Right, so their big warning was to let us know that once the party starts it is too late to play catch-up

The number of "What if Real Secrets....." and "It will be hilarious when..." posts
are staggering. No facts, just jumping to ridiculous conclusions. Like sour grapes. I am still excited. YIPPEEEEE!!!!! I agree with Clarke, who cares about their business model? James

Yes. the business model of Real Secrets is completely irrelevant to me.
The contributors will be Gaetan Bloom, Cyril, Michael Weber, Robert Neale, Max Maven, Axel Hecklau, Paul Wilson, Christian Engblom among others. Michael Weber was plugging Real Secrets at his lecture and said he was excited. On the third video from The Magic Place from Blackpool, Tim Trono, who is being interviewed, says this is Michael Weber's project. Good enough for me. The recurring payment is such a non issue. I am intrigued by the mystery, if that makes me an idiot or naive in some people's mind so be it. James Quote: On 2012-03-11 19:30, insight wrote:

James, Will Real Secrets prevent you from reviewing their products / effects on this forum?

If Real Secrets is coming on here every few days and dropping these little nuggets of info to get people talking, they are doing an amazing job and should be congratulated. I find the entire thing fascinating to watch with all the speculation flying around. It certainly has me more interested in the product than I would have been if no one were chatting it up. For those trying their hardest to dismiss the idea and organization behind it, what they are are really accomplishing is getting more eyes on the product which I assume is what the vendor wants.

Nooner, I don't find anyone "doing their hardest" to dismiss anything. There is a lot of discussion because there are a lot of questions. You think they are doing an "amazing job" because this thread continues? It may have kept the intrigue factor going for you, but I personally think they have lost THOUSANDS of potential applicants / subscribers because of their "secretive" approach.

If the "secrets" are quality, why would members not want to honor the notion of secrecy?
Have magician's forgotten what sets us apart? Or has the art been replaced by a hobby? |

Newguy, I would say 90% of people on the forum are hobbyists/part time performers.
There are more hobbyists than there are performers. Most products advertised here are geared towards the hobbyists.
Magic is a vanishing art.

Edh,
You are probably right. Are the rules of an art elevated my its Masters or the masses? |

Mr. Mystoff,
What could you imagine in a best of all worlds scenario? Is there any chance that these guys actually deliver, buyers like what they get, play along, keep getting more things they like, month after month. What would that be like? Too impossible to imagine? |

Ironically there's not enough secrets in magic these days. Perhaps I'm a bit idealistic or nieve, but I'm looking forward to this. It'll be fun.

I will post if I think it is good,great,so so, but I will not tell anyone what it is or describe the effects in any way.
That's the deal. People talk. If you tell your best buddy, he will absolutely tell his best buddy. I will keep the secret absolutely. James ps ok, I'll tell my wife but she will NEVER tell. Quote: On 2012-03-11 20:49, Atom3339 wrote:

Of course we will still have the skeptics warning us of impending doom. |

Right? Then she will say "Men and their toys." Then they will go back to ruling the world.

To me, that's what it is about. A lot of fun. I am already having fun just thinking about the monthly surprise.
Like I said, I bought a Creative magic portion, and it is so much fun. Trying to guess what will come in the box every three months. I also think the first month will be really strong. I also have a "feeling" it will not be just one thing. James Quote:
