No problem Grant!

I saw your video (a while back) and the preview of the new one, and it looks good!

I am not an expert. I haven't studied it as much as others (though I study it every day... which tells you what kind of social life I have!)

What I can tell you is that everyone I have spoken too seemed to bring up points the others had missed. In fact, I had two experts tell me what the most important thing in Erdnase is- and both opinions varied (and NEITHER was Uniformity of Action as so many people say).

So do I think EVERYONE can still learn and grow from reading Erdnase? Yes. Some people will just get more out of these newer projects then others...

Half of me wants to keep studying just the book, just so I can say that I did. It would feel like more of an accomplishment. The other half wants all of the deep knowledge spoon fed to me. The same knowledge I might get studying it myself, without all the work of studying.

What's a young guy to do these days?

Keep studying while getting spoon fed.

I'd like to see what others have discovered whilst reading between the lines of The Expert.
One time, when I was young, I botched a sleight so bad, Vernon, Marlo & Miller rolled over in their graves. But I didn't see Elmsley, probably because he was behind the others.

There is one thing that does puzzle me in the book and it is this:

“There are many other methods of doctoring cards to meet the requirements of particular games, and the skill, or rather want of it, of the operator. By roughening the faces of some of the cards they will hold together, and are more easily retained while shuffling.”

I have spoken to experts such as PC and so on about it, but I have not been given an answer that I was happy with.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

Uff. Long time read this thread and untill last time think means my book, and I am that expert on Erdnase, which book will come on next half year. Smile))) But now looks like it was not about me. Smile

OK. Some of questions from NOT Expert on Erdnase:

What trick of Buatier DeKolta used on Erdnase?
How Erdnase call assistant of Alexander Hermann?

Please, do not try search answers on previous books. You can ask another experts which books still not published... I am not sure, but it CAN be on new books... But, it sure will be on my book. Smile

This will be good! It's shipping in a few days here.

Anybody know what the book will be like that comes with the DVDs? As I understand it, the book will basically serve as notes for the DVDs.

Thanks.
