I've talked to Zach about it, and no, it wasn't random. I'm not going to post the conversation, so don't even ask. But it wasn't random, and I don't completely agree with the reasons they were "cent". See what I did there? :D But, I'm happy that Zach's enjoying them, and I'm not going to...

Delivers approx. 3,000 pounds of pressing force on the cards.

If it was honest to God random, then I wouldn't have a problem with it. However, I'm 90% that it wasn't. Zach has told me before that JB has told him he likes his videos, all that. Oh well... nothing against Zach... just doesn't seem fair to me. But whatever- we'll all get our chance...

Eh, it really wasn't that great. What's the point of performing for a spectator if you're not even going to let him see what you're doing? The reason he was looking around like that was because he was bored, because he couldn't see what was going on. Involve your spectators more, man.

My Ghost deck is extremely off center, but I haven't really noticed it on any other deck. Normal Bikes I find are usually a tad bit off center, but it's not very noticeable, IMHO.

He knows Tom Isaacson and JB likes his videos... I guess that's why. But I know Joel, so maybe I should get a deck? I'm not going to hold any grudges over it- I just don't think it was exactly fair. From what I understand, JB just sent them to him for no reason. Oh well.

//My Review for Believe//

I would really say he deserves them just because he's a better flourisher than me. There are flourishers on here that are much better than him. But, oh well. Everybody has favorites, and I understand that. Like I said- enjoy 'em, Zach!

I just learned a couple days ago that Zach got his. Which I think is a tad unfair of theory11, and showing some major favoritism, but whatever, it's all good. Enjoy 'em Zach! I personally won't be participating in the limited release, but I will definitely pick some up if they're actually...

If it's simple- how is it hard to get right? :confused:

That would be something more suited for a Saturday Night Contest rather than a Cerca Trova. Cerca Trova's, IMHO, are just more for discussion about a certain topic.

Oh yes, it would give a beginner much more confidence. But I can use a normal TT just fine, so I have no need for one. The guy demo'ing them at the IBM Meeting actually did the Thumb-Thru-Shirt, and talked about how good it made it look. I've never been a fan of the effect, but to each his own.

Agreed. I practice in front of the TV occasionally, but only when I'm positive that I've already got the move down, and am confident doing it and building up muscle memory without looking.

In my experience- this is usually a bad idea, simply because you are focused on the TV Show, and not what's going on in your hands. So if you're doing the move wrong, you'll never know, and build up your muscle memory doing the wrong thing. Just a thought...

They are, but I personally think they're kind of a waste of money. I mean, they're a nice collector's piece or whatever, but for me, a Vernet works just find, and should for everybody else if used properly. But that's just IMHO.

J.B. Bobo's Modern Coin Magic FTW.

Go Catholics! Anyways- I think this effect is cool, but it's pushing it a little. I probably wouldn't perform it for people... just to be on the safe side. Especially not older people.

RRTCM FTW! Check out my review for it... it's like... teh pwn. //Royal Road to Card Magic Review//

Dixie Dooley has a DVD set on the market that I've heard is ok.
