Now that all the stupid drama has cooled down. I want some honest opinions. Who truely is the G.O.A.T?
Wise words my man. Wise wordsI am Erdnase. Bow before me.
It doesn't matter who is what. The only thing that matters is that you are the best at what you do. Quit living as if you are in the shadow of others. Start performing like you're the one casting all the shadows.
Erdnase wasn't a single person. Clearly the book was written by at least two people, if not more. One of the authors was obviously a card cheat, and the other a magician.
Interesting theory. I've always thought it was one person -- either a magician who wants to gain credibility as portraying himself as a card cheat (which is the more likely scenario becasue many of the card cheating slights wouldn't work in a game) or a card cheat who added magic tricks to make the book more able to be sold (which I think is what is claimed in the book).
Wouldn't it be cool to have a movie "Erdnase", which like "Rashimon", shows the different possible truths. OK, I don't make films, but if I did they'd have a Samurai. (See what I did there?)
Yeah, I called BS when I heard that theory as well but then it was pointed out to me that the writing style shifts mid way. And it made sense. There really should be a movie about it. It's got mystery, intrigue, and you could do a LOT with it.

Everything he tried? No. Everything he did. Yes. There'sa difference.How about I become completely mad and say, Daily Vernon?
Honestly I feel the professor was good at everything he tried.
