Your comment got me thinking about how the rules of this game should perhaps be refined a little to make it more effective.

If the object of the game is to learn how to feel comfortable being rejected by people then perhaps it's better to not include rejections that result from policy in your score.

For example, if you ask for a discount in a store and the clerk rejects you, they are just acting on store policy, not giving a personal reaction.

If you sell door to door the person who tells you to get lost is most likely rejecting what you are selling or rejecting the idea of being harassed by a salesman, rather than rejecting you personally.

I guess psychology doesn't work like this. People can get quite afraid of rejections, even if it's not personal.
