« on: September 10, 2012, 10:49:59 PM »Here we go! Purple artifice pageBlue arcane? I think you meant blue artifice
I'm really excited for this deck. I loved the borderless blue arcanes, and purple is my favorite color!
. I don't own any artifice decks. So I don't plan on getting this one. I still preferred the older Ellusionist decks

Finally! But I highly suspect that they would not be for regular sale.
On a side note, doesn't the imp in the background look like the Imp on dnd's t-shirt?

Only 44 were made and sold at $200. This awesome AIP definitely deserves a thread on its own. Here is the link for when it was sold 3 years ago.

« on: September 05, 2012, 10:37:02 AM »As far as what hotel you stay at goes, check out the Riviera. Very nice rooms, but the dining options are terrible. Still the rates are fantastic. Circus Circus is a hell hole, stay far away. Other cheap rates are Tropicana, MGM Grand, and Excalibur, if you can catch them on a special.MGM Grand is where DC does his shows and the reviews online seems not bad! And I checked the MGM website and it says that DC's shows are 90 mins. Alex can you please reconfirm that it is indeed 30-40 mins?

Playing Card Plethora / Re: NEW DECK- Silver Monarchs Deck from Theory11

Welcome on board Lyle. It's awesome when a rep from a big magic company comes to the forums to answer queries once in a while. This shows that they are really listening. Soon Syd from dnd might also be a member here.
I def plan to buy the silver monarchs but not now as they won't be gone in the near future and t11 decks generally handle well for cardistry and magic.

« on: September 04, 2012, 11:51:17 AM »Yeah. That's y I was asking for recommendations for hotels instead of reading all the reviews. :pAlex, is Cirque Du Soleil still in Vegas? That was an amazing show.
Which Cirque? I think there are 7 of them running right now.
If you do book through Kayak or one of the other cites you may want to ask opinions on places first.
For example- one of the lowest rates you will find for a hotel in Vegas on the Strip is The Imperial Palace... However I suggest staying far away from their, it is a rat hole.
I was in LA about 8 months ago and I'd definately recommend heading down to the Magic Apple in Studio City. Freakin awesome magic shop. I'd go back to San Diego, nice there. Alex, is Cirque Du Soleil still in Vegas? That was an amazing show.magic apple noted. Might even head to the magic castle.
Anyone knows if the castle is open to public?

Try one of the US-based travel websites, such as Kayak, Priceline and Expedia. Get ideas from them, check price ranges - if you get a deal, you can even book through them.

You should sell your extras. That would lower the cost of your vb by a lot. I might want the midnight depending on the price. The vb with signatures is def worth some money but ever since they stop numbering them I think they are not worth as much.

The Conversation Parlor / Re: Performing magic with fully custom decks
« on: September 02, 2012, 10:20:48 AM »
For magic I think that the decks should have recoloured faces at most and a not very suspicious back. I have performed with the White Lions and was praised for having a very nice deck(she was describing the backs). No one has ever suspected the White Lions before. I think that those very custom decks should be left for collection, flourishing or poker night. Some would even argue that being too custom would confuse the player regarding the suits and value of the card.
For magic, having as standard a deck as possible would allow more diversity for the magician(gaff and gimmicks) and less suspicion for the audience.
