On the other hand, from having gotten a hang of DC, it seems like the guys on the board consistently reference clubs that are far and away the cheesiest and most pointless places to spend any time. Only an utterly clueless buffoon would go to a place like ultrabar or lima, and anyone slightly in the know would best avoid 90% of the places on 18th st.
So enlighten us. Where did you go that was so much better?
How many times did you pull?

Also, if you do have a strong in to a social circle, it is pretty simple to get consistent sex from annoying 6s and 7s.
How do you know this? You were only here for 2 months.

I have a good friend who went to school in DC and still had many close friends in the area, a few who I'd met in passing before, so I was pretty much immediately plugged into a scene of maybe 30-40 rotating people who'd all lived in DC 5+ years or so. The main guy I hung around with, though never outwardly beta, was boring, unattractive, and unstylish, but he probably went through about 7 or 8 different girls in the 2 months I was there, entirely through social circle. To be fair, maybe 2 of them were 7s, the rest below. Another 2 that I saw were pretty disgusting. He was the kind of guy that was enthusiastic about sex with just about anyone, a quality I envy.
In 2 months, I had 5 bangs, 3 being girls I was introduced to. Got a bj from another girl I had approached, tried to follow up and she flaked. I'd say they were all 6-6.5 except for one 8 I picked up at velvet lounge who was just visiting from nyc for the weekend. A handful of numbers/makeouts...I'm typically only interested in same night sex and rarely follow up on girls I only makeout with.
If you were to say that these are average numbers, I wouldn't disagree. All I was trying to say in the original post is that, when critiquing DC, it seems like people on the board pick what are far away the absolute worst examples of the city, when there are clearly better options. Don't get me wrong, it is profoundly inferior to NYC, but it's not as bad as it's made out to be.
places i thought were decent, at least insofar as they were not suffocatingly cheesy and mostly frequented by acceptably normal, down to earth chicks (by american standards)...velvet lounge, dodge city, jack rose, dc9, american ice company, marvin (on mondays), 18th street lounge (very hit or miss...but when a hit this was probably the most solid place), napoleon (on the occasions there were parties there), st. ex, wonderland (only went once, had an ok time). If you can tolerate house music, U hall can also be fun. Again, none of these places are spectacular, and if you literally can't get hard if a girl isn't a sparkling pearl of virginal femininity in 6 inch heels, you may have just as little fun at these places. All I'm saying is that the ratios, number of fatties (not a big issue overall), and personalities of the girls were all tolerable...and solid 2-3 points more enjoyable than these club photos would suggest.
