MySpace Opener Theory Discussion

[BreakEvenPlayer]

It's just the tone of your posts man. You're just too damn cool for school.

I completely agree that "Inside?" isn't the end-all-be-all...

[diebitter]

I think you hit the nail on the head there, oh big furry one.

Anything that gets her responding without being insulting is fine. Short ambiguous phrases are fine, I think, (like 'inside?') as are ambiguously-phrased questions relating to their profile/pictures (ambiguous in the sense it's not clear whether you approve or disapprove of the thing - she'll get curious and ask).

perhaps some modification to that long-ass speech I posted which has some reference about her profile would be the good tack too?

eg

I've been with many races of chicks....
I've tasted tang in all 4 corners of the earth, and on every one of the seven seas...
I have contradicted myself and still been understood..
I have <insert reference here>,
But I wasted my time, cos I never myspaced you until now...


eg if she likes Eminiem, try
'I have stomped on Eminem disks, and then regretted it'

if she likes Brad Pitt movies
'I have watched Brad Pit get wasted and punched'

and so on.

Not that I'm supporting the inside? method or anything, but if the girls who received these messages knew what the purpose of the message was, they would probably say it's pretty weak too. It works because they have no idea what it means. I think it's already proven to be effective. Whether or not it's optimal is a different story.

Sorry. My scanner is broke and a new one should've been here already. I could only find 3 pics of myself already up on the web somewhere. I still haven't really been sending out messages. I'm just responding to the ones I get. My Myspace plan goes into effect when I move in January...BTW, I need a lease for the Spring in Champaign, IL.

Do you guys put any reference to your p***r skills in your profile? Just listing it as an interest doesn't mean anything, as probably half the guys in college play it from time to time. If you are actually a good player and rake in some pretty good cash from it, do you make that known? Most people I talk to are very intrigued to learn more about it.

[MyTurn2Raise]

some reference it, some don't
I choose not to so much since I'm a low-limit donk, and it's been my experience in B&M pickups that girls do not dig 'gamblers'

Could you possibly be any less scientific in your methodology?

what if the table is covered with an obscene amount of money?

Then you attract gold diggers and whoooooooooers.

I thought that was the idea behind it all....
