So Toby had a brilliant idea in another thread that I thought should be entertained more.
Would anyone be interested in participating in a friendly video performance challenge with each other here on the forums? Say... closeup magic for a real audience? 1 effect/routine, dealers choice? 2 votes. Popular (based upon a poll of the forum members at large) and Technical (based upon selected judges input.) Judges score based on Presentation, Technical Handling, Audience Interaction, and Overall Entertainment Value.
I don't know what we could do about prizes. I could probably pony up for some autographed cards from some of my Vegas contacts. Maybe I could throw in a few decks too. I mean it wouldn't be kick ass stuff like what T11 does for SNC's but at least it's something more than bragging rights.
I know we have a battle forum (or did at one point), and perhaps this is better suited to be hosted there. Except this isn't so much a battle between two people as it is an opportunity for anyone to jump in the fun. Thoughts? Opinions?
