Ok you all have probably seen this 1000 times but here it goes anyway.
i found this site that can guess what card you pick and it took me sometime before i figured it out:

see if you can work out how it does it. And PLEASE DONT POST THE ANSWER just say "yeah i know this thing and its really dull" or "how the hell they do that!?"


"To be or Not to be!!".... well, that depends on the grades you get.

sorry bro, I think most ppl on this forum have seen it. I know I started a similar thread sometime ago. In it I was informed someone else had already done it.

Perhaps its not the mind game that is so amazing, but the way it perpetuates itself on message boards.

I don't get it. It didn't predict anything.

At first it kind of blows your mind but have a closer look and you will see why. Majin they are not trying to 'predict' anything. They are simply trying to prove to you that they knew what card you were thinking about. It wouldn't work very well if you didn't think about a card at all but continued on anyway.

Here's another fine mess you've gotten me into...

???What I don't get is what the trick was. I just picked a card, and eye and that was it. I don't see what it did. BTW, it also said some percentage, 817.???I feel so stupid...

lol, I get it! ......I tried it again. And guess what happened? It got it wrong; I picked the black K. Subsequently, it said that it removed my card; which it didn't!! How exciting.

Look closer. It probably removed a black King but replaced it with another black King. Took out the Spades and Replaced with Clubs for example. I take it you don' play cards?

No, I don't play cards, or any sort of board game.
I tried it onece again, and it took away my card.
