You aren't doing as good a job performing as you used to.

How old are you, and how old is he? If he wants to learn, teach him. But teach him about the art first, not the intricate mechanics involved in performing the art. Teach him about the unspoken code of secrecy, and then start with some small stuff. Pinky breaks, double lifts, dribbling...

Haha, why bother? Firefox all the way! (We developers have really got to use other browsers, too.. hmm)

I'm not sure you fully understand what I meant, but oh well. It works and looks fine.

@ Mr.MadMan: Anything like this will be based off of PHP. Most multi-user PHP scripts rely on MySQL databases. @ Richard: Just a suggestion: Work on the organization of pending challenge requests and accepted challenges. I would suggest having the "headlines" tab showcase only the accepted...

I have to applaud you. I haven't been around too long, so this is a rather "out-of-the-blue" surprise, although a very nice one. :) Question: How does Person A 'beat' Person B? Do other members rank the video(s), and the higher rating wins?

Becoming more proficient at flourishing means that you are gaining more control over the cards- That's a given. So yes, I believe that some flourishes will improve your finger/hand dexterity, speed, and control, thus improving your ability to execute certain sleights.

Oh, I know, I've been using it for some time :P Thanks for your quick reply! And now I'm off to bed...

a) Yes, it's "pulled". I did not mean to give the wrong impression by using the word pop. b) As of this time, no. All 52 cards must be placed in the deck at the same time. c) Yes, it can be. ;)

My original post was edited, a video has been uploaded. Please let me know your opinions.

They said "later this week". Which could mean 7 days from the day that was posted; wednesday.

I can tell you're bending the deck, and I can tell you're shaking it, but that darn move still befuddles me.

Congratulations on the gig! And welcome to Theory11 - if you have any questions, feel free to post a thread or send me a PM; there's a ton of helpful, experienced people around here :)

Try it out on some spectators and let us know how it goes.

As Squ!rrel stated above me, I don't think it's a very practical move, and requires misdirection to pull off smoothly (if you are looking at the Buck's hands when they use D.D.C., you can easily see it. I've used it before and gotten away with it several times, but I'll usually get a "hey, what...

Can we all stop abbreviating everyone's names? It takes a whoppin' ten seconds to type it out. Do so, and avoid confusion. As for mentalism, I don't mind so much. I don't find myself wanting to perform too many mentalism effects. If, however, you do, might I suggest looking at Luke...

CARD MAGIC FORUM. As for the change, it was okay. Learn to pinky count, or at least pushover to establish a break.

That's... terrible.

For magic: If you live in the USA - Red or blue Bicycles. If you live in the UK - Tally Ho. === For flourishing: Any deck that you like. Bicycles /Tally Hos work fine; I hear a lot of good about Wynn Icon decks, and of course any custom t11/ellusionist deck. It's pretty much whatever suits...

Matt, you are missing the point. I created this thread so that we could have ONE thread, filled with reasonable , reachable goals and suggestions. It's not going to be filled with the immaturity of other suggestion threads; I know how annoying that is to the administrators. If you don't...
