[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 6552183, member: 10479"] So, you're coming around on the idea that a PC can have lapses in memory as all people have, like forgetting something in a moment due to pressure (how many test takers have re-thought over a question after a test and know they missed an answer they knew or not recalling someone's name until they are moving away after you should have greeted them). I think it is fair to allow failed checks to represent forgetting in a moment and I wonder if the requirement for "new" or "substantial information" might be too restrictive. Odd, I thought I was agreeing with your previous stance on how knowledge checks would work. So, in this case, the player looking for more information to improve his knowledge and thus gain a retry on knowledge check of what a mural might mean requires a perception check (I was going to just give the player an automatic, since he specifically asked for seven-pointed stars).
