Hi,
Ive just purchased this deck yet i have a problem. Im not sure if i can tell the problem here without giving the deck secret away.
Can someone please advise me if its ok to talk freely about the deck here? I dont want to get in trouble again!

I think the underlying principle is the same, that is, it works off the same gaff - i think

I would love to help if you still need...PM me.

...
Brainwave works off the same principle as the Invisideck (:P) but there are some differences in the handling (e.g. you count face-down in BW and face-up in ID). I prefer the ID because a) BW is not repeatable (back colours...) and b) it immediately brings to mind the idea of a gimmick deck...

I have a brainwave deck that has he same colour backs!, I would prefer an ID though as i suspect it is easyer to find the only turned over card!

Brainwave deck with same colour backs

.
Bit pointless making these, isn't it?! lol...
It is extremely easy to find the card with an ID...you just spread through -- well, I won't give away the secret, but I was showing people the next day.

Yes...that's a same-colour brainwave....you were correct the first time....sorry for confusing you....
I was thinking it over, and it seems to me that having their card face-down in a face-up deck is actually a better reveal...just a thought though...

The brainwave and the ID work with the same principle but are used in totally different contexts. The handling of each is the same as the principle is the same. A light touch should be used to reveal the desired result....I hope that helps but if you have another problem then feel free to PM me!
