AFC Adam vs Maxim magazine

[AFC AdamLondon]

Heya guys,

So I know it's been a while since I last wrote up a full field report. I kinda wanted to wait until I had something of actual value to write. Stories of street closes, direct game and all can be found everywhere on the net now, and as you know I like to really raise the bar. Although in this case I don't think I was fully aware of just how high the bar was to be raised. I originally wrote this FR up as an article for askmen however they decided it was a little too "out there" for their readership, this is when I realised it would probably make a pretty good write up for the community.

Now before reading this please bare in mind that you are incredibly unlikely to find yourself in this situation. Also I wouldn't recomend trying to get yourself into it. As much fun as it was, I did have a good alibi should anything go completely wrong and a random dude copying this could end up in alot of trouble. You have been warned!

It all started with a call from Maxim magazine.

Maxim dude: Hi is this Adam Lyons?
AFC Adam: Yeah it is.
Maxim dude: We've heard that you've been voted one of the top 3 pick up artists in the world and currently live in the UK.
AFC Adam: Erm yeah I suppose I kinda have, though I plan on leaving the UK within the next few weeks.
Maxim dude: Ok well we'd love to interview you for maxim and put your skills to the test. We'd like to prove that the UK has one of the best seducers in the world.
AFC Adam: Well how can I say no?
Maxim dude: we'd like to see you in our office to complete a set of tasks and show us what you're made of.
AFC Adam: I'm there!

Now a wise man may have asked what the tasks would involve. I've never been a wise man. Being the little media whore that I am, and always willing to show that unlike many other people in the community I can actually do the things I teach off I set with a spring in my step.

I arrived at the office pretty much ready fro anything, model parties, nightclubs, street approaches, alpha male blowouts. Seriously what could they give me I hadn't done a hundred times before?

Maxim dude: Hi there nice to meet you, ok we have 3 simple tasks for you.
AFC Adam: Done!
Maxim dude: Thats what we love to hear! First we'd like you to pull a chick in a bar.
AFC Adam: Hahaha Easy
Maxim dude: Then we'd like you to pull a chick off the street.
AFC Adam: One of my specialties, no problem.
Maxim dude: Then we'd like you to go to an office you've never been to before, blag your way into the office, walk up to the hottest girl in the room in front of all of her co-workers and pull her while she's working at her desk.
AFC Adam: ...ahem...I'm sorry, what?
Maxim dude: We know it's a little too much to ask. If you can't do it we understand.
AFC Adam: Dude too much to ask? are you kidding me? No-one has ever done anything like this as far as I'm aware. This is almost impossible, I mean do I even have a reason to be there?
Maxim dude: No
AFC Adam: Can you even get me access to just chill in the room for a few minutes first?
Maxim dude: No
AFC Adam: Mate you're aware of just how impossible this is right?
Maxim dude: Look if you can't do it, we can just find another...
AFC Adam: Mr you really don't know who you're talking to. There is NO WAY I'm not going to do this, it's an amazing challenge. I just want you to realise how bloody impossible it is before I go in there and make it happen.
Maxim dude: So you'll do it?
AFC Adam: Watch me.

And with that I headed off to the sales building for their office. Now I want you guys to realise that the bravado I just showed the guy was actually just me building my state and confidence. I needed a complete surge of super confidence as this would be a one shot challenge. No warm ups no trial run. Do it or fail. So I built myself up with a stupid amount of self worth and ego to make sure all the doubt was gone from my mind. Not necessarily the best state to game in, however, definitely the one I needed to make one foot go in front of the other down those stairs towards the sales floor.

We stand outside the sales floor looking into the room. Around 50 people sitting at open desks. Approximately 6 sets of 8 desks lying around full of only two types of people. Hot Babes who're obviously using their looks to make sales, and Alpha males chilling out talking loudly into their phones pushing sales. Fabbbuuulous.

What I needed was a way in. Just then God decided to give me a hand.

The door opened and out walked HB Kiara not as hot as the others so some of the girls must rely on skill too and slipped through the beauty net. I smile, I ask her if this is the sales floor, I ask her name, I shake her hand, I tell her goodbye, I open the door to the office and I enter...allowing it to swing shut behind me.

The game is on.

I move up to the first desk.

AFC Adam: I'm so sorry to bother you, is Kiara here?
Random dude: I'm sorry you just missed her.
AFC Adam: Oh man typical, she probably went down to meet me, mind if I wait at her desk?
Random dude: No problem.

Game 1
Maxim office 0

I sit at the desk and open a random hot babe next to me.

