I was glad when I finished mine with no mistakes. Don't let the simple nature put you off. This is a worker.

RE:The Devil's Tailor

I think the deck with the names you are talking about is the Nomen Omen deck.It is very very similar to what you've described

Does this deck use R/S? I realise you may not be allowed to say so, but then again, I've seen this issue discussed on reviews of other products, if I recall. I just don't really like R/S as the chemicals play up my asthma!

Thank heavens!

Actually I'm considering buying an ID, after seeing another talkmagic jon perform with one at a recent talkmagic pub meet. So I can't be that much against them.

And it doesn't use the Phil deck principle either? Interesting...

I wonder if mine uses the same method as the original as mine is instant reset. Just pop the cards back in the box and you're good to go again...

Yep, I watched the video and thought it was obvious, I assume it's the same method but I could be wrong there's always more than one way to skin a cat.

And do you think it's ok to watch a demo of a marketed effect and then go and make up your own version?
