signed up. Everyone who receives this WILL receive the final draft
when the service is up and running.
STATUS REPORT on electronic matching service.
I was about to launch this service when I started to get trouble
from the site that I was going to use. The trouble was that the
site wanted to drastically change the content of the questionnaire,
even going so far as to exclude certain groups of people from
being allowed to use it. I really wish I knew about the site's
objections earlier. Therefore, I need a new site ASAP. I believe
that I have found one, but if you are interested in being my site
or know someone who would, please send me e-mail ASAP.
I also wouldn't mind any programming offers, although I think that
I am all set here.
Following is the latest draft of the questionnaire. I am still
taking comments on it:
DRAFT 6.10
DO NOT FILL IT OUT as this is NOT the final draft. Send comments to
eric_s...@cup.portal.com.
Traditional methods of courting and flirting are risky generally to
both men and women. Not only are they risky, but they are
ineffective. I know many, many people who have had serious problems
using the traditional dating methods. This service is intended to
improve people's lives by providing better marital and relationship
matches. Ideally, it will result in fewer divorces and fewer single
parent homes thanks to these superior matches.
This document contains:
* An introduction to the service
* How to fill out the questionnaire
* Technical details about the service
* The questionnaire
There are no charges at all for using the service. Whether you have
just submitted a questionnaire, have received a bad date, or have
received a great date, you are not required to send any money. Of
course, donations will be gladly accepted if you have a great date. I
have looked into the history of dating services and most fail for the
same reason: Not enough people. I believe that the best way to get a
lot of applicants is to offer a free service. For example, a service
based in Las Vegas has a detailed questionnaire, but they charge $9995
for a worldwide search. This simply can't attract as many people as my
charge of nothing for a world-wide search.

"Cyberspace. A consensual hallucination experienced daily by billions of
legitimate operators, in every nation, by children being taught
mathematical concepts... A graphic representation of data abstracted from
the banks of every computer in the human system. Unthinkable complexity.
Lines of light ranged in the nonspace of the mind, clusters and
constellations of data. Last city lights, receding..."
Quote is from Neuromancer by William Gibson copyright 1984.
Welcome to Electronic Matchmaker (tm), a matchmaker service based in
cyberspace. In William Gibson's classic book, cyberspace was a form of
virtual reality for interacting with databases and individuals across
the world. With the millions of people connected to Usenet through
Bitnet, CompuServe, or other services, cyberspace is being built today.
While it may consist of mostly just text and be two dimensional, it is
a primitive form of cyberspace and it is available today. Without this
cyberspace, I couldn't possibly think about offering my service for
free. On cyberspace, your cost of advertising is zero and, more
importantly, you can have an AI (program) handle most of the work,
reducing overhead to nearly zero.
At this point I am planning to mail questionnaires as they are
requested, then process the questionnaires through an AI and finally
send e-mail to people after I have found a potential match for them. I
am working on creating a listserver that can:
* Send questionnaires to people who request them.
* Process questionnaires and send error messages if they are
filled out incorrectly.
* Give people e-mail addresses of potential matches until they
ask the listserver to stop.
I plan to post weekly messages like the following to alt.personals:
Number of new entries this week: men women
Total number of entries of men, women, and number per country.
Number of matches sent out this week
Number of people requesting removal from database:
Reason: dating, dissatisfied, loss of e-mail access, unknown
**********************************************************************
The current number of MEN signed up is 402, the number of WOMEN signed
up is 206 for a total of 608 people.
**********************************************************************
In each of the following rating questions:
1) Specify your own attributes by replacing the dash in the appropriate
selection in the SELF column with an X. Use multiple Xs for SELF
where appropriate.
2) Specify whether you wish this attribute in your DESIRED MATCH
by placing a (Y)es, (M)aybe, or (N)o in place of the dash for each
appropriate attribute.
3) Leaving the dash in the DESIRED MATCH column means (M)aybe. If
you don't care about a question, just leave the entire DESIRED
MATCH column blank.
4) For increased precision you may answer (A)bsolutely must match,
(Y)es - want match, (P)refer such a match, (M)aybe,
(T)olerate such a match, (N)o - don't want match, (R)efuse anyone
with this attribute. If you can't remember all these letters, you
may answer with an answer of 1-7 with 1=R, 2=N, 3=T, 4=M, 5=P, 6=Y,
and 7=A.
5) If you use the simple Y/M/N method on some questions you may still
chose to use the more precise A/P/L/M/T/N/R on other questions. I
would highly recommend that you use the "A" and "R" options in the
gender and orientation question.
EXAMPLE:
ROMANCE
SELF DESIRED MATCH
_ Do something romantic every day Y
X Do something romantic every week Y
_ Do romantic things out of the blue Y
(spontaneously)
_ Do something romantic every month _
_ Romantic just on special occasions N
_ Romanticism does not appeal to me R
This is a person who does something romantic every week. She
wants to meet someone who "Y"es does something romantic every
day or every week or spontaneously. She "M"aybe wants someone
who does something romantic every month. She "N"o - doesn't want
someone who is romantic just on special occassions. She "R"efuses
to be matched with someone who is not interested in romanticism.
ALGORITHM
The matching algorithm first looks at rate of agreement on DESIRED
MATCH choices that have been rated "A" for absolutely must match and
"R" for refuse anyone with this attribute. If there is still a match
after checking these two possiblities, then choices that have been
marked "N" for no - don't want match and "Y" for yes - want match are
compared. The algorithm will stop here unless there are a lot of
potential matches left, in which case choices that have been marked
"L" for like such a match and "T" for tolerate such a match are compared
as well.
The rate of agreement on matching is checked for both people. If A
matches very well with B, the algorithm still checks to make sure that
B matches very well with A.
After you have sent in your questionnaire, you will receive a report
like the following:
Of the 52,421 men on the system
1 matched your criteria 90%
25 matched your criteria 60 - 89 %
425 matched your criteria 20 - 59 %
15,149 matched your criteria 5 - 19 %
You can then reply with choices like the following:
SHOW TOP 10 or SHOW TOP 5 or SHOW TOP 1
MULTIPLE PURPOSE
If you want several types of contacts such as:
* somebody to meet close
* a pen pal far away
* someone to visit for a holiday not too far from home
Just check multiple SELF Xs. No need to submit multiple applications.
CHANGED MIND
If you change your mind about how you wish to answer a question, you
can resubmit a new questionnaire. You don't have to flag the
questionnaire as a resubmital.
SEXUAL COMPATIBILITY
These questions have been moved to the end of the questionnaire so
people who don't want to answer them don't have to read them either.
COMMENTS
Don't include comments scattered throughout the form. If you want to
include comments, write them at the end of this questionnaire in the
section entitled, COMMENTS THAT YOU WANT YOUR MATCH TO SEE.
PRIVACY
All initial contacts between matches will be done by e-mail. If you want
your contact to be totally anonymous, send e-mail to pi...@cupid.sai.com.
You will be given an e-mail address like ap....@cupid.sai.com. Enter
this e-mail address in the general information section at the end of this
application. You may even hide your e-mail address from Electronic
Matchmaker(tm) by sending e-mail to ap....@cupid.sai.com instead of
eric_s...@cup.portal.com.
Note that all answers are confidential. Not only will they not be
distributed to any persons or companies, but they will not be sent to
your match. I feel that people will answer more honestly if they know
that their matches will not be reading all of their answers! Note that
the optional comments that you may enter at the end of the
questionnaire will be sent to your match, unlike your answers.
Please remember that the three choices in the RATING column are for
what you want in a match; these choices have nothing to do with your
SELF column. The three choices effect your DESIRED MATCH column.

