I made a Board Game Tinder Profile

[@oil3]

Oh… reading that title I thought you made a profile FOR A board game. Like some kind of wild RP pretending to be Pandemic or Agricola. 😂. Solid vid, as always!

[@AdvayBasavaraju]

LOL i'd love to see that tbh. Can't imagine the cheesy puns that would come out of that

[@biyukun]

I thought that, too! Agricola's profile would probably be like a "ALWAYS KEEP GRINDING"/entrepreneur profile.

I once took a girl I met on Tinder to a board meeting. It was our first in-person meeting (we lived in different cities). Eight years have passed and now she is my wife and the mother of my child. So it works :D

[@Towerofheaven]

The disclaimer destroys the entire idea to see how successful it actually is. The concept was really fun though, but you forget the influence of status.

[@branboom3342]

Yeah I dont get the point of this: was it to honestly try to find someone to date that has the same interests, i.e. board games, or was it to find a platonic gaming person/group? If the former, it didnt seem like any honest effort was put in; if the latter, there are better ways to find a gaming group

[@Shelfside]

yep, for this Pranav and I didn't want to lead people on unintentionally. The concept was mad fun though! -AShton

[@ltb69]

​@branboom3342 leave it to some board gamer in the youtube comments to way overthink things. Obviously they don't think this is the best way to get a group 🙄 It was done for fun. You know, the reason we play games in the first place?

[@wayner396]

Get some of that sweet Pranav-graphy

[@AdvayBasavaraju]

[@VeraDeVera]

This is hilarious. Many of us in the hobby bemoan, “I wish I could play more if only my partner liked games as much as I do.” And fun fact, I did meet my partner (3 years strong) on Tinder. I mentioned that tabletop board gaming was super important to me and screened people based on how they answered “Do you have a D20?” Our first date was at Victory Point Cafe, a board gaming cafe in Berkeley, and I taught him Planetarium. He taught me “Feed the Shoggoth.” The rest is history.

[@Shelfside]

awesome! Thanks for sharing. I've been to Victory point cafe too, its a really nice place! -ashton

[@qmurec]

Is this what Pranav is doing instead of building the next boardgame table? This is horrible!

[@mr.hufflebottom]

✨ Pranav the Board Gaming Rizzler™ ✨

[@cloudsRniceC0M3]

this channel deserves way more views/subs quality, editing, content is A+ hopefully a clickbait title/thumbnail +video like this gets you some attention cause this channel WILL snowball if it gets some traction! keep up the good work!

[@Shelfside]

thank you! more stuff coming as always :D -Ashton

[@Snipfragueur]

Oh, I thought it was a board game about a dating app

[@JunyanLiu-g2k]

I honestly think board game is the best way for me to socialize with new people for being a huge introvert.

[@dago6410]

Of course if I went on a date wirh someone, if they played board games, even if they had wildly different board gaming taste than me, i would immediately Fall in love lol

[@PsychicLord]

What was the ratio between genders? 4 x female, 4 x male, or somewhere in-between?

[@smoogums89]

You are a strange creator.

[@st0ox]

I got zero matches regardless of how much board games I put into my profiles, but I had much more fun with my board game profiles.

[@DarylleJohnson]

Lmao I have had a board game dating profile for 3 years. It helps me sell my games 😂😂😂

[@Shelfside]

well played! -Ashton

[@royalsapphire1196]

Dang the experiment failed because Pranav was too sexy

[@Shelfside]

agreed, I think he carries this experiment a little too hard -Ashton

[@jorisweyen7934]

Height is so damn important on dating apps. Why? Why?!

[@Shelfside]

i hate it and I'm decently tall for my ethnicity -Ashton

[@biyukun]

My first date with my boyfriend ended with playing Fox in the Forest while we enjoyed some crab rangoon--genuinely could not have planned a more pleasant first date.

[@DayKlight]

in Copenhagen, board game stores are full of people. they really enjoy board games there, youd have more luck there^^

[@TheAush22]

I’ve mentioned board games in dating profiles before, but I think you’ve got the right idea about leaning in in almost a self-parody kind of way 😂 That fish picture is 👌🏻

[@mistuhbear]

To be fair - can you really claim "inappropriate horniness" when you're hitting em with the tasteful crop? ;) Also the fish one is legitimately incredible. Nice work Ashton LOL

[@Shelfside]

hahhaa, its a classic pic for the ages -Ashton

[@Marc-gj9vx]

The results mentioned are completely unrealistic on Tinder for a man. Either they are lying or they forgot to mention that this was "man looking for men" results. Women would never send such high volume of inappropriate messages, and he wouldn't get so many matches. Was this experiment done in the man-man section of the app?

[@ZandoFox]

They did mention that the dating profile was open to both men and women

[@Marc-gj9vx]

​@@ZandoFox but they don't mention what percentage of the match are women. So it was probably mostly all men.

[@nathalievazquez4708]

Wait, are you really an ex NASA photographer?

[@Shelfside]

hahhaa, yep -Ashton

[@MirkoCano]

Hahaha! Genious!😂

[@davidk6269]

I'd swipe right. ; )

[@anonmisfit]

i barely know any games beside catan and not only know of but physically and digitally bought gloomhaven, jaws, frosthaven and much more 😄

[@imnottellingyoumyname3050]

"Thought you couldn't get LESS Tinder matches than you do now? Well guess what; you can! And here's how!"

[@Wealtharch]

This video was amazing! Looking forward to more.
