I just voted for you... great show by the way. I was really excited when I saw the pre-view for the first season. I recognized Mystery from a book that I read that he was a main character in. Good Luck! I hope you make it on the show.

Oh really? What book was it?

I have a great announcement today.

I'm in the top 20! This is important because they will be selecting their candidates from the top 20 when this casting period is finished. And thanks to everyone here, I may just maintain that position and get on the show so thank you!

Hey everybody, round 2 is starting tomorrow finally, and the dates have changed a bit. The entire casting call is now done on the 11th, instead of the 25th. That's only 8 days away, and I have to maintain my standing in the top 20! (I'm 19 right now).

So keep the votes coming and let's cross our fingers!

*Important news*

I really need your support to get me on the Pick Up Artist. They are clearing the votes tomorrow (the 8th) for Round 3 and starting everybody from scratch (zero). The voting will end on May 10th, so I only have the 8th, 9th, and 10th to get as many votes as possible.

Help me get on the show by giving me a vote each of those three days! If you have time, watch my Round 2 video and Round 3 video which should be approved by tomorrow.

It was called "The Game" by Neil Strauss. Here is a link to the Wiki page about it.

This is the second to last day! Make it count by giving me a vote. I don't like spamming the forum, but when you want something so bad, you throw caution to the wind and follow your impulses. And my impulse is to win one of those 7 to 9 spots on the show!

Tomorrow will be the last day for voting.

Thanks for everyone who has voted and responded to this topic! I don't get email notification of replies for some reason, so I didn't know anybody had said anything! I'll check out the book suggested if I don't get on the show for sure!

My final message about the Pick Up Artist show...

I didn't end up getting chosen to be on the show. No biggie. I put a lot of time and effort forth, but I'm not bitter or hurt by it.

Here is what came in my email today:
"Thanks for checking in with me. They actually have selected all of the finalist as of last Friday, I'm sorry they did not pick you as a finalist. I will definitely keep your tape and info on file so I can possibly consider you for further shows. Thank you for all of your dedication to the show and getting all of your stuff in to us and participating with the online contest! "

It would have been fun to be on there, and it would have been a great learning experience, but I probably wasn't enough of a "character" to be on the show. I'm an interesting guy, but not a wacky character like one of the guys from the site that I heard got chosen:
http://pickupartist2casting.com/people/HipsterinOwsso

I'm not sure who else filled the remaining spots.

Thank you all for your support. It means a lot to me that people would go out of their way to help me, when several of you don't even know me very well if at all.

If any of you would like to comment, please do. I sometimes feel like I'm preaching to a nearly empty audience lol.
