When Thanksgiving rolls around this year, maybe figuring out a way to use common Thanksgiving foods (Turkey, rolls, etc.) to create a trick?

Hello to all, new member, first time poster, long time collector

I've got no cardistry or magic skills other than family basics(been practicing swing, swivel, & rotation cuts, and have2 card tricks, cups and balls, and making money disappear from bank account and reappear as new decks of cards as a collection of my skills).

How about a Family Photo night? I am new and have not read through everyone else's ideas yet, so my bad if a repeat.

Is there a contest every Saturday?

 

[itsnotn8]

Yes, pretty sure.

Is there a contest every Saturday?

Yes, there is, at 7 pm EST, if I'm not mistaken.

Perfect. Thank you.

Since the Archive has some older items, how about you take a vintage photo of a deck of playing cards, and you win any one item from the Archive (of the persons choice), and 3-4 decks (in-stock) of their choice?

Excited to see what 2021 brings to the SNC and T11!

Since I’ve been on Theory11 (which has only been 6 months), I’ve entered pretty much every Saturday Night Contest, and I’ve noticed a theme. Tricks, Flourishing, Random, and Photography are the categories of all the contests I’ve seen. So, I thought it would be cool to suggest another “category” of SNCs: Cinematography. I think it could open up some really creative ideas and themes for contests. Just a thought!

P.S: Maybe this kind of contest has been done before and I just wasn’t here to see it. If so, maybe some more of those contests?

I hope for more paticipants and contests where creativity is the point of competition. I think myself that one solution might be to give a bit more time to the participants. A contest that starts on Thursday evening or Friday evening and ends on Sunday evening might give enough time to some of us and bring more entrys, otherway I think the contest is lots of fun and i am very thankful for it.

I second this idea. I would hate for theory11 to discontinue the creative contests with seemingly less participation. I think many more people could and would participate if given the whole weekend to create content. Often, I find that I want to participate but juggling work and family responsibilities on Sunday, I just am missing a couple needed hours to work out a good enough idea.

The next saturday night contest can be "Tell us what you think the next SNC should look like", and the best idea wins the SNC.

this is absolutely hilarious

 

[Duo JD]

absolutely love the idea of weekly SNC, here a few ideas of mine:
- most creative storyline in a magic trick (à la Justin Flom style card hit wonder)
- best poem on the newest deck release
- stop motion
- photo of balancing as many decks as possible on the head
Thank you for hosting them, really appreciate it!!

- best poem on the newest deck release

I really like this idea! This can be for the new avengers cards, etc. This will really bring out a creative side.


Another idea is to test people's actual knowledge, like how much they can figure out of a trick

 

[SudarshanSorcerieS]

I thought of an idea while asleep lol. Maybe a competition should be to perform a magic trick that theory11 has released and who can perform it like the author magician of the trick, gets the prize.

I like the idea, but maybe instead of encouraging to exactly copy the creator, encourage an original take on the trick and have the creator pick the version he likes best?

I got my first deck at Barnes and Noble for my wife and I’d dating anniversary as a gift! I then have gone on to collect all of the film theme card and flaunt them to all my friends!😂

Bought one of your amazing decks in a store and then checked out the website. Best decision ever!
