Going To The Hole

The number to beat was twenty thousand: That's how many partners basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain claimed to have had sex with during his 63-year lifetime.

It's also the record that Six, the preternaturally erotic android who was made famous by her sexually charged performance in the 2000 short film Tripping the Rift, set out to break.

It took her less than two years.

"It began as a joke," she admits. "I was at a science-fiction convention plugging the film when a fan asked me if I'd had as many partners as Wilt Chamberlain. I laughed, then I said I was going to break his record. Well, I should've realized where I was before I said that, because ten minutes later I had a line stretching from the backstage green room to the convention-center parking lot."

Six's casual slip of the tongue proved fortuitous. "Two days later, after the convention ended, I realized I was actually well on my way to challenging Chamberlain's record. So I figured, 'What the hell, let's give it a go.'"

Six had to meet strict requirements in order to ensure that her couplings would be accepted by Guinness World Records as appropriate for comparison to Chamberlain's conquests. "The first rule was that all my partners had to be sentient," she says. "No inanimate objects, no automatons and no animals all of which I wish I had been told before that Shriners convention in Pittsburgh. God, what a fiasco."

Even saddled with such strict limitations, Six had little difficulty attracting people who were willing to help push her toward the record. Unfortunately, another setback soon became apparent many of her partners had been double- or triple-counted as they followed her from one marathon event to the next.

"It was flattering, but it also made me mad," she says. "I was nearly a year into the effort and I was closing in on twenty thousand partners. Then the truth about the triple-dippers came out, and I had to revise the number of partners down to just under twelve thousand. It was a terrible disappointment."

Forging ahead like the showbiz professional she is, Six developed a computerized tracking system to record all her partners' Social Security numbers, and she hired an independent auditing firm to verify her totals on a monthly basis. Soon afterward, she smashed Chamberlain's record once and for all.

"Once I got organized, I was able to schedule six 10-minute, five-partner appointments an hour and do more than two hundred people a day," she explains. "Working eight hours a day, five days a week, and taking two weeks of vacation for the holidays, I was able to pleasure nearly sixty thousand men and women in a year."

Sadly, the benefits of her work ethic were soon undone by the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. "I was closing in on my personal-best milestone of 150,000 when the guys from Film Roman called and picked up the series option on my contract for Tripping the Rift. ... Jesus, talk about bad timing."

Although Six is now back on the set instead of set on her back, she isn't afraid of anyone challenging her record. "I did sixty thousand a year without breaking a sweat," she boasts, "I could have done more, but my programming instructs me to let my partners enjoy themselves and not coax them to finish too quickly. I give all my partners at least ten minutes, but I could finish them in less than one if I wanted to."

Then, with a lustful smirk she adds, "But why would I want to?"
