Lizards Rule The World – Page 2 – A collection of utter garbage

As a on-and-off user of this particular form of social masochism, it’s clear that there is an optimal strategy, which is to like absolutely everybody indiscriminately, save your SuperLikes for people who really stand out, and then actually make a judgement on if this is the sort of person you’d be interested in if you do match with them. Of course this strategy suffers from a potential Tragedy of the Commons (although worst case is everyone follows this strategy and matches with everyone else), and requires a premium option (as Likes can’t be a limited resource).

Recently, Tinder released a web version of their site, which got me thinking about ways to automate this pretty simple strategy. I spent about half an hour writing this little script, which does the following:

Checks the user for a bio
- If no bio is found, we either like or dislike, depending on preference.
Checks the bio against several positive and negative keywords
- If a positive keyword is found, we attempt to superlike the user
- If a negative keyword is found, we dislike the user
If no positive or negative keywords are found, we like the user

Pretty simple, pretty easy. Find the JS below. To use, run it in the console of Tinder.com while you’re signed in, and leave it for however long you want. Enjoy your matches! Or getting banned.

Future possible improvements:
