There is a petition going around. Basically standing up to things like this from happening. I’m not even sure if it’s allowed to be posted in the Magic café anyway I’m 100% with Craig. There’s a way that you go about things they did not do that correctly. That part is simple in my mind.

Are you going to update the archive to credit Scott? I personally received a two page document in 90’s handwritten - I still have it.

The Archive lists only published references, no private correspondence. Your query would be a case for our Conjuring Credits site. See "How you can help!" here which includes an email address which is forwarded to the team that maintains that site: https://www.conjuringcredits.com/doku.php?id=faqs

Just to be clear; The argument isn't whether this was really published or not; it's to the extent in which it was kept suppressed by Newguy and Trono (due to the nature of the Real Secrets club itself), therefore meaning that Craig couldn't not have simply seen it, copied it, researched it etc.

Because of how secretive their trick in RS was kept, it's proof that Craig's creation is independent. But further more; EDCeipt isn't just the bare bones trick as has been printed in Real Secrets issue #2, 2012. EDCeipt is a mammoth, 6 hour+ project, which from the trailer which has just launched looks to be absolutely incredible. With many fantastic names involved!

As someone said earlier, this is like comparing a bicycle with a Tesla. Yes they both have wheels and will get you places but a lot more engineering, updates, ingenuity and thinking has been putting into one over the other. And in this case, the creator of the Tesla hadn't known about the bicycle.

Either way, Newguy and Trono won't aplogoise. That's on them.

But bravo to Craig and all those who collaborated on this fantastic looking release!

Should the release of a secret that must be kept secret to a select elite even be treated as a release into the magic community?

I mean I discovered the cause of Corona in 2012, I just decided to keep it between me and the other members of the Accrington Trout Farming Epidemiologists guild.

Those receipts Craig has done up look fantastic! They look absolutely real and the items on them are the sorts of things I'd actually buy at a store, too. As a huge fan of binary methods, I may just have to pick this up myself.

Shhhhh!! The first rule about Accrington Trout Farming Epidemiologists Guild is you do not talk about Accrington Trout Farming Epidemiologists Guild!

I personally don't like the idea of using receipts for this sort of effect (just my own personal preference), but I may pick this up to support Craig and the project.

As Sudo said, the receipts themselves look very well made and given the list of contributors, I'm sure there will be a wealth of information and food for thought.

Videoman brings up some very good points about over-policing and the stifling of creativity. For example: I have an invisible deck handling that uses a normal deck and no gimmicks. It is also 100% sleight-free and clean as a whistle. Some time ago, another fellow published the same basic idea, however his requires an awkward sleight performed at the worst possible time. I had not ever published my routine which is, in fact, a superior handling. My routine would be scrutinized were I to try to market it now. It's a shame because I know an invisible deck accomplished with a normal deck and zero sleights would be a very desirable thing for many.


Side note: I’ve seen this and it is beautiful. Stunning. I only wished I remembered the details. I just remembered being fooled and very impressed.


Thanks Nathan; glad you enjoyed it. On another note, I tried PM'ing you so that we could catch up some time but it seems your inbox is full.

Apologies for digressing from the main topic at hand for a brief moment.

If you have shown this to the powerhouses in the industry yet have a relationship with a giant in the industry, how can you claim due diligence?

It's ludicrous we had Overdraft by Paul Fowler and Master Con by Greg Wilson come out which is identical and nothing is said,we had Turbo Stick which was an improved updated version of Jimmy Rogers I'll do it again paddle effect and nothing was said.....the list goes on.

Craig comes out with an effect which has similarities to an effect so well hidden most of us hadn't heard of it and all of a sudden it's a major big deal!

Let's move on and focus on more important things, I say good luck to Craig it looks like another winner from a very creative magician who put's out some great magic.

Due to the original effect’s ‘secrecy’ Craig probably didn’t know about it, but he could have too. I’d be more likely to give him the benefit of the doubt if he didn’t recently pass off Aldo Colombini’s Paramount as his own creation.

What a big …
So you guys want to make Muggles aware of problems of the magic scene?
It’s getting more and more ridiculous.
