    When the spectator makes an honest mistake...

    I have the spectator remove the card themselves, by actually giving them the deck and allowing them to remove it. They usually remember it that way, but just to be safe, I usually have them sign it.

    Being More Dedicated

    Very interesting point you have there, Ben. My story is similar to that of Zach's, I am being forced to focus on many things. My magic is what I want to do, but my teachers are bombarding me with hours of homework and studying every night. The Army is contacting me relentlessly, telling me to...

    A deck of cards - Hard to get?

    Ah, this happens to me all of the time. I think mainly for my parents, its just the clutter that builds up in my "workspace" (which is used for practicing card tricks, flourishes, and doing homework). In their opinion, it is a wreck; but to me, it is perfect - I know where everything is and I...

    Wayne Houchin Working with Ellusionist Again?

    Looks interesting, and he hasn't released anything with E for quite a while now, so I guess that's somewhat understandable. Hopefully we'll get some more info in the next preview.

    Definition of Disgrace to Magic?

    My personal definition of a disgrace to magic is of someone who is out to ruin magic, and will purchase and sometimes practice effects only for personal gain; to be able to say, "HA! I know what your doing. Hey, everyone Ian is only......". While this sounds extreme, one of my "friends" at...

    Flyers/Posters

    I use posters all the time, and they work wonders. First off, it has to be very easy to read. I tried to make mine "mysterious" at first, but that only led to getting it ignored. Post your name in very large font at the top, and underneath it, identify yourself as a performer. I usually go...

    A Little Conversation With a Kid Who Reveals Magic on YouTube

    I really hate people like that, they get me really pissed. Dave, you got him really good. I'm going to go send a few PM's on YouTube. We have to put an end to this.

    Saturday Night Contest - DG's Creativity Challenge of Doom

    Here is mine: http://vimeo.com/4333295 Just before the deadline. Hope that it processes in time..... It was very difficult to perform without a spectator, and it would have been much smoother if I would have had one.

    Wayne Houchin Lecture

    I've always wanted to attend one - I have a friend who attended one, and he completely changed his performance and character after attending Wayne's lecture. Wayne has lots of experience in almost all posible scenarios, and it'd be awesome to learn from him in person. Still waiting for him to...

    Any new tricks

    There have been many mentioned. Both Wayne Houcin and Tom Isaacson are working on a few "projects", and Chirs Kenner's book was announced quite a while ago. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

    Saturday Night Contest - The Blaine Effect

    Awesome idea, and first I’d just like to wish David a happy birthday. I have a very interesting story, lets get started. I still remember that one night when I was seven years old, sitting on our couch and watching TV with my family. I can’t remember what show we were watching, but after...

    USPCC Standard Playing Cards - Now Available at theory11

    Awesome! I can't seem to find Tally-Ho's or Bees anywhere today. And bikes, well, lets just say that I probably have a couple hundred of them stashed in my room, but hey, whats a few more? :D Great price. I'm going to be picking some of these up in the near future.

    What's With All The Lefties?

    This is a very interesting point, as lots of influential artists (both in the magic industry and out) are left handed. I'm naturally right handed, but I have worked with my left hand a ton recently, and have become almost 100% ambodextrous. It's kinda cool, because I can now complete complex...

    Cards - Do they matter?

    I usually use bikes for tricks, as they do seem to strike a common ground with the spectators. However, when doing flourishes, I really do prefer Guardians or Centurions, both because they look awesome in the flourish, and they feel really nice. One solution is to buy some blue or red masters...
