The [[Clan Rumpus Room]] is a place where members of a [[Clans|clan]] can go to exercise and train. It replaced the '''Clan Gym''' on October 17, 2006.  There are several pieces of furniture that can be put in the various spots in the rumpus room, varying in price and functionality.  Each spot can have one of three types of furniture.


'''First spot'''
The [[Clan Rumpus Room]] is a place in the [[Clan Hall]] where members of a [[Clans|clan]] can go to, well, rumpus.  Possible rumpus activities include such things as picking up some free meat, scarfing some tasty snacks and sodas, training up character stats, catching some cool tunes, playing the awesome [[Mr. Klaw "Skill" Crane Game]], or just kicking back and recovering from the wear and tear of adventuring.  All these rumpus activities require that a member actually visit the Rumpus Room (and click on the appropriate piece of furniture) to participate and benefit from all the rumpussing.  Other rumpus room benefits automatically accrue to you at [[rollover]] without having to actually visit the Rumpus Room.  These include collecting [[Extra Rollover Adventures]] and [[Extra PvP Fights]]. And "rumpus" doesn't sound like a word anymore.


[[Calendar of Loathing]] (Members receive 3 extra Adventures per day)
The good news is that it's all free! (Except that some activities cost an adventure).  The bad news is that you can't do any of these things unless your clan has first purchased the requisite piece of furniture.  Additionally, clans are limited as to what furniture can be purchased: each spot in the rumpus room can have only one piece of furniture. This piece of furniture is selected from a short list of pieces that are unique to each spot.  For example, a clan can fill their Unused Outlet with [[A Soda Machine]] ''or'' [[A Jukebox]] ''or'' a [[Mr. Klaw "Skill" Crane Game]], but may never have [[A Soda Machine]] ''and'' [[A Jukebox]] or have multiple Soda Machines.  Consequently, clans will have to make some hard choices as to their preferred furniture.  These choices are not however fixed in stone - a replacement piece of furniture can purchased for a spot that already has furniture, but the old furniture is destroyed to make way for the new.


[[An Infuriating Painting]] (Members receive 5 extra PvP fights per day)
Finally, some furniture has a daily limit that governs how
often it may be used by each clan member: meat plants, the [[An Awesome Ball Pit|Awesome Ball Pit]], [[A Jukebox|Jukebox]] and the [[An Old-Timey Radio|Old-Timey Radio]] may only be used once per day by each member, while the [[A Soda Machine|Soda Machine]], the [[A Snack Machine|Snack Machine]] and [[Mr. Klaw "Skill" Crane Game|Mr. Klaw]] may only be used three times per day per member.  None of these accouterments are available to new clan recruits on their first day in a clan - this prevents "clan hopping" in order to gain extra uses of limited use clan furniture.


[[An Exotic Hanging Meat Orchid]] (Members can pick 1000 Meat per day)

The Clan Rumpus Room is a place in the Clan Hall where members of a clan can go to, well, rumpus. Possible rumpus activities include such things as picking up some free meat, scarfing some tasty snacks and sodas, training up character stats, catching some cool tunes, playing the awesome Mr. Klaw "Skill" Crane Game, or just kicking back and recovering from the wear and tear of adventuring. All these rumpus activities require that a member actually visit the Rumpus Room (and click on the appropriate piece of furniture) to participate and benefit from all the rumpussing. Other rumpus room benefits automatically accrue to you at rollover without having to actually visit the Rumpus Room. These include collecting Extra Rollover Adventures and Extra PvP Fights. And "rumpus" doesn't sound like a word anymore.

The good news is that it's all free! (Except that some activities cost an adventure). The bad news is that you can't do any of these things unless your clan has first purchased the requisite piece of furniture. Additionally, clans are limited as to what furniture can be purchased: each spot in the rumpus room can have only one piece of furniture. This piece of furniture is selected from a short list of pieces that are unique to each spot. For example, a clan can fill their Unused Outlet with A Soda Machine or A Jukebox or a Mr. Klaw "Skill" Crane Game, but may never have A Soda Machine and A Jukebox or have multiple Soda Machines. Consequently, clans will have to make some hard choices as to their preferred furniture. These choices are not however fixed in stone - a replacement piece of furniture can purchased for a spot that already has furniture, but the old furniture is destroyed to make way for the new.

Finally, some furniture has a daily limit that governs how often it may be used by each clan member: meat plants, the Awesome Ball Pit, Jukebox and the Old-Timey Radio may only be used once per day by each member, while the Soda Machine, the Snack Machine and Mr. Klaw may only be used three times per day per member. None of these accouterments are available to new clan recruits on their first day in a clan - this prevents "clan hopping" in order to gain extra uses of limited use clan furniture.

The Rumpus Room replaced the Clan Gym on October 17, 2006.
