Have you ever had a strong feeling about what would happen next? Perhaps you guessed correctly, remembered the moment, and wondered whether it meant something.
PrecogTrainer starts with that curiosity. It gives you a simple way to make choices, record the results, and see how your guesses compare with chance over time.
You do not need to believe in precognition to try it. You might be interested in intuition, enjoy a guessing challenge, or simply want to measure yourself. Those are all good reasons to begin.
A simple question, repeated
Each round presents a target card and three possible positions: Left, Middle, or Right. You choose a position, confirm your choice, and then see the answer. Your confirmed choice is recorded before the answer is revealed to your browser.
With three equally likely positions, the chance baseline is one correct answer in three, or about 33.3%. Your own percentage will move around as you play. A good streak can be exciting; a disappointing run can be frustrating. Both belong in the record.
Keeping that record is part of the point. A memorable guess is an interesting experience. A history of guesses lets you ask a more precise question: what happened across all the rounds, including the ones you might otherwise forget?
The name includes “Trainer” because you can return to the exercise and develop a consistent practice. We have not established that practicing improves precognitive ability.
Your results, your choice to share
Personal measurement comes first. Public comparison is optional.
The launch leaderboard shows a chosen display name, completed rounds, and percentage correct. Players qualify after at least 100 completed rounds and must opt in with an approved display name. Automated moderation helps keep public names free of hateful, derogatory, and otherwise unsafe language.
The minimum makes comparisons less dependent on a handful of guesses. It does not make a score statistically significant, and appearing near the top does not establish a special ability. When many people play, some will have unusually high scores through chance alone.
An ambition worth explaining
We also hope to develop a carefully documented investigation involving a large number of forced-choice rounds, potentially millions. The question that interests us is whether a person's earlier choice could be related to information they encounter in a later reveal, beyond what ordinary chance predicts.
That is a proposal to investigate. Turning it into a study requires a protocol, independent review, an analysis plan, and separate participant information and enrollment. Ordinary practice and leaderboard participation do not enroll you in a research study.
These articles will share the thinking behind the project: research summaries, methodological decisions, development updates, and commentary. We will identify which is which and link to the evidence behind scientific claims.
For now, the invitation is straightforward: bring your curiosity, make your choices, and look at the whole record. You can enjoy the experience while keeping an open question open.
