Sheldon (played by Jim Parsons) made no secret of his eidetic memory during his time on The Big Bang Theory, often using it to undermine his pals Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki), Howard

Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Raj Koothrappali (Kunal Nayyar). Perhaps the most memorable instance of this came in the fifth episode of season three, The Creepy Candy Coating Corollary, on

CBS in which Sheldon disrupted a game of Mystic Warlords of Ka-ah. As the gang try and teach the game to Penny (Kaley Cuoco), Sheldon can't bite his tongue. Penny struggles to know what

to do with her next move, prompting Sheldon to interject and tell her there's no possible way she could win. Sheldon cites his eidetic memory as he begins to reel off all the possible

cards in play and how they will likely be played in the subsequent rounds. However, a key scene in Golden Globe-winning sitcom's fifth season appears to contradict Sheldon's

ability to recall such features with such precision. READ MORE: BIG BANG THEORY: MAYIM BIALIK REVEALS EXCITEMENT AT AMY FARRAH FOWLER 'RETURN' Titled The Wiggly Finger Catalyst,

Sheldon decides his life choices will be determined by dice used typically in Dungeons and Dragons. While at dinner, he tells his pals: "I've decided to make all trivial decision

with the throw of the dice. "Thus freeing up my mind to do what it does best, enlighten and amaze." Sheldon proceeds to make his dinner choices based on the dice's numbers as

well as grow a moustache and dish the dirt on Raj's romantic life. However, one fan has opened up the plot hole with this system and how it appears to go against his edietic memory.

Taking to Reddit, Big Bang fan cornerboyfrank8 explains: "In Season 5 Episode 4, Sheldon uses dice to answer trivial choices that he encounters every day so that he can have more time

to think about more important things. "Everytime he rolls the dice, he looks up the outcome of his roll on a piece of paper. "However, he has an eidetic memory so he should

memorize everything he had written on the paper the day before."
