What I dont understand:
1. If I remember the journal right, Chaos is a man with lots of sexual experience
2. Guess therefore you could also say he has to be a decent to good seducer?
3. As host of the event he had authority bonus
4. Both he and the girl got stoned (-> disinhibition of both of them)
5. He is trained in martial arts and I guess therefore has got a good physique
Everybodys conclusion: DMSI works.
Well... how to put it mildly. I dont get that conclusion. Does any of you see a chance that this could also have happened without DMSI ?
Yes. I do have sexual experience. That's why I can safely and logically conclude that this weekend's experience is the direct result of DMSI's influence. There's a number of reasons why. 4Kingdoms touched on most of them. The biggest being -- that I've never had the confidence to approach an 8 and talk to her as casually as I was. Second, I've NEVER been approached and seduced by a lithe, blonde 8 carrying a $5000 designer handbag.
From a pure social status standpoint, she was way "out of my league." That means DMSI was boosting my status signal to crazy high levels.
As for you comment about being the host. I was NOT the host. I was one of the 4 partners that organized the event. Out of the 4 partners, I'm the least visible because prefer to be the "mastermind behind the scenes," so I opted not to have my face on banners and stuff. Only those who know my partners knew my involvement. Now given, yes I did have quite a status boost when I told people that I'm [x] partner. However, not enough to sway someone of her social stature.
I will agree with you about being stoned, though. I thought of that last night. The particular strain we smoked is designed to actually slow down your thought processes and send you into a state of extreme calmness and relaxation. It was at that point that the autopilot was able to function on a very efficient level. That tells me that I still need much healing to do in order to get out of my own way.
As for physique -- it's not as great as you think. People can tell that I'm in shape. I have broad, sloping shoulders, decent biceps and very defined forearms, but I also carry belly fat. So, no one looks at me and goes, OMG LOOK AT THIS ADONIS. AM6 and DMSI has given me some killer body language and presence, though.
So yeah, if you want to be skeptical and cheat yourself out of an amazing experience, by all means, go ahead. But, you're going to miss out. For $114.95, you can experience what it feels like to be a minor celebrity -- and Shannon says he's pumping it up in v3. Let me tell you how good I feel about DMSI. Even if v3 doesn't meet the design goal as Shannon intended, I'm STILL not asking for a refund. I've received so much value from the versions I got (and I purchased v1 on launch day, so I have them all except v2.1... didn't download that for some reason) that I cannot make the internal justification to ask for one.
People pay thousands and thousands of dollars in therapy and spend years trying to get over minor problems. Between AM6 and DMSI -- about 15 months of investment, I've become a whole new person.
We all gotta walk our own paths... but brother, with that kind of skepticism, you're taking the one full of needless obstacles.
