No Game, No Life episode 1:
That being said though, their skill has limits, and I found it annoying that this NEET character who is clearly a shut-in, while yes being incredibly clever and great at games and logic and stuff, can somehow tell that the innkeeper is lying through his social interaction. He's a shut-in! he clearly is socially inept, as shown by his sisters jab at him earlier, so how does that make sense? He comes across as far too cocky and confident for someone of his status.
Well, from what I got was that if he thought it was a "game", he would win it. Normal social conversations do not have a goal, you can not "win" them. With the innkeeper however, he could "win" the best or fairest price. Because he thought it was a game with a goal he could do that. Also, someone with that attitude would probably not be to popular socially, you could see the innkeeper did not like him. So its not that he has great social or conversation skills, but that he can tell how to win if possible.
