I have and I love it. I don't hate on anyone who uses the 1-10 but it doesn't suit me or my style of game at all. I'm a business major and in marketing classes the idea of branding is pounded into our heads. It's important to understand your "brand" of game so you can play to your strengths.
First, I started to notice in my circle of friends, there will inevitably be the guy who drools over and goes on and on about "that perfect dime across the bar, bro". Very rarely, in my experience, is that guy getting a lot of numbers. It is usually a classic blue-piller afraid of rejection, approaching, etc. (Not trying to hate, I was one of the biggest once upon a time).
Second, I feel like it gives women and even other men, too high of value and creates "leagues". It would psyche me out before even trying to approach an "9". Using the 0 or 1 scale helps take them off pedestal in a big way. That was crucial for me. My outer game has always been moderately decent, but you'd be hard pressed to find someone more pathetic when it came to pedestal placement back in the day.
Third, it helps me to consciously think in a way that makes me feel like I have more control over my life. I'm going against the grain. I'm defining my surroundings and not letting them define me. I was a SEVERE blue-piller in my teens. Very much a sheep. Did what I was told to do and worse.... thought was I was told think. Now that I have switched to a new paradigm, I take game principles more to heart. I'm so proud of the progress I've been making on my inner game even in just the last couple of months.
I'm optimistic about the future, being a guy just shy of 25. (From some of the older cats on here, that is when a lot of them really began to do some damage). My game will be in a great place when I get settled and start making some decent money.
I like to read up on Buddhism and much of my game now has been condensed to feeling, being in the present, etc. It's a NECESSITY for me to remove the numbers, the intellectualization, and all the rest of it. I began doing a lot more approaches and even felt my overall happiness level go up when I made the switch. It opened up the world that was previously closed. It was ruining my personal "brand" of game.
