So basically I'm just going to list 'observations' more than questions and invite comments from anyone...

- Getting on well with your wing and knowing each other will help your game. If it's someone you don't know you'll find it harder to play off each other. Your story will be less congruent and most importantly you need to enjoy each others company as other people should see you as a fun person / having fun with your wing.

- atleast 50% of starting the game is having the balls to get stuck in, maybe even 75%+.

- Approaching as a group can be intimidating and you can scare people away. Maybe approaching as an individual rather than a group would be better and introducing your wing after a few minutes.

- Approaching HBs DOES DLV, the indirect approach or catching them as they walk passed is what I prefer (however there are merits of the direct).

- Freshers week makes me feel OLD! I opened 2 sets last Saturday that were both under 16. Seriously!?

- Verbally escalating is as important, if not more than important, as physical escalation (kino).

- Getting massively blown out can be funny.

- Asking genuine questions of strangers (HBs) can pave the way for an opener if you don't have the balls initially.

- Having a good wing and socialising regularly makes a massive difference and simply statistically improves your odds.

- Sarging should be fun and shouldn't make you feel worried/anxious. It's called The Game for a reason!
