    How do you practice?

    Very interesting thread. One thing I would add to this is the value that a video camera can add. Often I would practice something to my heart's content, and start performing it for spectators thereafter. Weeks would go by, months would go by, and then I would see a video of myself performing it...

    How not to ask for a favor...

    Subhaas since clarified that matter, but at the time, it absolutely sounded like "you're not going to give them to me for free?" That's certainly how I read the message to mean when I saw it in this thread. As Jason specified, if the post had asked for OTHER resources in addition to the...

    How not to ask for a favor...

    How is posting concern in a sincere, honest manner "ignorant"? I think having the words ignorant and Jason England in the same sentence is humorous, as he is one of the least ignorant people I know on any topic - magic or otherwise. Jason is also one of the most ethical individuals in this...

    t11.bulletin : Essential Magic Conference - What You Need to Know

    We have a winner - that was quick! To quote Gene's autobiography on the EMC site: I am a physician, now retired. I’ve had an interest in three particular areas of magic: the linking rings, Slydini, and Winston Freer. I had the good fortune of getting to know Slydini since the mid-1970’s, and...

    t11.bulletin : Essential Magic Conference - What You Need to Know

    Hmmm... let's keep up the fun here. I'm thinking of a certain EMC presenter. He once was a doctor, but no longer practices (medicine). An avid fan of the Linking Rings routine, he often mentions the Maxam Rings - an effect in which the three rings are examined before use in the routine. Which...

    Saturday Night Contest - The Facebook Card Challenge

    Congrats! Check your PM's today for information on how to claim your prize! This was one of two bottles made like it - made at Magic-Con 2010 by Jamie and hand delivered to myself and Dan and Dave. It's two of a kind. The cellophane is still on the deck (sealed); it looks amazing!

    How not to ask for a favor...

    Bill, Nothing in the message Jason referenced implied (or stated) that he didn't have a credit card, so I don't think your post is correct in fact or intent. The message did NOT say "other resources" - it said "good resources" - and specifically said he couldn't find the Greek Deal "anywhere."...

    Optical Illusion - I believe you must first be a "fan" of theory11 on Facebook. Head to facebook.com/theory11 and hit the button to add yourself as a fan, and it should work. Let me know if that does the trick.

    Saturday Night Contest - The Facebook Card Challenge

    Tonight we bring you a VERY special Saturday Night Contest - Facebook Edition. You need a real Facebook account to participate, so if you don't have one yet, make one. It has to be legit. In a nutshell, we took one RED card and put it in a BLUE deck - and we recorded a video of us doing it. The...

    Tally-Ho's finish durability?

    Just to add one more note here - ALL standard Bicycle and Tally cards being printed now for retail are using black seals (and have for the past 8 months). So seal color should NOT be used as an indicator of quality or which run a deck was printed in. There IS an indicator, however - on the Ace...

    Tally-Ho's finish durability?

    Their old press was sold back to the manufacturer under the condition that it could no longer be used to print playing cards of any kind. Their new press is made by that same manufacturer (it's just a newer model). In theory, the new press should enable much greater quality and accuracy in the...

    Tally-Ho's finish durability?

    I don't believe that to be the case - no more than to be expected. As a company, surely they try to reduce operating costs whenever possible. But the issue here was achieving a level of comfort with the new presses in the new facility. The individuals that I have spoken to and given critiques to...
