IMHO, that's not game, that's privilege. And before anyone chimes in to say "Yeah but anyone can get rich and acquire status and hit the gym", I would urge you to look into hard data and see how many people despite their sincerest efforts manage to make it to the upper middle class or higher strata of society - most remain where they were born.
Yes, by all means, lift, work hard, build up your personality - these things can only help and are rewarding in their own right, even outside of the quest for pussy.
To me, 'having game' means the ability to pull quality women (7.5+)
consistently despite having one or more major shortcomings, such as height/race/poverty etc. Someone with good game will almost always have an unshakeable belief in his ability to get and keep a girl - no woman is 'above his league'. Confidence, an exceptional ability to read social cues, knowing just what to say and when to say it, when to escalate to more physical gestures etc etc. It's all of these things really, and probably more.
Just about any guy can get with the fuglies no one else is looking at, and likewise, if you play the numbers game, you'll have your successes with the knockouts from time to time also. But that's just dumb luck, not game. And you know what? It's a perfectly fine strategy to pursue - you do you. Life is short, and at the end of the day, you'll remember the awesome nights with the 10s, not the dozens of women that rejected you before her.
But I digress.
I see many guys on here who claim to do well in the field, but then it comes out that they're 6'2", ripped, relatively well off etc. It's great that they get action, but honestly, these aren't the guys I'd try to emulate - that's like trying to get better at basketball as a 5'0" dude by taking tips from the 6'10" NBA player, lol.
Not saying you can't learn anything at all from them, but it's better to learn from those similar to yourself who've somehow managed to beat the odds. If you can't find people like this, you'll have to set the example for others yourself...
