YOU are not an intuitive reasoner, apparently. As for me, about 30% of the time I figure something out, I have no idea how I got there. It's not "If a then b then c then d" for me. It's "if a and q and z and t then y."
There was an example of this in a mafia game at WisCon. *g* I knew who a bad guy was, but the only reason I could point to was "It's the way he's blinking his eyes."
Happens to me all the time.
Sorry, chum.
(Mind you, I don't do it in writing, because people have a fetish about it... but I apparently frequently do it to people with my plots. "What happened in this scene?" "Oh, isn't it intuitively obvious?"
