I edited my last post. Subtle changes that make it make more sense:

Yes last night was dead. The factors you aimed at we're true - weather plus it being after Halloween, and two big Electro concerts happened last night also. I regret not making it out on the 31 st but was way to busy. Went to a concert last might and when I went passed The Drake on a Streetcar shit did look dead as hell, seen a guitar and knew it was a snooze fest ("local" artist nights and Karaoke are boner killers for me). Cheval had a jam last night, was going to drop info on it - forget why I did not - It was a hip-hop jam with a strictly scenester crowd.
We will drop info for clubs. But in honesty the lounges trump them. The downtown whores are feminists and thus sluts, the girls from the suburbs are hesitant for SNLs only so they don't miss their ride home.
Thursday's I usually always find quite slow. Unless your hitting lounges most clubs will be a quarter full. Your playing roulette with it because paying 15-20$ bucks cover to drink 8$ drinks in a quarter filled club is the zenith of frustrations for me. I can't gamble like that so If I do go out Thursdays (I rarely do) it has to be to a Jam (one off parties, monthlys, etc). Right now if I do go out Thursdays its to the 'Beastmode' monthly at 'Parts and labour'.
Surprisingly that Earls when I went by on the Streetcar was still popping with a lot of suits - It was probably 11pm - I was surprised. I still get creeped that a mega-chain resto can be a spot to party in downtown?! This isn't Oakville now!
Did you hit anything in the daytime? Those spots like The Beacs and The Drake are better for Happy Hours which I did note in my list.
Don't fuck with Ossington tommrow night as It's too much of a gamble. I admit I am viewing Toronto through a locals eyes (I can gamble a night at a lounge to go after the 5 girls whom are more DTF). Roosh just wants volume not ease its sounding like, so he may find regular clubs appealing (to a point).
I'll recommend some spots once I load up my Facebook and scan my events page. Try a club Friday then a lounge Saturday.

The bars in Queens West are too small. I need a bigger place where I can approach a few girls, so I figure I should hit a club. Any club recommendations for Friday and Saturday? Maybe a medium sized place. I know the mega clubs will attract a bridge and tunnel crowd.
A random guy approaching bitches in Toronto doesn't work that well. Social Circle game works there. You walk into a place like the Beaconsfield off the street and try to pick up, your chances are slim to none. But as soon as the bitches see you know the bar staff, or the DJ, or the host of the party, their hamster comes to life. I can go into these places and be totally invisible until they see me drinking with the DJ and his buddies. It's cliquey like that. Once this tv journalist watched me make the rounds in there, then actually opened me with "You look like you know people." It's who you know - but even then it's difficult because there are so many cocks hovering around. I'd introduce you to some people if I was there.
I get you but your confusing DHV vs pure social circle game. I agree DHV works wonders and is something I try to exploit all the time if I can. The majority of dudes in Toronto are chill.. or at least are weak enough you can manipulate them to get what you want. So its easy to make friends with Bar-staff, promoters, Djs that sort of thing because more times then not they are just like you and just tryna get buy in this Godless City we call Tdot.
But with Social Circle game. I do not agree. Its a cop-out that dudes use here and it will always lead you into trouble here is why:
When I first moved here after my honeymoon faze of being the "new guy" I settled into a solid Social circle and was hanging out with these friends constantly. Ass was easy, somebody would have people over and I would swoop a broad each time but this is when things started to go wrong. See I was not down to be put into a stable or some bitches harem of orbiters, and this is where things started to go south.
See unlike other places FEMALES run the Social circles here (Which explains the sorry state of the City, the Men lost the power to the town and females are running the show).
So more times then not in a large crew the female is the top dog.. I kid you not. And so once you start dipping your dick in all her feline friends out of jealousy, spite or the necessity of keeping the group (which she is the most valued and in control ) from imploding she will purge your ass out. This differs from Male dominated Crews where the hoes get purged out. Its the exact opposite here. Unless your a chump ass Beta whom will submit to their powers they won't keep your ass around. When she (the lead hen) realized she could no extract/extort anything from me (value, connections, freebies, etc) she did a war like holocaust on my ass and made it so I could not steal any of the broads into my stable.
That's Social Circle game for a dude whom like sex and women in Toronto. Unless your subsidizing the group with freebies or your a weak spinned Beta whom will bow and submit yourself to shitty nights drinking sweet wine and watching homo-esque indie films from Kalcutta they will lynch you out.
You could argue that its wise to just bounce from Circle to Circle. But I tell you the City gets small this way unless your willing to expand your Circles to the hinterlands like Vaughn. For a dude whom stays Downtown like me its not really that big. Its big enough to slide through the cracks and bounce around the background. Its big enough that you can comfortably roll out solo if needed and preferred. But time and time again I am seeing the same faces. Toronto may have like 3-5 million people. But Downtown is like 500-700K that is like a mid-sized City if you put into perspective.
The best game is to take your homeboys and build a mini-empire for yourselves. Build a castle of DHV to lure the lizards in. That is the only way to guarantee... guarantee.... 100% guarantee a steady stream of kitty in Toronto. Which is why now I am tryna focus myself in weaseling into the part scene and get a job working for these party heads. Slow build up that empire. I am here for 2 years more at least so I should at least make the most of it while I am here.

I'd like to hit 10 approaches a night in regular places. Getting laid is nice, but I also want to talk to enough women to describe how this city compares to others in terms of attitude and vibe.
Okay. That's what I did figure. I forget this man does have a job at the end of the day so volume is important to gauge a place fairly.
I did write the advice from a locals standpoint but also I would not of gone to those lounges on Thursday myself.. only post work at The Drake or Beacs.. the rest are barren shells of ukulele playing odd balls.
