I prefer Natural game so i just improvise loads cos canned material doesn't feel right with me, to paraphrase mystery "attraction is about creating an attractive lifestyle" and these are the basis of my game......

1. The Game by Neill Strauss - A classic and great introduction to build from, basically brought me to where i am now and if you analyse Styles personality you can get some pretty advance concepts out of it...

Isn't copying personality what you want to avoid? You don't want to be a social robot, and that is the whole second half of the book. Your personality should come from within, it isn't something you copy. Style's witty and sarcastic personality is what made him a writer, he had that before he ever learned about pick up...and as he says he was no natural. It was not anything he made, and is not what you should be looking at.

Anyways my 3 would be.

Magic Bullets...Savoy-I never realized how much it influenced me until I realized I had read half of it for free online. I then grabbed a full free version and begin to dig in. So far so good.

The Game...I love it, if nothing else than for the story. It gives a solid overview of seduction, heavily influenced by the Mystery Method but examples of everything.

Get Anyone To Do Anything...its a psychology book and I have never been able to make it through it. However the few sections and rules I did learn always pop into my head in my post game analysis. For that reason it is very influential in my game.

the game, cybernetics, natural game-gambler, 48 laws of power, love systems routines manual, adam lyons principles of attraction too many good ones

I'm pretty much in the same boat as most of you but when I question myself and why I may be doing this or if I think I'm being too negative or that I'm going a tad crazy lol I go into my room, into my closet, open a box and pull out probably my most influencial non-pick up related novel

THE CATCHER IN THE RYE

This probably the single greatest fiction I've ever read because I learn so much from it and when I started out in these communities I was a pissy little shadow who hated everyones success. But then I read this book as a project in my english class and it helped me learn alot about myself and now it's not too hard to put on a smile. Deffinitly should be picked up by anyone who's looking for enlightment, maturity or if you think you've hit a road block.

P.S. this is just how much it helps me, I advise the read but I'm not certain on how much influence it will have on everyone

The Game was very helpful and the ending really gave me hope in man kind

and third would be deffinitly swingcat's real world seduction because it's also very helpful

I suggest you pick up a book called "The Tale of Scrotie McBooger Balls". It is truly literary genius!
