These are good tips. I got this early from Penguin just broke it out for a show the other day. Set it up with one of the two sheets that it came with. Wrote the persons name that I was going to use on the back square and when I went put in the envelope pretty clear bleed on the other side right in the middle of the letter square. I should not have been surprised, thin paper and. Sharpie. I could have reveal reprinted on thicker glossy paper. I don’t work that often and have not reprinted yet. I guess there are markers that bleed less also. I cankt see just using a pen as visibility would be poor. Eric it did not occur to me abou the paper size thanks. If anyone has specific recs on the paper and marker type I’d be appreciative.
I’ve done NoBrainer a handful of times. Honestly it hasn’t killed for me but it is practical and I’m still finding the beats. |

I had to use a regular Sharpie because the marker supplied was not working well. It did bleed some but for me it didn't have any consequences on the effect.

Try using dry erase markers instead of permanent.

EXPO Low Odor Dry Erase Marker may even work better.

Going to need a couple of days to really sort things out.....will need to alter drawing a bit as we don't use A4 paper but no biggie. Looks really awesome at 1st blush.

This is as advertised and is an excellent kit that would be very difficult to duplicate. It does what it says it does and does it well. You can either use the given patter or write your own as I will do. As for the paper size, I recommend making one copy and then seeing how to fit it before making more. A little cutting here and there (it should be obvious where) and it can be made to fit almost as well as the original. The flag deck is great and adds much to the effect. It is still a good demonstration whether you do the name part or not. It is still multiple and amazing revelations without.
I imagine there will be more comments coming from those who have recently purchased from Penguin and MJM. |

I found even A4 does not print out exactly as I would like at the edges but by just using a black sharpie I could draw in the parts I was not happy with very easily and quickly.
I'm going to try dry wipe on my next ones as someone suggested for less bleed through. This is a great item.

Just tried this last night. Got a pretty good reaction! I can’t wait to use it again on a stand up show!

Can this be performed more than once to same audience? Or is it like a Svengali ? Thanks

It can but on different occasion as it would require reset. One revelation is a !@#$* so you would have to work around that. Number and letter reveals can and will be totally different but set up is required.

This seems to have been a hot effect of late, selling out twice in North America and once overseas. So, I assume that many have it. Some may be performing it as magic and some as mentalism. Whatever, it's a fun demonstration and I like it but would like to change the premise of in the genes. One thing I thought of was describing it as the work of a student but that seems weak. Anyone with better suggestions?

Have a folded up piece of paper in your pocket tell the audience these are the directions. I'll just try it according to the specifications and let's see what happens. Tell them sometimes we create our own tricks sometimes we trade with our colleagues. I just got this from a friend and haven't had a chance to read about it yet, but, here goes. |

Maybe. I will think about this. I have also thought of suggesting that I sometimes have hallucinations and/or flashbacks from when I was a child.

For a hobbyist like myself, this is pure gold !!. Simple to do, allows full focus on presentation and utterly baffling to audience. I cannot recommend this enough and gets my vote for Trick of the year 2018.
