It’s weird to me how much game has taken a step back in recent years.
If you would have asked me in 2001, where game would be in 16 years, I would have told you that everything that had been figured out would be built upon. Lots of data and well understood practical techniques for the following
- On the spot 3 some game (you walk into a spot, see a 2 set, and then stay with them the whole night and bang both at the same time)
- Hired gun game (waitresses, shot girls, strippers)
- Ten game (objective 10’s – i.e. dominant society’s highest order of chick)
- Harem game
- Male positive open ltr’s
Instead, most of what was figured out back in the day was
- Trivialized – as a bunch of people tried to cash in
- Lost – as people shifted from message boards/irc/instant messenger to personal blogs, Facebook/Twitter and Dating sites.
Everything went from centralized to decentralized.
So now guys are rediscovering that dressing GQ and lifestyle game sets them up to look like “alpha providers” not “choosy alphas”. They fight from a deficit from the beginning.
Let me be clear, cash, nice clothes, nice car, nice crib, physically fit – those all make sex easier – but for a lot of different reasons. With game, sex is important – but CHOICE is more important. There are tons of guys out there who have all the “right stuff”. And they get laid plenty – but as we’ve seen with our Celebrity Chronicles – “the right stuff” is not a replacement for game.
On the socially approved scale, having “the right stuff” kills for lower end girls (6’s and below – who may have nice face or nice bodies, but not both). But as we’ve seen with Tag the Sponsor, there’s always guys with MORE, and chicks are surrounded by offers. Not all of them “jump” on a Sheikh shaking 40K her way for a weekend in Dubai. At the local level, you don’t think the chick at the hottest club in Kansas City doesn’t have access to the Kansas City Chiefs?
She is constantly surrounded by that stuff, and it doesn’t impress her.
When you’re out at the spot though, when you meet these “higher end” girls, take them off the pedestal, – they just end up being the same ball of insecurities as a chick that’s not so much in the public eye. It’s cliche only because it’s true.
With this overall setback in game technology, I wonder
- How long it will take this generation to want to bait shit tests so that they can ramp up attraction?
- In days when clubs are dying, will merge sets ever become important?
To be fair, a lot of PUA’s were selling sex to women when Pimps and Player’s sold dreams instead. I’m not sure what these modern alphas are really trying to actively sell. It’s all passive sell.
I’m so great, a chick would be ludicrous not to get with me.
Book Update – 54% through the rough draft. Looking @ 150 pages so far. (At current rate, 277 pages of rough draft).

The mainstream-ization via Strauss’s book, the VH1 show, and Mystery’s book flooded the community with gullible chumps who don’t want to hear that they have to work for every ounce of success they’re gonna get, along with eager snake oil salesmen who claim to have their magic pill (they call it “the red pill”).
Manosphere bloggers, in the rare instance they touch on their “game”, do so vaguely. If they were running hard line Mystery Method, they’d elaborate on technique and offer up FR’s. But they’re transparently vague, a la “Just lift weights and start a side hustle, and you’ll do fine.” And they all have an ebook or three for sale. They’re often entertaining, but these guys are disciples of Tim Ferriss, not Mystery. There’s socializing, then there’s Game.
Keep going brother. Thank you.
