In the name of curiosity (and procrastination [8|]) i ran two searches on CM: Male submissives in South Carolina seeking Dominant Women, and Dominant Women in South Carolina seeking male submissives. South Carolina being a state of 4.3 million or so people.

Submissive men who had logged on to the site in the past three days: 88.
Dominant Women who had logged on to the site in the past three days: 27

Of those 27, five were pros (with cap/boldface/repeated references to their lack of interest in non-paying subs); 1 did not mention being a pro but did mention money at least twice in her profile, 2 seemed to have found submissives but not updated their "looking for", 4 had totally blank profiles, and one was "back in her home country"

So, if one were to strike the pros, the person who is overseas, and one of the "already got mine"'s, we get a nice even 20 available Dommes who are looking at the site regularly as defined by me. (the "freshness" drops off sharply- with 25 profiles per page, profiles at the bottom of page 2 are still waiting to open their Christmas presents!)

With SC having roughly 1.4% of the U.S. population of 300 million, that extrapolates to about 1428 Dommes nationwide (i'll round down the remaining .57 of a Domme for not being "twue" enough).

If it takes about 15 seconds to select a profile, paste in a message, and click "send" (not sure how long the processing takes, since i didn't actually send it) when the site is running at full steam, that would shake out to about six hours to spam all available Dommes. (the select/paste/click actually took less than ten seconds, but i rolled it up to 15 to account for processing time and the new page load every 25 entries)

Of course, operating at that pace, there's no time for weeding anyone out, so we'd have to put our 500 "unavailable" Dommes back in, for two more hours, so now you have to devote a full work day to wooing.

But still, what's 8 hours compared to a lifetime of love? Exactly.

So, in conclusion, if you want to cut down on the amount of form letters you receive, the solution is simple:

Start recruiting all your female friends to join you in the sisterhood of Female Dominance [:)]

Well, it's interesting, though I highly doubt that recruiting efforts will even the numbers out any.  It also sounds like a bad tactic, since increased numbers wouldn't necessarily decrease the number of form letters sent.  It seems there would just be more form letters to send, and a higher chance of hitting something with the buckshot approach.
