Some seriously geeky number crunching has produced some seriously interesting revelations about my dating life this year.
There’s not time or space to reveal it all here (we’re doing a 2-day seminar using it in early 2012) but I thought I’d give you some highlights:
In 2011 I’ve been on 103 dates (not including instant-dates). I’ve slept with 41 girls, giving me a date-lay conversion of 40%. I’ve collected 482 contact details, giving me a #close-lay conversion of around 9%. That’s a healthy number for cold approaching.
What’s interesting is that they’re roughly the same stats for me as last year. But the nice difference is that this year’s girls were hotter and looked “harder” to close…an air hostess, a model, a stripper, a posh Chelsea girl. What this proves is that we should be opening the hottest girls possible, as the probability of dating/closing them is the same as if you #close a lower quality of girls. You just need to #close the same volume.
Many guys email me about my stopping – #close conversion. That’s less fixed, as it’s down to vibe. Some days I can close 4 girls in a row, sometimes it’s none out of 4. Energy, sleep, diet, mindset and random variables related to the girl all come into play. It’s the same with the #close – reply to text conversion, that’s mostly based on how good the set went, which in turn depends on the above variables.
In 2012 start tracking your own data if you’re a geek like me, and let me know your results, I’d love to add them to a daygame database. Respect to the nerds.
Here’s to an awesome year ahead!

Kiss-close caught on film
It’s been a right Russian couple of days with daygame. From the beginning I’ve found that my style of game is well-suited to Russian women. They enjoy the bluntness of direct street compliments and a clear intention, but then rate highly good conversation and a series of dates. I’ve found them to be quite dreamy and esoterical, coupled with a strong determined vibe that can be quite materialistic. I know you can’t generalise, but the Russian girls I have dated and slept with have all had this unique blend of intellectual but superficial. And they’re hot – very hot.
Yesterday I managed to film a seduction bubble and kiss-close with a smoking Russian I’ve been seeing for a while, for the forthcoming dating product. I stayed at hers later and reaped the rewards of a string of dates with her. On the weekend I instant dated two Russians within half an hour of each other, and then went on a date with one tonight who I had number closed months ago in a shopping centre. I love their conversation, their wide-eyed driven personalities and creative flair. And their accents, thick and powerful like a good espresso.
In March 2012 I’m going to Moscow for three weeks to indulge….let’s see if Yad’s lavish recommendations live up to what I’m imagining!

Asger closing two Swedish girls today
It’s been a great few weeks of bootcamps, with the shorter days and colder weather not making a difference. We’ve had some amazing students and stories (including getting stuck in a lift today at Jon’s house) which have taken the bootcamps to the next level.
Yesterday we recorded lots of sections of the bootcamp as audio snippets….teaching, approaches, feedback, interviews, randomness. We’re going to edit them together and release them as a bootcamp podcast, so watch this space.
The guys coming on the bootcamps are getting more and more dedicated, and coming from further afield…the USA, Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Norway. With the new wireless microphones and two days of videoing, we’ve never had it so good in being able to hear and see exactly where guys need to make tweeks to their daygame. Jamie, our ninja cameraman, keeps working wonders each week to film the infields, and even Mini has had a go holding the camera when he’s been off.
Amazing things have been happening more and more…..an instant-date on a first approach during the first day’s warmup (nice work Ashley!), three number closes of three Swedish 2-sets in a row (awesome stuff Asger!). Jon’s been on awesome form in the last few weeks too. Maybe because he’s not bringing his famous daygame sandwiches anymore but eating at the greasy spoon cafe with us!
It’s also great bumping into former bootcamp students who are out daygaming on the streets….slowly but surely we are taking over central London and leaving no beautiful woman unopened. Perhaps we’ll have to move cities and begin the revolution there too….

I should NEVER be allowed to touch anything technical ever again.
I tried to ban some bot who was spamming the Cafe with penis enlargement pills or something and I… er…. kinda banned every single member.
Fml.
My technical guy is on it – should be fixed very soon.
In the meantime, I still love you, promise!

Unfortunately they’re men….
BUT – they are very talented men, and they carry with them some lovely expensive looking camera’s that they’re using to film the shiny brand new promo video for Daygame.com. Me and Yad have been loitering around the streets of Covent Garden with the film crew following us around, with hordes of curious onlooking wondering if we are filming a movie of some kind.
Can’t wait for the video to be released, it should look really cool. We got loads filmed today, but there’s more to do tomorrow and the day after before “it’s a wrap” – let’s hope the weather holds out!

