A singleton revealed her and her pals' ruthless system for rating men using their stars and strikes method.

She uploaded a video showing their "s*** list" wall, featuring the names of a dozen men.

She shared their method to her TikTok account jenna.brue, saying: "Ladies take notes."

Jenna explains exactly how their intricate system operates, which uses colourful post-it notes.

She said: "So how it works is any guy who has potential love interest with one of us comes on the wall and gets his name up there.

"Any time he does something bad he gets a strike as you can see there's multiple strikes. You also get a star if you do something good. And you can erase one strike by getting five stars.

"But as you see we have a couple of these highlighted strikes. Those highlighted strikes means they really did something bad and these can never be removed no matter how many stars a person has.

"Three strikes and the person is out of our lives, as you can tell. But their strike list still goes on. They can potentially remove strikes as I said by getting more and more stars.

"For example as this person has a lot of strikes he'd have to get five, 10, 15 and 20 stars to remove himself back to one strike. As I said again these strikes with the highlighted mark can never be removed."

She gestures towards two men who are seemingly out of the running to score a date with one of the girls, with one man racking up an impressive four strikes and one highlighted strike.

While another potential suitor has three strikes and one highlighted strike, as Jenna added they write down the strike reasons on the back of the post-it.

After sharing their rating system online, Jenna simply adds: "Good luck boys."

Their "three strike method" has been watched more than 26 million times, with women commenting over the overall lack of stars on the wall.

TikToker Ashley Alvarez said: "Lmao I love the investment in this, and the quality control voice."

Another, called Victoria, wrote: "Way to keep each other accountable to realize what they have and haven't done."

Karleigh Lopez noted: "I'm not seeing a lot of stars boys."

And Arianna Tong was impressed, commenting: "Wow this is project management at its finest."

While Christa added: "Now this is a system I can get behind."
