Default My First Field Report - Please Critique

Hey guys whats up. This is my first-ever Field Report, and I'm excited to get involved in the PUA community.

I finished reading Style's The Game about two weeks ago, and ever since I have been putting several of its theories into practice. I was confident around women before, but I have to say the confidence I now have is tenfold more. Around campus I have already increased my kiss-closes and number-closes exponentially (however, the fuck-close still eludes me). It's amazing the psychological effect this stuff has on yourself.

Anyways, lets get to the FR. (Please forgive me if I omit/misuse any PUA terminology throughout)

This FR involves an atypical scene, as I was trying my skills out at a high school reunion. As such, going in I knew it would be tough to game the ladies because they all had a preconceived notion of me from high school. To an extent, this did prove to be the case. Nevertheless, I encountered situations that I think I handled well and situations that I didn't handle well. Here goes:

Field Report: Storm
Date: 11/23/07

So myself and my friend arrive to the house party around 10. It started at 9:30. I was wearing a slightly flashy button-down shirt, but nothing else was really peacocked that much. I had considered wearing a hat (like that of the Blues Brothers) but the one I had was novelty and plastic, so I decided against it.

There were about 25 people there, so it wasn't that rowdy. As soon as I walk in people notice me and say hello and such. I am calm, and I don't make overt advances to any one girl. Immediately, an AMOG tries to DLV me by saying:
"Yo, H nice haircut dude."
I deflect by saying "Yo asshole, nice Jew-Fro."

We are somewhat friends, so there were no hard feelings here, but I feel I nonetheless neutralized his comment. There were no more from him that night.

As people arrive (girls), I don't go to them, I let them come to me. I am initially turned off to the idea of even gaming these girls, as many have gained the freshmen 15 or 30 and gone from HB9s to HB7s and 6s. So initially I am hesitant and just have surface-level conversations with the occasional neg thrown in.

Example: Two girls were chillin in the corner away from the beer pong table. I open to the set:
"So is this where the people who suck at beer-pong hang out?"
"No, we're having a picnic."
"Some picnic...what are you celebrating?" (They are downing a bottle of champagne)
"Thanksgiving!"
"OK...I gotta get back to my bros"

I didn't really run any routines until later, and when I did, I kinda messed up, but oh well here's what happened.

A two girl set was chilling on the outside balcony. I approach the HB6 and turn away from the HB7. I talk to her and then say to the HB7: "Wow do you not talk at all now? Someone in college must have shut you up"
She replies: "P I'm just high and drunk...I'm out of it."
(This should have been my cue that any routine wouldn't have really worked, but I tried to run Style's 5 Lies anyway. A dumb choice as well in retrospect, as she probably didn't have any clue what was going on)
Me: "Let's play a game. I'm going to say five things. They can be questions or statements. You need to reply to me with a lie."
Her: "Wait, what?"
I repeat, give an example, and add:
Me: "Ok so now if you lose, you have to do something for me."
Her: "I'm not running around naked!"
Me: "Haha, no. Just a kiss...on the cheek."
(This part raises a question...in Style's example, you make the girl buy you a drink. At a house party, I couldn't use this, so the kiss was the only thing I could think of. Ideas?)
Her: "NO, NO. I have a boyfriend." (Shit Test)
Me: "Oh really? What's his name?"
Her: "Actually, I don't really have a boyfriend, but I don't want to play."
(Pretty sure I messed up here)
Me: "C'mon we can just play for fun."
Her: "I don't want to."
Me (annoyed): "Alright you can chill out here and be high. I'm gonna go play some pong."

Following this, I was annoyed, and my friend was ready to go. So I thought at least I should get consolation prizes and get kiss closes. Two girls, HB8 and the HB8 in the picnic, I got kiss-closes from, rather "kiss-goodbyes." This was clutch, as I had never kissed these girls before, and I had rough relationships with both of them in high school. They both also said "I better see you in two weeks." (Xmas break). And I know this is meaningless, but I replied with CF remarks such as "You won't." and "Maybe, if I'm in the mood for slutty girls." (I know this is borderline, but again I have a history with these girls, so I reasoned I could push it a bit. Especially as they have a particular image of me in their minds from high school...not the most aggressive guy.)

So, one more thing happened and then I left. I almost got into a fight, but I diffused it and the HBs were watching. After intense AMOGing on both sides, he backed down.

So that's it. My first FR. If I stayed, I MAYBE could have gotten a Fuck-close with picnic HB8, but I was ready to go, and I had to drive my friend back. Overall, I'd give the night a 5/10 and my gaming a 6/10. Please, critique and make suggestions. I promise I'll be back with more. Tonight in fact, there's a mixer I'm going to. I'll let you guys know how things go. Peace.

You should have stayed in the champagne set longer, it sounds like you bailed right away.

You should make the game sound really fun, hype it up, that way girls will be more into trying it with you, compliance.

Don't always try to follow Style's methods. Make things up as you go, try new things! The kiss on the cheek idea was good.

When she said she had a boyfriend, she just wasn't comfortable with you enough.
Ignore the fact she has one, just don't even bring it up. You were asking questions about him.

Maybe next time they refuse to play, respond with "aww you're no fun, i only hang out with adventurous people!"

Good to read your report, I expect some more in the future! Good job though man, we're here to help you if you got any questions.

Hey man awsome job for a first sarge! Im going to butt right in and fill your head with some shit yo!

Ok first of all with the rough history i picked up (no pun intended) from your FR you have had some level of game. Atleast reasonable sucess with women! Which is awsome for someone new to the game cus it helps your inner game so much! And plus you can push to be a natural. Start reading around this site and look into the more mainstream/old schools of pick up like juggler method and razorjack or gunwhich. You can find many at www.bristollair.com

Ok to the field report!

-Peacocking more would have helped you overcome alot of the preconceaved ideas the hb's could have of you. If you look different they will assume you have changed somewhat personality wise which makes it easier to generate attraction with people your already attracted too!

-You over neg. Quite alot. The 'some pick nic' was unessary. A simple chuckle would be a sufficent neg here. You were in that set btw, next time when they respond well and posotively stay in set. If there really drunk and u still wana sarge them start talking about chick crack is an easy way to get through that.

Quote:
"Wow do you not talk at all now? Someone in college must have shut you up"
Double neg that most probably offended her. Your not trying to offend her just to make her self concious. Plus that opener is pretty bad. It basically says "I was listening to you talk even when we werent in a conversation" that neg should have been saved for after you open. You live and learn

-Unless you did it with body language you had no time constraints on your openers.

Quote:
Me: "C'mon we can just play for fun."
- dont say that ever again LOL, never be needy.

Ok a few mistakes but that was really good for a first time sarge! And anyway the mistakes are easily correctable and plenty info out there to help you

And welcome to the forum man!

lols, you were on the verge of abusing some of those people. Lighten it up a bit, calling someone an asshole isnt amoging them its being a snappy bastard. Use wit not toilet humour.

props on that kiss close bro. instead of only following style's routines you may want to read a little bit into juggler's conversational jujitsu. I myself finished style's the game two weeks ago and after trying the five question game i realized i needed much more sarging experience and knowledge. the game is a good starting point but also read Mystery's stuff, Jugglers etc. listen to what they have to say. the more knowledge you have the more comfortable and confident you will be. good luck!
