The latest gathering of Big Guns Down Under was an awesome night of stories and camaraderie among like-minded blokes.

Along with some mates who are game-savvy but not registered here (comprising a diverse bunch of fellas such as one who is an SNL legend and one who is buying a house with his Missus), RVF was likewise well-represented by seven members. In celebration of this success, here's the latest wrap-up of my offline connections.
==========================================
Part 1. Shout out to a forum statesman.
Off The Reservation
While we haven't met face-to-face, I always learn something when talking with this man of experience and integrity. He has achieved a number of stellar accomplishments in the business world, and yet the hustle lives on. He is also generous with mentoring both on and off the forum, and has put a lot of effort into meeting forum members in real life, including the likes of Roosh, Gmac, Tokyo Joe, Laner and others.
His integrity flows through here, as he is tireless in keeping RVF standards high. He is a master of perception that can sniff out frauds and mean-spirited infiltrators. Trolls better think twice before posting with this guy around! Similarly, take a stroll through the newbie section and you can see him checking in on rookies' progress. The evidence is clear - this forum is stronger with Off The Reservation around. Some example contributions from the Professor X of RVF:
* Datasheets:

* Advice on women and life:

RE: Conceited Fine Girls Ignoring Me - Need Your Advice
* In-group accountability:

RE: Official introduction thread
* Humour:
RE: Are there any reasons NOT to expatriate from the U.S.?
==========================================
Part 2. First-time meets in person*
* EinsteinsLaundry
Yes he lifts. Mr EinsteinsLaundry took me to his local gym and I got to enjoy a free session thanks to his social grace and Korean language skills. What’s more, he has a laid back, friendly and super positive vibe that makes him likable to everyone around him. He is in prime playing age, and beyond that, is doing very well for himself in many ways. I could see girls checking him out on the subway and I even felt more eyes on me just for hanging with him. Put simply, this guy is killing it.
* Yourboychris
I originally made contact with Yourboychris through another private forum, and thereafter we re-connected through this board. Finally, we met up for real and I was instantly impressed. A super nice guy, he has many years of experience in the game, a wealth of insights into Korea and enviable business knowledge. I didn’t get to spend much time together as I was passing through, so I look forward to hanging out more next time. It was also a pleasure to introduce him to EinsteinsLaundry.
* Rider
We had a great day out which was all fun, no pressure, and super high energy. Rider will talk to anyone without hesitation.
(Oh yeah - we found the pet shop.

I asked the manager if he stocked any lizards or hamsters as Rider looked on in amusement. The answer was "no" to both, however he was expecting the Aussie equivalent of the hamster to arrive soon - the aptly named
guinea pig.)
What really struck me about Rider was his demeanour and achievements. He is quite young, yet has already enjoyed plenty of travel experience, developed a solid relationship and is a well-rounded, good guy. Indeed his mindset, smarts, and social skills are impressive for a man of such a young age. I foresee a great future ahead of him and will put him in touch with my clique.
* Yellowfever
This bloke is a cool, likable young man who has done a lot considering his young age. He got on well with my crew who, like me, love his RVF username - in fact his choice gets a 10/10 from me and I took pleasure in asking him to repeat it as I introduced him to my mates throughout the night. Yep, this man has great taste in women. More than that though, he is well-travelled, highly sociable and has some serious business smarts. An exciting future lies ahead for Mr Yellowfever, no doubt.
* Panknows24
I had the pleasure of popping his first RVF meetup cherry... well, to my knowledge... I mean,
he told me I was special [*whimpering*]. Panknows24 is a cool young guy who is keen to learn and was well-received by my crew. With his looks, drive, language skills and more, I predict he will rise high in game and life. Will connect him with my boys again.
* Cynical Contrarian
I was likewise stoked to be the first RVFer to meet Cynical Contrarian and to introduce him to Conscious Pirate. It was satisfying to see two of the forum's most prominent Aussie social skeptics talk shop. To my knowledge of all the RVF posters from Australia, CynicalContrarian is the #4 all-time contributor in terms of post count, a figure which illustrates his sincere interest and dedication to this forum. He is a highly insightful, well-spoken and genuine bloke who I feel I can learn a lot from. Respect.
* Eddie_7
Went for a gym sesh with Eddie, as we talked everything from creatine to BCAAs, leg presses to pull-ups. He showed an ability to learn quickly and try new things at the gym, along with a keen interest in gaining knowledge in general. Eddie is a genuine, nice fellow, and being quite young (at a similar age to me when I found pickup), he has plenty of years ahead of him to put into the game.
* Transsimian
Our meetup was really brief and we didn’t get to talk on personal level. That said, I do acknowledge that he put in the effort to come out when he wasn't feeling great, which shows a genuine desire to connect in real life. I was also able to introduce him to Eddie_7 among others.
==========================================
Part 3. Referrals.
I referred these two blokes to RVF, both of whom I've known for several years. Thanks to my fellow members who have given them a warm welcome.
Billybobsbrothel
His username is a reflection of his laid-back, chilled and fun vibe (he isn't into p4p, oh boy, ha). As he wrote in his concise intro: "
if you could summarise me into 2 words its; yellow fever" - hmmm, that's gonna be a 'hell yeah' from me. A great bloke with many talents, Billy always helps me out and makes me laugh. He is travelling at the moment and I recommend him for a meetup with other RVFers.
MysteryBlack
I have a lot of love for MysteryBlack - a very smart, funny and genuine bloke who is in the prime of his dating life. Anyone who meets him will attest to his positively-charged high-energy vibe. Despite living far away from me for the most part, I consider him to be a brother from another mother and we have talked regularly for the best part of the last decade. We have traveled internationally and he has been a long-standing member of my wingman hall of fame (reserved for guys who have winged for me and thereby helped me get laid). See here for the
detailed intro of a bro for life.
==========================================
Part 4. Reunions.
It was great to see these blokes again after staying in touch regularly since meeting last year. I've given them a shout out before and wanted to add a final note here.
John5000
This was the second Big Guns Down Under meetup John had attended and as usual he was getting on with the rest of my tribe like a champion. A charming, genuine young bloke who has a smart head on his shoulders and a great future to look forward to.
Conscious Pirate
Conscious Pirate has been giving me some very helpful food for thought on the topic of serious relationships and family. As my sights are firmly set on building my own clan, it's crucial that I'm totally honest with myself about things like my areas for improvement and choice in a prospective wife. Now, I've
written here about the importance of offering encouragement and fostering empowerment when giving feedback, and Conscious Pirate has been a living embodiment of this for me. Sure, I get some tough love at times -- but much more than that -- I feel that he truly values me as a friend and never hesitates to recognize my gifts and potential. In short, he has given me a lot of support and helped me to better recognize my own worth. And for that I am very grateful. Thank you.
The brotherhood is growing stronger. Let's keep building.
