"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
4th annual Anti AA Competition
- Thread starter Gray The Prince
- Start date
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Let's do this.
Let's do this.
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

AAA Competition is back!

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

No, got too much on my plate, though I may occasionally step in and do some of the challenges myself for the hell of it.Robyn923b said:

Since quite a few veterans have joined, you should consider making it a two tier competition. That is, give them the same challenges, but allow them to win within their cohort.Gray The Prince said:

I know there's a few of you who need to sign up but haven't yet! Time's running out!
Instead of making veterans ineligible, I'm gonna go ahead and go with Robyn's idea of making a Veteran's division.

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
I participated last year, and got pretty far in the competition if I remember.
Sign me up.
I'm still not where I want to be, and last night I backed out of approaching a HB9, I don't want this to keep happening.

21 participants, who will be left standing?
As you see, I took Robyn's idea to heart and decided to put all of the vets into a separate division. At first the veteran tasks will only be slightly harder than the gladiator's task but the difficulty will steady increase as I try to weed guys out. If there's a gladiator and a veteran left standing at the very end, then they will be their respective division's champion and will compete head to head with each other to become the official champion. (Yep, all vets in the competition are now eligible to become champion if the circumstances end up a certain way since their challenges will be noticeably harder.)
Same rule applies every year is still in effect this year.
Two strikes and you're out.
What gets you a strike?
1. Not completing a challenge on time.
2. Failing to do the challenge at all.
3. Complaining about the challenge being too easy/hard. (This wasn't a problem last year but we had an incident of this back in the 2012 comp)
Without further ado, here's the very first challenge.
Gladiator's Division!
Approach seven people regardless of gender and strike up a conversation or at the very least say hello/good morning/evening/afternoon/your shoes are untied/I don't give a damn what you say/whatever. However at least three of them must be HBs. This can be randoms, a girl in class, anywhere. You do not have to get a number this week. What I'm looking for here is small talk and eye contact.
Veteran's Division!
Make three approaches and go for a number close in all three. It does not matter whether you get the number or not.
You all have until Sunday February 23 11:59 pm Pacific Time to get this done
Best of luck men.
