Very much wanted the antecedent, but not that consequence, no.

I think your numbers are too hopeful. And I mean that.

I live in Los Angeles County, with a population of 10.1M. I usually scope my results to a 25 mile radius.

When I search on OKC, it will only show me "15 profiles" at a time. You have to click "load more". I CAN make it to the end of the list. I would say, there are less than 300 women's profiles at any given time, if you scope the results to say "only show me heterosexual women who have logged on in the last week" (because who wants to bother looking at stale archived ghost profiles from users who haven't logged on in a year?)

Maybe 4+ years ago, OKC would tell you the numerical count of your search results. When they went to a more "tile" rather than "icon" user interface, they hid the results count (another reason why Windows 8 and IOS and Android made us all more stupid).

There was a blog page I found, of a CEO of a tech startup who did create a data-driven, anti-romantic, douchebag method to game the system. His method is worthy of suppression/censorship, but I do see how it would work.


For you, I recommend a more conventional method to game the system. Here is a relevant Ted Talk:
