| Field Report: September 10th
Just a quick note, after reading some of DIAMONDS kick ass old field reports, I have realised I need to better mine. Though I did notice he didn’t know who the foo fighters were which made me innocently chuckle. I do also acknowledge that my field reports are clogging this thread lol.
So I met JACKAL in Birmingham library, I was in a low state due to drinking the night before, and JACKAL threw me straight at a library 2 set, I obeyed and complied without fear and worry of breaking social convention. The library is a sustained quiet conservative SPAM, and I projected my voice, opened and hooked, when my senses caught up with me and my mind was off autopilot pua mode I ejected and treated this as a warm up. JACKAL gave me some advice and a neg opener on a two set sitting by the fountain. I causally strolled down the stairs and light negged the 2 set (one redhead and a small brunette girl). I hooked the set and fluffed through the mist of the conversation, I steered the conversation to meet my aims and goals, and left with a solid number, though she saved it as ‘Ras Clart’ which has confused me, what an odd name, or more accurately an odd nick name.
We started to head to the slug and lettuce where I was introduced to DIAMONDS, whilst he was on a date with a pretty blonde, if anything is testament to JACKAL’s methods, it is this guy. I could immediately see how relaxed, happy and confident he was. I did 3 two sets nothing really hooked and I wasn’t interested in any of the girls (perhaps a bit of cognitive dissonance, in hindsight).
The next on our list was the bar, the pitcher. Two sets of 3 and 2 circled a long table and this was time for JACKAL’s next step in my learning, to put into practice the often cited phrase of social proof. I opened and hooked the three set, I am devolving a routine on giving my name, as you can imagine most people do not believe SUBZERO is your legal name, though it helps with giving good vibes in the group. Next I opened the two set of white girls beside me, I was met by blank faces which lighten with my story, I didn’t really stack, lock in, or add much value, thus I failed. We proceeded to the lower level and there I saw my Everest a 20 seated set and as we pasted them to enter the smoking area I knew what would be asked of me. But I did not panic, I did not fear, I assed the situation with JACKAL by my side, his confidence often radiates on me, and empowers me. I opened and was drawn to one side of the set, I did my powerful girls transition, but the set was so hard I was getting IOIs, but keeping 20 girls engaged is a hard feat for someone with a weeks experience of game, thus I ejected with valuable lessons and confidence.
As we left, there was a three set outside seated, with one hot brunette and a pretty blonde girl, I opened and got good vibes, I never actually locked in on the set, it slipped my mind, foolishly. The set went well and I pushed and pulled and did one routine. JACKAL came into wing and with such ease occupied the two obstacles. A noted social phenomena by afc adam is conversations can only consist of four people, otherwise it is a speech to a group, so when the set was made a five (including me and JACKAL) it was natural to semi-isolate my target. I ran a kino based routine and then pushed through to comfort. The number close I made to be a product of the interaction, not the defining aspect. We all hugged goodbye and ejected. I am going to call her tonight, I promise JACKAL lol.
My state started to decrease here, I did not feel in the zone, JACKAL tried to cheer me up with some comical openers on street sets, I pretended to die of a heart attack in the face of their beauty and JACKAL saved me of sorts. We entered the bars of the mailbox, here the posers and the ‘it’ girls come to party, the place is beautiful and it has a certain swagger about it. As we walked in conversation, I ever listening to JACKAL’s pua advice, I saw an even harder set than before, was this possible, in fact this was the hardest set I have ever seen in my life from birth all the way to this point, this one topped the rest, it was a 15 set all 8s,9s and even a 10! I opened, and got through my opinion opener, but the blonde 10 was very bitchy I negged her once, though she probably needed another two, she stole frame and gave me permission to speak, I ejected but left better then I had entered, the set seemed happy.
We went to the bars in the mailbox and I met DOLPHIN, he welcomed me, this guy looks very composed and well put together. We did a few sets, but nothing really solid, my state was low. On to the last set of the night, a street set, a two set, one blonde and a small brunette, I opened and DOLPHIN came into wing. I didn’t really do anything here other than a bit of fluff, I really need to wing better and stop freezing out, though by this time my state was very low. DOLPHIN re opened as they walked away (we let them) and I think he number closed. My state was crap here I didn’t even feel social, so I said my goodbye and left.
Things for next time… stack routines, I didn’t do this at all and my game was messy as a result, I need to maintain my state: this is the biggest factor that is letting me down. My voice is becoming much better, so I will focus more on alpha body language.
Peace
