I have to admit that I get a kick out of the idea of building a resort on the edge of a black hole.

However, I have to question the wisdom of naming it the "Death Gate Resort".

Not exactly inviting! How would you even market something like that?!?

Well, like this I suppose:

But I still wouldn't stay there...but apparently 20K Gizureans booked the first flight out in my game. Go figure.

Just having some fun with GIMP.

If your Casino has a Dabo Wheel there, you might even get a contingent
of Ferengi from the Delta Quadrant!

Ha ha, imagine if the resort's graviton thrusters gave way, talk about crappy way to finish your vacation!

Death Gate Resort? For a resort on at the edge of a black hole? I think that is a brilliant name, and nicely marketable. You don't think toying with scary stuff is a good idea if you ever get a chance to build one of those?

I love the small print at the bottom
