There was no rhyme or reason as to who got picked. It was the first 64 women I could think of who I wanted to see naked (again).
The bracket came about because I stopped at uploading 64 pictures to my profile, which is the right number for a bracket.
I've never heard of Sensual Jane. I'll look into her stuff.
We may do another bracket down the line. I'm debating whether to crowdsource who can get in. I might open it up to suggestions, but some editorial discretion would probably be in order.

The discussion is great, guys, but remember to be clear if you want your vote to count.
@Twentyfive, you clearly have a knock on Michaels, but that doesn't make it clear if you're voting for Brooke, neither or not voting at all.
It's going to matter in this one, because this one is very close.

Bumping this so we avoid having Ducati/Hamilton on top.

Kristi may have shaped my taste in women: Big hair, big breasts, big smile, can dance, can flirt, has certain sweetness to her without seeming naive. Soooooo hot.
However, you guys liked Lane for a lot of the same reasons. It'll be a good matchup.

This one was closer than a lot of our others have been recently.
Ducati's a personal favorite that will get a vote from me pretty much as long as she's in the bracket, so we add one more to her total before closing it up.
DUCATI: 13
HAMILTON: 7
NEITHER: 4
̶L̶o̶n̶g̶b̶a̶l̶l̶'̶s̶ ̶a̶v̶a̶t̶a̶r̶:̶ ̶1̶
̶P̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶-̶o̶n̶-̶p̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶m̶e̶:̶ ̶1̶
Ducati gets to ride her motorcycle onward, while Hamilton gets in a shootout but still loses the duel. History repeating, I guess.
Ducati will go up against Akira Lane in the next round.

I don't feel like Coliseum was the big competition for Penthouse.
The other clubs on 8 Mile might see a slight bump, but I think a lot of the worthwhile business was shifting to Flight Club before this even happened.
It'll be interesting to watch the reviews from Detroit going forward. It will be interesting to see if folks can report where some old favorites have landed, assuming they remain in the biz.

This one kind of died on the vine, probably due to the proliferation of posts about Penthouse closing. That said, I don't mind. My strategy worked; while the thread did have only mild confusion over which Vicca we were actually talking about, we avoided this turning into the mess that you can find in just about every other corner of the Internet. TUSCL, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm proud of you.
It also helped that this was a blowout. I will add a vote for Vicca as well. Redhead, plus smart and sexual is a huge turn on to me.
VICCA: 17
KELLY T.: 1
Julie VEE (the other Vicca): 3
Crab Chat: 2
All the Viccas beat Kelly T., or we can make an obvious joke about Russia finally bringing down you-know-who, blah blah blah whatever.
Vicca was solid in this one. The 17 votes tops Cori Nadine's 16 to lead the Model Bracket thus far, while her 94.4 percent vote share bests Nikki Fritz's 90.9 percent for the highest share in the competition thus far. I don't know if I'd call her a favorite to win the whole thing, but maybe a favorite to come out of the Model Bracket for sure.
Renae Cruz will be Vicca's foe in the second round.

The Floating World used to maintain a calendar like that, and maybe SCL does. But I haven't checked on either in a long time and don't really care to at the moment.

That article made me laugh in a few different ways. Apparently "dark areas" are now a problem at clubs. Also, yes, people were having sex just out in the middle of the neighborhood around 8 Mile. Huh?

@justin: The Vicca you found is not the same woman. The pictures got newer, but she got younger.
I think that's another, more-recent model that also goes by Vicca.

I think Jack, and most folks, have moved on from PHC. My last visit in May was depressing. The place was a shell of its former self. It had gone downhill fast, even in the one month since my previous visit.
Detroit, outside the city, is still extras-friendly, and FC is still worth the trip. But PHC was my first extras club. It was also the first club I went to basically because of this site.
Hard to believe a place that made you feel so good can be seen as so bad by some folks. It seems wrong.

Part of the goal has been to turn folks on to some new potential favorites. Seems to be working.

This one turned out to be a pretty good battle, but it's time to end it.
I'll toss one more vote Lane's way. She's the right mix of perky and sexy. I only caught the tail end of Tweed's B-movie career and while she was hot, she was definitely a MILF before that was a thing, and while I don't mind MILFs, I'd rather have the cheerleader type.
LANE: 14
TWEED: 7
̶U̶n̶p̶u̶r̶p̶o̶s̶e̶f̶u̶l̶ ̶u̶n̶c̶l̶a̶r̶i̶t̶y̶:̶ ̶3̶
̶P̶u̶r̶p̶o̶s̶e̶f̶u̶l̶ ̶u̶n̶c̶l̶a̶r̶i̶t̶y̶:̶ ̶1̶
̶B̶o̶t̶h̶:̶ ̶1̶
Lane was who I thought would win this when I put together the bracket, but given how you guys were starting to skew older and toward more-established names, I thought Tweed would pull it out. But, nope, my original thought was right. The Lane train keeps a'rollin' all night long.
She'll draw the winner of a showdown I'm personally looking forward to, Kristi Ducati versus Wendy Hamilton.