-GENERAL QUESTIONS
LIMIT OF PEOPLE YOU WANT EM TO GIVE YOUR ADDRESS TO
If you have very popular characteristics, you could conceivably be
matched with tens of thousands of people who would then contact you
after being told then you match with them.
You can raise or lower this limit by sending the command LIMIT 10 to
e...@lemuria.sai.com if you wanted to limit the number to 10. If this
limit is reset, then Electronic Matchmaker(tm) will allow that many
MORE people to contact you.

One cupid arrow is given to you for each woman that you get to sign up.
Monthly prizes will be given to the people who accumulate the most cupid
arrows that month. This promotion is to help reduce the male/female
imbalance which hurts both hetrosexual men and lesbians.
You must fill in all questions in the General Information area with the
exception of the optional fields. I need your city, state, and zipcode
so I can see how close you are to other people. The last four digits of
a full nine digit US zipcode are optional. I need your birth date to
determine your age, and your e-mail address so people can contact you.
I need a password in case you want access to your private information.
Please create a unique password that you have never used before. With
your password you can:
* Request that copies of your answers be sent to you
* Request that copies of your answers be sent to someone else.
* Request that you be removed from the Electronic Matchmaker(tm)
database.
In case 2, a confirmation statement would be sent to your address. Birth
date will be asked along with password in all cases for a second layer of
protection.
If you want to be real generous you can even send donations before the
service is up and running. EM Headquarters are based at Eric Klien,
8124 Bridlepath Way, Las Vegas, NV 89128.

until later in the relationship.
* You have insufficient sexual experience to answer them.
* You just don't like to answer such personal questions.
* ANSWERING THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS IS OPTIONAL! *
* THESE QUESTIONS WILL GET PROGRESSIVELY MORE PERSONAL *
