Everyone learns at their own pace
What I like about the post below is how you are tracking your numbers. As has been pointed out forever, it is a numbers game. Once you get that at a very intuitive level, your personal game will grow much stronger. You should DM every profile you favorite. Even if they are marginal. In my experience, very few women will ever respond to being favorited. I recommend you think about keeping a spreadsheet or table for the profiles for which you get a number. It helps to have a reliable place (not the notes section) where you capture the woman's data. This is back up in case she blocks you, gets banned or loses her password. I already have PII on about two-thirds of the women I agree to meet. Once you have some regular SB's you will continue to search but you will find it much easier to skip over questionable profiles and to say No to requests for money at the MnG. The downside to offering money is your scarce time / budget can be consumed by all the eager women who want money at the MnG and who will never sleep with you. (They are legion and they are looking especially for you.) I now consider any insistence for money up front or at the first meeting to be a sign the woman does not expect to meet a second time and she knows she needs to score immediately.
Bam.
[QUOTE=Blarharse;4177791]OK, so I've put some serious hours into screening SB candidates on SA. My screening criteria are: 18-24, White / Asian, Slim, within 25 miles of L. A. I reviewed about 400 profiles, favorited 110 of them, passed DM's with about 25 of those and texted with 11 ladies so far. I have first meetings set up with 3 of them next week (all lunches / coffees). Here is what I've learned:
Now, I'm sure that some of you guys are going to yell at me for this, but in 2 of my 3 meetings, I agreed to pay $100 PPM for the first (coffee / lunch) meeting. I know it's probably not a good idea, but I need to get my sea legs here and don't want to seem cheap if the situation might actually develop into something I want. Go ahead, yell.[/QUOTE]
Here is What I've Learned So Far
After jamming on SA hard as fuck for a week, here are things I have learned:
1. If you're searching for Latinas, only check the "Slim" box because every other box means fat-ass. An "athletic" Latina does not look like the captain of the swim team.
2. Fully 1/3 of female accounts must be bots. They include one photo, invariably a beautiful selfie or headshot, and a brief one-sentence profile consisting of some generic copy. They never reply. They also tend to list multiple locations, so the site gets more bang for the buck from the labor whom they are paying to create these fake profiles.
3. Any chick who initiates a DM is either a pro, a pig, or living in an impoverished country.
4. After a week on the site, 27 looks old as fuck to me.
5. After you favorite a chick, DM with her, text with her, exchange additional pics, agree on a type of arrangement and then make plans to meet, 50% flake at that moment. Not before, not after. Right at the moment of commitment.
6. The more copy a chick writes in her profile, the crazier she is.
7. The non-pros on the site really, really, really want to find some way to have a significant amount of non-transactional conversation with you so they can pretend that they're not engaged in the world's oldest profession.
8. After a while, you can read an entire profile in 5 seconds. They are so repetitious as to defy belief.
9. The large majority of chicks don't fill in the "Seeking" portion of their profile.
10. The most satisfying comment I've heard yet from a chick was after I described, in detail, exactly what I wanted from an arrangement. After about a minute, she texted back, "I'm down for the ride. ".

11. Any chick who shows big boobs in her pix who does not share a full body shot has a fat tummy.
12. If a SB says 21, she's 21. If a SB says 22 or 23, she either means it or she's 25-26. If a SB says 24, she might be 30. There are some hard-looking 24's out there, my friends. If a SB says anything older than 24, YMMV.
13. Every coffee date I've had leads to fucking. I think a lot of SD's must be grotesque monsters.
14. Every SB has tattoos and / or piercings unless she says specifically in her profile "no tattoos or piercings"
15. There are 4 main categories of SB's in the 18-24 age range of Whites, Asians and Latinas. They are either: (1) straight-up hookers; (2) college girls who are too lazy to get jobs; (3) single moms who are struggling; or (4) very pretty girls who are kind of amazed that a rockstar or billionaire hasn't already found them and thrown Ferraris at them.
16. There is no nudity on the site at all, not in public pix or private pix. Almost no SB's, including the straight-up hookers, like to text nudes. I've texted with 100 SB's and haven't received a single nude pic. I don't ask for them, but they don't offer them, even when they're completely DTF.
17. The Bowl is fucking addictive, like crack. Do I want to check to see if there are any new hot 20 year-olds in the area who are DTF? Why, yes. Yes, I do. Every 5 minutes.
18. Some chicks deactivate their accounts and set up new accounts with the same pix. I see this every day; some new profile with pix that I remember seeing recently. Maybe they're bots or maybe bitches be crazy, but this is definitely happening.
19.18 year-old on SA are not looking to fuck. They are just playing around and then bailing out.
20. You don't want to live too far away from a SB, but you also don't want to live too close. I made a coffee date with a girl and she asked me to pick her up at her address, which turned out to be 0. 2 miles from my house, according to Google Maps. It was a 5-minute walk from my house. When I told her that, she instantly blocked my profile.
