Have you ever just been at a random place and saw someone who you knew studied game?

They may have said something or just reacted in a certain way that you were sure no one that didn't study game would react?

I'm pretty sure I met this one guy in a bar who did Mystery Method, but I confronted him about it and he got really pale and started playing dumb. Must have scared him shitless, which wasn't my intention, I was going to ask him if all those corny gimmicks actually worked and/or are worth memorizing.

Yeah i know one guy. Our game styles are different and it shows through.

Different temperments differently affects game.

I accidentally AMOGed a guy and banged his target before I knew what game was.

I met some sorority girls I knew in a bar. They were being talking to by a nervous, nerdy looking guy. He looked like the type who are trying to dress cool, but can't quite pull it off (slicked back hair, wearing an unfashionable, ill-fitting black leather blazer, stock business casual shirt).

As I approach the girls, they greet me and one hugs me tight. Nerd guy says something to me I can't hear. I ask him to repeat himself -twice- because I couldn't make out what he said.

He said, "I'll pay you $100 to take these girls off my hands." He delivered the line at a rapid, nervous pace. I just laughed and ignored him, confused, as did the rest of the girls. I knew these girls extremely well and ended up banging one of them, and he seemed like someone they didn't know. He ended up quietly slinking away within the next 10 minutes.

I always remembered this because he seemed so weird, up until a year later when I read "The Game" and realized what he was trying to do.

It's so niche.

Maybe two guys in my life that I knew were complete unknowns from different countries but had game.

Ever find yourself competing against a guy for the same girl and all the moves you two are throwing down are subtle as fuck and discernable only to each other? That's game.

Yes. Quite a few times. Most of the time i only recognize them if they "outgame" me. Like this one time had a massive AMOG moment by some black guy. I thought i had these girls in the bag for sure but this dude went full logic on me and high energy on these chicks. Killed the interaction for me flat.

Also had a friend pull me aside once and ask
"Have you happened to study some... social methods?"
-What, you mean game?
"Yeah!"
-How did you know?
"I could see it in your stance"

Turned out he read some basic stuff and recognized some of the mannerisms i did while talking to a girl.

The only "PUAs" I have seen have all been shitty at game and really awkward people.

I personally think anyone that is still using the term to describe themselves is extremely behind the times and probably hasn't evolved their game.

Now.ove met multiple people from the forum and have a lotmofgame knowledgable friends.

I don't consider them pua.They just know the game. We all play a similar game with our own ideas thrown in.


Just like the roosh school of thought isn't a pua system..it's really an improvement system

I see a lot of guys who have worse game then me, and I'll also see guys who seem to have tighter game than me.

It's all gamut.

Never saw any players in person, but I once saw a reaction shot of Roosh from some club in Europe, on a computer, as a moving .gif

True story:

I was in a German city day gaming and number closed a girl in the city center (Day Bang has been a godsend over here).

As I'm walking away saving the girl's number in my phone 2 random dudes walk up behind me and say stuff like "Awesome dude!" I wasn't sure how to respond so I asked who they were. Turned out one guy was Dutch and the other Russian and both belonged to the local lair. I didn't even know the area had a lair. Joined that day.

I never joined a lair in the States so it's been interesting talking to the guys here.

I was seated at a dinner party next to a long-time friend, just having a good time and talking to the female attendees.

Afterwards, I sought his advice on the finer points of his ability to captivate the attention of the girl seated on his other side.

Him: What do women value more than anything else?
Me: You sound like you're about to tell me.
Him: Social value. You see, Generation21stCentury, there are three stages with women. Attraction, comfort...
Me: Bro, that's Mystery Method.
Him: * silent *
Me: * silent *

We've never talked about it since, and never needed to.

Yeah, it was my first experience with game actually. I hadn't heard of, never mind read, Neil Strauss' book, but one of the girls in my student halls had. Or she'd heard or read bits of it at least I guess. We went out as a group, and she was part of it. At a bar we were in, some guy approached her and a friend and spat some line.

She later told the group (attention whoring I suppose) how she was hit on by a using stuff from 'The Game'.

If I remember correctly it was some form of an assumption opener. "You two look like sisters" or some shit.

I was waiting at this apartment Complex, and as a Dude was gettng out of his car to go in, a Woman was coming out.

It appeared they had never met, despite living in the same building. It was a Sunday, so he started off asking questions about Football, which team she was rooting for. The actual convo was really nothing special, but what was interesting, he had a really deep voice that Boomed/Rumbled (I could hear him even though i was 20-30 ft away).

I also noticed as she was responding to him, her voice would keep getting more high pitched and child like as the conversation went on.

After about 2-3 minutes of convo, he asked her which floor she lived on, and got her number, and that was it. By the way they interacted, I'm assuming he ended up smashing that week, if not that same night.

I couldn't see the guy since he was out of my view, but from his voice/speech patterns I'm guessing he was mid to late 40s, and the Girl was early to mid 20s.

This has happened to me once, it was actually around 2 weeks ago.

I was day gaming in a california universtiy and I was waiting for my "girlfriend" to finish her final. I was relaxing under a tree ready to leave when an skinny asian guy runs after a girl and stops her on her tracks. It seemed so awkward yet it reminded me of those famous youtube pick up videos where guys go direct in the street.

