I don't care if its a book/DVD/download etc-

What have you used that's gotten you laid often?

For me a big problem I have is keeping the hamster approved chatter going. I'm an introvert and intellectual and hate talking about her friends cars and her shoes. Any help in how to small talk would be great from you guys who are veterans. Thanks.

Start with Roosh's books: Bang and Day Bang.

He writes about the exact problem you're having and how to use 'rambling' to connect etc.

[Switch]

I second Day Bang. I've soaked up all of Christian McQueen's free stuff too. By far my favorite manosphere writer. Hilarious podgecast with good info too. Will purchase CM's most recent book very soon. Mystery Method is good too. It lays out a good format for picking up, but is definitely cheesy. I read The Game by Neil Strauss, interesting to see a total transformation like the one he went through. The online Lay Guide (free) that Roosh used to get started had good info.

Breakdown: Read Roosh for game, McQueen to become alpha and have game, and The Game for inspiration. Everything is good though. Read as many different sources as you can and put together a style that works well for you and that you like. There is no one-size-fits-all style of game that works. Everything must be individualized for example I don't do any night game at all (age 17). Keep reading this forum. It's like 10,000 books for free.

[Tideride]

I appreciate the feedback.

Im the kind of guy who can read all day (I actually have Bang and some Ross Jeffries CDs) but have a hard time remembering and spitting out the routines in the field.

As a methaphor I'm like the guy in the boxing gym who thinks up all these strategies but once in the ring I freeze up panic and don't execute my plan.

McQueen- you're a pro. Was there ever a time you felt your game was awkward or inadequate? Is that just a newbie thig and the only thing to do is go out get scared and overcome the fear? Thanks.

[michelin]

in this order:
1.Day Bang - for overall game
2.Bang - how to go from escalation to bang
3. Some London daygame pod and videocasts (Krauser and Torero)

Other stuff: Gary Brodsky has some good stuff to de-pedestalize women. Strauss was an initial incentive years ago but the book has gathered a layer of dust by now.

Of course: Rooshv and RVF is my daily meal.

If I had to pick only one best resource it would be Day bang.

[Kimber]

Book of Pook: sensational for giving you the right mindset - free for download, just Google search it

60 years challenge: excellent pure game resource. Tips, tricks, lines, everything - can torrent it

I have read the bang books, they're great and informative but the other two books are personal preference and are better game resources for me personally. They give you the mindset of 'it's just a game' and you're doing it to have fun so talk about whatever the fuck you wanna talk about. It's your job to steer and direct the conversation where you want it to go. Amuse yourself and the girls will be amused by that.

Models by Mark Manson is a really good book as well.

When I was 13, exploring the Internet, I found Tucker Max's website and that was my introduction to game. He doesn't even explain game, he just writes for entertainment, but I remember reading his stories and thinking "my god... This guy does and says whatever the fuck he wants and it makes girls want to have sex with him?? I need to be like him." Up until that point rappers and nba players were my idols, but I thought they got women because they were rich and successful. Tucker was the first time I realized that a broke nobody can still kill it with women if he acts right. Later on I made friends with a guy in high school who was popular and killed it with the girls. I studied him and emulated a lot of what he did. To this day I still respect him as one of the most alpha guys I know.

Right now I read whatever blogs/articles come my way and just started posting here. Also reading day bang in my spare time and hoping to transition from night game to mostly day game by the end of the year.

[BiggNastee]

You're gonna want to read this also. Great for never putting that poos on a pedestal again.

The archives at mASF. The field reports from the top guys show the diversity in the number of ways to bang

This is a bit unconventional, but I would put the TV series Californication under the category of a "game resource". I feel that watching an alpha in action teaches me much more than just reading tips and tricks for becoming alpha, althouth the latter has its own importance too. I find the main character, Hank Moody, from the series supremely alpha and watching him has improved my body language, voice intonations and confidence level in general (friends noticed this and have started pointing it out).

The only caveat is that Hank Moody is not a real-life person and often says things that might sound weird in real life. This brings me to a related question: is there a way to obtain around 100 hours of footage of a real-life alpha person in action? All I want is several hours of video recording of an alpha person in field. There do exist a few such videos on YouTube, but they are few and often of a shitty quality.

What for? I didn't become a better grappler by watching hours of ADCC footage, but I have by studying, drilling the techniques and mat time (live 100% effort practice against training partners).

I got the same results in body language the same way. Read the books, take notes, and get out there and practice.

Of course practising is the most important part of learning game. But this thread is about game resources and I think observing an alpha person in action is an excellent resource. If you can find a mentor to hang out with and observe his techniques, that's the best, but short of finding a real-life mentor, videos can be helpful too. 100 hours is perhaps an overkill, but videos are useful, at least to me.

Bang helped me the most starting out. McQueen's books are good once you get the basics down.

People learn in a variety of manners. The method that helps you best may not be the most efficient/effective method for another person.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_styles

To answer the OP's question, I think this forum and a variety of sites I've got on my Wordpress reader are my favorite/best game resource.

However, beyond that I doubt it would be a single thing I've read, it would probably be observing (with a reasonable amount of red pill understanding/introduction) my friends who are good with women. They make sure they look good, have a good time, aren't afraid to approach and are relaxed. Social guys so plenty of social proof in many situations, but they could show up to a place they've never been and meet/connect with people and quickly meld into the local scene. I learn to be more like them and observing them has helped my game immensely, especially because they live and game in the same environment as me.

There's probably 100 hours of footage of Mike The Situation and Paulie D available online.

The only video I've seen of The Situation is this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJjNjXZTwSA

It's so cringe-worthy that it's hard to have any respect for him.

Will check out Paulie D.

Talking of blogs, Heartiste is one of my favorites: http://heartiste.wordpress.com/

Excellent for inner game.

Also, the writing style there is so eloquent that reading it might accidentally improve your writing skills.

As for small talk and rambling in general:

One resource that I've gone through at least 5 times is Paul Janka's DVD set "Beyond The Digits". It is very comprehensive.

Classic case of low-anxiety threshold. It's genetic. Introverts(also genetic trait) tend to be like this. And I'm a natural somewhat low-energy introvert too.

Someone quoted(and I don't recall who this is anymore) something that stuck with me: Learning game is a logical progress, but attracting a woman is an emotional process. Know the difference. Just like your fight analogy, you could read the best books in the world on fighting techniques, but once someone in a rage starts swinging at you all that could go out the window quick then it just comes down to your heart for the fight and killer instinct.

Yeah, rambling is tough for introverts because we typically eschew smalltalk. I've gotten better at it through the years and repeated practice, but I don't think I'll ever be as good at it as a high energy extrovert. I'm sometimes astounded by some people's ability to talk endlessly about nothing in particularly. Other than some of the books recommended, watching late night TV talk shows may help. These hosts are masters in knowing how to talk to anyone and bring fun, upbeat conversation out of them. I don't normally watch TV, but sometimes I'll watch Letterman or Fallon and just make mental notes of how they keep a conversation lively.

Good luck!

Books will help like others mentioned but for me meeting forum members and seeing them in action provided the biggest jump in my game.

I would recommend reading the books/RVF posts/blogs and meeting the members both. Meeting members will help Internalize/solidify the game concepts and ask members to critique your game, Atleast that's how I got better.

[Test Pilot]

I always enjoy Gary Brodsky's material for a refresher, frame and motivation.
