The newest, “must-have” for all you online gamers has finally arrived! The Ultimate Flirting Championship is a live widget sponsored by Extreme Style VO5, and is probably the closest thing to flirting that you socially awkward, cyber geeks will ever experience so be sure to go check it out!

As open-minded as I am, or at least try to be, this is one thing I will never understand.  Who in their right mind would want to waste their time playing a game of “virtual flirting”? Not only is the widget not the least bit amusing or entertaining, it doesn’t even serve its one intended purpose— to help players improve their flirting skills/technique to be named the Ultimate Flirt. This has to be a joke… Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but typing sentences on a computer to randoms over the internet is NOT flirting, and NO, it never will be, geeks….

So, this is how it works….When you first sign on, the widget will ask you for your user name, birthday, and gender, and while it is supposed to also give you the option of choosing whether you want to play as the judge or the flirter, I was automatically assigned the role of the judge whenever I played. The game consists of a judge asking questions to competing flirters who respond with their most flirtatious, charming answers. The judge then selects a winner at the end of each round and after the five total questions are asked, he/she will select the flirting champ, aka the Ultimate Flirt, based on their responses.

Yeah, I know what you’re thinking…This sounds like the stupidest, most pathetic thing you’ve ever heard and I can assure you that playing it is even worse than it sounds, if that’s even possible. Knock yourself out kids!
