I'm seriously considering moving at least Danger Sense back to cinematic. I'm okay leaving Luck in metagame.

Perhaps threads like this should come up with shorthand for our various gaming paradigms.

Danger sense would alert a person to a magical trap they had no way of reasonably detecting. That ain't realistic.

If you don't like aging to be in games, then why are you even talking about Gurps aging rules?

Intuition can definitely represent mundane effects; very strong knowledge on a subject can lead to an intuitive understanding of problems and situations - this may be aspected, but that doesn't invalidate the mundane nature. I think the discussions of several traits (not just me), does demonstrate that there is not going to be a complete agreement on how to categorize every trait cleanly! |

But it makes characters do unrealistic things. GURPS isn't "simulationist". You're turning my side into a straw man. Lack of understanding what advantages actually do is not acting like an "insurance adjustor". It's basic understanding of math and R.A.W. Have you never read Murphy's rules?

Intuition aspected may be realistic. But many cinematic advantages are, I'd bet. But how should we label them? Discriminatory Smell is not meant for humans, but a limited form is perfectly realistic. I had it before diabetes. In between realistic and cinematic?
