Frag Dolls, more like Good Looks.
And that's the topic of today, which comes a year too late. Sorry about that. Fag Dolls tend to be old news but, well, who cares. I was googling around, trying to find the article where one of the dolls say that Drag Dolls are the pioneers of girl gaming or something like that. Walking proudly in the frontline, showing the way to the rest of the geek girls.
That was probably the happiest day of my life, because I had never laughed so hard.
I mean seriously. Have you seen the pictures of those girls? I have seen uglier porn stars. In matter of fact, this page explains my view of Frog Dolls pretty well. Except I would do them all, the two pale girls in the front exluded. Im just not into pale girls. Although im a pale guy.
I don't know how they plan to be the pioneers of girl gaming. What is there to prove? That you can be a hot geek girl? That playing FPS doesn't make you ugly? Seriously.
Anyway, I cut the chase and direct you to this page instead. It's a year old editorial entry of a mother of two who is also a girl gamer and tried to join the Drug Dolls. When you have read it, scroll down to the end of the page, and go to the forums. You will see a Brag Doll, Valkyrie, trying to explain that all girl gamers she has seen are hot (which is because a) rest of the gamer girls which ain't so hot are too afraid to post their pics, or b) the pictures ain't really theirs) and that Ubi Soft hired them because of their gaming skill only.
Nobody believes that. Not even me.
At this point, I was going to explain how the girls are just being used as baits for geek boys to buy Ubisofts' games so they'd try and impress the girls with their gaming skills. And how the Frag Dulls were hired mainly because of their looks; the gaming skills are nothing but sugar coating.
But then, well... I found this. I'll quote the page:

Female gamers 18 and older in the United States interested in participating
in the open call at PAX should bring their video game resume and a few
photos (these can be color photo copies) and are invited to take
advantage of an onsite videotaped "audition" to help their selection chances.
The video tape segment, which is not mandatory for consideration, will consist
of a one-minute taped response to the question: "Why should you be a member of
the Frag Dolls?"
Apparently, pictures of yourself prove your gaming skills. Im surprised they didn't ask for nude pics, just to prove that you're a woman.
I rest my case. Ubisoft just made this too easy for me.

Duh, of course it's just a marketing trick. And since these girls spend a lot of time in public, it's bad PR if they look like bears. Hence the photos.

Looks aren't enough if these girls are supposed to play against nerds. But they do need to look good.
Not a bad job though, is it? I also play games and look good, but I don't get paid.

You're just wrong gender.
Or maybe you should form your own team, Frag Guys. I think that kind of group would bring more girls to the art of gaming.
I can be your manager. And fatboy would be one of those guys with a long, but useless job title, like District Region Public Relations Associate Manager, who does nothing but play Windows Solitaire in some corner.
Then you'll be FAMOUS! I mean, you have all the qualities for a celebrity; good looks (or so you say), on/off girlfriend, you're into sports, like heavy drinking and you have some very odd hobbies, like sending some disgusting video about men slicing and skinning their dicks to your friends.
Magazines will go crazy about you! And all I have to do is to collect the profit while you get all the chicks and shit. Oh, humble me.

Yeah, I'll be the pioneer of male gaming.
