The Recreation Commons - Sixth Floor : Temple of Planet
It's late in the evening. The sun is just going under, bathing the sky in a red light. You are walking near the Recreation Commons, slightly sweating due to the hot summer weather. Wandering without a real purpose, you decide to have a look at the recently opened sixth floor. You take the elevator. After all, sixs floors of stairs is getting a bit too much... The elevator doors open.
You stare in amazement. Dragon statues on your left and right, two burning fires in a sea of darkness... a mysterious atmosphere. Down the path you see an opening. You walk towards it.
You see a stone stairs leading upwards to a bright light. Never before have you seen such pure clarity in your life. A force seems to draw you upwards. Yes, to perfect enlightenment. You take the steps one by one, slowly ascending. The light is constantly growing stronger.
Finally you reach the top. A large hall appears before you... Fallen leaves everywhere... Huge pillars make you feel unsignificant.
You are amazed when you see a man lying down at one of the pillars, and kneel down near him. He still has a pulse. What would he be doing here? Perhaps he was searching enlightenment here and fell down right before reaching it?
Your train of thought is suddenly interrupted when you hear heavenly voices coming out of the gate before you. You try to see who they're from but you are blinded by the bright light. You get up and leave the man behind, walking to the gate. You tread closer and closer...
Just a few more steps and all your questions will be answered, all your desires fulfilled. One step... Two steps... You have passed the gate! You see... You see...
A full barrel of Xenorum!!!!!
“Hi! I’m Maniac the bartender. I give you a big welcome to Café "Temple of Planet", nicely tucked away to scare off unwanted visitors! Please don't mind the drunken pirate sailors sleeping outside, and simply enjoy our varied assortment of beverages.”
Have fun!

Well, if you can find the threads, then you just have to click on the number that says how many replies the thread has, then you'll see an overview of who posted how many times.

I've noticed there's more members that have signed up to the different factions. I wonder if it's due to my recuitment drives, but then I realise I got hit for spamming when I made those recuitment threads.
So what explains the sudden influx of sign ups?

Well, there are 101 ACDG members, but I wouldn't call them all 'members', since some do not post. I didn't realise you were in one of the teams, sorry
And what would I like? I'd like you two to stop posting in the 5th Floor

Always loves dragons. The mysterious atmosphere at the entry really intensifies one's desire for xenorum.

I wondered where that keg went but not complaining it was destined for here anyway.
Nice atmosphere, but it could do with a whiff of cordite and incense.
Well done Maniac

/me mumbles something about Drogue needing to raise his Perception rating above a 2.
I'm done posting in the 5th floor now that there's a turbolift from there to here and a way to guide everybody else up here from there as well.
And thanks on the lists of the stats, Maniac... maybe if I have time I'll add them up, but nobody hold me to that.

Ok, so I'm not a moderate spammer after all. It also seems like it'll take at least two more rec commons for me or Method to beat Kassiopeia's lead.
Thanks for the calculations HongHu!
