How does updates work? Do we need to buy updates or like what Smile?

Also for Ideas, I have
Burger King / McDonald's:
4 Presets
1. Burger
2. Fries
3. Onion Rings
4. Soda
Something like, you go to Burger King and order a whopper meal, imagine sitting down, now whats the first thing you will eat? Will you take a bite out of the burger, or maybe eat some Fries? You can even get a sip of soda. So what will it be, what do you do first?


Then you can use the top 4 major mail serves
Yahoo
Google
Hot Mail
Aim

A great update idea is a watermark effect.

You doodle yourself a red box in the corner and then tell the person to doodle their initials in it.

Then by the powerful Greg and his coding skills, the red box and its contents will overlap every preset.

Then tell them you are going to write your prediction with their initials still there.

:) Just another ace in the hole to make the trick more real.

Hi Qwertzy,

All I can say is we're already playing with something like that right now, but even BETTER.

Stay Tuned,
You're all going to be SHOCKED soon . . .

Im a coder myself, or just a computer nerd. Im a web developer, amateur programmer, I own a dedi with 12 domains, and I get paid for a living in making CMS's or other stuff.

So any new coding I come into I like to learn, at the moment I'm learning FaceBook API, I want to get iTouch SDK but I don't own a Mac.

I love the added passcode! A great idea.

The only problem I'm having with it is that after I pick my preset, I have to re-enter the password to do a three finger swipe down.

As the holiday season approaches, you might ask, "Which of Santa's reindeer is your favorite?"

Regards, Steve

P.S. - Remember, it's "Donder," not "Donner." Smile

I like the reindeer idea, but as to whether you should use "Donder" (Dutch for "Thunder") or "Donner" (German for "Thunder") should be determined by what your audience thinks is the reindeer's name.

Heck, it's iForce - just have 2 different presets (one set with Donder and one set with Donner), and ask your spectator to name all of Santa's reindeer before you choose your preset, so you know which one to use.

The alternative is trying to correct your audience, which never comes across as being effective.

BTW, to avert people naming Rudolph, you should probably specify the reindeer from the poem A Visit From St. Nicholas.

Hi Scot,

The "Donder" vs "Donner" thing in my post was really in jest. Most everyone I know says, "Donner," even though Clement Clarke Moore's poem calls the reindeer, "Donder" (although there is apparently some controversy about Moore even being the author).

I think using "Donner" is fine and I will just have that name in my preset and like your idea about having the spec name the reindeer.

When doing predictions, sometimes getting close is far more effective than getting it spot on.

How about this? Have the spectator choose from an imaginary row of four coins(penny nickel dime quarter). Then have them flip the imaginary coin and decide if it landed heads or tails up. Your prediction would read something like "the quarter is heads up". This gives the spectator two free choices while still limiting the outcome to eight outs.


Hi Brandon,

Your idea got me thinking and I tried this out and got a great reaction: Having placed my iPhone on a table, I asked a spec to reach into her purse and pull out the first coin she found and then "flip" it to see if it came up "heads" or "tails." She did so (it was a dime and came up "tails"). I turned over my iPhone and she was amazed Smile

I think by having the spec pull out an actual coin you avoid "limiting" their choices to only four coins by telling them to imagine either a penny, nickel, dime, or quarter. In reality, of course, they are essentially limited to those four (at least in the U.S.), but I think it is not as apparent that they are limited. Of course if they pull out a half dollar or silver dollar, ignore the phone for the time being and go into a coin routine, finish it, and then ask them to pull out another coin.

Regards, Steve

Yes . . .
Anyone considering entering the contest?

So far only 2 people have contacted me about entering the contest. Hence the chances of Randy or the other person winning the $300 is currently 50%.

Fellow conjurers, enter so we can exchange ideas and explore different avenues to go down with this cool utility, not solely for the money! If you have a great idea of just want to send in a video that is some stuff we already have discussed, then do it! The prizes are great but this could be a great way for us to really get some thoughts brewing on this. There are I am sure some real gems out there...but we can't brainstorm if nobody enters!

Here is something to laugh at! A few minutes ago I get in my car on the way to the local coffee shop to film my IForce routine to submit for the contest and as I am driving I mentally check off the things I need to be sure I remembered them and I suddenly realize...duh!...I obviously can't use my IPhone to tape the routine!!!

I guess I need to find a video camera. It's so crazy how much we depend on our phones nowadays!
