Calibrated seduction community teachings applied to the campus setting.

With all of the mainstream media focused on the seduction community, it was only a matter of time before it was applied to schools. However, the first attempts at these failed miserably, due to some structural differences between school and the real world.

Whereas many men find meeting friends and girlfriend much harder outside of school in our individualistic society, the school setting usually has a lot of single, young girls present who are not burdened by the realities of life yet.

College game specifically deals with how social circle works within schools. Depending on the size of your school, social maps merge and it is not always necessary to do a completely cold approach. Working the room, becoming a hub point for a resource within the school, throwing cool parties at the right locations are all key to good college game.

In many cases, gaming up freshmen girls and be-friending them ensures a strong College game also explores virgins and how to plan out your 4 years and the progression a player can make during his time there. Fraternities, and dealing with naturally sporty and alpha guys are also analyzed in college game.

Campus Game / College Game is a post from PUA Lingo, a glossary of PUA and Pick Up Artist terminology.

Quick Definition: The act of taking command of a situation, and leading men (and women) of a group of people into specific actions or scenarios.

Leading is very important in pickup, and it applies to other areas of life as well. The traits of a good leader can inspire groups and others to take up a cause in your name, or in the name of a greater good. In seduction, despite mainstream media changes over the last decade, women still want men to lead.

In set, knowing the phases of attraction (i.e. M3 Model) can be very attractive. Just knowing what to do, how to isolate, lead a group of girls into a different section, knowing how to get her home without showing her off as a slut to her friends are all part of the leading process in seduction. Effective leading throughout the interaction is necessary to a full close. For women, it is very attractive to meet this type of man who knows what he is doing.

Leading does not mean using extreme force or pushiness. Often times, the most effective leaders use influence, or a slight force in the right position. For example, grabbing a girl’s arm and turning her by lightly putting 3 fingers on her arm and turning her gently but deliberately. The same can be said about dancers – the most effective male dancers can lead the women without making them feel forced to move. Rather, they are guided to move in the direction of the male leader and in doing so, can show off their displays of femininity through their dance moves.

Leading is one of the quintessential skills in the art of seduction.

Quick Definition:

The way in which an artist manages people’s behavior in relation to what is acceptable to him and what is not, and how to deal with it effectively.

A term developed by Mr. M, boundary function is his way of exerting social pressure when it is right to do so and when to be accepting of others. An example he uses is in his response to a bad reaction from a girl, or if a girl makes a racist comment against an Asian guy. Mr M: “Excuse me, I don’t know where you’re from, but where I am from people have much more manners than those you just exhibited” -he explains that this is a way of putting social pressure on the other person by stating your boundaries.

To wings or others guys that may be acting un-cool, one could say, “excuse me, but that was not okay with me, I do not consider that a friendly conversational piece”. This puts a certain level of pressure on the guy and forces him to respond, thereby revealing his real value relative to you. In some instances, these tactics can lead to fights, so be sure to know when to use it. In any case, an awareness of your own boundaries is a very good thing, and it is up to the artist to determine when to exert his dominance over what his is comfortable with in a social situation.

Usage:

A man who is successful usually has a strong boundary function about what he is willing to put up with and what he is not.

Quick Definition: AKA Field Intuition. According to the dictionary, it is the act or faculty of knowing or sensing without the use of rational processes, or the knowledge gained by the use of this faculty; a perceptive insight.

Some people explain intuition as a process that comes from experience. Others seem to have intuition in certain subjects, starting from a very young age. In pickup, the artist starts developing a sense of intuition the more time he spends in field. Club intuition can be developed through experience in gaming sets within club environments. Some of it is unconscious.

Examples include knowing which sets are more approachable, based on the subtle looks the girls give each other or the volume and tonality of their conversation. Knowing which guys and girls are couples, and which ones are not. Knowing where the vibe or energy is within a club. Over time, instructors can break down little details in other sets and in the students and pinpoint specific action steps on how to improve one’s game.

Usage:

Quick Definition: AKA Calm Confidence. The surface reflection of a person who has a calmness and confidence in the way his moves through life.

Quiet Confidence comes from having a strong inner game and meaning in life. A sense of purpose, and a sense of maturity and calm. Some people seem to have it, and others do not. Age is generally not a factor in quiet confidence, although it helps in the level of maturity an individual is likely to possess.

Some of the practical applications of a “quiet confidence” from outer game would be:

• To move at a slower pace: calm and collected. Do not overly move or twitch hands or face.
• Talking deliberately and with authority, without shouting.
• Moving the gaze of the eyes slowly and carefully
• Avoid speech impediments such as “um, ah, oh, I think” too often.
• Outcome independence:  you do not think too much about the situation and what you can get from it. You can in the moment, enjoying the interaction for what it is.
• The ghost: being cool under pressure. Never apologizing or defending a particular position when criticized or faced with a hard question.
• Being funny or having personal amusement jokes without pleasing other people: if they laugh great, but you are mostly pleasing yourself and in being “un-stiffled” yourself, others will become so as well.
• To leave things better than when you first arrived; to leave the woman better than when you found her.

