Default Re: Number Intuition

I don't see why the Detect needs Analysis (he doesn't analyse those numeric values, he just knows them) or Cosmic (nothing Cosmic going on, he's just detecting stuff).

But I can see some case for this needing to cost a fair number of points. Played right, it could be highly profitable - the guy can win a lot of trivial-to-medium bets, for a start. And there's all sorts of jobs and tasks he can do almost perfectly.

But you may need to assess how uncanny this ability really is. Cam he glance at a closed box on a table, and determine its weight? If so, he can tell whether it's got anything in it. Can he look into a room and measure how many people there are in there? If so, well, not much need for careful searching, is there? Can he look into the clear night sky and measure the precise distance and relative velocity of every star?
