Yeah, Flying Wombat is quite clever... You can trust Amane on what he says on coins though :)

For Nick, the same comment that I made to Cringe apply to you: The problem with doing Shapeshifter as a back change is that, because the pips don't change, the visual discrepancy during is quite obvious. And for this video in particular, your SS covered too much... And don't worry Cringe, he...

...And I did that. Did you? Whilst I agree in principle, you're criticising us for the same thing you failed to do. And yeah I do agree winterline. Velcrowe is right though, some more constructive criticism would be good...

As I've explained in other threads, it's not always possible to film live battles. I for one would find it impossible to do so; not to say that I don't perform for people live, I do, as the magicians who know me will attest to. Nonetheless, my only camera is a stationary webcam, and my room is...

Well we have a fortnightly thing going on as it is, as you might've heard, so just give us a shout, you or anyone else if you're in Sydney and we'll work something out :)

That's quite a collection... I second what Damian has said man, from my admittedly lacking knowledge of the magical community, you are a brilliant guy and to keep your site running as well as continuing to give to the magic community here is selfless... The knowledge and presence as well as...

Everyone thus far has said Extreme Burn.

General consensus is to be yourself. In certain circumstances, there are those who have made completely different personalities, for example the late Jack Parker. Nonetheless it is advisable, except in the case of extremely experience magicians, actors, circus members, etc. (such as actors who...

Whoo yeah jeez guys let's all stick around and try and break the post count... Cause that makes us like, cool and awesome and stuff... We'll totally be noticed and important and stuff. Oh but don't forget to say you're leaving first just to make sure everyone knows and stuff, wouldn't want to do...

Nah it's not a big deal - it's irritating though when someone asks why they can't get so and so reaction like x magician. I agreed with Brad here, regardless of personal preference, which is essentially personal preference, the use of the term "visual learner" should be considered. Of course...

If the bbq is very soon it's probably fair to say that you shouldn't really be considering performing this if you're only going to have a short amount of time... Just general consensus..

By not asking how to become a moderator... Anyway, nice post Jordan. One particular point I liked, which, applied to magic as a greater whole, sums up a lot - things which are technically easy can still be intermediate or advanced because of any number of factors; the actual mechanics of a...

"New"? I hope you've done your research.

Quoted for truth... Sigh, I'm slightly ashamed of this topic -.-

Why don't you just wait for people to respond, instead of hijacking every single one you can find? Posting the same thing lots of times doesn't magically make people reply to you.

LOL, the Ghost deck. This thread makes me laugh...

That's terrible, re: Transference! Sounds similar to what I've heard about his Neo Change DVD too... >.> I'd agree with you on one trick DVD's though. Concepts, principles, moves and effects can be worthwhile despite being the only thing on the DVD - consider The Berglas Effect (is that what...

Yeah I agree... They all have their good points. Learning from books is great in that it lets you discover the move for yourself rather than copying it. I don't buy the visual learner excuse, but I would agree that it's much easier to teach poorly or to miss a detail with a book. And page turns...

It's VERY knacky. Unless you're doing something wrong in terms of handling, there's really not much else to do except practice if you really want it down, it's just one of those moves... What are you having a problem with - understanding the text, a specific part of the move, a specific...

If you can, why don't you film yourself performing something, something you want to make better, and put it up somewhere and we can give you advice? The advice so far is really solid, if you wanna do this, I'm sure lots of people would be happy to give you specific advice too. As has been said...
