You can really use the Search button, my friend. There is a whole thread comparing Hand Out 500 and EB (not sure if it's 2.0 or 1.0).

You seem to have good stage presence, I can see the look in your eyes...:) Thanks for posting!

You were never a jerk, but you did get me puzzled. I am still yet to find someone who can discover the true focus behind my thread. Or am I just not meant to express myself this way(?)

You really think the focus of my story was to tell of how I pranked my friend? Regarding your second quote, I still stand by my point. Notice I said "With JUST tricks", not with Magic as a whole. With just tricks, the impact will not be as strong as a trick with much more presentation...

No biggie. I just hope you got something out of my little story.:)

I'm getting slighly confused now. The main point of my thread is really just to express my views on what I do. And no, Web, mentalism is much harder for me than magic. But I really think it's a personal opinion, and in truth we can't compare what is "harder" or not. End of my opinions.

Did I really say that? I really didn't mean to say that if I did somewhere down the path; I'm just trying to say that magicians and mentalists have different goals in mind, and different focuses. @Web - I agree, they are supposed to do that. A handful actually achieve that, especially those...

Mhm. But I beg to differ that "presentation was easier" - I never said that. The focus is just different. Making it more about the Mentalist than about the sleights he does. Sorry if I couldn't convey that clearly. And about the ratio comparison - it's not just about the ratio of tricks to...

@ D ICE R - But you don't have to use chips for LOKI...can't it be done with any 3 objects?

What presentation you focus on will Never be the focus of your tricks. Taking the example trick of the 4 Queens, the focus will always be the 4 Queens, no matter how you butter it up. Grandpa's Aces - another prime example - had a wonderful presentation. The Aces were the main focus after...

And as I'm journeying into the realm of mentalism, the perspective has shifted from being "look down at my hands, you'll see magic in my cards" into "look into my eyes, and I'll change everything you believe in". As the Mentalist, I am everything that I perform. If I can make myself magical...

3 weeks is a bit too long for a forum without Steerpike. I'm seeing less and less meaningful threads on the forum...I urge you to kick up the nest again. Confront us; it gets us thinking.

Hello. I just wanted to share a small story of mine (nooo...not another one) that demonstrates the difference between what magicians see, and what the audience sees. In Art class, I usually perform magic and mentalism (mostly mentalism now) for my fellow classmates. I didn't have a deck on me...

Hi MadMan, Since I learned you're a mentalist, and since there's just a few mentalists that I know of, will you mind me asking you stuff? I still have a long journey ahead of me. Cheers.

I thought with P&P it costs more than $10...*sigh* The beauty of living in another country

I hope it's less than $29. That's usually the price for single-effect DVDs nowadays...*sigh* But I would pay anything for CRUSH!!!

I say I'm 100% supporting your cause Deceptio. Although the design could use some work. I understand your POV in that you want to bring your religion into your magic. I love that idea. That shows Character, and you're trying to display a part of you along with your magic. That's what I try to...

...or you can wrap the shirts in bubblewrap or something, then toss it into the crowd to find volunteers, and in the end the volunteer gets to keep it 'cuz he/she REALLY did "survive Draven's show". I like the graphics, but it's a bit hard to see your face at first. Very stylish though. Nice.

Oh...so will it be correct in saying they're doing a "buy one get one free", but with a good performance in order to get the deal? I would prefer a refund. Good thing I asked T11 forums first :D Thanks CM.

Hmm this is quite an interesting topic. What's your real name? And why can't you use "trickaholic"?
