    INSTANT TiVo IDEA

    "The best way is the original way." That is not always true. If it was, we would all still be using a Folding Quarter to do Coin-In-Bottle. Many new variations of effects are much better than the originals, and make it look better, or even make it easier. Wait a minute... were you just...

    Stop Magic Makers

    They know what they do is unethical, what do you think a bunch of teenagers' signatures is going to do? I'm not trying to be mean, just stating the truth. You guys should spend your time practicing sleights, new effects, and your presentations instead of wasting time signing a petition that...

    Improving T11

    Oh, ok, I get ya. Like the Penguin Theatre over at Penguin? I think that's a great idea. I thought he just meant a place to post videos... nevermind my first post, then.

    Trick idea that I can't execute yet.

    I think it sounds like a good idea, but make sure that your story is captivating, and will hold the audience's attention for as long as you need. It would be nice to be able to make it so the King's throat appears as if it is bleeding, then change it to a "skeleton King", so it appears as if he...

    Pass the card right in front of their faces

    Yes, but for an ACR, instead of taking hours and hours to get my Classic Pass done perfect, I would rather do a simple DL and get it over with... much simpler, IMO. And, IMO again, I think simple is often better. You don't have to practice the sleights involved nearly as much, and you don't...

    Stop Magic Makers

    Sharpies aren't anything like magic markers. I agree, Magic Makers need to be put out of business, but do you really think that if you get so many signatures, they're going to say, "ok guys, you got 1,000 signatures, we're closing." No, they're not. The only way to stop them is to stop buying...

    Just had a crazy idea.

    So put away $5 a week out of your allowance or so, and slowly save up for one. Or, for every bit of money you get, put half of it away so that you can spend it on magic... that's what I do. The other half I'm using to save up for a car.

    Double Undercut Subtlety

    I talked to Garrett over MSN about this move, and it's actually a great subtelty, just hard to describe over the 'net. With Garrett's permission, of course, I wil post a video of both moves later tonight. As for the kind of break, you start with a pinky, then during the actual move you...

    Just had a crazy idea.

    But I don't think you understand, it would ruin the whole idea behind magicians being proud of their Jerry's and Wynns. When you see a magician performing with Jerry Nugget Cards, you know he takes this art seriously. But if Theory11mass-marketed them, even with a different stock or whatever...

    What cards do you guys use?

    The_Dark_Angel- Obviously somebody else already put up pictures, but just to let you know, these are not rare cards. You should be able to fiind them at your local Target for about $3. I myself picked up two decks... one to keep sealed just in case they ever do become rare, and one to play...

    Performing Magic in School

    AceofGears- that really sucks. Maybe learn some crowd control. And I'm not saying that to be mean or something, I'm honestly trying to help. Learn to realize that you are in control of the situation, and while you're performing, you, for the most part, control what your spectators do, what...

    Panic Review

    Oh, ok, then that's fine. Is it like really fragile or something? Or won't last a long time? Because that stuff wouldn't reveal it.

    Witness has NO gimmick whatsoever?

    Sorry, double post.

    Witness has NO gimmick whatsoever?

    Sorry to get so off-topic, but as the topic of Digital Dissolve came up... can someone explain to me exactly what happened? I'm not sure that I understand, as I cannot seem to find a thread discussing what the issue is with Mr. Bayme and Mr. Dusheck. Thanks!

    Just had a crazy idea.

    I think that would completely ruin the idea of having Jerry's and Wynns, if everybody can have them. They'd become worthless, because very few would be able to tell the difference between them and the originals. I do think it would be all right if they sold normal decks, but I can pick a...

    Panic Review

    Nice story, but could you go over anything that you thought was bad about the effect, if there was anything of that nature?

    INSTANT TiVo IDEA

    But wouldn't that be the beaty of Tivo? Being about to borrow the deck and perform this great effect? Or even being able to hand out your deck to be searched for dupes after completing the effect, and not having to worry about palming that extra card and ditching it?
