Not much better than meeting strangers (potential con artists or "gold diggers") in a bar with much less time to talk and a "lighter wallet". Most of the women were drunk by the time I got to talk with them.

No one seemed to be prepared (including the event host) or ask the important questions. Some broke the rules.

Many times, only one person would get their questions answered while the other would learn absolutely nothing about you. A few minutes just isn't enough time.

Only later did I realize I had to spend time creating a ridiculous "profile" and answer all those stupid questions with "That's for me to know and you to find out". Not worth the time and trouble.
