Hi Guys,

I'm kind of asking for a little help here.
I study linguistics and one of my main interests is Conversation analysis(CA), which is the study of human interaction in conversation - both verbal and nonverbal.

It is a subject, in which you do not speculate... all theory is based on real data...

The data I've seen until now has been from grocery stores, doctor's offices, job-training etc. - CA then is about seeing a pattern in the way people react in the setting, when a specific event occur/utterance is made.

My question to you guys is then:
Do you have or know where to find pick-ups, which has been taped. They have to be 100% naturally occuring - uncut! It does not have to be hidden camera...

I hope you are able to help - it would be kick ass to apply science to The Game

- AAL

Check out 'Keys to the VIP'

Its a reality-television, comedy game show that airs on the Comedy Network. The game involves two self-proclaimed players competing against each other to pick up women in a real bar. The two contestants go against each other in rounds to complete different objectives all related to seducing women. Hidden cameras record all the action that occurs, with four "expert" pick up artists judging to decide which of the two contestants did better picking up women during a round. The winner is the contestant that wins at least two out of the three rounds, and goes on to win a party in a private VIP room with a select group of friends.

Quite a good premise for a show, very interesting and usually involves one contestant being a total douche and the other having what we would call natural game but every episode is different. You can get a lot of good ideas but its great because when watching it if your a beginner you can see what to do and what not to do, basically a test of whos smooth and who isnt.

I cant post you a link to one of the best episodes because i need 5 posts and dont want to post useless stuff just to get my post count up. When i do ill post a topic in the videos section.
