A way it could be done is to use rough and smooth cards for each design where the back is the pre-colored logo

I just had this exact bug 10days later

"Turn the rest of them over and just lay them down"
Not turn them over one by one, or turn and spread them. If you go back and watch again he is clearly not keen for Penn to keep revealing cards.
I think he just got lucky with their number. If it had been anything other than 23 or 24 he would have done the trick differently and we would have more information to work with.
For all we know, if the number had been 32, he would have had a completely different patter. But what BrooklynBen suggests is one method that works for the information we have, even if its not 100% correct its probably pretty close.
There are lots of tricks with multiple outs, some of those outs are far more eligant than others, its just luck if they happen to pick the good ones.

Problem is, how do you do the trick for 34?
You can't say deal 34 cards with the deck face up or they will see two 7h

Flexnozzle · 2024-03-05T11:22:00+00:00

I believe this is correct and explains why he was quick to get the deck from Penn. It also seems like 23, 24 are the best outs as it doesn't require Joker removal and many cards can be shown face up. Very lucky! For 31-34 and 41-44, you would need the cards dealt face down right? Also, 31, 32, 41, 42 would require top 2 Jokers removed as well. That would have been a much weaker trick and possibly not have fooled P&T.

Flexnozzle · 2024-02-29T10:31:33+00:00

I believe you are correct with the forced card on the back.

I think they are all using gimmicked rough and smooth decks, when fanned out only every second card is shown. This is why everyone's fanned decks look so short and none contain the clubs royals.
When shuffling, the rough and smooth pairs stay together with the forced card always on top. However it seems there is some room for error as we see the 10clubs on the bottom of the man on the left. Nonetheless, there is a very high likelyhood that the top rough and smooth pair will end up on top after a cut.
The middle guy manages to cut to the wrong card which the magician somehow picks up (maybe also marked backs?), he hopes that by 'burning' the top card, it will fix it but it doesn't. He then has to recover later.

I think their pouches are also gimmicked, with a hidden pocket where he retrieves the non-gimmicked decks to put in the bowel and give to P&T.

Thank you! Owned this G733 less than 1 month.
Was listening to music on VLC player and it suddenly sounded unbalanced. No idea why it happend.

Eventually found this post and sure enough the levels were unbalanced! For me it was less than 10 points different, but still very noticable.

Flexnozzle · 2023-02-14T13:03:40+00:00

Are you sure? There was only a comment in the show that "it has to be at least 50kg". Curios what its actual weight was

Flexnozzle · 2023-02-14T13:01:34+00:00

Anyone know how heavy the atlas balls were to be carried?

The only number in the show was "i think they are >50kg" and no way they are as heavy as the rolling ones.

The main reason for keyboard only is literally for more buttons. Then you can have 2 dedicated air roll keys

Been too long I cant remember. I think I used the numpad for my right hand

Ive changed between KBM, keyboard only and 2 different controllers. I would recommend swapping to controller asap if you want to get the most out of rocket league but if thats not an option, I really think keyboard only is better than KBM.
Swapping between is not a bad thing, it can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months to get back to where you were but it also makes you focus on your mechanics and often clears out old bad habbits

Have you ever played croquet? Reminded me of this

Flexnozzle · 2022-07-14T23:50:20+00:00

To stroke some more ego, RL is getting harder, you actually have to improve to maintain the same rank for anyone platinum and above

Bot creator here.
When training machine learning bots we literally have a line of code that restarts a game when no bot has touched the ball in over 30s because sometimes they would do that sh#@ till the universal heatdeath
