Its out today though....

Right

... and their web page http://www.rostamimagic.com was down when I last looked at it, probably for maintenance.

Peo

But if this effect is as good as described, I should fool magicians too. I have no clue after seeing the (edited) demo, and I like it that way.

I hope Greg gets up early.

I hope so too. But if he sets the site up at noon in Los Angeles, I will still have to wait eight and a half hour!

Is this due out today then?

Hindu Shuffle is very popular in Asia. In fact most people do it that way when gambling. Just FYI

But Mr.Rostami lives in Los Angeles.

Actually all of my laymen friends use the hindu shuffle. They don't know how to riffle shuffle

I've read with great interest the many pages in the secret sessions.

Now I've downloaded the demo video and, sorry GKurtz, I don't think you have FIGURED IT OUT by yourself.

Then I have made my own version up, and it wasnt revealed in the secret sessions, Greg wouldnt give anything away, and why hasn't it been released yet, it says the 10th on his site and it is the 10th.

Gkurtz think about time zones. Just a little reminder ;-)

FYI, Greg Rostami has posted in the secret sessions about Cosmos website...

I'm confused how people can deduce anything from the demo? I think it's pretty miminal (for good reason). I'm confused how crimping explains anything seen on that demo? After all, the spec decides where to put all the cards...

Ok guys, just spoken to Greg, and my method was wrong, so I now have my own version, and he said it should be done in just less than 7 hours, let the count down begin!!!

I agree. You just cant get the right solution out of that demo. How would you find out how it is done, if you don't even see the move executed?

At least one person agrees with me.

Hi Guys,

I just discovered this thread. Here are a few answers to your questions:

The lady in the video is NOT a magician.
A Hindu Shuffle has NOTHING to do with the method of COSMOS.
I looked at the video and I could only count 24 cards, 26 cards has NOTHING to do with the method of COSMOS.
I spoke with GKurtz, and as he's stated his method would not work.

Guys, please remember, we are no longer in Secret Sessions, if you have any theories feel free to PM me or discuss them amongst yourselves, but please don't post publicly. It just puts down my trick, and makes it seem like it's trivial to solve.

The COSMOS website will be going up today. We are just trying to work out a few last minute bugs before we go public.

Now back to work,

Greg Rostami

Thank of - EDITED!(?)



P.S. After reading Greg's above post I have edited my post.

Greg Rostami has a point here. I agree with him on this.

Whether or not you have figured out how to perform this effect, don't post exact details here.

Just post in secret sessions or, better yet (for Rostami at least ) wait few hours and then download his effect.

Also, if you figured out the method because of the various hints given in the secret sessions by some of us and then by comparing those hints to the free demo you downloaded, you should still buy Rostami effect as a thank you. Just my opinion, in this specific case.
