I agree with the author of the original post. Lets take a look from a different angle (this is going on right now with my HB10)
Initially it was her original name. Everytime I was getting a text - I was excited like a puppy going for a walk. My mind instantly associated all the good HONEST feelings with this name therefore instantly making me weaker in the game.
I've changed her original name into "Player" So everytime I was getting a text - my mind instantly transformed into the game state and therefore answers were tight. Funny, they became so tight, so in order not to OVERDO, i have changed the name again into "AVERAGE PLAYER"
Might be helpfull for beginners. In minds of pro-PUAs - the game mind set is a preset.
