If they were unaware then no save could be made. I have problems with marks and such but its bookkeeping issues and not so much a metagame concern.  If an enemy made some gestures off to the side somewhere and then it came to your turn and the DM informed you that you are now paralyzed you might ask why. What if he told you the guy making gestures a short time ago was casting a spell on you and it was your fault that you didn't announce that you were trying to save? That would hardly be fair because as a player, what is happening has to be relayed so that it may be acted upon.</blockquote>
