^That sunny dome! Those caves of ice!
^And all who heard should see them there,
^And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
^His flashing eyes, his floating hair!
^Weave a circle round him thrice,
^And close your eyes with holy dread,
^For he on honey-dew hath fed,
^And drunk the milk of Paradise.
^
^ -- Samuel Taylor Coleridge,
^ Datalinks

Long ago we decided the last rec commons would be called Paradise Garden. As there is talk about ending the game, here it is! Lush forests, lovely flowers, quiet corners: everything you need to come to rest, alone or with your girlfriend/Japanese schoolgirl.

The list of drinks is well-known I presume:

Quote:

Beer

Heineken (cryo-cooled!)
Leffe (the best)
Velkopopovicky Beer (Czech beer)
New Caledonian Beer (For those who support CCCP!)

Xeno Inc. (tm) (c)

Xenobrew (Support ~~TKG's monopolistic ambitions~~ the Internal Affairs Department!)
Xenocoffee - with xenomilk and synth0sugar
Xenococoa
XenoBanana Split (Support Mr. Xenobanana's election campaign!)
Xenowater (from the finest Jedinican glaciers, melted by borehole warmth)

Wine list

Red Sol de Mesa (Wine out of the good sunny Mesa fungus - tastes fine with the sealurk)
White Yugo de Suelo Pholussia (A wine I can´t recommend completely; a little too sweet)
Doceagua (From the nearby Freshwater Sea)

Non-alcoholic beverages

Wild Cherry Pepsi
Water (Expensive! Our water recycling technics aren't perfected yet. I'd suggest a nice beer instead...)
P4PSI (For old times' sake. Enlightens your mind.)
Orange Juice
Longisland-icetea

Cocktails

Chiron-Redberry-Cocktail
Hive Mind Stuff (with honey)
Muroroa (makes you glow)
Bloody Miriam
Black Stuff (High quality label - we are not responsible for its content)
Kalimotxo (two thirds of Red Sol de Mesa, one third of P4PSI)

Other

Fungal Gin (A real killer!)
Talisker Whisky (Deirdre's treat)
Jack Daniels Blue Label (0.15 ec per bottle)
Salmiakkikossu (Salted licorice)

We have been thinking about serving warm meals. Handy for workers with a late shift:

Chopped Psych Worms with Lurk-Blood Sauce
Lurkroast with Monsoon-Salad
Fungus Tower Schnitzel with deep-fried worms
Pickled Spores

2000 spam posts in and still going strong.

The Emperor-making thread.

Method · April 8, 2003, 20:49

almost 200 years on planet and we STILL havn't perfected our water recycling technics!?
/me sighs
Looks like i'll have to unveil Xeno Inc.'s newest product ahead of schedule. yes, you guessed it - Xenowater! Made from only the finest Jedinician Glaciers, Xenowater provides you with soothing refreshment, and at a price that can't be beat! Black Stuff Inc's water of choice is Xenowater, and 9 out of 10 CCCP members prefer Xenowater over the next leading brand (which is nothing, i suppose

)

Xenowater! It's like regular water....only better

now i'll need thirty seven orange juices. mmmm, orange juice

EDIT: maniac, that picture is a lot nicer than the opening picture in the last rec commons (the picture of kass, if you'll recall

)

FlameFlash · April 8, 2003, 21:09

We're getting high up now!

/me grabs a Wild Cherry Pepsi and watches as construction for the sixth floor begins... wondering when they'll be a need to expand even further.

What? I thought I melted all of those! Apparently stealth boreholes put out less heat than the calculations indicated

Jamski · April 9, 2003, 04:02

Silly, you have to melt glaciers to get water. TKG is just using the energy for free to boost his evil capitalist profits. It's probably time to stop him once and for all.

*WoA orders a large round of Xenobrews*

Nice pic, BTW

Hercules · April 9, 2003, 06:37

Yeah nice pic. I 'll try that new xenowater for a change.

Actually, I was thinking of opening a Rec commons thread next with this picture:

Do you have any idea how scary it is to see a link to an image that contains "ant" and "early naked" !?

Especially if one knows that your first name starts with "Ant"!

Kassiopeia · April 9, 2003, 07:56

Baka! The file is called "deirdre_nearly_naked.jpg", under the directory /anttinor/images/ .

GeneralTacticus · April 9, 2003, 08:02

/me is waiting for Kass to be sued for false advertising.

Jamski · April 9, 2003, 08:16

Fooled me - BAH !

*Whipsers to GT about hiring a lawyer together*

ColdWizard · April 9, 2003, 11:13

/me slaps Kass around a bit with pure hideousness

I'll have two Xenowaters please

FlameFlash · April 9, 2003, 11:23

/me joins the WoA and GT coalition against false advertising by Kass.

DeathByTheSword · April 9, 2003, 11:37

/me buys all the heininken that is left and give everone a round! to the glory of the peacekeepers

Drogue · April 9, 2003, 14:35

PARADISE GARDEN

Thank you all, this is a real treat

I'll have a longisland iced tea please (and that really shoudln't go under non-alcoholic drinks

)

/me run's around with a gleeful look on his face to celebrate, and then invites a very cheecky French girl up to enjoy the view

Maniac · April 9, 2003, 14:49

/me gives everyone their drink, while a refreshing artificially-created wind is blowing through the leaves.
Now please excuse me, while I have several important matters to attend to.
/me runs away to dance naked among the trees.

You've got the idea

Let us all be free

Maniac · April 9, 2003, 15:16

Post 3000!

I finally made it. Ten days later than some of you predicted (I'm not such a big spammer

), but I'm Emperor at last!

Kassiopeia · April 9, 2003, 15:19

Maniac

Another exemplary spa... participator

ColdWizard · April 9, 2003, 15:23

/me turns the two Xenowaters into Xenosnowballs, which he then throws at Maniac and Kassiopeia

I can agree with that, but I'm thinking more along the lines of freedom from slavery to wasteful sensual desires rather than freedom from clothing

Oh, and All Hail Emperor Maniac!

Method · April 9, 2003, 15:26

hurray! A free xenobrew for all the ~~spammers~~ emperors!

Drogue · April 9, 2003, 15:27

Nice one Maniac

Little while for me, but I might make it sometimes

Kassiopeia · April 9, 2003, 15:39

DBTS , this link is for you... at least you are the one I thought of the moment I saw that headline

/me pokes ColdWizard with a cheeky sod *

Oh, and btw CW, weren't you the one who said I couldn't stay away from IRC? Well, I've been gone for two days, and plan to be gone until next Monday :p

Kassiopeia · April 9, 2003, 18:13

/me kicks the Poly database for not registering his last post on the DG forum index *

and it's been boring as crap without you

... so basically nothing has changed

Method · April 9, 2003, 20:15

seriously! we need you! i was discussing the constitutionality of that borehole with drogue and we lacked a (unbiased) judge!

FlameFlash · April 9, 2003, 21:34

Congrats Maniac.

Yea, Kass would be good for that (but isn't he a greenie?) ... I'm not sure I'm qualified as unbiased, but perhaps... game-wise I'm heavily biased towards leaving the hole there, RP-wise I'm heavily biased towards tearing it down
