Precognition is a variant rule designed to speed up gameplay, particularly in games with more players. Players draw their new tile immediately after their turn. They do not reveal the tile to the other players until their own turn comes around. This rule gives players a chance to plan their move while the other players take their turns, and potentially speeds up the game. When playing with the Abbey and Mayor expansion, a player may play his Abbey even if he has already drawn a normal tile. That tile is then kept until his next turn when he must play it.

  • Precognition is the ability to sense events occurring in the future. The sensing may come as images, sounds, or often just as a general 'feeling'. Considered by some to be a subset of Time Ability. __NOEDITSECTION__
  • Precognition (also referred to as the Sight) was the psychic ability to see or foretell future events. It was possessed by rare humans and some demon species. Beings with this power were referred to as 'Seers'.
  • PRECOGNITION: (Level 0) There are many forms of this rite: Tarot reading, rune casting, haruspicion, and palm reading are all common. If practiced faithfully with an understanding of the forms and symbols, true insight can be gained, and the future may be revealed.
  • Precognition (予知 Yochi) is an ability to have prophecies or premonitions of the future.
  • When activated, this ability completely negates the damage from one successful attack against the user, within a 15 second window. File:Precog.gif
  • Precognition is the power to foresee possible futures and observe what may happen; before they happen.
  • Ability to see the future.
  • Precognition is the ability to perceive information (sometimes coherent or indicative) about the future before it happens.
  • Precognition is the ability to see the future.
  • Precognition is the ability to tell the future.
  • A number of terrans have displayed precog abilities—Octavia Bren had premonitions about what the future would bring in an emotional sense (a 'bad feeling') while Delta Emblock had precognitive abilities made manifest in her dreams. This ability allowed her to avoid being kidnapped by Project Shadowblade.
  • Precogntion is the ability to predict future events that may happen. Precognition involve the acquisition or effect of future information that cannot be deduced from presently available and normally acquired sense-based information People who have precognition have the ability to foresee possible futures and observe what may happen. As knowledge of the future invariably causes that future to change, visions of the future are subject to frequent shifting. While not being able to select futures or travel through time, these visions may assist in possible courses of action. This ability is related to premonition and prophecies.
  • Precognition is an advance ability displayed only by the Great Old One of Knowledge and Sorcerer, Eibon.
  • Precognition (speculative name) is the ability to see visions of the future.
  • The ability to perceive the future. It may be expressed in vague dreams while asleep, other times it can be clear and can occur at will. It may also be used as a form of "danger sense" to show the user that they are being threatened and from what direction it is coming from.
  • Precognition is a power to accurately foresee future events.
  • Precognition is a type of Legacy that allows the user to sense occurrences in the future. It most commonly manifests itself in dreams or visions. It is likely that these visions are subjective because the future is rarely ever set in stone. It is a Legacy probable to a Loric who come under the Lorien Star Sign Tavan.
  • Users have the ability to foresee possible futures and observe what may happen. As knowledge of the future invariably causes that future to change, visions of the future are subject to frequent shifting. While not being able to select futures or travel through time, these visions may assist in possible courses of action.
  • Samuel can force himself to predict the future and can do this in various ways. However this abiity can be hard to control. He dreams the future, experiences visions and can occasionally sense events instinctively. He was shown using the ability once when his dreams revealed the fact that Jason Young was a traitor.
  • Precognition is the ability to perceive information about future places or events before they happen. It is done by mentally scanning the various alternate futures, rather than using deduction based on current knowledge. Predicting which one of these futures one is likely to experience can never be done with perfect accuracy, since reality must diverge in order for there to be alternate futures, and hence, there will be divergent counterpart of the predictor in each of these alternate futures. Sometimes precognition is only expressed in vague dreams while asleep, other times it is clear and occurs at will and when awake. A being who possesses precognition is sometimes called a precog.
  • Precognition was the ability to predict future events by extrasensory perception. In assisting Kes in harnessing her mental abilities in 2372, Tuvok taught her a sensory focus exercise, assisted her with her precognitive skills, and helped her learn how to self-induce a hypnagogic mental state. (VOY: "Cold Fire") The Yattho, a species native to the Beta Quadrant, were known for their precognitive abilities which were of exceptional accuracy. (VOY: "Before and After")
  • Precognition is the psychic ability to know or sense something before it actually happens. This may happen in a vision, or in a dream (where it called premonition). This might lead to the sensation of Déjà vu.
  • Precognition, also known as danger sense, was a universal Force power. The ability of foresight was perhaps universal to the Jedi or Force-sensitives and was manifested in the form of Force visions of future events, guiding premonitions or warnings, and an inflow of prescience that helped the Jedi predict their opponent's movements. This ability in the Force was not restricted to the Jedi, however, as the Sith also were known to perceive direction and insight from the dark side.
  • Sam and Ava Wilson who are both special children that can see the future involving something related to Azazel, or any other of the special children. When it comes, they first get a headache, and then the vision comes.
  • Precognition (from the Latin præ-, “prior to,” + cognitio, “acquiring knowledge”), also called future sight,refers to perception that involves the acquisition of future information that cannot be deduced from presently available and normally acquired sense-based information The related terms, premonition (from the Latin praemonēre) and presentiment refer to information about future events that is perceived as emotions. The terms are usually used to denote a seemingly parapsychological or extrasensory process of perception, including clairvoyance. Various psychological processes, making no reference to psi, have also been offered to explain the phenomena.
  • Precognition är en förmåga där man kan se händelser i framtiden. Jonas Quinn kunde se händelser omger Goa'uld Mot, tack vare DNA resequencer som Nirrti utnyttjas till Jonas. Överste Samantha Carter spekulera om vetenskapen om denna förmåga. Att ja, om en person kunde veta position och hastighet för varje partikel i universum vid varje given tidpunkt, kunde de förutse exakt alla deras samverkan för resten av tiden. Men kvantmekanik blåser det ur vattnet. Enligt Heisenbergs osäkerhetsprincip, är det omöjligt att titta på en sub-atomära partiklar och vet både där det är och var det händer på samma gång. Ju mer exakt du fixa sin position, desto mer osäker du gör dess hastighet och vice versa. Det bästa vi kan göra är att beräkna sannolikheter. Således prekognition sannolikt bara handlar om att
  • Precognition is an esper ability also called future sight, and second sight, it is a type of extrasensory perception that would involve the acquisition or effect of future information that cannot be deduced from presently available and normally acquired sense-based information. In parapsychology, precognition (from the Latin præ-, "before" + cognitio, "acquiring knowledge"), a premonition (from the Latin praemonēre) and a presentiment are information about future events that is perceived as emotion. It along with Clairvoyance, Psychometry, Telepathy, and Telekinesis, is one of the 5 attributes that is are measured in their System Scan.
  • Precognition is the ability to see the future. The specifics of the ability, and whether or not they can act on the information they see to change the future, differs depending on the user and verse. The ability may only be useful for the short term; or it may be best for the long term. Precognition can allow characters to react to attacks faster than they'd normally be able to react to. The information it provides may be complex and intricate, or simple and limited, if not inaccurate, while other forms of precognition may be much more accurate.
  • Colonel Samantha Carter speculated on the science of this ability. That yes, if a person could know the position and velocity of every particle in the universe at any given moment, they could accurately predict all of their interactions for the rest of time. But quantum mechanics blows that out of the water. According to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, it is impossible to look at a sub-atomic particle and know both where it is and where it's going at the same time. The more accurately you fix its position, the more uncertain you make its velocity and vice versa. The best we can do is calculate probabilities. Thus, precognition likely only involves seeing probable futures. Therefore, some events seen may not actually come to fruition.
  • Precognition, also called Future Sight or Foresight is the psychic ability to visually perceive information about future events before they happen, as opposed to guessing based on deductive reasoning and current knowledge. It can come as a brief flash of the scene, or it may last longer. Sometimes, however, it can even be activated at will, within whichever time intervals the user desires (“the next six hours”, “tomorrow”, etc.), at which point the power becomes Selective Precognition or Selective Foresight.
  • Precognition is some sort of physical phenomenon which allows someone to see the future. Like anyone can see the future, what will there be? Will there be an explosion, will there be a war, what will there be? No one can predict what will happen in the future. That's what makes life completely unexpected. You'll never know what'll happen next. And that's why precognition is a myth, no one can exactly see into the future, if everyone did. Then the future would be changed. Which would be impossible because no-one can change the future, no-one, ever! Mostly if the future was changed, the world would immediately end. At least that's what I heard. But no-one can actually see into the future, that's just a myth, a power that is non-existent. A power that is completely fictional. But man would I
  • Precognition was the ability to perceive events which had not yet happened. Interestingly, Engin, a Time Lord, declared precognition "impossible" after the Fourth Doctor told him of his precognitive vision of the assassination of the Lord President. (TV: The Deadly Assassin) As with other "paranormal" phenomena, the presence of a time fissure could enable humans to develop precognitive powers. The Fourth Doctor attributed the special powers possessed by Ma Tyler (respected by locals as a witch) to the fact that she had always lived near such a time fissure. (TV: Image of the Fendahl)
