The Black Hole
help
Inverse Crescent. You are drawn by a gradually increasing force towards MC. The measurement of the force (which we will call "Pull") is basically -LV, but it does not increase at a uniform rate. This is probably due to quantum. (The technical specialists among us can expand on this.) Periodic announcements on the current level of Pull will be made by Mission Control. The aim is to resist the increasing attraction to MC as long as possible. The higher your LV away from MC, the longer you can resist, but if your LV becomes greater than 186,000, then you break free of Pull altogether and spin off into outer wotsit, ending up god knows where. The first person to arrive at MC, obviously, loses the game.

*whispers* We've kept very, very still for ten days. Do you think the Black Hole has gone away?
Nice to see that Mission Control got my message and passed on the warning. Naturally I've now moved on to Heathrow (1) nudging a white dwarf podume towards the B.H. as I did so, in the fond hope that it will keep it busy for a while.
Errr...it this thing on? Ah! Hi, everyone, sorry for the lack of communication. Unfortunatly, we were held in a temporal stasis field due to a flux capacitor overload. We're back now. Pull has been measured at -4,096 exactly, making both Zones 5 and 6 unplayable. Today's special is Turkey Frickassee.
Oh dear. It seems that my next move is forced to 3044.02, and my LV is *gulp* Alperton...
Now arriving at Cockfosters. Aiiiieee! Zone 5 - this station is unplayable. LV is now 256,000. Houston, we have a problem...
