No this has nothing to do with any of that. The winner of that contest made a great move and he received his prize a while ago.

Yep your correct, that video was sent to Jason and Scott&Sean a while ago (I believe 3 years ago) which only had 1 fan in the sybil...the last Imposybil video that leaked obviously got into the wrong hands, and now I see the consequences of it yet again.

Now we need a 1-on-1 for it so it totally ruins the contest because everyone can do it

Look at Max321, every vid he does brand new stuff and he doesn't care to name/claim any of it!

No offence but do cardistry for another solid 5-6 years, practice 5-10 hours a day every day, come up with insane moves your really proud of and wait 'til De'vo says he invented every single thing you did; see if your argument is the same then. And you really can't talk back because you get permanently banned and trash talked for a few years in that forum.I also read the same thing as Sinful and was like "hey that sounds cool!" lol ya got me.
Seriously though, no reason on either side to get mad about this it just sounds immature. De' does this stuff specifically to stir you kids up so if it really bothers you don't make a big deal out of it.
Andrei will keep making cool vids of course. it "doesn't really matter who did what first it's whos doing it best" I think rich said that in his blog a while back and its a good point. At the same time its important to show respect for De' because he has released a ton of crazy-original material and is the reason for most of our starts in the artform.
But heres the thing that n00bs dont' seem to understand, its easily possible to assume lots of people have invented similar things independently of each other! so simmah down on "he did ______ 3 years before ____ had it in ____ video" honestly, who really cares? Most n00bs will give credit just to wherever they personally saw it first. Its not like we're talking about the first person to invent a spring or a giant fan, here.
besides it sounds like De' is talking about a different method from clipping fans in cards but he talks about forming them as passing the packets? anyways that sounds different enough to me that both people can claim their own stuff as original if its that important, personally I just do stuff and don't care to name or claim anything. Look at Max321, every vid he does brand new stuff and he doesn't care to name/claim any of it!

If you read the post, you would see he was talking about his "ultra hard and superior method" as opposed to "other people's inferior clipping the fan method".besides it sounds like De' is talking about a different method from clipping fans in cards but he talks about forming them as passing the packets? anyways that sounds different enough to me that both people can claim their own stuff as original if its that important,
Because 90% of what you do is claimed by Jerry and the other 10 would have to be named after certain body parts...>.>personally I just do stuff and don't care to name or claim anything.
Personal Discoveries..one of the stupidest things I've ever heard of. It's like saying...ALRIGHT GUYS...everything you create from now on will be considered a PERSONAL DISCOVERY...basically...if I don't like it..it's yours, if I like it....it's mine.
Either way, the IDEA/CONCEPT of doing a sybil with a fan was mentioned loooong ago as the link in De's post on HL says, Andrei, *may* have been the first to make a vid, but the concept isn't his and there is proof of that. If he did his research first before making vids and BS claims, Andrei wouldn't be so shocked when we tell him "his" concepts aren't original, same goes with many backhand/SSS moves you see nowadays, the ideas were out a loooong time ago (with proof mind you!). Now if Andrei, made a post with some original unheard of idea (kinda doubt that) and 5 years later someone makes a video, then Andrei has the rights to the move because he thought of it first (assuming they're original). More over, De's post about the Sybil Fanz contest was made BEFORE Imposybil was put up. Assuming we switch names and Andrei made the post, and De' made a video of the move a few days later, you all would still say "it's Andrei's move De' stole it!", even now that De' made the post first, you still say he stole the idea even though the techniques he mentions are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than the ones used in Andrei's vid! Sounds like some uber-biased BS to me. On top of that, I'd bet my money that if some dude made a video with "Andrei's" back of the hand concept and he said he'd done it before, I know none of you would accuse him of stealing sh*t. Again, replace the names, some guy makes a vid with the back of the hand concept started by De', he says he's done it and everybody's panties are in a bundle b*tching about how he stole the idea. Either way I think De's idea of "Personal Discoveries" would solve many of these problems.
