    Holiday Wheel Prize Problem

    Last Wednesday I spun the wheel and landed on the "charity:water" as my prize. However, I've never received any email, updates, messages, or instructions regarding how I can claim my prize. I've also emailed the support team but with no response. If anyone knows how I can obtain my prize, please...

    Getting Nauseous Before a Show

    First of all, I would like to say that the last time this feeling has happened to me was over 10 years ago when I first got started in magic. I am sure that back then it was due to nervousness and the lack of confidence. However, as I gained more experience performing over the years, the feeling...

    Crazy April Fools Magic Trick::FOOLER

    This is a fun presentation/patter for a very well known effect that I recently came up with. What I like about this presentation is that it turns an impossible magic trick into some of kind of believable psychological experiment, which adds a "realness" factor into the routine. Further, the...

    Magic for my mom's birthday LIVE

    Last week was my mom's 52nd birthday (very special to me because there are 52 cards in a deck!). The best present I can give her on her birthday is by showing her some magic.

    Concern about the Holiday Contest

    On the page where you spin the wheel, the small sentence in the top left corner said that "Of the prize is still on the wheel, it's still up for grabs!". However, I remember Lyle said in another thread that "We gave away one of our grand prize on the first day of our contest", but all the grand...

    Problem with Mcdonald Aces + Interesting Solution

    I've always felt that mcdonalds aces should not end with the aces together in one packet because the overall theme of the routine seems to be revolving on how to win in poker (getting a good hand). I've added an ending that brings this effect to a logical conclusion. Please provide me with some...

    Fake Exposure Videos - BAD for Magic?

    In my opinion, fake exposure videos can sometimes cause a decrease in the sale of a magic product. Think about it, if a person saw the 'fake' exposure videos and truly believe that it is the actual method, they would not purchase the product. In addition, they would not purchase other magic...
