    ANATE by Dee Christopher

    The force is in fact a number force, so it can be used as such. It can be used with reasonable accuracy for a fruit. It can't be used to force a shape. I'm sure there are other areas the force could be applied to, but yes, you're right - the linguistic principle involved does have limitations...

    Hello! How are you?

    Hey man, welcome! :)

    Amp up your performance...

    Some good thoughts. Might add one more thing: believability. Does anyone really believe that you can profile them that a random card that they chose reflects the sort of personality that they are? Because if they don't, then you're back to doing some cute tricks.

    ACAAN Effects

    Sure. ACAAN is probably my favourite and most performed effect. Needless to say, there is a fountain of knowledge on this plot. If you're serious about performing an ACAAN, you will in time have to end up performing your own. The version I now perform is a combination of a number of routines in...

    Method Help

    Replacing the palm to the bottom sounds like the best idea so far. But for the sake of brainstorming, let me add another. Simply replace the palmed card on top via your preferred method and perform a wrist kill at the same time to hide the reversed card. Spread through the cards face up to show...

    Essential Books?

    Ok, I'll give you a list of some of the ones I think are essential - just as a side note, I haven't read your list (I know, I know, I'm just lazy and about to go to bed).

    theory11.bulletin : Daniel Madison - 3D Magic Spectacular

    I gotta go to bed so I don't have the time to look for visuals, but quick question... I don't suppose they shot Daniel in B&W, did they? :P

    Smoke and Mirrors v3 - Out Of Stock?

    Mirrors appear to be sold out, but Smokes appear to still be in stock. I'm surprised. I don't mind the changes to Mirrors, but it only accentuated my preference of Smokes, despite loving both.

    Fastest and best Card Trick

    I agree with D ICE R, but since when does difficulty come into play either? Earnest Earick's magic is good, and difficult, but a long way off from the best magic possible.

    looking more a type of effect.

    There are some very good effects that go like this: You spread through the cards face up, and the spectator thinks of one they see. The magician takes out the spectator's card. That's basically it. I tried out a version last week for the first time, actually - plays exactly like that. There...

    Bluff Pass

    If you're asking what I think you're asking, then it's just a matter of personal preference really. I prefer to curl my index finger above the card and tilt downwards - I'd rather trade off the extra cover for more vision.

    Problems with turnover reveal

    Is this in relation to the double lift? I'm sorry, I'm not entirely certain I've understood you..

    Best Card Tricks

    Posted as always. I posted this before, and it's always the same. Here's an idea. Look for them yourself, find the ones that work for yourself, and make them "hard hitting"! In all honestly, looking for the shortcut by asking for "best of" effects isn't gonna do you any favours, and 95% of the...

    New magic from your favorite magician

    You realise that that's completely beside the point, right? If I take your idea without your permission, even if I turn it into something (arguably) better, the idea is still stolen.

    Magic product you would NEVER recommend.

    What's wrong with that? Just because it's easy, doesn't make it bad. You might think you're above it, but T11 caters to people of all skill levels. Because that's what real magicians do. Then perform better so they're not looking for the solution. The only reasonable thing you've said in...

    Saturday Night Contest - The Dan and Dave Video Challenge

    Though I dislike D&D magic speaking in general terms, I almost wish I didn't for this, cause I LOVE those cards. Disappointed to see so few people entering when the requirement is a performance! What a great opportunity, with so few people, to win a great prize!

    Two card production ... ?

    Alex Moffat has a two card production called the Moffat Double Production. It looks good, but it's a production from empty hands, so I don't know if that's particularly suitable.

    New Move?

    There are many, many, many ways to do this. Without visual or detail it's hard to tell if your specific methodology has been done before, but I wouldn't be surprised if it had.

    How many do you possess?

    A few dozen... Not 80, but I can't be bothered to count at the moment. From an estimate looking at my shelf, looks to be around fifty.
