What is your Ultimate Desire?

A foray into UltiPorn.

Do you watch Ultimate Porn? If so what takes your fancy?

Ultimate Porn or Ultiporn for short: What is it and who is it for? Well, there are many different forms of Ultiporn, just as there are many forms of internet porn. Some of the forms might be particular fetishes like sex only using the feet or girls with fake breasts as opposed to real ones. Wait, sorry. Some of the forms that excite ultimate players might be media such as videos and pictures of elite level games where players have performed spectacular acts such as throws, dives, and catches, while alternative forms which please could be tightly detailed descriptions of a particular defense or an advanced throwing drill. Other people might even get theirs from seeing minutes of a club’s meetings, team lists from their upcoming tournaments, or emails from their team captain! Just as normal pornography excites and arouses the human desires, so too does ultiporn but to the extreme, this time it's the human's ultimate desires.


Sexxxy???

What types of ultiporn are there? How do you choose a favourite?

When the ultimate senses wish to be indulged and the option of a real game is not there, the potential for other methods of indulgence is realised. The closet pervert among us might prefer top quality pictures of events to pore over, hoping to spy a daring act such as someone laying out or a player getting skied by a big receiver. The text lovers might get it out by reading about their mate scoring on twitter, or perhaps get worked up over the release of the team list for the next national side. The devilish ones out there just can’t wait to get an email back about the funding being approved for a new video camera which they can’t wait to use. The experimental ones might get excited over finding a new website which has all sorts of plays they’d love to try out with their team when the time is right. It's not uncommon for young easily influenced kids even to prefer games such as fantasy ultimate over the real thing.


Of course, if you’re reading this or any other ultimate blog at the moment then you’re already indulging in ultiblog-porn. But rest assured, there’s no need to feel dirty, it’s all perfectly natural. Choosing a favourite type all comes down to experience and ultimate sexual preference.


With so many options how does a new person begin? What is the attraction?

Better than tits?

Obviously the most common mainstream form includes ultimate videos, particularly highlight reel videos (www.ultivillage.com). This is many people’s introduction to the world of Frisbee porn. Of the ultiporn video formats some of us prefer having a full game approach as opposed to those who may only prefer the quick sharp staccato rhythm of highlight reels. Of course people exist who will like watching both full games and highlight reels, and some people may not like any at all. So what is it that attracts some people but not all to even this basic form of ultiporn, because some people just do not get off on this at all? Is it their religious beliefs? Is it a moral or ethical code? Or do they just get enough Ulti Sex, real game-time experiences? These question remain to be asked more often and answered more thoroughly. My belief is that they’re a little bit gay.


For the rest of us anyway, those who don’t yet know where they fit in, we can pick and choose between the different types of ultiporn as we may desire. Some of us may be satisfied with only one or just a few forms. We can also expect that there will be people out there who indulge or have indulged at some time or another in all known forms of ultiporn. Some say change is as good as a holiday, and these people seek change and variety like a hamster seeks out the warm depths of the human colon, as we all too often hear about. Another thing we can be sure of is that there will be people who are shocked when they hear about what another person finds to be a normal and satisfying form of ultiporn!

Case Study #1: Jason DeRooy: Likes: basically all forms of ultiporn from writing emails, filling out blogs, to organising tournaments in his spare time and being executive of QUDA (Queensland Ultimate Disc Association). Lives for ultiporn.

Dislikes: Men in women’s clothing, idle chitchat.

Normal or unacceptable?

So these questions should be asked: What is normal and accepted and what is not? What we should remember is that when it comes to people’s tastes and preferences it will be different for everyone. Where should the line be drawn? For each person this will be different. Some people may draw the line early at the more conventional forms such as highlight reels. Others among us will just keep pushing the boundaries, poring feverishly over administrative details and organising events such as tournaments where their fetishes can be realised and real Ulti Sex can even take place. Every person should feel free to experiment with their Ultiporn desires and be encouraged to step things up to newer levels when a previously favourite experience becomes old.


Acceptance is the new excitement! Go out there and get some ultiporn into you!

Results of Semi Final Round, Semester 2, 2009

The Semifinals Commence!

