Wow... that's very interesting.... look who wrote it.... ellusionists guy

So it's a magic store.


Did anyone notice my 11:00:00 picture???

Looks like Bayme maybe spilled the beans cause E might not be happy? Maybe prompting the falling out with the bucks? I'd love to crush E.


I bet Asher and co. is gonna be ticked to find out someone let the word out.

Lee will be at Sorcerer's Safari on the 31st... so will a friend of mine.

Joshua,

I have fireworks, how did you fix the blur? What tools in there did you use?

I just selected the head and sharpened it. looks a lot like DG, if it is him he lost some weight

Hey, that's mean.

I wonder if it could be Homer.

It looks a lot like Danny.

Chew on this:

Key member of E moving on to new opportunities...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone,

I wanted to let you know that a key member of Ellusionist is leaving as of today. Jonathan Bayme has contributed enormously to the success of Ellusionist and we would not be where we are without him. His tireless pursuit of perfection, magic, and the latest technology has moved us forward immeasurably. In addition, he will continue to be a dear, dear friend of mine as he is to many on this forum.

He is leaving to pursue superb opportunities and is taking some much needed time off. His dog Mozy is thrilled because she is getting more attention. Jonathan will continue to remain very active in the magic community and on the Ellusionist forums.

This is a young man who can and will create his own future. Nothing is beyond him. I hope you'll join me in wishing him the very best in his new ventures.

Woah!!!

Very very good find.

I wasn;t being mean. I'm making observation to help figure who it is

Ha ha, I know I know. I'm just kidding.

Don;t look like homer to me

So we've got...

Lee Asher
Dan Buck
Dave Buck
Chris Kenner
Homer Liwag
Daniel Garcia
Jonathon Bayme

who else?

Picture of him here http://www.homerliwag.com/about.htm go to slide show

Perhaps more interesting than the post itself is the name of he who posted it.

If you ask me this is boiling down to one of 2 things.
A new store run by some of the best minds in Magic (backed by Ellusionist-doesn't seem to make too much sense.)
OR
Here comes the conspiracy theory.
A new store not backed by Ellusionist.
All the people involved at the moment have had something to do with Ellusionist over the past year. Be it designing parts of their website (Bucks) to being a consultant (Kenner) to meeting them in Vegas (Liwag) to visiting them to discuss future projects (Asher).
It's looking more and more like all of them were just getting a little inside info on how to run a successful online magic business from the inside to me.

Here's an email reply from Lee Asher posted on the Penguin forums

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for emailing. Yes, I have flipped the magic world on its side!
They needed it. You know how I feel about some of these
not-so-reputable magic business... so this is how I am changing the
industry - making it better for the artist.

When it's all said and done -- you're going to be in awe. When you
know and see what I know and see, it's going to be huge.

Good things come to those who wait. Trust me.

Cerca Trova.

Cheers,
Lee Asher

Why would he mention the not so reputable magic businesses unless he was setting one up himself?
