 		Card Trick
This is killing me. I got the first two stages but the last is brutality, or I am over-thinking it.

 		I'm also stuck on the third stage. I've taken a few screenshots so I could try to find the pattern, but the more I stare at them, the more it seems like there just isn't one...

 		Like in any magic trick, the key to the whole business is to where you should be looking, as opposed to where the magician wants you to look.

For the first fan (green), try looking

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
towards one end of the fan.


For the second (red), you might want to examine

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the area around the chosen card.


Finally, for the third (white), the card
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
at the far left of the fan
is key. It's almost as easy as playing solitaire!

 		I'm still not seeing anything out of place - the cards appear just random to me

 		Specifically,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the right end
. Does anything there seem similar to N's card?

You need only one card to get N's card. And SoItBegins has already said where to look for it.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The colour pattern is easier, I think. To figure out the number you need to use a 'mirror'.
