| Okay, so I tested this last night and I have to say quite successful. It opened 4 out of 6 sets, so maybe about as reliable as any other "scripted" opener.
The first set it didnt open which i think was the 2nd set I approached, i think it was a 5set of girls, it contained an absolute brickwall of an alpha female. She was having none of it. I could tell a couple of the group were open to being approached and didnt mind my presence but the rest i think were just following the leader. I tried all my tactics to break down bitch shield but to no avail, I gracefully retreated.
The second set it didnt work on was a 3 set, and they were just giving me nothing. They just really couldnt think on their feet and interact like that. They just looked confused, not dismissive or rude, but it just wasnt gonna go anywhere.
As to the 4 sets it did open, it actually flowed quite easily. They'd give a couple of confused responses, then I'd say something interesting or a joke or whatever, then they started to understand the frame I was presenting and fell into it and gave some banter and managed to flow into a general conversation. Got a kiss close and a number from one set, a couple of numbers/facebook adds from some others.
I found smaller sets more receptive for this, maybe thats a theme in general - smaller sets welcome an addition to their group more? Not sure.
Didnt get an opportunity to try a single though. Well, i did but I didnt take it, I had a rush of AA after a failed approach. Stupid.
