This might be the wrong sub to talk about any kind of 'technical' game, but whatever

I was reading on a different sub earlier where someone was telling a different poster that his game was too much of a 'mix' of styles

He wasn't being direct (opening by showing sexual interest in the girl like telling her she's cute or whatever)

He wasn't running classic 'indirect game' where he hides his intent and pretends to not be interested in her by disqualifying here etc until she starts to show interest, at which point he shows intent back and escalates

He was instead opening fairly indirect like with an observational opener and then after a while, once he could tell she was at least comfortable (if not necessarily sexually attracted) he would show some intent with a compliment or telling her she's hot or whatever

Is that style of, shall we say, 'delayed direct' one that anyone here uses?
