You've stated a bunch of different ones, and generally change them
once the test is under way.

I'm sane and rational. To you, that's a problem.

That's right, you just want to design a test that's based on random
noise.
> I DON'T DO A SINGLE GUESS - THE OPTIONS INTERFERE
IOW, you have no special abilities, so you make a bunch of separate
guesses hoping one will be right.

IOW, you don't do anything like Zener cards, though you keep going on
about them.
> I DON'T DO HIGH ODDS - THE CONSISTENCY DROPS AND IT TAKES LONGER
IOW, you only do tests where you have a good shot at "success" by
chance alone.
> I DON'T GIVE ANSWERS YOU CAN QUICKLY CHECK - GOD DOESN'T PLAY DICE
You don't give answers at all for anything meaningful---you just give
meaningless "channels", then demand to know what the answer was so you
can claim "success" by some bizarre association game.

We're still waiting for you to even *try* on the second trial with
Brad. You don't "score" at all for most tests.

There's no point in doing that, as you'll just change the rules
midgame again, and whine about how nobody will test you. You can't
stick with a protocol long enough to be tested. You're a fraud, you
know you're a fraud, and everyone else here (with a few possible
exceptions) knows you're a fraud.
