SP Virtual Show

[farmboy]

This should be a good rough outline for this deal but anyway...

1-1:30 minute video clip. loose or led in pen or pasture.
limit of 10 pictures
Date of Birth
Fitted or non fitted  ???

Due by August 1 (sunday)

you guys can hash out the details

 

[LT]

Maybe a poll open to all

 

[afhm]

No videos so the dial up users can vote easier.  Maybe require and limit to a side profile, rear view, front view and  top view pictures since that is where the judge looks.  maybe list the breed as well.  how about just clipped instead of fitted?

 

[vet tech]

I agree with the idea for the dial up users. And yea lets put breed, age, sire dam ect... and yea open poll for all to use!

 

[herefordfootball]

Could we do like 2 or 3 pics per calf and a video. That way you have pics for dial up users and video for high speed and dial up users that want to wait. I think we should definitely go fitted!!! Just my thoughts though I will be happy with it no matter what the rules are!!! 

 

[linnettejane]

got an idea...put the pics on here for dial up users...and the video's on the steerplanet you tube channel...

and i think it should definitely be fitted!  you wouldnt walk into a ring without fitting your calf would you?  this is a "real" show right?    but no doctoring allowed to the pics...and we have some very keen eyes on here who will be able to tell, if you doctor the pic you get disqualified...i think a profile, butt, head, and top shot would be good....

and i think each member only gets one vote...we have 3000+ members...could jason somehow fix it that way? 

 

[herefordfootball]

I vote with linnetejane put the vids on steerplanets youtube and the pics on here for the dial up users. Great Idea!!!  (clapping)

 

[afhm]

Is it going to be pick your favorite only or place them in the class.  If fitting is how we go, what about fake hair or changing color pattern?

 

[CM Cattle]

Great idea zach. <party>

 

[linnettejane]

and what about setting classes by age...use the class roster from a big time show...i think it would be too hard to show by breed...at least this first time, till you see how much participation you are going to get...here's an example from naile 2008...course the years are probably off...the dates would have to be corrected...and maybe its too many classes, could combine some of them...dont know...just some suggestions...

could do number of votes places them in a class...

could possibly get fitting rules from another show...

I say no fake hair or anything like that, just your calf, clipped and fitted. Can we use ultra white, jet black, finisher, etc?

 

[stangs13]

I am fine with leg builder and full fit. We have to slick this heifer to get the dead off unfortunatly..but by august I should have plenty to work with!

 

[herefordfootball]

I started a poll under SP Show Options Modified, vote for rules and options there 

 

[SouthWest]

Can this be named the "Red or Kathy" show to honor her friendship to the Planet.

 

[SouthWest]

Set up a Pay Pal account.  If we all donate just $1.00, that will turn out to be one heck of a payout.  More entries will join in.

 

[Davis Shorthorns]

is it going to be only heifers?  Or is it going to be steers and bulls also?
