    Which one is better?

    Yeah, it kinda depends what you want it for and what level you are with flourishing and stuff. System is generally considered harder than Trilogy. Everythingelse obviously isn't all flourishing-related, there's lots of different little tidbits in there and the flourishing 101 section.

    Suffocated

    I may or may not be mistaken about this, this is from pure memory. Two soda cans are taken, one is shaken heavily, and the only one implodes. Basically. Umm and to my knowledge people were hoping for a release of this but there's no news of it officially yet. Correct me if I'm wrong, anybody.

    The Jill Deck - Annabel de Vetten

    I share your love of pop art actually, I really like the design - interesting though, did you notice that they have an "art" deck and a "magician's" deck for slightly more?

    Halloween

    ...Dude. Get over yourself. This is a magical community, if you have issues with someone else, good for you, but wipe your feet at the door here. He doesn't have to credit you for anything, your arrogance is astounging. Get over it. Jordan, I think there was actually a thread about the head...

    More on BELIEVE :: CA Speaks

    "People are having a very hard time responding to me getting cut in half because, you know, they’re applauding my death and they don’t want to do that," he said. "I’m going to come here tomorrow at noon and … I will work with the director and try to kind of change the routine a little bit." LOL.

    The Masked Magician

    Laypeople forget everything if your performance wasn't memorable in some way. For it to be memorable, a performance must be something more than just fooling them. Magic is the anecdote waiting to be told in ten years.

    Recycling Cards: Ideas

    Totally Out Of Control

    Ah, ****. Joshua, I can only offer my complete and unreserved apologies for being a retard as a direct result of being on these forums far too late in the morning. I completely misread your post, and took to defending SoH, whom I know in real life. Again, I am an idiot, it tends to happen fairly...

    Bad Influence

    Actually, I performed it just about an hour ago at a dinner I was at, and it floored everyone. It was an interesting situation because I necessarily had to remain at my spot at the table... I guess one other important thing to note is that there are a range of angles you can hold the cop at...

    How do you become a professional? - What is it?

    There was an interesting debate a while ago about the definition of an amateur, and in the course of this discussion the exact nature of the term professional was also scrutinised. I simply think that a professional magician is one that relies primarily on magic for his or her livelihood...

    Universal Impression

    It looks like it'll last a look time - doesn't sound like it needs refills or anything silly like that, it should be precision made.

    Is there a negative stereotype among women in magic?

    Huh? Uhh dude I don't know how you managed to find this thread, but just post a new topic about it since it has no relevance to the actual topic. If you want to do a search, try searching the forums for terms like "Starting out" or "Beginners' books".

    Breaking in?

    Breaking in basically means what PTG has said. Cards handle better broken in than original form. Originally from KildredMagician's post: Breaking in a New Deck We all love the feeling of a new deck, but they are so stiff. Here is my method of breaking in a deck: 1. Riffle shuffling the cards...

    Totally Out Of Control

    EDITED BECAUSE I WAS A RETARD. And I completely agree. It just sounds like you're not used to reading books for magic.

    Plerophoria et al.

    Two words, Pure Effect. I took no effects from that but the thinking, I have about ten pages of notes on, just ridiculous... The only thing to add though is that it's quite possible to make the specs think you've been smoking without actually doing so (since I have no intention of picking up...
