Transmission Complete

Postby JHostler » May 24th, 2023, 7:06 am

As a gesture of good faith, in atonement for the happy-fun-time "Solid State Motion Myth" joke, the elves have whipped up "Transmission Complete." This concoction melds a few concepts and tactics, allowing for "think-a-card" under the following entirely arbitrary conditions:

- No gimmicks or gaffs
- No "thinking" from a tiny little fan
- No fishing
- No "toss all the reds aside... ok, keep the clubs..."
- No memory work
- No fumbling for the right card at the moment of truth

Audience recall: "I thought of a card and send it to this hippie guy telepathically. He made odd facial expressions, cut the deck to a card and just stopped. When I named it, he (or I) turned over that card. Haven't been able to work since."

While the elves earned a bonus for this one, it's yours in return for nothing but eternal adoration. (This may be a tax write-off in certain countries - consult your financial advisor.)