PUALingo.com have released their 2010 top ten list, and yours truly has been ranked number 9, which is a bit of surprise – I had no idea I was even put forward!
Thanks to everyone who voted for me, I really appreciate the support and it’s nice to know that so many people are loving what I’m doing with daygame.com.
I have a few thoughts on the illustration they drew for me though:
1) The Dog. What is going on with that dog? And the question marks above it’s head…. why is the dog confused? Did I just steal the dog? Is it wondering where it’s real owner is? Is the dog thinking “why the hell did this chump get voted #9? I think we’ll never know.
2) The Pedo Rapist Beard. Ok, the dog I can accept. I used to have one when I was a kid, so I like dogs. Even confused ones I’ve just stolen. But pedo rape beards are definitely a no no if you want to be successful at daygame. Or maybe it’s not a beard at all? Maybe I’ve starred in a “two puas one cup” video? (which would explain the dog’s confusion). I think we’ll never know.
3) Gay sunglasses. If you want to pick up men, fine, gay sunglasses will do the job. If you want to pick up girls however, you’ll need something a bit cooler.
Next year I want to be drawn riding a big ginger horse…

I just got off the phone with Yad, and he’s told me that he’s going to be going out with our camera guy and filming infield videos exclusively for Daygame Revolution. This is stuff you won’t get to see anywhere else!
He’s told me what he’s going to get on camera, and has told me he’s 100% confident he will get what he’s after…. but I’m still hesitant to ‘guarantee’ you will see something specifically…. so all I’m going to say, is that you stand a very high chance of getting BLOWN AWAY by what you’re going to see.
This is seriously life changing, reality melting stuff. The limits of what you think is possible is going to stretched to breaking point.
I expect all jaws to be loose by the end of the Daygame Revolution event. If you still haven’t got your tickets, head over to www.daygame.com/revolution – tickets are only £20, and places are limited.
For those of you who have already bought your tickets (coming up to 100 now), I’m so excited about this one, and I can’t wait to meet you all on the 22nd of January.

Andy – “No, I know what I’m doing Joss, it’s fine.”
2 mins later.
“um…. Joss….. I kinda broke the forum”
….
Ok, I broke the forum.
I was trying to add this mod thing…. and then it broke.
And Joss (my coder/developer) was busy, so I thought I’d be able to do it myself.
He warned me not to.
But I’m stubborn, and clearly over confident when it comes to coding….
So, that’s why the forum is down. Joss has told me (with a slightly, but justifiably, condescending tone) that he’ll fix it tomorrow.
Sorry for the inconvenience guys! We’ve all learnt a lesson here. I’ve learnt not to touch the forum code… EVER. And you’ve learnt that if anything ever goes wrong again, it was probably my fault…

Hi guys,
I am stopping one on one training for good so I can focus all my time on the daygame.com business, so I want to give anyone who’s been thinking about doing a sesssion with me one last chance to come and see me. Before I get into that though, I want to quickly mention the recent launch of the Daygame Cafe….
Posted in News on November 13, 2010
Next on our list of introductions is a very talented man indeed; Russ Snakeskin. Ever since I set up daygame.com back in March, I kept hearing this guy’s name being mentioned in London’s ‘pickup’ underground, so much so, I even started to suspect he had an army of PR people going around ‘spreading the word’ of Russ.
Posted in News on November 11, 2010
Along with the launch of the new site I would like to introduce you to someone very special. I am very particular who I bring in to the Daygame.com fold, as whatever happens, no matter how big the company gets, I want to make sure that every single trainer is the best at what they do in the world. I won’t accept anything less. Well, Hayley Quinn is someone I have been keeping a close eye on for some time now, and it’s finally time to bring he onboard with Daygame.com officially.

After months and months of slow grinding work, and then weeks and weeks and finally hours and hours of endless teasing and last minute resistance….. we’ve finally launched the new version of Daygame.com!
It’s STILL not entirely finished though, there’s still a few loose ends to tie up – but that’s just me being a perfectionist. I’ve got a feeling this site will never be truly finished. But that’s a good thing!
