Last night I was having dinner with one of my attorney's who is also a great friend.

He is a little older than me, a true Playboy (more a National Playboy these days though, even though he hit up the Baltics back in the day, and Argentina after the crash) but he has been really singing the benefits of Match.com lately.

You know, showing me tons of photos of girls in varying stages of undress on his Iphone while I am trying to throw some food down my throat.

It got me thinking.

My question is this:

How many of you use online Gaming as part of your travel repertoire?

The whole concept to me is completely foreign.

Fill out the poll.

Do you guys swear by it?

Think it sucks?

How do you square up using the Internet to pick up chicks with your "inner coolness conscience"?

Do you only use it for travel?

Do you only use it in America?

I tried it out in the states. I think being 22 definitely hurts my chances; girls usually look for a guy they can have a relationship with. I'm assuming a 22 year guy doesn't fit the bill.
Maybe I'm not doing it right but I have never even met up with a girl thanks to the internet.
No, I think online gaming is a waste of time as of now.
I think if i was 25, i'd have a lot more success.

I don't bother with it. I hate texting and IMing anyway. My travel is almost exclusively international, and it is much easier to day game in the local shops and on the street than bother talking to a chica online. Also, the time invested verses the flake rate is astronomical for online game compared to day game.

In addition, my strongest asset is being able to read a woman's emotions from her body language and adjust my game accordingly. I get none of that from online game. Even video chat is of limited use.
