: Guys, most of us are ordinary women just like your wives/GFs, sisters, co-workers, etc. Do you REALLY want to see any of those women in the typical calendar picture shots? I thought not. Next time, think about what you are asking before you ask.
Debate: Hell yeah.
ScottBecker: Backburner.
queequeg: No
Jim_P: Sure
jttm: Yes, but only because its for charity.
CortexBomb: How about ,,The Sexiest Meeples of the Year" instead with the best bits from games released during the previous year...the women idea is just too mainstream
Blackwind: sure and sure!
skelebone: Yah, that sounds like a great idea, I'll be sure to get right on that.