AFC Adam: Hi there, are you one of those girls completely into her work or are you someone who would love an excuse to not do something for a while?
HB: Hahaha Yeah i'm waiting til the end of the day, and string at the internet til then
AFC Adam: Awesome I'm waiting for Kiara and she's taking forever.

We talk about life, about coffee shops, about other random stuff. I won't bore you with the details as this is all basic game you can read anywhere. Cut a long story short after 5 mins I have her number and a potential date at a coffee shop.

Game 2
Maxim office 0

However, this was NOT the challenge. The challenge was to get the HOTTEST girl in the room. I could see her from where I sat. A very stunning brunette, Los Angeles Make up, busy at the desk obviously trying to prove to the world she is more than just a pretty face. I'm sure she is too.

So I ask the girl I'm talking to what all the other desks do?

I find out that Super Hot chick is working on the desk that supplies sales for an international magazine. So I ask...

AFC Adam: So if I had a friend that wanted to advertise in an international magazine I would need to talk to...?
HB: Paula, just over there.
AFC Adam: Any chance of a DHV introduction so I can use you for pre-selection and make the set alot easier? (Ok I didn't add the game jargon in the actual set...but still you get the idea)
HB: No probs, Hi Paula this is Adam.

From this point on we have a quick chat, but I'm aware time is of the essence so I go for broke.

AFC Adam: Heya chick I have to make a move soon, but I'd really like to talk further about this and life and whatever, how about you and me do a work lunch, we get your office to pay for it, and we see what we can come up with together?
HB Paula: Sure thing, next wednesday 1pm any good for you?
AFC Adam: Done.

At that moment Kiara walks in, I stand up and leave the office with the biggest grin on my face, not before looking to Kiara and saying;

" Thank you so very much for absolutely everything, I wish you well chicka"

Anyway the entire article will be posted up in the UK maxim within the next 2-3 months or so. But you know they will completely omit the finer points of how to pull it off.

In summary,

Find a good reason to be wherever you are
Social Proof works EVERYWHERE
Get the day 2 under whatever means you have to, then run game in a more comfortable environment.

As always any questions just ask.

Wow. Well done.

booyah.


im not surprised.

Is it just me or did Maxim take a hugh nosedive about 6-7 years ago? It used to be OK early days when a UK only mag (along with FHM). I remember the first few years and there was some quality stuff in there.

Adam you are blending a lot of skills to make this happen. It does work in any situation and people (women esp.) are generally open to friendly banter and bullshit plus obviously d2, sex etc. once you get past the formals. You can literally get away with almost everything "common thinking" indicates you should be called out on. Intellegence is indeed well rewarded.

I have often wondered why a chamelion like ability to be comfortable and adapt to any situation is currently so beneficial for humans in this world. Is it really just that simple? You have to smile at life's finer points.

Haha, awesome as always. It's true social proof does work everywhere. I recently went to Nashville, where I met up with a couple of the PUAs there--and we went to a strip club, they told me their methods and who they thought was the best, and I talked about social proof & mentioned you.

PUA-Jake said he heard about you, that "his social circle game doesnt work when he's not in london"...and went on to talk about how great some other gurus are...

Sure, whatever... later when he was in set with the hottest girl there, and wasn't doing very well--as they were negotitating a lap dance *sigh*, I flew in after getting to know 15 different people at the strip club, including a girl I brought with me. I blew him out, teased her for awhile then ejected, and made goofy faces at her periodically the rest of the night...

He was very pissed "I don't know how you AMOGed me, but you did" and of course I got her number

Social proof is amazing.

yea social proof is amazing, also just having the balls for going through with a challenge =P nice work. The best pick up I ever pulled involved a full suit, at 9 pm at night, chasing down a jogger, who was wearing an ipod, lol. After that I think if someone asked me to do something like the office pickup I would be willing to give it a shot too =)

[AFC AdamLondon]

Cheers guys.

Yeah alomost everything is possible with the right amount of social proof.

A weirdo sharpening a knife in the corner of a party could freak people out.

Add two hot chicks laughing at his conversation and suddenly he's the chef.

Our perception of situations is influenced by the surroundings and external factors we see. Being sociable is attractive if only cos you aren't weird.

In London it's true I have massive social proof in any club I walk into, and some restaurants, before I even use any game.

However...

I also have this in Certain places in Dallas, LA and Chicago...

Though when you run game you can even pull it off in a post office or apparently a random office sales floor hahahahaha.

It's scary how well game works.
