It was at the end of a long, hard week of work that I met Joanna, one September evening. On the surface she seemed a bit quirky, but underneath that thin veneer of normalcy lay a simmering cauldron of crazy (T). Given that I was feeling sleepy I’d promised myself that I’d go for idates … Continue reading #66: Dead Ringer

Today my boss told me he hadn’t put me on the shortlist for promotion this year, even though I’d been kind-of going for it. I say ‘kind-of’ because I’d been doing more than I normally would but nowhere near the kind of pointless facetimery that staying until everyone else had gone engenders. I’d never been … Continue reading 16/10/19
#65: Pole Position
I’ve got a backlog of lay reports to get through, and it all begins with this non-Daygame lay which happened over a month ago. I had been winging all day with Mr White and had rattled off a hefty 14 sets. Of those 14 two came on dates and both ended in failed bouncebacks; I’d … Continue reading #65: Pole Position
Warsaw Review
I got back from Warsaw yesterday with some stories to tell. Here’s my review of the city: Statistics Ahh statistics, it’s always good to start here, mostly because it’s the kind of juicy information everyone is really interested in; there’s nothing more engaging to a Daygamer than comparing their ratios to see who is the … Continue reading Warsaw Review
How to Keep Daygame Statistics
In this post we’re going to have a look at an effective way to keep Daygame statistics and when and how to step away from them. When I started Daygame I immediately started recording my stats. I’d come home from my session, open my laptop and add the sets to my spreadsheet. In fact, since … Continue reading How to Keep Daygame Statistics
Everything Else
I was winging with Senor Blanco yesterday and we were discussing the direction of our blogs and our aims for the current and following year. I won’t step on his toes and go over what he was thinking about - which would in some way commit him to a plan he may not yet want … Continue reading Everything Else
Fueled by Randomness
Randomness is quite often a good thing; let’s look at why in this Taleb-inspired post. One of the questions many Daygamers asks themselves is ‘how many sets should I do?’ ‘How many sets is enough?’ ‘How many sets constitutes a hard day’s work?’ In other words (with regards to the last one): ‘how many sets … Continue reading Fueled by Randomness
Narcissism, Kafka and Game
*Spoilers below* I recently finished the Wordsworth Classics Essential Kafka; my verdict: Kafka was a massive narcissist. As I read through the unfinished novels and short stories I pieced together evidence to support that claim: Kafka’s relationship with his perfectionist father; the presence of an oppressive authority (the narcissist’s super-ego); the fact that his main … Continue reading Narcissism, Kafka and Game
#64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts (Analysis)
The Time of Day: it turns out the pussy paradise isn’t a place, it’s a time… man. Jokes aside it’s worth thinking about. I think 11am to 1pm has a higher ROI for me than, say, 2pm to 4pm. Someone more extroverted than me would say that 11pm to 1am has a higher ROI because … Continue reading #64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts (Analysis)
#64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts
I’ve figured recently that weekend afternoons are actually a poor time to Daygame. Sacrilege, I know. My reasoning is that if you head out between 11am and midday then you’ll catch more solo girls as they are on their way to meet friends rather than heading out in the afternoon when they are already in … Continue reading #64: Long Live the Car Crash Hearts
