Hello!  I'm new to this site.   :D
(I was using United Cardists for a little while but then it suddenly went offline, so I found this site instead.)

A little about me: 
I enjoy magic tricks as a hobby and I tend to focus more on cards.  I have been slowly accumulated playing cards over time and now probably have some sort of hoarder's disease.  I usually feel the NEED to collect new decks as they are released.  At the very least, I am trying to minimize the financial damage by convincing myself not to buy decks by the brick.   :)

A couple months back I decided to start posting YouTube video reviews of decks.  So far I have four of them up.  I am new to making video reviews....  and am seeking ways to make the videos more entertaining & useful.  I would really appreciate any feedback/suggestions people could provide. 

I am starting to become more interested in cardistry because it should allow me to demonstrate the decks better.  However, I am pretty much a newb to cardistry.  I think the video reviews I've put up so far might be a little too plain and lacking in the cardistry area.....  so I'll try to improve that over time.

He's being very literal about your name, "French Fry Necromancer".  Necromancy is supposed to deal with the dead, dark arts, etc.

Welcome to the boards.  The only stupid question is the one you don't ask.  So, feel free to ask!  :))

I think you'll enjoy it here.  We've received a lot of UC expats here in recent weeks, so you may find some familiar faces/names/avatars.
