    Black holes a connundrum.

    First. A black hole isn't necessarily a "rip in space" it is a super dense star. Second. Lots of things are going on at the event horizon (limit of visible light) of a black hole. And in fact, a couple sorts of non-visible radiation are detectable at the event horizon. Third. There's nothing to...

    Hasbro Monitoring Enworld?

    They need to make money like anyone else. I'm certain that Hasbro has a large part of their resources dedicated to compiling and analyzing market data. How would they know what games to make and sell if they don't know who is interested in what?

When the players ask to use Sense Motive, I let them roll and I roll the NPC's Bluff check behind my screen (even if they're not lying I roll anyway). This is how I generally work...