The Semifinals commenced this week with some different than expected matchups. The Fraternal Order of Red played against 2nd/3rd placers Hammerheads due to confusion with the team rankings. The Hammerheads had to start off their game without team captain Matt Esser who was off fraternising with other sporting codes for the first hour. The arrival of this ultimate dynamo came too late however with a comeback bringing the final score to The Fraternal Order of Red 13 def. Hammerheads 6. Good luck to the team powerhouse Redcoats in the final.

A handblock from Katie "Eugoogley" Gilluly on Simon "Bob Fossil" Urquhart shook up the big zookeeper pretty good in the later stages of the game. However the dominant display by Simon's team of "Racist Dropbears" made sure to keep the not-so-white Pink Panthers from entering their Zoo...

Bob Fossil - great guy
Racist Dropbears 13 def. Pink Panthers 6 to move ahead to the finals.

The game everyone was looking forward to on this finals night was the wooden spoon game of The Last Surviving Dragons against the wooden spoon minor premiership team The Savages. The Last Surviving Dragons showed up late numbering only five or so minus their captain Matt De Witt who's still off living the dream (ie. not being in Townsville). Meanwhile The Savages surely shook them to the core with their full squad looking pretty intense during a number of warm-up drills. Alas the organisation was to end so soon with the fateful decision to hand over their two superstars 6 foot something-taller-than-most-people Adrian Sullivan and Cody "Quick Hands" Hall to provide numbers and apparently even up the game.

The Savages got off to a dominant start scoring a number of quick points and taking the lead which they held for most of the game. For many of the points the whole team was playing their part helping them to victory while the dragons looked decidedly pick-up-y. The Dragons got their scramble on and took things back with little Matty and southern ring-in Sara Cargill utelising their team and throwing lots of things including a few frisbees to Heather in the endzone for some goals.

Now realising there was a chance they could win a prize this year, albeit the wooden spoon, The Savages were torn apart to go down in history as one of the greatest frisbee teams ever!!! Steve Jamieson has now been on the wooden spoon team both semesters he's played in Townsville. Thank god he will be leaving Townsville in a week or 2, I'm sure this is the same reason he had to leave Adelaide. Good luck though Steve, maybe next time your luck slash frisbee skills will improve.

SCOREBOARD, WEEK 8, LAST OF REGULAR LEAGUE GAMES

Sunday, October 25, 2009

Crazy Nuts!

Look, it's getting tough figuring out scores and shit! But remember! Wednesday Night is the frickin' league final! We've got the Racist Dropbears squaring off against the Redcoats (The Fraternal Order of Red)! We're hoping this game will be a cracker and that you crackers are down there for the barbie, cheap piss, and the heckling. Mike's team will be the obvious underdogs coming into this game (NOooootttT!) and we Australians love to cheer for the underdog. So get your red shit together for this top match. Also remember to bring along some gear to play in as there's gonna be a second field set up for a pickup match on the side (a bit like having salad on the side with a steak - it's nowhere near as good as the steak, and mostly kind of pointless, but it still happens somehow).




Anyway see you all there kids. The results will eventually go up when I'm more sober.

Round 7 Results and Table

Here are the results from the first week back after the midsemester break.

Hammerheads 13 defeated The Last Surviving Dragons 4
The Fraternal Order of Red 13 defeated The Savages 4
Pink Panthers 13 defeated Racist Dropbears



Delays and Holidays

Sorry for the delays on the blog, I haven't been around to do any of the scores and whatnot. Tasmania however had some pretty sweet weather and some really weird looking people like you've never seen before. I will do my best to soon update it and I will probably need Kevin to tally the scores for me cause apparently they're wrong.

Anyhoo, finals begin this Wednesday with it being potentially the last game for many teams. But don't forget that it doesn't end there for you people. The week after will be the finals and a barbecue and it is everyone's job who won't be playing to make it down to the fields. Once there please refer to the acceptable "sport" of heckling and fantasy ultimate (one version of the rules on this page: http://www.mit.edu:8001/activities/ultimate/flu/flu.html) for some great ways to abuse or show love for the players on the winning teams.

Lots of love
