Who Is Thomas Elliot?

You can get people to believe just about anything if you say it with confidence.

Chill Hill Media used "Thomas Elliot" to conduct one of the illest social experiments ever. Using his actual first and middles names, and a few strategically placed co-signers, Elliot caused a frenzy in MacArthur Center in Norfolk, Va., by convincing people he was a celebrity. Mall security even fell for the charade.

Within minutes, believers were tweeting that they had seen Thomas Elliot, despite not having the slightest clue who he was.

Dude even managed to use his faux celebrity to bag a starstruck girl, who he later called just to poke fun at the notion of "celebrity." The whole ordeal is proof that people will believe anything, as long as someone else confirms it.

The bigger the lie, the more they believe.

Game.. Who needs game anyway?

This is one of the greatest things I have read in a long time!

Creating social proof & status out of deception is a pretty good game to me.

Looks like me at Maidan in Kiev/Kyiv (save for the fact that the girls are 100,000 times more attractive).

The typical 3 vs. 1 fastbreak in Ukraine for the middle aged American reject eventually becomes the 1 V. 1 encounter...

Seriously, for every lame American video you show me I can throw it back in your face with what the world is like for American guys in Ukraine. I saw nothing in that American video that makes me want to be hip in America! Nothing. You need a group that will work with you to make a bunch of ugly tramps think you are something. Then you are stuck with a bunch of chubs who want you. Big deal. In Ukraine all you need is an American passport. Bingo. Game, Set, Match. You decide. Problem is that probably none of you have the money to even get a passport (let alone travel to a place you can't find on a map).

Given the right time of year, the entire trip can be done on $1000. Getting her visa takes time and about that much more money, assuming you really do want a Russian gal, few of whom understand English much at all, and many of whom are hooked up with the Russian mob, or will become hooked, once it's discovered that she's here.

You do.

This video of a prankster who pretended to be a generic famous dude has been making the rounds on pickup oriented blogs. And with good reason. It demonstrates how preselection and manipulated perception — two core game concepts — are effective at attracting women (and attracting them for dates, which you can see proved at the end of the video when our intrepid fake celebrity calls a girl and she throws herself at him.)

Fame, as noted in the Dating Market Value Test for Men at the top of this [Chateau], is the most powerful male attractiveness trait known to mankind. Fame trumps looks, wealth and game in its ability to draw in and captivate women from all social and racial strata. Preselection is a scientifically validated game concept — studies have shown that female geese will prefer the male goose surrounded by cardboard cut-outs of other female geese over the solitary males — which rests on the theory that women are attracted to men who are themselves attractive to other women, because such men have already been “preselected” by competitor women and are thus proven commodities.

(Preselection works for men, but not women, because men can size up a woman’s sexual market value with an instant look, while women need much more information to adequately assess a man’s SMV.)

When you put preselection and fame together, you get an explosion of püssy juice, like a dam bursting to release years of pent-up tributary tingles. “Thomas Elliot” was able to induce raw, animal desire in women simply by having himself filmed in the company of admirers and ACTING like someone famous and beloved by the ladies. This could be a new game tactic for men who wish to experiment with the cutting edge in seduction technology: have your wingman film you at the bars signing fake autographs.

Now he has social proof and status because of that.

Wants to become a celebrity, fakes it. Becomes a celebrity.
