Title: Hello
Post by: S.G on January 08, 2012, 12:05:52 PM: Hey Guys,

I'm new here (obviously) but I'm on quite a few other forums. I was a mod on DnD before they took their forum down and I am on UC, T11, and others.

Seems like a great, active place and I hope to make some meaningful contributions to the community!

I have been flourishing for about 2 years and I just got a new camera so I hope to make more videos in the near future. Here is my "Camera Test video" so please let me know what you think.

I also do a tiny bit of card magic and would like to get into rubberband magic.

See you all around!

Hey! Haven't seen you in a while!

And yeah, kinda...not really. I like cards but never buy any because my parents don't let me. Honestly though, I only enjoy using certain types of cards so no, I don't collect cards.

Collecting cards is a difficult hobby to explain to parental figures. I remember a couple years ago I was secretly buying decks and hiding them in my room. Now I'm (happily) living on my own and it's hard not to hop on eBay and drop hundreds of dollars every day on new decks.

If you take anything away from parents that limit you, it should be a good sense of self control. :)

It's not necessarily a bad thing that you don't collect. It can be an expensive hobby, and all one truly needs is an off-the-corner-store-shelf deck of Bikes or Tally Hos to get off and running as a flourisher or a magician. Ironically, the more you end up collecting, the less likely you become to actually use the decks, and the more loathsome the idea becomes of letting a stranger handle your cards. So get the cheap stuff and go nuts!

Welcome aboard, please note where the lifevests are, keep one hand on the rail, and anchors aweigh!
