Hahahahaha.

The gaffed marker is included with the DVD. When the market eventually runs out however, instructions are included as to how you can make your own. It must be mentioned though that he recommends a marker that is not available to the best of my knowledge in Australia and hence may not be...

I think Mikk gave good responses above. I will simply add a few things, that I can't really be bothered expanding on right now since I have to go soon - but feel free to ask. 1. The exact line is very blurry. It would depend from effect to effect - but generally I would consider it a mindset...

Actually, you make a good point re: street magic. But the real purpose of this post is: THANK THE LORD! I FOUND SOMEONE ON THESE FORUMS WHO IS NOT TOO PROUD TO CONSIDER A DIFFERENT VIEWPOINT! And can phrase a sensible argument in a reply which doesn't resort to belittling the other person...

Agreed. If he doesn't know the right things to teach, then he doesn't know the things well enough to teach them.

Don't direct your bitterness at me. My comment was a product of the community. I would've said the same thing if it was anyone else. I apologise for not being psychic. If you ever learn how, let me know, won't you? Hell, I don't know why I'm even bothering to defend myself against you, God...

A DVD that teaches you how to perform and when will suffice. Here, monkey monkey.

Your post seems to be a bit confused. You start off by defending Aviva, then question the discussion on ethics in this topic, then criticised my posts, then went back to supporting Aviva. And then had a brief paragraph on time better spent? I'm not sure that there's a central point. And it's...

Firstly - I do not feel that my posts have been demeaning. I give people ample opportunity to provide evidence, and I do not feel that this has been satisfactorily done in this circumstance. I sympathise with English issues (technically, it's not my first language either), but ethics have...

Tom, you misunderstand - the shelter was suggesting that *I* was prejudging, not you. In essence, he is raising the possibility that the magician friend in question did not give him misleading information, but rather simply that the effects he mentioned are, as you suggested, not marketed.

I think that was directed at me - that is to say that there is the possibility that the two effects are simply not for sale. All I'm going to say to that is, if you can find effects by that name, then by all means, prove me wrong. Even if you take an effect, say, Dianoetic Rage by Tom Baxter...

And the names were incorrect.

Honestly, there's no reason that you necessarily have to buy anything imo. Think about what you know, and how you can make something a closer. Personally, I simply close with a VERY simple number prediction - they are asked to think of a number, which is written with a swami on a business card...

A lot of professional mentalists probably wouldn't call that mentalism.

We meet Thursday evenings at Hey Presto's from about 7:30 onwards and go from there. We're generally around Coolabar and then Criterion on Pitt.

I'll save him some search work. I'm going to keep posting this in every single thread of this type I find. Though I haven't posted this for a while. 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...

You were right. Not surprised.

Not necessarily, not if used properly. A key aspect of my performance is the concept of elegance. I strive for elegance in everything I do, from the persona I perform with to the movements themselves. Therefore it fits my persona to have an elegant looking deck - slightly different from norm...

That's the one. Cheers for that mate.

Ah, if that's what he did indeed mean, then my apologies, and by all means - it's your effect, so go for it if you wish.