I couldn't hear his opener but through the approach he demonstrated very awkward body language and semi long awkward pauses where he had to think about what he was going to say next. I wasn't surprised he got the number after he rambled for about 6-8 minutes because she was a 4 or 5 in my book.

once he finished and got the number I called him over. I was curious as to what gaming method he was using because it was so obvious that it was not natural. He told me he's been doing simple pickup, but i get the sense he just those guys that wants to spit lines and bed girls, where as in the forum at least most of us are in it for the self refinement in all areas of our life. He wasn't very talkative with me either and later his friend walked over and I found out he was recording the approach. I give him props for the approach but it just bugged me how direct he went. Then he made another approach this time with a girl that was sitting down, right from his opening line as i saw from a distance where his friend was recording... train wreck

He came shoulders slumped after he talked to her for 10 mins that she said she had a bf from the beggining.

That's my story

Most times I see guys trying routines, lines and stuff that they obviously read on PUA websites. The problem is they are beginners and are negatively standing out and failing hard at game. Their words aren't reflections of solid inner game.

True players are like stealth warriors. You see them as lone suited up dudes calmly standing and drinking some unusual drink, you go to take a piss and five minutes later on the way back they pass next to you walking with some hottie towards an exit. For long time I haven't been able to see their methods, but then I learned to recognize the type and observe. It takes them about ten to fifteen mins to pull a girl using nothing but impeccable style, nonchalance and an aura of mysteriously extensive experience for a guy of their age.

Post: #17

Quite a few times. Basically I assume that any single expat guy I meet in Asia, who is not a complete dork, is familiar with game and most of the concepts we talk about around here.

I spotted a seminar in the middle of Morrisons 2 in Budapest. It had "The Guru" yelling at his 4 students at one point.

I have. Guy dating my ex, met him when picking up/dropping off the kids. When they first started dating I was blown away, he had her completely under control, had great game, great frame control. She was trying to play 'let's you and him fight" so we made 'friends' and ignored her.

Fast forward a month later he turned totally beta, the worst I've seen in a long time. Weepy phone calls literally crying "why do you like to hurt me" when she changed plans with him due to a kids obligation. I dropped the kids one night and stayed for a drink at ex's invitation, not more than an hour. I overheard him whinning, begging her to ask me to leave "I don't want him here". Surprised me because I wouldn't have stayed if we hadn't gotten along the first time I was there. He got needier and needier with her, until she had enough and dropped him. He then doubled down on the needy, machine gunning weepy texts to her about how much he loves her and what does she need him to do so that they can get back together, saying he will change, blowing up her phone, etc.

After it ended and he basically was stalking her I looked him up, turns out he was a minor celebrity on one of the old style PUA boards. I read some of his posts, he seemed to know his stuff with the innitial pickup, but not much else. Someone on the boards made fun or him for his "1997 Ross Jeffries" game. Seems like he was stuck in the 'fake it' stage.

Just goes to show what happens if you just play PUA and learn techniques without the internalization and inner game stuff.

PUA from what I understand is often a beginner/initial stage for guys who get into game.

You will find guys labelling themselves as PUA's as rookies/novices in the game, and that on it's own might be the reason why most guys with game awareness will never pass that stage.

Have you ever seen another pua/redpill in action?

Everytime I look to the right. viewing myself in the dresser mirror, while blasting some slut from the rear.

I like your username. My grandfather boasts than we descended from Atahualpa. His offspring mixed with the Spanish and that's why we look the way we do. Maybe it's false but I like to think I have Incan royalty running through my veins.

On topic, it was the day before Mardi Gras (Lundy Gras?) and we were waiting for a taxi to pick us up where the street car stopped. I was still raw in PU but I witnessed some guy who looked a lot like Tyler Durden but shorter and buffer. He approached a chick from my uni and asked her what her name was. I will never forget the look in his eyes.

The Tyler-lookalike was traveling with two other dudes and they were flirting with the chick from my uni and her friend. I was sitting as close as possible to them (without looking out of place) to pick up tidbits of their convo. My friends traveling with me were mocking the guys. One of the dudes pulled away to smoke a cigarette and I approached him. We spoke for a bit and I brought up seduction:

Me- I don't mean to pry but do you guys study PUA?

Him- What? What's that?

Me- You know? Gunwitch, Mystery, RSD,

Him- I don't know what that is but all I know is I'm DOA (drunk on arrival).

The five of them found a taxi and left us. I saw the chick a few days later and she said she ditched them on Bourbon street. Although a chick I knew said she saw her with some "creepy guy" on campus. Did they fuck? I hope he put it in her ass because she was a cunt.

A few days later I found out there was a New Orleans lair and these guys were most likely apart of it. I wanted to join but I was "too busy." But I will never forget that guy's eyes. It was like looking into the eyes of a predator.

That shit inspired me. Whenever I feel my eyes focusing like his, upon chick, my night turns out great.

Thanks, man. I have about 2% Inca in me but I just think he was cool and I grew up in the same place he did.

The guys I've run across are like the opposite of yours. Not sure how to embed pics but click link for Boston lair:

The difference between PUA and what we're trying to do over here is like the difference between going on some fad diet and actually just changing the way you eat.
