Using Game Theory to Attract the Hottest Girls on Online Dating Sites
As anything I add to this will probably decrease the awesomeness quotient of it, here it is. Unedited.
“A few months ago two friends and I decided to do something interesting. We live in a relatively small town. Not tiny, but small. On OkCupid we saw about 30 women from here, but they would not respond often. So we decided to create 50 fake accounts, all of them beautiful women that would divert attention. We meticulously constructed the profiles to look authentic. Then came the day to set everything in motion. My two friends operated the 50 accounts while I found the prettiest (real) woman I could and after a while decided to hit on her.
It worked. With everyone, particularly the hunks, occupied with fake women I secured a date with a woman who was most certainly out of my league. Two dates. Sex. Still seeing her, but wouldn’t want her or anyone else to know about how I got her.
I’m planning on automating this with some coding in the future so it will scale for when I’m in a small city or something.”
Genius, I say, if real. John Nash would be proud.
