Lastly, your chances of pulling at this time are close to zero. It is possible — I have done it — but in my 15 years of nightgaming, I believe I can count on one hand how many times I have pulled before 1 a.m.
Ok this is eye opening for me too.
I think I have had the idea that a good night gamer goes in and ideally pulls girls early in the night.
It probably demoralised me a bit, because I have spent hours in the clubs till they closed and it kept feeling like I was wasting my time and if I were to pull I should have done it earlier.
In some way I even thought that this:
The main beauty of nightgame, aside from the vibe and volume, is that you operate in a closed off environment - an eco-system you can "manipulate". but for this to be possible, people need to "settle in" - as in "settle into the eco-system". Before that, it is almost like approaching girls on the metro in the morning - they are likely on their way to work, and you are not their priority.
is a problem, and the more they settle in the environment the less chances you have. Because now they know you, they've seen you around a lot, and you are not exciting to them anymore.
I probably have to rethink my nightgame approach quite a bit. It's good though, because this gives me more motivation to hit clubs till late, something I had stopped doing much, feeling there was no point after a certain time in the night if I didn't have any strong hooks from earlier.
