If you want to get right into it, this is the first mission. Read on for the full story and then start there. Current progress is displayed on the right.

Overview
The story is not new. Guy wants girl, girl doesn’t want guy. This website follows me, Devo, as I attempt to go from being the “nice guy” who is awkward and unlucky with the opposite sex into, well, something else.

I am going to get some game.

My Plan
Over the next several weeks, months, or however long it will take, I will follow and complete the Stylelife Challenge. The SC consists of 30 missions detailed in the book, Rules of the Gameby Neil Strauss, with the aim of getting a date. My plan is to read and complete each mission sequentially without looking ahead in the book. For each mission, I will write about what I need to do along with the results of each task.

The Book
The book, Rules of the Game, is written by Neil Strauss, a leading “pick-up artist” in the U.S. It is marketed as “the ultimate guide to landing the woman of your dreams”. This is accomplished though an in-depth 30-day program where Neil “challenges readers to confront their insecurities and overcome them through a process of rigorous self-examination, briefings and field missions”. It’s called the Stylelife Challenge.

The Goal
Mr. Strauss claims that after following the missions in this book that you are garaunteed a date. Personally, I’m hoping for more than just “a date”. I actually think I could get a “date” without the book’s help. But I am looking to get a date with someone I am attracted to, a woman of my “choice”. I will start by trying to get a phone number (even though a phone number often means nothing I’ve found). And if it goes well for me sooner, I will update that goal here. Also, there are a number of other rules I need to follow.

Ads
I get a tiny .05% from Amazon.com if you click the link and purchase the book. Otherwise, I have no affiliation with Neil Strauss. I selected his book based on Amazon.com reviews. As for the other ads on this website, any proceeds will go directly to this project. Dating is expensive (even though Neil claims you can do all the missions without spending anything). I pay for hosting the website, time taken away from work, and more. If you’d like to support me, give an ad a click or two, or if you have a website, link to me. I’ll try link back quickly. Also, encourage me with a comment. I read everything.
