Logistics seem to be the hard part, you really have to narrow down to a local area (2-3 miles) in a big city like London.

Funny part, swiped past my girlfriends little sister. Potentially opening myself up to a world of hurt here.

Yeah in London set it to 5miles otherwise you're getting outside London chicks and you won't get anywhere at all.
I nearly got into the same situation as you lmao

I really hope that Tinder starts using some kind of matching algorithm.

In NYC there are so many girls that the odds of a girl you like seeing your pic is slim.

I'm sick of swiping through an abyss of boring looking people.

They should be showing my profile to girls I've liked and visa versa.

Soup, they absolutely use a matching algorithm. I went somewhere new this weekend and swiped a bunch of chicks upon arrival with no matches. Obviously because my picture couldn't have been shown to chicks if the app didn't know where I was. Over the course of 24 hours I got a lot of notifications of new matches as they swiped me. Then when I swiped a day or so later, boom, 7 of the first 10 were instant matches with it drying up after. The girls who I hadn't seen before but had swiped me were the first to come up. Makes sense.

May need to try out different pics it sounds like if your not matching

That was my exact experience with tinder this past weekend as well. They all seemed like legit girls(I've had a lot of spam girls on tinder) too. Was on a tight schedule so I didn't meet up with any though.

I was on Tinder and not getting anywhere, so I changed my age thru my facebook account so now it says I'm 28 and I'm getting hits. I've never had trouble pulling younger girls in person because I dont look 36 but having it online is like a scarlet letter

Tinder is a little frustrating as it gives you almost zero control. It's too much "sit back and wait" style of dating. Has anyone in the London area THIS MONTH been getting matches? As the only successful Londoners who have had matches were earlier in the year. Has it dried up in this area?

Yeah, I got bored easily from it. I guess it works for some really well, I know people who has had success, but its not for me I don't think.

No I meant it literally never worked due to glitches

I get no hits on tinder.

More of an informative post than anything regarding game: Tinder has come out with two releases in the past 10 days or so (for Android, at least.) One of their fixes was miscellaneous improvements, but the other one's top item was "Fixed a bug where dates were being incorrectly referenced" (paraphrased.)

In layman's terms: they had a bug on their server (or their client) that was preventing the correct date you last looked to populate, which meant you got a crap-ton of blank search results. This is fixed, so now you should be seeing results (more often, if there are any valid search results.)

That's why I don't update my apps. They start getting too big and laggy.

When I first got on it, the vast majority of girls I saw were hot sorority-type middle-upper class white girls and receptive to being gamed. Now the demographics have changed to reflect the underlying reality of my location: there are more black, Asian, and Hispanic chicks on it, more fat girls, the hotties are a slimmer percentage, and the response/hook rates to my canned opener have gone way down. In short, it has become just another online attention tool.

On the fake FB profile problem, Tinder screens out people with fewer than 50 friends. Add 50 randoms and you'll get matches. I did this. It works.

The other day I expanded my age range to include girls above 27 for the first time. JESUS CHRIST THERE ARE A TON OF THIRSTY WALL-ADJACENT BUT STILL HOT girls on here. My match feed is blowing up with smiling, pleasant 28-31 year olds. Will bang and report back.

Ill give a rep point if someone can make a FB profile with ar least 50 friends. Has to be a legit member.

Haha.
Don't get that started. Guys will start using them in some kinda lame ass prison-style barter system.

Why not just make / use your own anyway?

Yeah, you can totally create / sign up to Facebook using your phone. (If it's good enough to view and use RVF, then it'll do)

Obvious I know, but:

After getting a match, if you're really interested in the girl, I suggest adding her on facebook after a few back and forths in the chat. Not only it allows you to see other photos of her (there are plenty of SIFs on Tinder), but it also takes the interaction a bit deeper, separating yourself from the horny guys that are messaging her on the chat app. Then ask her out after a few back and forths on Facebook chat.
