The original Inject was released pre-2017 and for that reason Inject 2-0 was disallowed in the voting for the 2017 Trick of the Year

Jeff and Brandi Mash and crew at MJM Magic. Difficult to find the proper adjectives to fairly describe their amazing customer service. Kind, responsive, helpful.

2018 was one of the BEST years of new magic releases! Narrowing my selections down to only three was incredibly difficult because several of my honorable mentions are equally deserving. But, here are my choices:

1) Turner Watch by Nobody Knows (NK)
2) Digital Force Bag by Nick Einhorn
3) Mental Dice by Marc-Antoine

Thurston: Craig Filicetti (the "standard" in our industry)

Honorable mentions: Timeless by Joao Miranda, Bliss by Looch, Flux by Pro-Mystic, It's in My Genes by Michel and Vernet, Split Focus by Gregory Wilson, Mint Box by Daniel Garcia, Peek Pack by Brian Gillis, Scorpion by Bobby Motta and Pro Mystic, Out of the Blue by Mick McCreath, Bliss by Noel Qualter, Copycat by David Parr, C3 by R. Paul Wilson, PIN by Marc Paul, Occultatum by Menny Lindenfield, and Multi-Sensory Bags by Luca Volpe, Alan Wong, and Paul McGaig.

Thanks for the shoutout to Copycat, Jared!

David, thank you for delivering such an incredible routine to the community! BTW- I my list, I meant to type "Blink" by Looch (not "Bliss"). Apparently, it was too late to change it.

Since this area is searchable, voters should refer to the popular new watch effect as T Watch, not use its full name.

It's a bit late for that - the full name has already been mentioned 14 times in this thread

When does the voting end please?

The final tally is on March 1st and so I'm guessing February 28th

Ed

Can we have a to date total?

Since you are required to have 50 posts to cast a vote anyway, we should have the voting (i.e. this thread) in a restricted area and then post the winners in either this forum or better yet in the latest and greatest because that is what we are really voting on anyway.

It would make tallying easier because you wouldn't have to double check post totals to see if the member is eligible to vote.

All in favor say AYE.