George Clooney is a perfect example of a man with quiet confidence:

Usage:

David has a quiet confidence about him all the time.

Quick Definition: Refers to a persons biggest fears and challenges in obtaining his dreams and goals in life, which may or may not be real but is psychologically a strong barrier towards moving forward in life.

Inner Demons plague us all as human beings. They are the barriers that make it hard for us to enjoy life, or to achieve or pickup goals. For Jeffy it was dealing with his past family life, for AFC Adam, it was about growing up poor and not reacting when people taunted him with threats of having money. For some Asian guys, it is dealing with the media stereotype of the Asian male in the United States. Other different people, it is can be anything, from looks to their relationships to wondering if they are truly loved.

Awareness of inner demons is particularly important in understand the stories that we tell ourselves. Often times, these demons are the origins of our limiting beliefs about the world at large. Because inner demons are so personal often times the resolution of them resides with the individual. Instructors can guide guys through it, but they have to drink the water themselves. The emergence of PUA forums online have been particularly helpful, as guys anonymously or through an online moniker lay out their deepest fears, and their journey to combat them.

Psychologists (Like Freud) argue that these inner demons never really go away, and that we must keep them in check for they are our “darker self”, and represents who we are as human beings. Nonetheless, a strong awareness and desire to understand and harmonize these demons must be met in order for someone to become a master in any art.

Hi guys,
I came across Ryker when he was putting together Asian Dating Superstars. He interviewed Asian PUAs about getting good with game and getting past a lot of the fallacies and pitfalls Asian guys come across when learning game. I declined the interview at the time because:

1) I value my anonymity

2) I didn’t think I was at the master level where I can impart very useful advice to others, although I do consider myself an intermediate PUA.

In reviewing “Asian Dating Superstars” I was impressed with the clarity that guys like Xavier (TDD), Jeremy Soul (Love Systems), RedPoleQ, DJ Fuji and many other guys. Asian or not, they had similar mindsets and distinct differences to their approach in game. I figured I would do a blog post about this since I personally know many Asian guys who have either left the game or are struggling to get what they want out of game (and life).

Exclusively on PUA Lingo, we are giving you the FULL interview with Jeremy Soul of Love Systems. This interview covers:

• What it is like for a Southeastern guy from Sri Lanka and how to think about learning pickup in a larger context.
• How Asian cultures may differ with western culture about how to approach girls
• Day game openers and how it is different (not not) for an Asian guy in London and other parts of Europe
• Dealing with Asian stereotypes such as being short, more feminine, or even having a smaller penis
• And much more!

Quick Definition: The specific niche branch of game that deals with how a celebrity can use game to get the girl he wants.

In the showbiz circles, celebrities are generally known to have a lot of social leverage and can therefore date many people in the gene pool. Girls, groupies and even women of high value will stalk them around, following celebrities and hoping that they get a chance to tell a good story from the night.

However, there are instances where the celebrity cannot always gets the girl that he wants. A celebrity may come across as way too high value. Instead of DHVs like most PUAs do explicitly or implicitly, the value is there. A celebrity instead has to work on commonality and building propinquity or rapport.

According to Neil Strauss, Dave Navarro (who once dated Carmen Electra) says that girls get so nervous around him, that sometimes he cannot close and they end up thinking that he is too good for them. In these cases the star has to tone down his public image and instead focus on being real and relating to the girl on an everyday, personal level.

Quick Definition:
In PU, the idea that once a PUA lays or opens the hottest girl, he can go down the list onto less attractive girls and have them be receptive to his advances.

In the idea of social trees developed by Braddock of Love Systems, there is a domino effect in slutty social trees. That is, slutty girl social circles usually are receptive to sleep with the same guy, once that guy has already slept with the hottest girl in the group. However, if he sleeps with one of the uglier girls, he has already cemented his perceived value in the group, and moving onto the hotter girls will become difficult.

In classy girl or good girl social circles, once you make a decision to pick an apple, you usually cannot sleep with the other girls. As such, go for the hottest one over time in a classy social circle. In more slutty social trees, go for queen bee, which will create a domino effect with the rest of the girls in the group.

In a bar a club, if you are seen having a good interaction with the hottest girl in the club, other girls will be come warmer and more receptive to your approaches given the perceived value you have created. Again, the domino effect of social proof takes place and other sets become easier to open.
