Wow I didn't know that there was a difference. Pm sent

Best situation is to have an effect that you can switch out the gimmicked for a non-gimick mention by Maestro.
if not try to quickly get into another routine where it does require a gimmick.

JassTann! First! You can't "have" an effect! An effect is what the spectator perceives or thinks that he perceives.

Sorry, but the rest of your statement, makes no sense whatsoever! BTW, what is a "gimmicked"?

Yup! It's an ANCIENT THREAD!

I should have read the entire thread before my several comments. With the exception of Funsway, Monte and obrienmagic, the rest of the comments make little or no sense whatsoever. Except for Dynamike, Ado. and Maxfieldmagic. the others appear to have fallen into a black art well!

I should have read the thread from the beginning!

With the exception of Funsway and Monte, the other responders either don't know what an EFFECT IS, or their comments don't make much sense.

Well, MOST of the responders, seem to have fallen into their own black art well, anyway.

Someday, I'll publish a book with definitions of common terms.
