Interestingly, Facebook won't let me share this on my wall, Apparently it's been reported as offensive or spammy!

So shared the Escapist page instead!

The part near the end where the woman in the foreground was adjusting her boobs made me lol.

And the Dark Templar tattoo was pure genius.

Anyone who doesn't like it or doesn't get this you are clueless. What you say doesn't matter, how you act and carry your self does. These guys carried themselves and showed great confidence, the women had fun with it even though they said the most cheesiest things. Women are more emotional then us guys. Since they had fun with it the girls had fun with it, feelings are contagious, everyone had fun. I'm not surprised they got numbers. Kudos guys this is awesome and a great example.

So Ig uess the worst one that failed was I referenced P2 Innocent Sin by saying, and i kid you not "you are my Maya Amano, and I'm your Tatsuya Suou, so lets make an Innocent Sin for some External Punishment". Amazingly the girl knew what i was talking about, and giggled before walking away. though I later asked her out like a normal person.

.... I know, its amazing I got rid of my V-Card.

...
... but its nice to see this is catching on. And congrats to going out and meeting the girl, isntead of sitting on the computer hoping you get to face one. XD Kidding.

Good god this was so awful, I couldn't even watch all of it.

Seriously. This makes gamers look bad.
I don't know, they got a lot of numbers .... Although I have to say I don't understand how or why.

Edit: It was pointed out to me that some, if not all, of the numbers are probably fake.

Bullseye, sir. Communication is only a small % verbal. The majority is non-verbal (facial expression, tone, stature, etc.). The way you're standing, where you put your arms, the way you lean, eye contact, occasional touching (playful hitting, hugging), being well groomed, wearing clothing that fits, demonstrating high social value/confidence, etc. etc. The fact that they were spouting Starcraft was only a 'flavor' of flirting; it had little to anything to do with their success rate (might've even been a plus for Koreans!)

I kept scanning the videos for these cues and got green lights for almost everything. The white-guy was slightly more awkward, but the other two were spot on; they're either natural born or people who've studied 'the material'. The girls were giving all the positive cues (acceptance) too. Brushing the hair involuntarily, laughing, leaning forward, etc.

>_> (yes, I study the material, I'm sad like that). But honestly, it's too bad I don't have the guts to actually practice what's written. I'm not exactly an exciting guy...I have too few interests and hobbies, and have generally low energy so I can't keep things going (sustenance). The art of attraction is easy in theory (you do have to practice though, don't be lazy!)...sustaining things past the first 15 minutes, ouch. I fail so hard it's not even funny...

I'm probably better off with a low-energy girl who isn't high-maintenance. Either that or I'm going to have to start pumping B vitamins...

That was almost embarrassing... for me, because I could never get that many numbers. My only mental solace is "Most of those had to have been fake numbers."

Somebody got some girls number using Starcraft? What evil powers of does he posses?! Did somebody divide by zero?!

And at 0:33 i couldn't but think "I'm on a horse"

A lot of people believed LonelyGirl15 was real too. This video had some good editing.
