I'm not sure why anyone is apologising, no one has been called a liar, Its just that most people that have bought 'Change' are unhappy due to the hype, and cannot see themselves performing live with the gimmicks.
Maddy keeps trying to prove to us all that the gimmicks are not a waste of money, but so far has failed to convince anyone that we are wrong, so by providing a video of a live performance he could show us all just how effective and life changing these gimmicks truly are, after all they are supposed to change the face of magic, change your life, and break the internet. Without a live performance we can only assume that some people are wearing emperors new clothes, I guess most would be happy to be proven wrong, but so far most are content with their initial feelings. To some magic is about simple entertainment, simple tricks that fool no one, but provide a few seconds of entertainment, to others they want effects that truly fool, leaving the specs with a feeling of astonishment, disbelief – or belief that magic may well be real. Maybe that's why there is some disagreement about these gimmicks amongst a select few. If ellusionist had not gone hyperbole with the marketing, and simply put these gimmicks out as something akin to a blank deck that can be used in some situations then perhaps there would be less disappointment, but also of course fewer sales. |

By demanding Magic.Maddy produces a video to prove his point, people are obviously saying don't believe his claim. Therefore they are calling him a liar.
In Scottland we assume someone is innocent unless we can prove they are guilty. Magic.Maddy I apologise for all the pitch forkers around here. Keep magic live my friend. ![]()

But if you really are unhappy with 'Change' don't just throw it in your drawer and say 'ah well'
Send it back! I'm sure the company don't want to get banned from using Pay pal or accepting credit cards and this could happen to them.

We are not demanding a video, but are happy with our belief without further evidence, its a normal human trait.
If Maddy wants to truly convince anyone then his word is simply not enough, if he is happy for others to hold their belief then fine, leave it there. |

Hey, why only Maddy? It's understandable. But, I hope everyone here demand a live video from Llyod, rather than demanding it from Maddy. What Maddy trying to do is encouraging all the victims to practice practice and perform. While honestly, I'm more agree to encourage the victims to repacked resend and refunded..

I didn't purchase Change and I wouldn’t do so just based on the way it was hyped, and as a pre-order no less. And based on the negative reviews thus far I'm pleased that I didn't order this.
That said, I have never known Madison to lie about his magic and I don’t believe he is lying now. How many of you have seen Maddy perform magic? While I've never met him personally nor watched his act in person, I have seen a number of video performances of him and in my opinion he is a very good magician. Real good mechanics and truy excellent presentation skills. And I haven't known him to lie about an effect. Jim |

Hi guys,
Just a few things. Please notice I never said someone called me a liar! I was just responded to Altrez's post telling me to quote "be honest." ![]() I don't mind people having a different opinion. There will always be some that hate some products while others love them. The only reason for me even telling oft experiences with this is to simply report MY findings. I'm not trying to convince anyone that the trick is revolutionary nor am I trying to persuade people to dig it out of the trash. I just hope that by sharing my experiences, some will feel at least slightly encouraged. My biggest question is this: What do I gain by claiming I've used this in front of a crowd if I haven't?? I will tell you. I gain absolutely nothing. As some people have mentioned here (thank you guys) I'm not one to lie about my magic or about my view on magic. I have been known to give bad reviews to products I felt deserved bad reviews. Even when I was given a copy by a creator for free. I always have and always will state my opinions of a product. Good or bad. I will not sugar coat my findings and I will not state something publicly if it isn't true. Thanks, Madison |

Ellusionist was a bit over-the-top, I have to admit. But I have a great respect for Brad. If I have a question about something, he tells it like it is. I buy what I need. Not what is hyped. KAOS was the PERFECT CTW effect I was looking for! Brad steered me straight on that one. Plus the Gaff cards. The Ghost Deck was hyped a bit along with its Gaff deck, but I cherish those! Ellusionist has to market itself. I respect that. However, I, myself, would take a good hard look at marketing techniques vs hype. Make an adjustment or two, y'know? I mean, make people want to buy your stuff, but in a more subtle way. I dunno. That's just me. Doug |

If you can't tell for sure that it's at the "appropriate angle" without first getting reactions to prove it to you then that's my whole point proven re: my reason for mentioning angle issues & "real world" practicality. What if someone wants to do it without the "let me know" patter choice? Then the moment of the change could happen prematurely. |

Fin,
I use the deck in my left hand as a guide. I know the moment the card gets tilted past the lower right corner of the deck when held perpendicular to the card that the card is now blue. Thanks for the input. |
