Hmmmmm. I suspect the demo leaves something out(which isn't necessarily a Cardinal Sin; musn't make it too easy for us to reverse engineer). If it really was as clean as the ad makes it look (Think of a 2 digit number. Look at the corresponding item on this list. You're thinking of____!)that would be something.

I've already tried this out... it kicks arse! Is really simple and Jay gives quite a few different presentational ideas... very cool.

I'm still not totally sure on how the effect works, but I ending up ordering it because of the promotion. My payment went through at around 9:12, so I'll be disappointed if I'm not in the first 99.

I suspect that it may be not too dissimilar in method to '100 names' by Oliver Clark where you have a list of 100 christian names, get the spectator to just think of any 2 digit number and then reveal the corresponding name on the list. Can be instantly repeated with a different number and name. Its not a bad effect actually. Maybe I should start using it again.

On the other hand I may just order this for the performance ideas. I especially like the idea of using the number of boyfriends the spectator has ever had.

I see this is a pre-order and it looks great. I can't seem to find when it should ship?
Any one know?

Thanks Chris, I really want to hit the order button on this one. I have not bought any new magic since, since, hmmm I can't remember? So those that have this seem to love it and that ad copy has me scratching my head.

Hmm... I have a question for those who have this product as I am seriously considering it.

Is there any mathematics involved that the spectator must do?
and

Is it as clear as on the demo video where the spec just thinks of the number and finds the word that corresponds with it?

In other words, I hope the trick is not too convoluted or some mathematical thing

I hope I can get an answer to these questions without revealing the trick.

Yes, but you'd have to make new printed word strips. The ones that come with the DVD are only in English

Chris, you should start earning some pay from Jay what with all the free advertising he gets from you! lol

I doubt very much these little blurbs do much for him, I dig his material and when he comes out with something, I like to tell folks.

Same concern here- like I said earlier, nothing wrong with holding back some info that would be an immediate tip-off to potential buyers, but your question is important.

Is this an amazing, portable M.O.A.B.T. style effect (for the price, I doubt it) or just the re-working of a convoluted, over-exposed principle(don't agree? Well, In the last year I've been sent links to at least four different sites featuring a similar effect using the method I'm referring to).

Of course you get Jay's presentational ideas with your purchase. Maybe this is what really makes this a winner. I don't have it yet, so who knows.

This looks crazy! Sankey is good to count on for mentalism.

Folks,

is the strip of paper examinable before and after the effect? How clean are you with this?

This is the most interesting thing that Sankey has put out in a while IMO. I want to BUY!
