Have you guys heard of SceneTap?

You can see the girl-guy ratio at a bar without leaving your house! You can look through your Smartphone or at there Website

I just read about it for a Marketing Class I'm taking..

I think it only exists in Chicago as of now..

Has anyone tried this?

Hopefully they expand soon. Seems like a great idea.


"SceneTap, a new app for smartphones, uses cameras with facial detection software to scout bar scenes. Without identifying specific bar patrons, it posts information like the average age of a crowed and the ratio of men to women, helping bar-hoppers decide where to go. More than 50 bars in Chicago participate."

Can't wait for this to come to LA/SoCal

[Kish]

It's only in Chicago and Austin at this point. We need this BADLY in DC.

Funny.

Every place on the first page is more guys than girls.

I'd much rather put in the hard work of finding decent spots, than having them presented to everyone using ultimate Big Brother style technology.

Useful, but I see no reason to be overjoyed. Such technology concerns me greatly.

Yeah.

Not a fan of this either.

At all.

I've never used something like this to my advantage.

I know some guys have had success with pipelining, flirt apps etc..

The fact of the matter is our society is changing. I am trying to adapt with it.

I would rather none of this type of crap exist.

However, the fact of the matter is it is here and here to stay. Might as well try to utilize some of it.

Guys dress like girls now.

Girls dress like guys now.

Of course the world is changing.

But that doesn't mean I have to like it.

I don't think an app can solve the sausage-fest problem. In fact, it will make it worse. Here's a hypothetical:

It's Thursday night. Bar X is a massive sausage fest. Bar Y, down the street, has a favorable (but not amazing) girl surplus. Tuthmosis is at Bar Y because he's done reconnaissance and knows that Bar Y has good numbers--for some weird reason--on this night. Some no-game bros at Bar X start getting itchy and get on their iPhones and load up SceneTap. They walk into Bar Y, en masse, piss off Tuthmosis, make the girls raise their sausage shields, and turn Bar Y into a sausage fest too. Now both bars are sausage fests.

Plus, let's remember that girl-guy ratios aren't our only problem. They need to pair this app with one that gives you fatty-to-non-fatty analysis. The gender ratios might be good at Club Bounce, but that only tells half the story.

I have this app. A significant limitation is that it doesn't cover that many venues, especially in some neighborhoods. Still worth checking out if for no other reason than to make sure the place you're headed isn't a total cockfest though.

Why are girls not going out? You'd figure that things like World of Warcraft would alter ratios in our favor, but there's no signs in sight. My guess is that chicks don't need to go out at every opportunity to get their fix of dick and attention.

Good point.

I think it is better to keep it a Game of moves, insight, prediction and local knowledge.

I wonder how accurate this thing is anyways.

You don't have to like it, or change with it. I'm one of two men I know that still goes to a barber. My dad and my brother go to fucking salons, and ask me why I don't go. Last time my dad asked me why I didn't go to a salon (no shit, he actually let those words come out of his mouth) I said,

"Because last time I checked, I have a pair of balls."

An alpha male is in control and in charge, he knows the power he possesses and that no one can step to him. He knows that he is the boss, the man in charge, no matter who is around or what they think. It's a true power, a testament of inner game.

Stay true to yourself, stay alpha, and you wont have to change with it.

[Kish]

You could even use this app for happy hours too. Could be a game changer.

Damn I just checked the website a bit, where the hell them girls at?

Look to the right. Under "Filter Venues". Click "more women".

Damn, only 2 results. And you would think Modern Warfare would put an end to all this.

Thats especially applicable to hot chicks, i.e. the ones we actually want to bang. Between Facebook, white knights, manginas, and everything else I'm sure your average 7 doesn't go more then 2 hours without some guy pumping her ego.

You already know the answer; every place in DC on a weekend night is a cock-fest, you don't need a fancy app to tell you that!

LMAO!

I guess having a Ratios app in DC would be like having a weather app in SoCal. Good point.

Anyone on the board in Chicago that can test-drive this to see how reliable it is?
