[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6107337, member: 7006"] Why is that necessarily a flaw? Some people have just really good instincts. They just have that "danger sense" that gives them a tingling sensation when something doesn't seem right. It doesn't follow though that those same people can in any way intellectually identify problems they see in front of them. By the same token, there are people that if you handed them a Where's Waldo book and told them to find Waldo in a particular picture, they could do so... but wouldn't necessarily realize that he could be found in EVERY picture of the book (if he wasn't told it was a Where's Waldo book to begin with.) And each character probably knows what kind of person they are and what kind of perception they're good at (whether they're strong at actively finding stuff that are hidden, or just good at sensing when things seem wrong). And thus those who want to get better at one or both of those ways just train themselves to do so by taking those particular skills to help. If you're someone who knows you just sense things better on instinct... there's nothing wrong with just doing that (when you can). You're not "penalized" for going the other way, so much as you are just going against your particular strengths. [/QUOTE]
