Am I being overly paranoid(not unusual for me) or should we try to avoid referring to the actual title/author in this public thread?

I thought maybe it was just an addition to the Dopps routines,...which would have been fine, except I was thinking that after POTO and maybe one more, I would have enough of a completed Dopps collection. Now, you have me rethinking my entire budget plan for late summer, ha, ha...? Thanks for sharing in such detail!  x

Vic great teaser video trailer. I get that it's not supposed to tell you anything except it's coming. Many marketer uses this format it's very common.
Sounds like a breakthrough book test I'm sure it will be excellent. |

The video actually speaks more to the books backstory than its presentation. Threads like this are to give people who are excited or curious a place to talk about something without anyone telling them "nobody wants to hear about your ghost book that doesn't exist yet, Steve. ...there's and order up Steve, get outta my way, Steve. Im a freight train, Steve. If I was into magic you would do more work, Steve. The only ghost here is your voice haunting my dreams because you don't ever shut up , Steve. ...No I do not play xbox or Destiny, Steve"
So I am hoping it stays positive as life can suck enough without my favorite things having to for no reason. (also...I am totally not Steve and If I was that is totally not my manager) |

Skip this if you don't care but "try" not to be nasty we don't need more.
Doesn't matter who you say you are (your avatar/name/picture/number of posts) as long as you are nice and decent to others, that will prove who you really are (now there is a good use for g@@gle that may shed some light hint hint). This is the point I'm trying to make although maybe a bad way to make it. You are right duck there is never a need to insult someone’s artistic and creative effort (video). I think you can qualify that by Vic's response. You are too nice Vic. It should be a privilege to own these types of work not a right (interesting topic for a thread). Should we show some respect and be thankful, not nasty if we want to be worthy. Now there is an idea that might help to keep the peace around here as nothing else seems to work. How about I buy their copies and donate them to spookys in good standing then all the good heart people are rewarded and the creator won't lose. My words and intent are positive if you read carefully, it doesn't matter that I have a silly name you know I'm being real. We still have to wait for the book but isn't that the fun part, anticipation? Vic I guess there is nothing more to say we have it all now thanks, but really you shouldn't have. Thanks for the updates and again nice work on the video. I would like to see others try to make one. |

I'm excited about Spectre! I thought the video was a perfect tease.
The story of this Ouija poet has the gravity to pull into orbit so many marvelous topics and props. Just you wait! |

Please consider me one small voice that appreciates the videos. This and the Outlook style. I often o back and watch them after I get a product just for inspiration.

I think...hope...we are all creative enough to appreciate a well-made pitch, and smart enough to take it for what it's worth. The video was cool as is. I was sold to. Liked it. And look forward to more.
Just thinking we need to lighten it up a bit. Downstairs was designed for weightful conversations that may be too heavy to be supported up here. At the rate that some are asking for...there'll be very little talk here at all, except for *******, @#$@Q!^@#%^, and __________. And that's not spooky at all.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

Videos for bizarre book tests are strange beasts and a challenge. You hope you can evoke a mood and simply present the setting.
You are also producing a video that only about a dozen people will ever actually see and you still can't give away secrets. MG was merely anxious for information and he really does excel at tiny details...much like Sherlock Holmes between cases. As an experiment...try hearing Ian McKellen's voice in your head while reading his posts. Try it. A Prof B.C. release is exciting! |

As to SPECTER/SPECTRE, I've been playing it very close to the vest for many months--not even telling Vic what all it was going to be able to do. I personally love the video. As some have said, it is meant to be about atmosphere, and the video captures that atmosphere very nicely indeed. I rushed Vic the 'basic' Oracle routine for posting here just as soon as these Tom-Toms began to sound and I was happy to do it. Please be nice to each other now, I would be very distressed indeed to see unpleasantness of any kind gather about something that I was working on. Also please be patient, SPECTER/SPECTRE is still in the works. I am working on the layout and coding even now, today, and I have a booking at Doomsday mid-May that will likely interrupt this work for a fortnight or so. As to the effect itself, this will be an Oracle book, suitable for Dopps-style, one-off, and mindreading presentations to be sure, but primarily aimed at the fortune telling/reading market--tell the future, connect personally with a ghost, reveal hidden truths about the past, present, future, get real-life bookings at fairs, corporate events, that sort of thing. A Ouija experience without the prejudice associated (in many minds) with the Ouija board. It has taken me many months to pull it all together to make it work as advertised--and it does. And, yes, the book will be as completely examinable as anything I've created in the past. Hand it out, do the routine(s) without fear or the need for memory work. Completely self-contained and presentable at a moment's notice. Be kind to one another, now. You are all my friends, and it is quite distressing to see friends fall out. Please. BC

You know I have never been afraid to speak up and I will continue to have opinions and little tolerance for the disrespectful among us. I made many points some you may get and some well... There is clearly a right way to debate (unfortunately it really doesn’t work here at all). Yes, I am definitely a peacemaker and sometimes I like to take it to the mat to make my point (guity as charged), but I do not often throw the first stone. I just like to throw them back because I am a little dark. How many of you would admit that?
You know I can be a nice guy. I apologize for lowering myself but it might not be the last, but that depends, do you really want a positive environment or just want to talk about it? It's never a dull moment for me but I also like to back pat, give glowing reviews and cheer like the rest of you. I have even been accused of being too positive if you can believe that (mostly from the same challenging individuals). I have even been known to contribute in a positive and constructive ways. I have nothing to prove or be ashamed of. Enable me to help you and support this place as it is meant to be and things may actually pickup... Many people here are cloaked or wearing masks maybe now you are starting to understand? Hope you were at least entertained it's what I do, even if my show was not for you. Anyways Prof is bringing out something very special and I hope this thread stays up there without the negative drama. I am always here in spirit.... |
