			== What it is ==
			A feedback loop: act, watch the [[IOI]]/[[IOD]] stream, change amplitude or change move. PUA Lingo described a training hack still used in journals: push a dimension (kino, cocky, talkative) to an extreme, then wind it back until it fits ''this'' woman in ''this'' venue.<ref name="lingo" />

			It is not "be yourself" and it is not "do more." "Be yourself" only works if you have built a self that can hold eye contact and leave. "Do more" without a read is [[over-gaming]] — the Cube, three DHV stories, and a kiss close on a woman who already wanted to change venues.

			== Method ==
			House defaults ([[Seduction Wiki:Point of view]]):

	~~== Examples ==~~
	* She looks at her phone on the open → shorten, add a [[false time constraint]], or leave. Do not tell a longer story.		* She looks at her phone on the open → shorten, add a [[false time constraint]], or leave. Do not tell a longer story.

			* She says no, clearly → you stop. Calibration includes hearing a no. [[Enthusiastic consent]] is a real page here.

			== Other schools ==
			'''Mystery-era.''' Calibration was how you knew when to move from A2 (female-to-male interest) to A3 ([[qualification (pickup)\|qualification]]) and when to bounce. The diagnostics ([[IOI]], [[IOD]], [[DHV]]/[[Demonstration of lower value\|DLV]]) are still the vocabulary.<ref name="mm" />

			'''RSD.''' "Congruence" and "state" as the calibration layer: if the inner picture does not match the words, she reads the mismatch. Useful as a diagnosis. Useless as an excuse to skip volume.

			'''London [[daygame]].''' Street calibration is faster and colder than club calibration. A stop that is not hooking in twenty seconds is usually over. The daygamer's takeaway is walking on.

	[[~~Chase Amante~~]]'s [[~~Newbie assignment~~]] is a ~~calibration syllabus dressed as homework~~.		== Failure mode ==
			* '''Script worship.''' Running the Cube because it is the Cube.
			* '''Waiting for IOIs to start.''' Chase's default, once the student can say hello, is [[direct game]]. Mystery-style "wait for an [[approach invitation]]" is a club tool.
			* '''Over-gaming.''' More moves after it already landed.
			* '''Under-gaming.''' Rapport with no spark because the student is terrified of a push.
			* '''Calibrating only her words.''' Body, friends, logistics, and whether you can actually leave matter more than a polite laugh.

'''Calibration''' is adjusting what you do to the person in front of you instead of running a script. Every pickup school uses the word. It is the skill that makes [[negging]], [[kino]], [[DHV]] stories, and [[direct game]] either land or crash.

== What it is not ==
It is not "be yourself" and it is not "do more." It is a feedback loop: act, watch the [[IOI]]/[[IOD]] stream, change amplitude or change move. PUA Lingo described a training hack still used in journals: push a dimension (kino, cocky, talkative) to an extreme, then wind it back until it fits ''this'' girl in ''this'' venue.

== Examples ==
* She looks at her phone on the open → shorten, add a [[false time constraint]], or leave. Do not tell a longer story.
* She is already touching you → skip the three-IOI wait.
* She is a 6 who is not armored with compliments → a Mystery-style neg reads as mean; tease lighter or not at all.
* [[Approach anxiety]] is flooding you → the assignment shrinks the ask ("hi" only) so you can calibrate the ''nervous system'' first.

[[Chase Amante]]'s [[Newbie assignment]] is a calibration syllabus dressed as homework.
