    How Do You End Your ACR?

    I'm boring.I usually go with the old standby. Card to wallet. Sometimes I use Pixel. If I do my Twilight Angels ACR then it usually ends inside my zippo lighter(my "Angel Catcher")

    How does dynamo do this?

    Random and a bit off topic but twice now I have seen Ian Brown in a Dynamo video. So any other Stone roses fans out there?

    A few gambling moves.

    The guy who posted this thread( http://www.penguinmagic.com/discuss/viewtopic.php?f=10002&t=161004&p=1262968#p1262968 ) is a former gambler. He has been retired for some time but if you are looking for questions as to weather your stuff is good enough for a table or if the moves you are...

    Improving The World: Brazil

    What you are doing isn't a bad idea at all. Unfortunatly, I fear many of these are going to get buried.Why don't you consolidate them into one continuous thread. That way everytime you add a new country the post gets naturally bumped. And, because you seem to be doing them in alphabetical order...

    What decks have you been using lately?

    I use whatever deck I happen to be reviewing. So in this case Sentinels. When I am taking a break from card abuse(errr...I mean reviewing) there are two decks I come back to. For flourishes and walk around(in hands style) card magic I like Fournier 605s. They are stiffer and snappier than...

    what are some good do as i do card effects

    I like Lee Asher's because it is all done with one deck. Instead of 3 of Clubs and a 3 of clubs you go for matching colored pairs like 3 of Clubs and the 3 of Spades. Anyways the reaction is about the same but it has a much more organic feel. I also like it because I agree with something Daniel...

    Angle Zero = Stage Effect?

    Have you thought in terms of pre-show? Think of someone in authority at your school who will be present at the talent show. For instance, Principal, Student body president, perhaps the teacher or counselor who is in charge of organizing this specific event. You could do some simple bill...

    Jason England VS. Lennart Green ?

    Come to think of it...Check out Ben Earl. He has a very unique style that seems it has been influenced by both styles.

    Jason England VS. Lennart Green ?

    Jason looks like a pretty tough guy and Lenart is on the other end of 50....Pretty sure Jason would clean his clock. But Richard Turner is a blind 5th don Black Belt who even kinda looks like Chuck Norris so no question TURNER! OOPS....you mean card handling...... Styles are too different to...

    Too Much Consumerism in Magic

    Well said. Look the online forums and online shops don't cheapen what we do in laymen's eyes because they do not frequent these websites and forums. If they do it is likely because they at least have a passing interest in joining the community. Here is a question for all of you....who has heard...

    The Ultimate Brick

    That is awesome. I think it is a beneficial sacrifice, at least to the community. There are plenty of people who are not hard core collectors but are curious about how some of those decks perform. Almost like, "You may never get your hands on some White Centurions but if you get your hands on a...

    The Ultimate Brick

    Well...you kind of have to trash a deck in order to properly review it....so if you have the stones to trash a deck of S&M v.1 and White Centurions for the good of the community you will eternally have my respect!

    The Benefits of knowing the Mnemonica stack ?

    Well I still don't see the exact connection, though I'm sure he probably has. Anyone who has been doing magic for the last few years probably has. Psypher, being one of the biggest releases of last year, isn't exactly a "hidden gem" in the magic world....Gem perhaps....just not hidden.

    Robert Smith Psypher ideas ?

    It's an impression device. You can use it for all the applications any other imp device is used for. Get one ahead for a Q&A, drawing dupe, thought of card, PK time without the spectator having to name their thought of time out loud, and all that is just the tip of the iceberg. If you want more...

    Forgotten Sleights

    Seconds and bottoms, though still common in demo magic, used to be used a lot more in magical effects. Intentionally, or not, theaterhead touched on an interesting point. Styles of magic have changed a lot. In many ways those styles have dictated the abandonment of older sleights in favor of...

    Too Much Consumerism in Magic

    I agree, at least in sentiment, to most of what Randy said but I had to call this one out. I honestly think that isn't true. The top two suggestions when a newbie pops up on the forums and says, "I want to learn card magic," are Card College and Royal Road. I think that there is a little bit of...

    LIVE strolling mentalism clips - corporate event

    For what it is worth I'll side with you on this Mat. I also didn't think that Mat's constructive criticism was in any way "Harsh" on Benji. Nor did I think it took anything away from Benji's performance. Benji isn't a good magician who is trying to up his game so he can start to book $1000.00...

    Levitation Methods (Tarantula Vs. Centrifugal)

    I have a tarantula but not a centrifugal. I am however, aware of what style of ITR centrifugal uses. I have the original Micro ITR which is similar, though larger, that the ITR that comes with centrifugal. So now that you know where I'm coming from, here are my thoughts. Tarantua is a brilliant...
