I've tried the search function but couldn't find any posts about this one.

I was on Ellusionist and came across this link.
It's an 'online mind reading session', instructions are on the website.

Here try it out:

It only works when you follow the instructions, if you just pick one symbol from the list it doesn't work...

OMG I can't figure it out am I so stupid?

[edit]Talking about experiment #1 here...[/edit]

Oh after a closer look and some common sense I know how it works.
Very clever though!

Have fun with it

Its pretty easy really....

Hmmm.....
kinda similar to this one

Has anybody done the one with the cards? Its quite freaky, and its on ellusionist as well.

someone sent me a link to one of these once, and my reaction was just "sorry, I'm a mathematician, so...." and then had to spend 10 minutes explaining how it works, 10 minutes!!! dear dear.

wonder if i could get away with doing a dissertation on maths and magic, and would that me mathemagic? for i am the mathemagician!
