Live Webcast Event: Q&A, Mentalism & Deduction Demonstrations and A Cryptic Contest!

[image error]With two weeks left to Sherlock Holmes Week its time to release information on a very special live event and contest I’ve been asked to run. I’ve been contemplating this for awhile now and things are starting to get pretty exciting!


Following the revealing interview with Ross K Foad (here) a few weeks ago, I’ve been inundated with friends and fans around the world asking if I’d be prepared to do a similar live event with them. At the same time I’ve just become an ambassador for the Undershaw Preservation Trust. Seems like combining the two is perfect…


So yes, here we go! Stay with me because quite a few things are going to be happening at once to make this event the most fun it can be for all of you.


 


Firstly within the next 24 hours I will be mailing a special package to Emma and Leif at Sherlockology. This will [image error]be a major prediction for the live event. They will be guarding this package and are even talking about streaming the package live everyday until the event. In either case it will be far from my hands and safe in London.


To keep things above board and as fair as possible I will also be sending a curious ‘phrase’ to Curly from The Baker Street Babes. She has agreed to keep this phrase an absolute secret and to only reveal it during the coming event. That’s Sherlockology and The Baker Street Babes keeping me honest. Now let’s find out what all of this is for, shall we?


In honor of Sherlock Holmes Week and the Undershaw Preservation Trust I will be taking part in a live webcast event. I will be live on video answering your questions and talking about what it is I do and shedding some light on various subjects. During the webcast I’m going to be attempting two very exciting feats. You won’t want to miss these demonstrations! The details are as follows:


One week from today I’ll post a VERY cryptic question about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Home, Undershaw, on my Facebook page and the first person who answers it correctly will get to go ‘live’ with me at the end of the webcast for a very personal and hopefully amazing Mentalism & Deduction experiment for all to see. The winner will have nothing embarrassing take place or be used. If you haven’t joined my Facebook page already do so now and keep an eye out for the cryptic question to come.


The other demonstration I mentioned will involve randomly selected people from the chat window during the [image error]webcast event. The special package sent to Sherlockology and the curious phrase sent to The Baker Street Babes will both come into play and while I can never be 100% positive of how things will turn out, I’ve got a very good feeling that you’ll want to see what all of this will culminate into!


The rules are simple, if you haven’t already then like my Facebook page to keep an eye out for the cryptic question next week. Also it wouldn’t hurt to clue up on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s former home Undershaw. The question could be about the house, the people Conan Doyle entertained there (like Bram Stoker for example) or the recent court case fight to stop developers destroying the house. If you wish to take part and solve this, make sure you are prepared to join me on the webcast for some harmless fun, I promise.


The date of the webcast will be decided after next weeks cryptic question is solved. I am extremely excited about this event and the chance to interact with some of you. Luke Kuhns, author of ‘The Untold Adventures of Sherlock Holmes’ will also be a special guest helping to moderate and assist in the webcast. I urge everyone to share this and make it a point to join in on what should be a very fun experience for all involved. -Joe Riggs
