Guys in the largest computer club at Washington State University are in need of a date. So much, in fact, that they're holding a nerd auction.

huh I remember when I was entered into a Bishi Auction at an anime convention, I went for 200.00 and thats not bad considering most people at an anime convention are broke lol luckily the person that won me was exceptionally cute and we ended up dating for a year and then she ran my heart threw a paper shredder but hey there are more fish in the sea ^_^

LOL good for these guys!

uh... Bishi? lol

...wow, I'm amazed at how big this story is getting. I'm a Computer Science student at WSU, and the last I head of the project, it was an idea being bounced around by a half-dozen guys. I never thought I'd be seeing it on the front page of Bit-Tech.

That said, I'm now considering joining...

i can't decide whether this is lame or awesome... then again, I don't go to WSU, otherwise I might have more of an opinion

Its not hard to pick up women. Just don't lie, b.s., or make yourself out to be something you are not. Look them in they eye when you talk and have an interest in what they say or at least look like it. Follow this advice and anybody can pick up a woman. It also helps by asking every woman you come across, nothing wrong with playing the odds.
