You may find this hard to believe, but the fact that you did that very likely reduced the depth and specificity of the reading you received. You'd only have been able to get a reading that was capable of leaving enough room for doubt to sufficiently validate the skeptics.
If, on the other hand, you committed in advance to keep the reading totally private or to only share it with those who'd naturally expect a strong reading, you'd probably have gotten a more specific and detailed reading, one that a skeptic might have considered way too accurate to be a cold reading.
The best and most accurate information I've received is that which I never shared publicly (and never intend to, except with people I'm certain can handle it without it being a blow to their reality). This keeps the skeptics' dampening field out of the equation and allows for much more accuracy and detail to come through.
