You have to be kidding me right (on the shirt forum..)? What could you possibly discuss about a deck in a protected forum that couldn't be discussed in public? Man a forum dedicated to discussing a shirt...that forum had to be jumping with activity =) --Jim

I remember this being brought up on the Cafe awhile back and (if I recall correctly...) most of the serious mentalists retreated from the forum to talk about things elsewhere. I don't think most folks want mentalism exposed in a public forum. It would probably be better to have a...

Great thoughts there Josh. I would agree that we need to first start by figuring out what we are naturally inclined to gravitate towards in magic (comedy, mystery, etc). I think most people fight what they are best at because they feel if they can overcome their perceived deficiencies it will...

Chris is our token old guy around here! No need to hype DG at all his magic can speak for itself. Take that aside and he is probably one of the nicest and insightful guys you could hope to meet in your lifetime. We could only be so lucky to have more guys like him in magic....as I am sure anyone...

As an aspiring student I have been able to learn and perform each effect or sleight I deemed impossible prior to setting my mind to learning the effect or sleight. My mental list of goals currently -- keep magic fresh for me personally -- master, completely master, at least 7-8 total...

I would like to see more coin stuff from BJ's bag of tricks. I would like to see Aaron put out a video on his take on the pass and other card sleights. I would like to see a few things from Dan White in all honesty, simply because I love his approach to magic period. I would bet a few beers that...

My screen name means....well in Aramaic it means 'man who do card trick' and in Gaelic it means 'man who shoot you in face with bow'. Could go either way on any given day, it all depends on the type of morning I am having. --Jim

I mentally forced this idea onto Steve so cut me in as well. --Jim

Not to throw a wrench into the works here but how about bi-monthly. 7 days isn't enough time to really get into a deep discussion or for everyone to participate. A month might be too long and the discussion could get stale. I think 14 days should be enough time to discuss a topic and move on to...

It has been stated a few times by T11 staff that when you buy something from them you will get what you need to perform it. If there is a gaff/gimmick/etc required to perform the effect it will be included as a part of the package. Cheers, Jim

Trevor posted this just to get his post count up.... --Jim j/k =)

Tap a Lack by Paul Cummins. --Jim

That "Beginners Video" could simply be dubbed "How to avoid the pitfalls of magic". I don't believe that video is strictly for beginners but for everyone. I think anyone watching that can take something away from all of the great advice included in there. Dan White's comments were particularly...

I plan on getting this but not anytime soon. I am wise enough to not fall into the trap of feeling rushed to order something simply because it is limited in stock and won't be available immediately when I want it. I admit it is a nice marketing strategy to say you only have 300 of them in order...

Buying just the gaff for this effect is at least $40-50USD, tack on another 20'ish for the DVD alone and you are getting this effect for half the price it should fetch. This really is a steal but I have a funny feeling I will be getting the gaff from JS to match my WL set after I learn BJ's...

First impression: You launched with very little trouble and everything on the site looks sharp. The effects you have for sale look great, although a few look like retreads on HD DVD quality instead of being read from a manuscript. It's chaos here but I expect that in the first week or so. I am...

Sick...I will have to order this asap. That was my biggest gripe with S&S which you seem to have resolved for whiners like me =) --Jim

I learned this awhile back from Eric Jones after I fell for it while he was showing me something. I couldn't believe that it worked until he did it to me. Such a great idea and something that totally blows a spectator's mind that the coin could have possibly been there the entire time. --Jim

Dan/BJ/Dan W., How is the reset on this effect in terms of resetting it in front of someone else without having to break table in half to reset something like S&S. --Jim

I will be the first one in line to get some one-on-one mentoring with Aaron Fisher, Chris Kenner, and Dan White (another Philly native!) if they are involved in the mentoring program. I just hope that the folks running things at T11 are prepared for the barrage of requests for 1-on-1 mentoring...