A reminder to everyone: Comments are nice, but be clear about who you're voting for.
@DrStab, I sense you're leaning Tweed, but it's unclear. I'm going Tweed for the moment for you.
@VH, you spoke only of Tweed, so I think that's your choice, but yeah.
Imagine if we ever got the functionality to do real polls on these posts.

I don't really give it much thought. I honestly think you're just done. It's like going to sleep, only you never wake up again.
It's part of the reason I'm OK with clubbing. We're here, we're gone. We should do what we enjoy while we're here.

@esta: I appreciate your candor. Trust has been earned.
I think your point is valid. I'll counter with this:
- I'm probably younger than a healthy chunk of this board (late 30's)
- I live in a non-extras area of the country where LE is pretty vigilant about locking down P4P
- While I have a SO and we have a healthy sex life, she's been an exception in my life in terms of "getting some." I'm not the guy who wins women over at bars with my good looks. I'm not appealing to women "in reality," even having tried to read up and hone my game. Being 5-foot-4 doesn't help, as a majority of women will automatically pass over guys 5-foot-9 and under in dating apps. https://www.revelist.com/dating/women-dating-short-men/11939
- I'm comfortably middle class, but not a huge earner. I have to scrimp some to cover my club visits. Because P4P of any form is so rare here, what is out there is often out of my budget, beneath my standards of quality or would require me to not partake with the frequency I want due to having to save up.
- I'm OK with technology. I golf and actually kind of like going to the local simulator place better than actually playing a course if the weather's nice. I'm of the belief that things made as the result of human ingenuity and thought (i.e. technology) are more impressive than that which just happened to luck out and be beautiful by chance. That means both I don't mind sex through a screen and don't mind surgical alterations. "She's so beautiful and natural," says a man about the woman wearing all kinds of makeup, eyeliner tattoos, threaded eyelashes, hair extensions and a Wonderbra who has toned her body with the help of all kinds of modern machines at the gym and a personal trainer. I've said this before in this bracket: I think natural is overrated. It's what you do with what you have that impresses me. I don't mind golf simulators, and I don't mind surgically simulated breasts. Bring on the VR sex revolution.
Add it up:
- Yeah, you can pay for sexual favors, if you can afford it outside of other costs. Porn is far cheaper and still satisfying.
- Real pussy ain't all that easy to get for some of us. Maybe it is for a lot of you, but for me, nope.
- I find there's an art to well-made porn. When you watch enough of it and can compare porn to other porn, when you run across "good stuff," you appreciate it, and the people involved. Which is a lot of my reason for the bracket: To show appreciation for the women who have "done it" for me through the screen.
So yes, I get where you're coming from, and maybe if it was easier for me to go out and get laid in reality, I wouldn't be as into porn. But, at least for a guy like me, it ain't that easy, even through P4P.

