It's impossible to put a deck of sealed cards in a bottle man. It doesn't fit

My favorite games are mostly capcom fighters; streetfighter series etc, resident evil series, the ace attorney series, and although it isn't capcom, tekken is cool too.
 
I also like CODBO

Magical Cardistry Bonanza / Re: HOW TO MAKE AN INVISIBLE DECK

Personally, I don't like to support the parts of the industry who charge silly sums of money for things like string, wax and 'the secret'.  It's just information, which IMO should be free.

This kind of info can make magicians lose their status man.
Think of magic like an rpg, at first you start off with free crap magic, but if you perform and make money, overtime you can afford the bigger better tricks.  Then you continue using those tricks until you're either tired of it or until you can afford even bigger magic tricks.
 
If all the info and magic trick were revealed and given off the bat (like having all skills availible in an rpg resulting in a lame game), then there will be simply too many magicians, and people just won't care for magic tricks anymore.
 
That's my opinion but what do I know

A Cellar of Fine Vintages / Re: Your Basic Deck
« on: December 30, 2011, 06:47:18 PM »
With no manufacture name and no pics of the card faces this deck is a complete mystery.
I'm sure the back of the box is the card back but for all we know they can have uber simple, basic court cards and faces that look awesome because of the simplicity or.... an even more unlikely theory, uber crazy hectic beautifully  designed court cards and an ace of spades greater than tally hos, using only the name Basic to mask the truth!
 
But this is all basless conjecture so carrots  :-X

If there are only 2 finishes though, why is it that some cards clearly feel different than others, like dragon back vs standard? I might be tripping if they do feel the same. I gotta go to target to find out for sure with fresh packs  :)

So the cambric finish is all a lie  then  :-[
 
If there is only two finishes then I wonder how many card stocks the uspcc has...

The Conversation Parlor / Re: Contest Ideas
« on: December 30, 2011, 05:55:33 PM »
Nobody never did this contest idea before...
 
The best "T.V" styled fake magic performance done with "real" spectators. In a fasion similar to Mind Freak.
 
Not only will videos be interesting, they will all be unique, and it gives more oppurtunities to actors and film junkies who lack technical slieght of hand magic.
 
And the winner of the contest's video should be the one that makes you feel like your watching a pro on tv. They can use any nasty trick in the books, stooges, wire, whatever they feel like using if they think they can use it to win and give them the edge.
 
Sounds pretty crazy man but that would be a contest I like to watch.

Design & Development / How to get subscribers and views on youtube?
« on: December 23, 2011, 09:33:43 PM »
I want to make a youtube channel with lots of subscribers but I don't know how to go about at it. I had a couple of friends who only had like 2 subscribers and that's it and it looks lame.
I want to do either a deck review channel or a COD channel but idk....
My bro is super good at MW3 but he got major hate comments like "you only played noobs" and stuff. :'(
 
And for deck reviews I would start recording but I don't know what to say or talk about.  :-X
 
Give me your trade secrets guys, I want in on the action  :-[

I like his reviews too but I don't feel that he shows the cards enough and he doesn't go into depth about the deck

I agree that he's not the most thorough and he leaves me with more questions than answers but he's got great card skills.
1800s and Arcanes have to be my favorite. EZ what happened to your youtube man?! I checked out your update video and it sucks that all your vids are gone. I liked the pure smoke vid. It got me hyped

Wasn't it Ellusionist?
I don't know. PoundFFFFF sounds pretty right though.
Quote from: PoundFFFFFF on December 05, 2011, 12:45:25 AM
If talking companies outside USPCC itself - Yeah.. likely the tigers if you look at the trailer. Also you can tell how there was practically ZERO customization on that deck save for that one on the box front. Ellusionist has certainly come a long way.
hmmm I always thought the ghost deck came before the tigers. I don't know what im talking about  :-X

Playing Card Plethora / Who started the custom card craze?
« on: December 05, 2011, 12:08:56 AM »
I am wondering if you guys know who started the huge custom playing cards stuff. When I was younger I would never imagine playing cards looking so cool. Looking like art I guess than cards.
Like what were the first custom magician decks?
Im a nub so just wondering  ???

Will there be enough decks for everyone who may want the deck?

From the pics I see this is gonna  be a mean deck of cards

I think you're referring to the Infinity deck and not the one discussed here as there are no pictures available of this one just yet.  ;)
Woops  ???
I'm sure the christmas deck will be a mean deck based on E's repurtation anyways  ;D
