    Kids copying me and messing up my tricks.

    If that were true, you would not feel like you have to convince us.

    Kids copying me and messing up my tricks.

    Sometimes, but often no, which, this time, IS what I've been saying for a while :P No, but I doubt it would be difficult to search via a description of many major card plots, which would then reveal some common methods and sleights in general, which your average magician will probably be...

    Kids copying me and messing up my tricks.

    I don't have the knowledge to express any opinion as eloquently or succinctly as baller or Steerpike so this will only be a short reply, but for what it's worth, I completely agree with them based on my experiences in my own life. When you're an interesting person, people come to you because...

    Sure thing - let me know if there's anything I can help with, I'd be glad to anytime :) Incidentally, talk also to D ICE R and Craig Browning (and Steerpike if you can find him) - they're the guys I'd go to for advice. In fact, I came on to send Craig a PM :)

    Smoke Applications

    Do you perform mentalism by any chance? I've thought of an application of the gimmick that I personally feel is stronger than anything provided or anything I've read around here, but it takes a specific type of performer to pull it off, which is why I haven't shared it publicly...

    Hey Toby, good to see you :) Yeah, I've popped on once or twice in the past week. I've actually just moved countries, and I'm now in the US for the next 5 months or so, hence the hiatus, amongst other things :) I started uni straight away so things have been a bit hectic, but I'll probably...

    Vector (Impromptu Haunted Deck)

    No worries. Congrats on your new release.

    What are your thoughts on this trick?

    Ok, honestly, I don't really like it for two main reasons. Firstly, the trick doesn't make sense. The procedure is long-winded, some of your actions don't really make sense and especially the four aces don't make sense. You wouldn't normally produce a rose as the climax of a three card monte...

    Vector (Impromptu Haunted Deck)

    I like both of your senses of style. Oh, right, the trick. Well, eh. If it works for you, I guess. There are cleaner versions that don't pop out like that, and dirtier versions that pop out a lot more convincingly. So yours, I think, looks like a middle ground. I think that at this point it's...

    How NOT To Get Tips

    This is heading slightly off topic, but I do think what these guys have said, which IS related to tipping, is fascinating. Indeed, us Aussies don't regularly tip as a rule. We sometimes do, but only in certain circumstances - it's not set in stone, even in the case of cafes and waitresses. But...

    Criticism!!!!

    Haha, Rev. That's funny. Ok, some comments: -Film it for real people. There were so many off things about that, chief amongst which were you covering the deck with one hand at the start, and the presentation with the die - is that a presentation? Is that a genuine choice? I'm not asking for...

    what is your favourite trick to do ?

    Depends on time/place/what I feel like. ACAAN and mental forces keep me on my toes. An effect where the spectator demonstrates photographic memory is a recent favourite for its general uplifting nature, as is an effect where you read your spectator's cat's mind for a moment of strange.

    What do you do for your opening trick?

    OP: Have you tried a personality? It's a miracle worker.

    The Revelation

    Basically posting to echo what Gerald has said. Please, if you have any respect for magic or mentalism, do not buy this. a) It is a complete ripoff of a Millard Longman move sold without permission. b) The hack in question has been warned several times, and lied about removing the product...

    A Quick Thought About Fast Improvements

    Hint: You're one of the people who missed the point. Nice post, Draven - I completely agree. On a mildly related topic, networking was a skill taught to me whilst I was very young, and I consider it one of my best attributes today. People make the world go round; associating with those that...

    Battle Me Newb A Bit

    Hi Casen, Sorry I've taken so long to get back to this.. I'll start by reiterating pretty much what Draven said above me - his points were pretty much spot on and I agree with what he said. Especially the part about the camera being annoyingly hard to follow due to background noise, poor...
