never chase more than 9 profiles

Lol. It's basically like almost any matchmaking system in a video game where peeps get thrown into tiers and served other similarly tiered peeps. How this makes sense is beyond me since almost every woman on tinder gets max swipe rights, super this, ultra that, blah blah blah while men get 1-3 swipe rights a week, if that (unless they're extremely attractive of course)
