knowing the stages of the game get you nowhere. you have to practice. like you said think of it as a game, just that and only that. So failures will not upset you but only make you better for the next possible win.
Start slow, the palm techniques and hypnosis or w/e takes a little practice, work your way up there. just start by walking up to girls and being random. youd be surprised on how good if you sell your story they are taken by it. girls i open on and be cocky/funny/neg around usually make the next move on me. ie(lets go sit down, or i want you to buy me a drink your interesting) which i never do
as far as your negs be CAREFULL. it takes game to run a solid neg, start light, l"ove your shirt, seen some girl wearing it earlier but still its a nice shirt." be prepared to get fired back on, ive laid some solid negs and have gotten them back as well "Who do you think you are? And are you retarded?" And I fired back, "I dont thnik i am anyone, I am Jayallday, and was just being honest", and "slightly i mean my bus was smaller then all my other friends."
