Hello! After practicing on and off for around 2 years, I've finally begun to start performing in front of people. For right now, it's family. What do you say when someone asks "how do you do that" after performing a trick? Other than saying "Magic." or "Everything is not what it seems", what...

Hey, So I was researching a little about magicians and social dynamics when I stumbled upon this "unspoken rule". "When performing a trick never say you are supernatural or of the like. This would make you a liar and can ruin your reputation. This is not to say you should expose the trick...

So, I've been seeing in the Elite Member Initiative and on the forums "saturday night contest". I'd really like to get my feet wet in this community and like to compete. But where do I sign up? What time does it start? And most importantly, what do I do? I've heard there are types of contests...

Hi I had just bought a deck from Ellusionist and I watched the video but I cant figure out the tricks he used to show it off. I do know some of the tricks (ie. card spring, twirl) but those are the only ones. If you guys could tell me what they are so I could practice them, that'd be awesome...
