Recently I put out my standard tweet asking for post ideas and Roderick was kind enough to respond. In fact, he’s going to get three posts for his efforts. The first one, today, is the opener I’m currently using, which I’ve pieced together over the years from numerous sources (check my Recommend Reading), and I’m … Continue reading My Current Opener

The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Daygamers
I just finished reading the core of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. In terms of whether I’d recommend reading it or not, I’d give it a five or a six out of ten. The author just rubbed me up the wrong way and I’d much rather have read a condensed … Continue reading The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Daygamers
The Wedge and the Homeless Man Principle
Today’s post is another shining example of my sick drawing skills and links back to a couple of recent posts: “Does Game Work?” and Midwest’s “Indoor Daygame Guide Review.” Have a read of those before continuing here. And here it is: my Mona Lisa. Here’s what’s going on in the drawing: the line represents the … Continue reading The Wedge and the Homeless Man Principle
70 lbs and Out
Okay, so really it was 69 lbs, but that’s a funny number anyway. Today I’m going to go through some graphs which show off my journey as I near its end. At most I’ve got three more weeks of dieting to get to 12% bodyfat at which point I’ll switch into gaintaining (eating in a … Continue reading 70 lbs and Out
Is Daygame Efficient?
I recently got this comment on one of my posts: I thought it might be a good idea for a post, and then I saw this tweet: And so I took it as a sign from the universe to write that post. That and I am always open to new content ideas. My response to … Continue reading Is Daygame Efficient?
How to Approach More Often While Solo
I recently had a Skype call where the guy wanted to ask about how to improve his solo Daygame and to approach more. He was saying that he was fine while out with a wing, but that while solo, things didn’t click, and that he would often go home after doing one or two awkward … Continue reading How to Approach More Often While Solo
Social vs Sexual Hook Point
A while ago I put out my regular tweet asking for post ideas, and Mr Tabernack (no idea where that name comes from) responded. Let's start with how I define social hook points. To me that means the girl is willing to give you some time, but it says nothing for her interest (the conversations … Continue reading Social vs Sexual Hook Point
Creating A Habit Of Charisma (Part 2)
About a month ago I wrote a post about creating a habit to improve charisma because it seems to be an underappreciated and under-worked trait in the Game community. I promised to read a chapter of Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People each day for 30 days - in fact, it’s perfectly … Continue reading Creating A Habit Of Charisma (Part 2)
Inner Game Round-Up
Recently I’ve been adding to an Inner Game category on this website - you can find all of the posts here - and today I want to highlight some specific ones and a central idea. It’s not all of what Inner Game entails, there’s certainly more to it than that, and I don’t know the … Continue reading Inner Game Round-Up
Do We Enjoy Failure?
I recently asked Lee Cho and Mr White the same question: “If you had to choose between these two options, which would you pick? Either, you get one lay in 100 approaches, but 99 of those approaches are blowouts, and then you get a SDL, or, you get one lay in 100 approaches but with … Continue reading Do We Enjoy Failure?
