I have the power to assume the obvious. I also have the power to punch
myself in the face.
It's the ability to think that keeps me from doing either.

Hmm. And yet, you say you want to make a game. You seem to think that
you're magically gonna be able to do this without studying. I don't think
so.
Fact is, I've known people six sigmas out on the high end who needed to
study stuff to use it. And big fish in a little pond though you may be,
there's no way you're convincing me you're above genius level.
