FIRST DAYS OF HOSTEL/CLUB GAME
In San Diego I had immediately the impression that the city offered more opportunities to practice the game. I immediately built my
social circle at the hostel (which is extremely useful when you go out in a new city).
The first day I find two beautiful HBAustralia 8.5 and 8 in the Hostel. One night there were more than 20 people in the hostel commonroom including my 2 targets. Obviously I made friend with almost everyone, apart form the targets pretending I was not interested in them. I was immediately integrated in a group of British guys (all of them were either natural PUAs / players). I raised the energy level and everybody got to know me. Hower, I avoided drinking...
We first went to a piano bar downtown. I was opened by a mixed set of 4 (2 girls and 2 guys). I ran a couple of routines. I made everybody laugh. I did more sets always ignoring the targets. People asked me more than once why I wasn't drinking alcohol. 90% of the group was drunk.
HBGermany7.5 from another group gives me IOI (eye contact). I open her. She’s with a guy (brother). She's so drunk I just can't game her. I make friend with the brother and start kinoing her. Apparently she's not compliant or maybe it’s just the alcohol. I was a bit confusing for me… We bounce to a dancepub called Whysky Girl.
In the club I opened different sets to build more social proof. I kept ignoring my targets until I got IoIs from hbaustralia8, I slighlty negged her and I even got more IOIs. I kept sober while everybody got loaded with alcohol. HBGermany leaves. Closing time for the club was 1.30 (very early). All the people in the group were drunk and I found myself completely sober but obviously not with the same energy levels of the others. The 2 targets were dancing monkeys, the other 2 guys one from Australia and the other from UK were in a similar state. Despite all the shit tests fom the targets I passed I still couldn't be at the same level of energy of the other people. I decided to keep a low profile and to analyse the seduction process of the other 2 guys. The OZ quit. Another British guy takes over.
Now: what's interesting is that I noticed that British always go for the close, generally speaking. Obviously, they fuck up most of times but they apply a quantitative approach and so they still get to close quite often. Another interesting point is that it is difficult to game people that are drunk. Probably attraction must be built beforehand and when everybody is drunk (apart from the PUA) you just go for the close reaping the results of what you did before. I don't know...
In the morning, the British guys told me that they didn't get to close and they had the boyfriend objection.
For me it was a fruitful night with lots of interesting points to analyse:
1. I was inspired by the British guys who always go for the close (often skipping Confort) although they deeply rely on alcohol. Closing is one of my sticking point so I basically learned that I have to be out of the confort zone as much as possible and go for the kiss close anyway. I won’t drink though. I might consider looking drunk though...
2- I should take advantage of the fact that being on a road trip gives you less social pression because you're sure you're not going to see those people again. And it's extremely good for practice and to test routines etc...
Still I have problems to calibrate with drunk targets. I guess I just have to
kino and close… What do you guys think?
SARGING WITH LOCAL PUAs
in the following few days I had the chance to sarge with 2 local PUAs I met thanks to the forum, Sweetsauce and Fluent. Both of them are in their early 20s but they are extremely focused and hard core MM disciples. I believe that if they continue this way they'll become PUA gurus in a couple of years. Sweetsauce is still a bit more mechanical in his storytelling and routine stacking but he's very dedicated and works hard. He’s not afraid of opening sets (even 9s and 10s) which you often get to see in San Diego. Fluent is very good at story telling and body language skills. He opens all sorts of sets, especially non mixed, locks in and gets to numberclose in 10-15 minutes. I really enjoyed sarging with them. We did sandgame in Pacific Beach and mall game for 2 days. We opened as many sets as possible. When you sarge with such good wings you get feedback immediately from them, you learn a lot from your mistakes and mostly important you can run a lot of sets testing the same routines and improving them on the spot with the following sets. In PB Sweetsauce facebookclosed a 10 in PB. The best sets were run in the Fashion Valley mall though. HB9.5+HB8.5 buying a wig. Fluent and me we get into the set, both completely out of the confort zone but looking very confident. The game was on. We start talking to the second clerk saying we need a good quality wig. We didn’t say why though. Anyway, I neg the target (she gets a bit it offended) and then I try to make friend with the clerk. I make her laugh. Fluent talks to my target recalibrating a little bit and get her attention. I handle the clerks with extremely high energy levels. The set only lasted a few minutes but it was really good for me, especially considering the fact that in my AFC days I would have never talked to a 9.5 in the street. And negging her made me feel even more powerful...
Another good set was in a make-up shop. Me and Fluent we went in together while Sweetsauce was gaming another set. We enter, again completely out of the comfort zone. I say that we need to have our nails painted black . There were only HB7.5 and up in the shop. We were the only men apart from one male clerk. Totally out of our comfort zone. I start gaming HB8. Fluent leaves becasue he feels too unconfortable so I eject too... It was still good practice for
inner game…
Another great set was the last one of day 2 when we were all very tired but we decided to go for another set. Just to push it to the limit… A complicated one: 4 , seated. We run my “Borat opener” (I might tell you later, it always opens perfectly here in California), Fluent goes for his DHV story after we make them laugh. Then we decide to handle each girl separately telling each one a different story. It really worked well! Then we throw a FTC saying we have to leave: Fluent shakes hand with all the four girls. It looked weird from the outside because it was the only one but it gave me an idea… I tell the leader of the group:
ME He always shakes hand after talking to girls. His mother is a professional palm reader and he's actually convinced that he can learn a lot just by touching a specific area of the hand.
HB7.5 OMG! Tell me more please…
And she reopens us giving strong IOIs.
We decided to keep this “palm reading” indirect reopener after a FTC for the next sets. It's good stuff because it also leads to
kino and confort building. On our way to the car we even ran 2-set (moving targets) which opened perfectly and remained hooked for 8-10 minutes….
I love sarging with other PUA like Sweetsauce and Fluent. It’s good team work and you really learn a lot. We also have the chance to understand what’s really behind the game. You get to talk about how practicing the game can really improve your life and even your career. Fluent told me that I should rename myself “philosopher” lol. In the last few days I also sarged with AFCs and a couple of pivots but it is really heavy and sometime counterproductive for a PUA... Sarging by myself is still very difficult for me. I might still need some
inner game for this...
What’s interesting is that, both days I got a solid number (HB7s). As I said in another post, I numberclose just to practice my closing skills and try to get rid of this sticking point of mine. But I made sure comfort was built and called them both after a few minutes… Good stuff…
In a few days I’ll be sarging in LA. Mostly beaches with a wing of mine coming from London, England… He’s a newbie but I ì’m sure we can work well together on the LA beaches…
Next post will be about kissclosing HB7.5 from Holland in San Diego, using only the Mystery Method (including the Mystery Kiss close). My game, at this stage, is becoming a true “exercise in style” in the sense that at times I have the impression that everything is fake. But I came to the conclusion that after all life and social interaction are “fake” anyway, at least to a certain extent, and we are all part of a big matrix in which there are specific rules that are accepted by default. We, as PUAs, we just reached a higher level of awareness… We are enlightened.
Ciao from San Diego
