This was a question I thought about for a few minutes before whacking on my twitter account. I ended up getting a lot of responses which I’ll cover in this post plus the ones I can think of myself or have heard previously. Time/set/lay dependent: you become an advanced Daygamer after doing it consistently for … Continue reading What Makes Someone an Advanced Daygamer?
#66: Dead Ringer
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
16/10/19
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)
