Ello!
Just thought it prudent to drop some 'magic' into the board, as I think lately we've overlooked the raison d'etre of this forum a tad.
Here's something which I'd feel grateful for some opinions on, as I am getting so deep into magic again, and yet I have no 'nuclear comrades' with which to chat about such things...
And this is one of my points: I am sure that all of you here share the passion for magic, and yet for me, I have nobody whom I can drop down to the pub with and talk about magic.
In fact, it bores most of my mates to hear HOW, they just love to see the magic, not hear about it. They would rather see magic, and talk about football, women and beer—which, is fine by me!
However, I find that 'springing' ideas of others of you 'in the know' is the only way I can seem to get things right. A friend of mine who is very much into magic has moved from my area—and yet he was numero uno critique/sounding board.
Mrs Seige is an excellent judge of what works and what doesn't. I can show her a move or the basis of an effect, and she'll either say thumbs up or thumbs down... which is great.
However, discussing magic in a very open and receptive environment is something which I am sure most of us don't get chance to do, especially with like-minded people.
Luckily, I've found MSN. It's brilliant. I can chat with others and bounce ideas around—and it's marvellous!
I suggest an area where others may post their MSN messenger IDs and we can try some group discussions.