Let's close this up:
KENSINGTON: 11
LEE: 6
NEITHER: 4
̶A̶ ̶h̶a̶l̶f̶-̶a̶-̶d̶o̶z̶e̶n̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶w̶h̶o̶ ̶k̶n̶o̶w̶s̶ ̶w̶h̶a̶t̶:̶ ̶1̶
̶P̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶-̶o̶n̶-̶p̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶m̶e̶:̶ ̶1̶
̶D̶o̶ ̶I̶ ̶h̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶o̶?̶ ̶1̶ (don't let the haters fool you; 'Neither' is a valid choice and I'm a little surprised it hasn't actually won a matchup yet, as it led this one for a brief while)
Kensington wins, albeit with a lackluster, "meh" feeling from a number of voters. This may not bode well for her against Heather Kozar in the next round.
It's late and I don't want to stay up to assemble the next poll, so I'll leave with notes:
1. It's interesting to me how you guys become crankiest in the polls that follow the Celebrity Polls. It's kind of Pavlovian. Give you guys babes you know and love and you go gaga; take them away and the number of neither votes or "I'm not that into either, but ... " votes go up. I think it's funny, but I guess you guys like name recognition and don't like it when it's taken away.
2. It's notable to me that some of the ladies of mixed ancestry -- Kensington, Isis Nile, Kitana Baker back in the very first poll -- haven't done better. Given how much you all love Salma Hayek, I thought exotic heritage would do far better in the bracket on the whole. It's not bearing out.
3. Longer-form thought: We've had three web model vs. pornstar matchups in the Model Bracket and the Internet Model has won every single one. In fact, the only pornstar of the six we've had thus far who's advanced in that hodgepodge bracket is Renae Cruz, and that's only because she faced another pornstar in Milly D'Abbraccio. We still have four matchups to go in the pornstar-exclusive bracket, by the way.
When given the choice, I 'm starting to wonder if you guys get turned off seeing the girl actually engage in the act you want to engage her in.
For those of you who ITC/OTC with dancers, do you think those girls only do that stuff with you? Are you able to lie to yourself to get yourself to believe that? Isn't the best way to know if a girl puts out and does it well to see her putting out and doing it well? Shouldn't that make you think more highly of her? Aren't the web models who didn't get into porn probably more prude and probably not as good at the actual act? Or do you guys not think it through that far?
I'm taken aback that a lot of you guys who are so into seeing women naked in strip clubs and pursuing extras that you post on a forum about strip clubs are actually not all that into porn, which features naked women, uh, doing the stuff inclusive of what we may consider, in this work of fiction, extras. It's weird to me, but it's what the polls are bearing out.
The "why" here is a good question. Maybe you guys aren't as good at ignoring the male performers as I am and don't like that part. I mean, I get not wanting to see some disgusting customer boning a stripper back at PH in the day, but in porn, the guys usually aren't distracting and easily ignored, at least to me. It's just a stunt cock there to help you imagine what you'd be feeling and seeing if yours was there instead. Or maybe you guys like the tease better than the actual act. I don't know. But it's interesting to think about.
Alright, next poll goes up sometime tomorrow.

Everyone here is correct. They are a tad more lax in the VIP lapper area if the dancer and customer are known commodities. I've had a dancer tell me, right after a bouncer came in to observe, "Forget it, he knows me, you're fine." YMMV.
I find most of the ladies do not let much more go in the CRs and they're also crazy expensive.
That said, yes, hot ladies galore. 7-Up factory indeed. That's why I go.

@VH: She got 20 votes and torpedoed Pamela Anderson, which is saying something, because Pam's boobs have look like torpedos at times.
There was a lot of love for Richards in that thread. https://www.tuscl.net/discussion.php?id=68340
I encourage you to save your case for when we get to that thread, though. No need to keep bumping this one in front of our new, current vote.

I give you guys credit: This went better than I thought. I expected some trolling, and we got some, but it didn't turn into a disaster. Plus, my strategy of dangling a big-time distraction worked really well.
HAYEK: 27
McCARTHY: 4
̶S̶a̶l̶m̶a̶,̶ ̶s̶e̶n̶d̶ ̶n̶u̶d̶e̶s̶:̶ ̶4̶
̶C̶o̶n̶t̶a̶g̶e̶o̶u̶s̶ ̶d̶i̶s̶e̶a̶s̶e̶s̶:̶ ̶2̶

̶P̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶-̶o̶n̶-̶p̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶c̶r̶i̶m̶e̶:̶ ̶2̶
̶B̶o̶t̶h̶:̶ ̶2̶
̶A̶N̶N̶:̶ ̶1̶ (hate to tell you, but she was already eliminated: https://www.tuscl.net/discussion.php?id=68097)
Hayek takes it with a number of superlatives:
- Most voted-upon matchup (31 votes, eclipsing 28 for Denise Richards over Pamela Anderson)
- Most voted-for woman (27, far eclipsing 20 for Richards and Nikki Fritz)
- Second-highest vote share (87.1 percent, trailing Fritz's 90.9 by 3.8)
That's the good news for you Hayek fans. The bad news? She draws Richards in the next round.
That wraps up the first round in the Celebrity Bracket, though we still have 10 more matchups to go across the other three. The Celebrity matchups in the round of 32 will be as follows, listed by first competitor alphabetically:
Donna D'ERRICO vs. Marisa MILLER
Carmen ELECTRA vs. Kiana TOM
Salma HAYEK vs. Denise RICHARDS
Rebecca ROMIJN vs. Kate UPTON
Start thinking of who you want to pick in each, but save your votes. I'm only counting votes in the actual thread, and we'll have those threads after we finish up the first round in the other brackets.
