I saw the lists of pickup lines at . . . Lines That Are Good . . . and immediately thought they should be part of some sort of competitive event. It’s a huge list of really bad openers and each pickup line has a rating of number of times it’s been attempted and how many of those were successful.

So . . . I’m thinking that maybe the whole list should be a Challenge Contest where teams go into clubs and they must attempt to go through as many of the lines as possible within two hours. The idea being that competitors do cold approaches, as many as possible. The Lines That Are Good have to be the first thing said in an interaction which can then segue into other material but all interactions are limited to five minutes or less. Each line counts as one point (only one point per line, one point per woman, must be unique – can’t use more than one line with one woman and can’t use one line with more than one woman). Extra points for every woman who responds as a positive (judged by immediate phone number [10 points, phoneback test], kiss [25 points, kiss close digital photoproof], or pantygift [50 points, videoproof, pretty much like catching the golden snitch] so it’s not quite so easy as a laugh or a smile). The team with the most points at the end of the day wins. No fair telling people you’re competing in a game either.

Of course, co-ed teams might be fun to throw in as well. However, pitting all-woman teams versus all-man teams probably wouldn’t be fair.

Just my brain working backwards but if anyone actually puts a competition together, be sure to write a post-game rundown here, preferably with links to the image and video galleries.

All the best,
Brian
