Method Removal
[edit]It is done by taping invisible string to the back of your ear (the string should be as long as from your right hand streched out to your left shirt pocket) and using magician's wax, tape or orthodontal wax to connect the string to the card you spin the card and control its movements with your head and by placing the string between your thumb and index fingers.
If someone can source the method, only then should you reinstate the method! See Wikipedia:WikiProject Magic —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dgcuff (talk • contribs) 16:00, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- It appears that there's a mathematical (i.e., not sleight of hand) card trick with the same name, with completely different characteristics. That one can be sourced, but it makes it difficult to find a physical book which describes this trick. I'm working on it, though.
- It should be pointed out that, because certain magicians have been making an effort to remove any magic methods, even if properly sourced, it would be unfortunate if a previous version of this article had a source for the method. Certainly most versions have no source, but I'm not sure all previous versions are unsourced. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 18:08, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- Discouraging to learn that magicians are removing sourced methods. Don't see how that applies in this case, though.Dgcuff (talk) 15:57, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
