Just stumbled across this very old thread and effect. This IS a direct copy of an earlier effect by Andrew Brown called The Broken Prediction in the book by Thomas Baxter entitled The Open Prediction Project. I understand that someone did mention this earlier but it then just got "shrugged off". I have the book and a magician friend has Insane, we compared both and the descriptions of method are almost word for word!
I know this is an old effect but it amazes me how the magic community really crucify any magician who dares release a trick that has already been done by someone else, but kind of brushed over this one, I'm guessing Andy Nyman is well liked! I remember Wayne Goodmans Prism stack was a 100% rip off from Lewis Jones Stack, word for word, method by method.. later admitted by Wayne here on the Café, yet again nobody gave him a hard time, obviously another popular person among magicians. I know this is a whole new topic in itself, but why do some creators get destroyed by the community when they release a non-original effect? I'm Just puzzled that's all, anyway got it off my chest now....let's move on!!!!! |

I was right there with you up until: ok, let’s move on. I applaud you for bringing up something that seems to be a moral dilemma and something important that might have slipped through while maybe it shouldn’t have. So let’s NOT move on. Let’s get to the bottom of this. Andy?

Page 4 of this thread. Andrew Brown posted and said:
"Hi I have already had a chat with Tom and Tom had a quick chat to Andy Nyman .. He created his version independently .. and that is fine by me. Andy Brown" |

Yes I did see the post pointed out... That makes Andrew Brown a true gentleman in my eyes!
But my issue about creators who get more stick than others still stands! |
