It is mandatory for every daygame blog to have a stats section. It is a ritual and a mark of the community. I started daygame in a June, so I track the year from June to June. Here are mine:
Approaches: 230 – 120 in CITY_1 city and 110 in CITY_2
Numbers: No idea, I know it was around 30-40 in CITY_1
Dates: 33, specifically 12 in CITY_1 (8 dates, 4 idates), and 21 in CITY_2 (6 dates and 15 idates)
Near misses: 3 – 1 in CITY_1 and 2 in CITY_2
Lays: 4 (one 8, two 7s and one 6)
This comes out to 1 lay per 57.5 sets. Which is about intermediate daygame. As always, stats by themselves are half the story. We will give a lot more context to the analysis.
Overall, this was a year of tremendous growth. I am not the same person as last year. There was great adversity; this was not optimized daygame. Just compare my A/L ratio to the previous year in CITY_3 on the same country: I had a city center apartment and 10 lays in 320 sets. One of this year’s girls has stuck as an LTR, and I am happy with that. Additionally, I only had about 4 months of real daygame time. The rest of the year, I was under tremendous work stress or traveling with LTRs.
Finally, as it will be stated later, CITY_2 has been the high point of the year. I have achieved things I never thought possible. Total suspension of disbelief. Prior to this year, I had done about 8 idates total. This year I have done 19. I used to have one idate kiss close. Now I have done 9 more. I had my first SDL. I had 3 very close SDDLs and also one SDL near miss. I have kissed 4 girls in under 30 minutes of knowing them. I even made a girl cry purely from deep rapport in a date. But… logistics were never on my side, so a lot of these make nice stories, but never materialized into lays.
CITY_1
The start of the daygame year found me in CITY_1. As a theme of this year, I was living 1 hour and 30km away from the daygamable area. I was crushed by work, not a psychological high point. Specifically, this city is my Achilles heel; I never managed to properly settle. Between work stress and a god-awful housing market, for the most part, I was a shell of a man.
Adverse logistics made me practice idates. My philosophy in idates is to carry on as long as possible. I am not fine with the 10-minute coffee chat. Out of the 19 idates this year, only 3 or 4 lasted less than one hour. Everything else was, for all intents and purposes, a full date with the texting part skipped.
The combination of the factors explained above made my inner game a rollercoaster with ups and downs. My actual game followed suit. I had some of the craziest experiences. Including my fastest lay ever in just 45 minutes from saying hi at the start of the date to sex.
I lost multiple girls in the transition from the first date (in the city center) to the second date (in my area). But for the most part, it wasn’t a nice experience. Compared to other places in CITY_1, this place felt it had a higher percentage of closed-off people. More Asians who don’t acknowledge your existence. Higher flake rates, at some point I had 14 in a row – for the love of God, avoid the Japanese and the Thais, they ain’t replying back.
Eventually, I learned I had to move to CITY_2 for work and so I settled into a mini LTR for the last months in CITY_1.
CITY_2
I arrived in CITY_2 in the middle of winter, with a bitter taste of daygame in my mouth. CITY_1 hadn’t been a failure, but it had been really unpleasant overall. More like a long grind. But I wasn’t ready for CITY_2.
This time, I was living even further away from the daygameble area, a full 1.30 hours away. Metro doesn’t even serve my area. At least it is only 20 euros away by taxi. As I quickly realised, the CITY_2 city center is flocked by tourists and lacks students. There are positives and negatives on this, but all in all, it makes logistics really hard. CITY_2 is a 1-3 day destination as a stopover before people go island hopping. The normal daygame sequence of number into date into home doesn’t work. It is about sex right here right now, or bust. At this point, I had barely done any idates and I had never had a SDL. I had only kissed two girls from idates. All in all, I felt CITY_2 was a fool’s errand. I started daygaming halfheartedly, just waiting for the imminent mental breakdown to arrive.
Boy oh boy, I was in for a treat. Every preconception and limiting belief I had about daygame and seduction was destroyed. Viva la daygame.
My first lay came just 35 sets in, on my second proper date. It was a 1.30-hour lay. I had my first SDL near miss, just a 1-hour bounce back. I had already achieved 3 idate kiss closes in CITY_2. One of them is just 20 mins in. The moment I decided to accept the reality of CITY_2 daygame and go balls deep into the idate-SDL sequence, the world opened up to me.
This didn’t happen by chance. I was always redlining dates. Pushing for faster escalation. Not riskier per se, but I wanted to learn the skillset. By extension, I had to learn the boundaries. This culminated in the fact that at this point, I have had more near misses (at a proud 17) than lays (at a proud 16). In CITY_2, something clicked, and I finally worked myself around ultra-fast escalation. Something on the lines of Krauser’s “Girl junkie”, 2015 daygame memoir.
The second lay came just 25 sets later, and it was my first ever SDL. It was a 1.30-hour date before the taxi bounce-back. I saw her again a few days later, and it was the first time I had sex in a coffee shop’s toilets (of the clean variety).
Since then, I have done another 40-50 sets with a whopping 13 dates coming out of it. Half of them I kissed. Two of them culminated in me taking their tits out in side streets, but logistics never lined up for a lay. I can count 5 sets that would have been a high likelihood lay given better logistics or more time. But they weren’t there. My best sets didn’t even have time to come out on a date. Such is life. Every girl in CITY_2 has three magic words for you: “I leave tomorrow”, and the reality of things is that most girls are not up for ultra-fast SDLs, even if they are happy to fool around.
Conclusion
All in all, I am really happy with this year. I broke every personal record, lived some crazy adventures. Hell, I am typing this after finishing a week of 10 new first dates.
My stats are exactly what they should be. The magic A/L of 1:30 doesn’t come magically and in any setting. It comes from perfect logistics and exquisite vibe, i.e., old town apartments, while traveling in Eastern Europe. In contrast, I live way too far from the daygame action, and the majority of the days I can’t even leave work for a minute.
I know my date-to-lay ratio is horrendous, but no game can make a girl horny for fast SDLs unless she has a predisposition for it. I weighed my chances and attempted to make something out of nothing. It’s silly to suggest doing fewer dates to make my stats look better. The opportunities presented themselves, and I took them to their natural conclusion.
