It Can't Be A Coincidence Unnamed is an Anagram for Mundane
/Agreed.
A month after being asked, the Unnamed Magician was able to cobble together a performance for his old auntie as “proof” that the trick was real for Craig and Lloyd's latest podcast. But we already had performances for his family that didn't tell the whole story. This was just another one. I'm not sure what he thought this proved.
At this point, this whole thing is an IQ test. And if you believe the trick is real, you're riiiiigggght here…
Now, I thought I had put this to bed. But for some crazy reason, the supposed person who bought the supposed trick and was supposedly dissatisfied—despite the fact that the method met all the supposed conditions—hasn't contacted me for my offer to fully refund what he paid. Huh.
So here is my final offer. It is, essentially, a free money machine for the Unnamed Magician.
It's a wager. We can make it whatever you want. You say you just made $60,000, so that seems like a good amount. But I have a couple of backers who will allow me to go much higher if you want to.
You don't have to teach me the trick, you don't have to explain the trick to me—you just have to demonstrate the trick exists and it works as you say it does. Since you say this is a real trick that really works, you're not risking anything. I'm taking on all the risk.
If you want to come to New York, I will add your travel expenses and hotel into the wager. I have a team of people who conduct the focus group testing we do, and they would have no problem giving you as many opportunities to perform this trick as you'd like.
Let me guess… no passport? Can't come to New York.
Fine, I will have people come to you, wherever you are in the world. They will organize the testing with random people, and we can prove once and for all if you're full of shit or not.
This is so much better than my original offer, so I'm positive you'll be very happy to take me up on it.
Or you can fade the fuck back into obscurity.
Either way, I've done my part.
