I'm an explorer.  I did the bartle test and came out EAS.  I 
don't need or want rewards based on the number of rooms I have 
explored, rooms are only there to provide a canvas for my real 
work of trying to get the mud to give up its secrets to me.  In 
a rich and varied world with lots of little special forgotten 
code routines and zones, I don't need any experience or reward 
at all for my efforts, the discoveries themselves are what I 
crave.  If I needed a little mud-diploma telling me how much I 
had seen, I'd be AES instead ;)
