That makes sense.Sure... but where's the middle ground between those two extremes? What about this player that is not established as having a habit of blurting out the right answer, has not established that his character does or does blurt things out or with what frequency, and might not have any idea whether the answer being blurted this time is actually correct or not?I don't think you did. You haven't said whether you would ask this player what their Int score and riddling skill are because of their action. Nor whether you limit the blurting specifically because of those score, though you have implied you would - I just want to be sure I'm not misunderstanding you. You also haven't said whether a player portraying their character this way is "fine" or not.</blockquote>
