Hello everyone! I'm a 22 year old college student and have recently become hooked on pickup (sounds like a new drug, I know). I read The Game when I stumbled across it two weeks ago at the local library.
Since then I've brought a close friend into it to sarge with me as well as watched one of the Mystery Method DVD files, began reading Juggler's "How to be a Pickup Artist", Ian Rowlands "Full Facts Book of Cold Reading," and been trolling around this forum for ideas/help (I know, I should have become an active member earlier!).
On top of this I've opened two groups cold; I number closed one (HB7), and bailed on the second one due mainly to choking after a new opinion opener I tried to play on the fly. Plus, I just kiss closed an HB7.5 I hadn't seen for over 2 years tonight, and have another HB7.5 bugging a friend of mine for my number. God, it's a lot nicer to be the one being chased down than to be the one chasing!
Anyways, I hope to contribute field reports, help to others, and new material/theories in the future. Thanks to all the "elders" and more experienced posters here for all the help!
