comments = I'm sorry, but, for all the problems I have solved before, this one, utterly and completely, just blows me away.
How did you do it? I notice that the answer is quite clear for some people. Could somebody merely tell me what other components this problem has, other than a row of six cards and a set of six buttons? I don't know how this thing appears to be right so often, and I am at a loss for a clue.

comments = What are you talking about??? This trick does not work! I've tried it numerous times and every time, it has been incorrect.

comments = My best guess would be that it's more sugestion than anything...you notice them all, and then when one is missing, you think 'I was thinking of that one!' But I was very careful to remember which one I was choosing and it still worked...creepy. What's the trick?
BTW, it can be foiled by thinking about two cards at once. Thinking about both of the queens removed one of the jacks.

comments = This is sooooo easy to figure out! As one stares at the chosen card, the secret heat sensors (placed by the government)in all monitors delivers the axis coordinates of the card chosen. You've got to get up pretty early to fool me!

comments = First it psychologically analyses the mouse movements, to determine which card you selected. It then prints the card it guessed on a piece of paper, burns the paper, and buries the ashes. Then it chants a magic ritual, and a flying pumpkin will magically inform the computer, if it had selected the wrong card, and in that case, which card it should have selected.
Finally, it removes the card, and just to be safe, in case the flying pumpkin made a mistake, also removes the other five cards too, and replaces them with completely different cards.

comments = I have no idea, pal. Are you going to tell me or what? Incredibly uncanny. Had me laughing at first and then after trying various techniques in order to throw off whatever mysterious force lies behind this madness I got frustrated and then downright amazed! Good show, boys.
You gonna let me in on the secret?

comments = hmm.. i tried it three times and it didnt work any of those times? just thought id let you know.

comments = Wow, I personally think that it might be using spellkaster. My friend thinks you totally change the cards so that none of the originals are there. But hes stupid and does not no the power of Radionic, and besides, hes a Independant.

comments = Its always the black jack thats missing
email = lamerica2003@yahoo.com
comments = I think the way that it works has something to do with playing around with the suits or colors of the cards. So you choose when you choose a black queen of spades for example, all you notice after the selection is a black queen missing, so the program only has to guess whether you'll pick a black queen, not which one. Am I getting warm?
comments = I wrote the 6 descriptors on a piece of paper. I know the order and which one is which. I have tried 20 times now and each time the card I selected was removed. It has nothing to do with timing, nor does it have anything to do with which ring I click. I am really stumped on this one.
name = viper
comments = Ok.....no thats CREEPY. I tried like 5 times and it wasn't wrong (shiver)
name = Danette
comments = it was rong. i picked the Q of hearts

email = yomummy@example.com
comments = There are three kinds of people as far as I can see : incompetent ("This trick does not work!"), morons ("it still worked...creepy") and people with more than two functional neurons ("in case the flying pumpkin made a mistake,"). Oh, there's also smart-ass cynical assholes such as myself.
name = poop factor
comments = I know how it works! good work on the algorithm boys. This is an ingenious trick

email = cgeiger@transy.edu
comments = Are people really this dense, or is there some joke I'm not quite getting here? I really hope it's the latter.
name = Shogo
comments = Firtsly it doesnt work, secondly it removes a card based on witch link you clicked.
name = stupid
comments = I find it hard to beleive the stupidity of the previous messages.
name = Matthew Tangradi
comments = I think it's an optical illusion
name = naythinbrynt
comments = hahahaha! i was fooled for the first time so i have to say that that was pretty funny. here's an algorithm for those who say 'it's not working' for them.
if working=no
then
set stupid=stupid+100
print "You are now at stupid level", stupid
end if
name = Alexandria
comments = How do you do that is there a camera or something? It's so cool.
name = Maria Cipolletta
comments = this trick does not work! At firs you had me fooled, but Harvey Katz was right
I knew right away which card i was going to pick next and then stared at another card and the card that i was staring at was deleted!
name = Panabelle
comments = Oh good Lord! I just read the comments of the people below and I have lost all faith in the intelligence of the human race. Hopefully, you only print the more...interesting responses.

name = Sarah
comments = Who would have thought? It's pretty logical, the cards have been flipped! See, If you turn your head you'll find your card. That's why your chosen card made it looked removed.
name = Tom
comments = I Know!!!
the spades and clubs have been swapped and you dont see some of them on the first one
name = Judy Dollyapoopoo
comments = I KNOW HOW IT WORKS secret government spys are secretly watching you while you pick a card and then they inform the other secret spies about what card you have chosen...then the ninja turtles quickly take out your card. and try to distract you with there special shell powers. and your card has been taken out of the pile...andd the governent spies laugh at you for being so stupid...and the ninja turtles go and kick the evil guys butt and then take ur card out if u try it again.
name = kewlperson
comments = first i pick my card. then after that the computer delets it!
name = How stupid is everyone
comments = its soo dam simple, i think telling u how it works would spoil the fun for everyone with brains the size of a testical. Jesus come ooooon.
