    Somebody once said, "Oh my God." I mean, I understand that Killer Spies is a great effect and all, but they really don't have to call me God- that might be taking it a little bit too far.

    I'm Stuck

    No problem, even though I didn't do much. :p I'll try to explain it a little more clearly real quick. Go through all your effects, and pick ones that you might actually perform if you were doing a real gig. Then, sort those into different types of venue you would use them in (parlour...

    I'm Stuck

    Great may have been an extreme word. But you should start off with something flashy and quick to get their attention- make sure it's fairly good. Then go into a slightly less amazing effect, and finally build back up to the grand finale, which should be the best effect in the set. That...

    Perform more. If you're good enough, try to start getting gigs. Build great routines, and then refine them. Then show them to magicians and laypeople alike get feedback, and fine-tune them even further. Trust me, there's still plenty to do.

    Biddle Trick

    I came up with a face-up Biddle effect... I think it was almost a year ago. I had a video on YouTube, but it's down now. Shodan helped me a lot refining it- I wish he was still here. :(

    It'd probably be easiest to take a screenshot, save it, and host it on Imageshack. I'm sure there are other ways of doing it, but that's what I would do.

    Polaroid Change - B. Smith :: Review

    I liked the review, but I want to know more about the change- stuff I wouldn't find out by clicking on the link provided. The stuff like the name of the change, the creator, the genre, price, run-time, etc. I want to know what YOU think of it. I can find out all the other stuff by not being...

    I agree, but I can't see myself using the sleight method very much, unless my eye was super irritated. It goes back to the "magical masturbation" thing, but oh well. But you're right, it does look the same to your audience, and there aren't any funny moves or anything.

    Thread by Wayne Houchin

    I really hate the effect and hope Wayne goes out of business. I was just giving a good review, because maybe he'll reward me with something. ;) And yes, for those of you unsure, that was indeed sarcasm. Now Romeo, I have to go read your thread about the audience's experience. I sat down...

    Thanks Sean, I appreciate all the compliments. And yes, don't be a jerk like I was and buy it from someone else, make sure you buy it from Wayne. :p

    I know, but I'd still rather directly support him.

    Forums Glitch?

    It's a subtle campaign by the McCain Team to get you to vote. They haven't realized yet that the election is over.

    To be honest, I have no idea. I obviously knew it was available from him, but it didn't even cross my mind as I was buying it. Of course, I thought about it as I was going to bed that night. Again, I regret not buying it from Wayne, and I do apologize for that- it was an honest mistake.

    Propaganda Reviewed

    Top cards on standard Bicycle Decks will do this, as well. Usually it's not the deck, but rather all the humidity in the air. One day in the summer I had my window open (my Mom's house doesn't have Central Air... yet), and I was sitting at my desk watching the top card warp. It was pretty...

    Thread by Wayne Houchin

    I totally agree with you on that. More people need to think before they buy, and not fall into all the hype and marketing. Personally, this was the first magic item I've purchased since around July-August. There have been other things that have looked awesome, and I've been very close to...

    Thanks for the compliments. Like I said in the review, I'm glad that you didn't buy it. I mean, I think it's great that people would do it just to support Wayne and all that, but if it's not you, there's no point in buying it. Thanks again!
