I picked up Rapture, and it passed the wife test - - She said "Wow! That was amazing! I have no idea how you did that." Win.

That sounds frustrating. But they did clarify earlier in this thread that your subtotal needs to be over said amounts. Discounts always come before subtotal. It sounds frustrating at first, but makes the most sense to do it this way (which is why [almost?] all businesses operate this way.

Thanks for sharing about your gig. I really enjoy reading these. I think sleight of hand moves are like gimmicks - they should never be detected, and when used well, will create impossible effects. If your magic isn't relatively 'moveless', then it needs to look like it has no moves.
