My anniversary of offically joining is Janruary 10th, but I have to go to a birthday party that day, so I’ll just post it now.
In the summer of 2007, I had a particular friend, named Howie. Since we were bored, and wanted to kill time, he suggested I make a CP account.. I didn’t know how to, so he then made an account for me called “Lieutenate”. It was a non-member, and naturally in my forgetfulness, I forgot the password to my penguin…
I had a cousin, (Well, he was just a close family friend, but we called him a “cousin”), was just quitting Club Penguin. His penguin’s name was Jedimaster17…and since it was a member, he offered to let me have it. Naturally I accepted.
Then,another friend of mine named “Alsdkj Gh”, had gotten into ACP. He wasn’t a registered member of ACP, just a CP fighter. He then, discovered the site right around the time his interest in Club Penguin was ending, and his obsession with other online games began..
He had enlisted me in ACP (without my knowledge as Lieutenate, and had gotten me the rank of Corporal..(he didn’t fill out the form all too well).
During the time he was into ACP, I was pretty much a n00b (back then I didn’t have Jedimaster17), and I saw ACP occasionally, and I used to fight, with them (or just chuck snowballs, and say random stuff).
He, then told me about the ACP site, which I googled, and I got. I then filled out the form, and recieved a commison from then ACP Leader Oagalthorp, of the rank Captain.
I was rather inactive then, not really going on chat…
Around the time of the transition of power between then Second in Command Fort57, and Oagalthorp..I got onto Fort’s temporary ACP Chat. I introduced myself as Jedimaster17, and got Fort to put me on his new ranks.
I’ve got to say, I was lucky in timing. If any other time after..I probably wouldn’t be a Captain, which believe me was a relatively good starting rank.
I became more active, and started coming to battles. I then met, Peugin21975, Capuzzi, Shab, Fort, Jcapp, Mr.Deedeldoo, Kg007, Fort57 and Abercrombe29.
Life was good, I got promotions from Captain to Colonel to Commodore.
Around this time, I had decided to run for Governor of Ice Breaker (present day mayorship), against a familiar face…Boomer20.
In one of the closest races ever, I campaigned like heck, and I made a deal with good ol boomer that aside from whoever was the winner, we’d still be friends, and whoever lost would become Lt. Governor.
Boomer won, by exactly..one vote…
I wasn’t too happy at losing, but I had learned a lot about ACP through the experience.
I had joined RPF then, as a Colonel (rank after General), and soon through Kg007, became a Marshal, to Head General (From Ziehen), and then RPF Navy Warlord ( via Furbur’s assistance).
No matter, I was promoted by Fort to Brigadier…mod rank! Mod rank, the first major milestone in my journey.
Needless to say, I was rather happy. Then, during the time of crisis when Fort57 rebelled against Oagalthorp (the first time) and formed VLA, I took a decidedly ambivalent stand. I made a jump by joining VLA (although I was altogether sure ACP would come together), and..offically stayed with ACP.
Fort came to terms with Oagalthorp, and ACP came back…
Order67, the next step. It was a rather unnecessary step (In my opinion), to get all the smaller armies together and incorporate them into ANTA. I was the CPUN Ambassador (the small armies alliance, who I had joined through a link on the SSACP blogroll. (It was the Navy, an army, who’s leader, Mr.Deedeldoo formed CPUN). I tried to get peace through, but then was told by Shadow2446, that it was just a ploy… Rather surprising, but I moved on..
The next month was a total blur. Head was ousted from ACP, and I was promoted to Admiral (rank about Brigadier).
Not much happened then…
I met Tostipablo, Luc, Shab (Those 2 I really didn’t know), Shnseymour (my then boyfriend), and others.
Next, the turning point in my career. Fort unexpectedly quit.. and appointed Dr. Nono Jr as leader of ACP.
Oagalthorp disputed this decision, and made Rapidy leader of ACP.
ACP reeling from the sudden decison, decided to hold elections after finding they didn’t want Rapidy.
In the poll, there was Kg007 (who I campaigned vigourously for), Shaboomboom who I was ambivalent to, and Rapidy, who I didn’t really mention… 😛 xD
Kg007 won by a slight margin, and became Leader. I was then annointed to the rank of Head Admiral.
I then ran for Senator of ACP (never quite expecting to win). I won decisively in my polls, easily becoming a Senator.
Then, afterward I ran for Top Senator (now Consulate), and against The Jungle N, Abercrombe29, and someone else..I forgot who (ONO).
Anyways, I won again :O , to my surprise and delight. And against The Jungle N, and Aber! People who had been in armies longer than I had, everything..
(I had formed a pact with Tiger, myself, and I forgot who). I think it was either Nakib, Rapidy, or Nodear.
Anyways, I had won ACP Top Senatorship, and RPF Senatorship. I was coming up in other armies as well.
Then..Kg quit.
I was facing the biggest race of my ACP Career.
Against Shab, the Co-Leader incumbent, Abercrombe29, and others.
I won my party’s nomination thoruoughly ( I had some 110 votes to tiger’s 50) I was facing Cooltiger413, Meggis1234, and I think Mitch. I forgot who again (ONO).
Then, in the final poll against Shab and Aber, it was rather close. (Between me and shab).
I had gotten RPF’s, some of Nachos, some smaller armies support.
Shab had equal amounts of support, so you can see why it was close.
I decided to accept Co-leader with Shab, something that I would come to reconsider again and again.
Co-Leader wasn’t bad, and I kept going. After having a fight with Shab, I was seriously considering quitting ACP forever. (It was about something stupid, I forgot what). Then I was re-added as 3rd in Command.
Oagalthorp returned again, and I became President (equal leaders with Shab).
There was the battle for Mammoth, and ACP was in turmoil. We hadn’t done that well..and yes, I’ll admit it, I never really liked the idea.
Due, to my inaction, Boomer20, mediated the disagreements, and then helped pull ACP back together.
He was then annointed as leader of the ACP, with Shab and myself as Co-Leaders.
I am proud to serve under Boomer20, and I’d like to thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to serve you guys.
These are the people who probably influenced me the most:
Kg007, Fort57, Abercrombe29, Ktman2, Peguin21975, Capuzzi (I’m sorry your retiring), Cooltiger413, Casiusbrutus, Meggis1234, Thebridgett, Nate95000, Miroos, Itachi6dark, Furbur27, Extreme the Great, Batista1822, Person (Sorta), Saint1994, Hattirck, Magic777, Shnseymour, Ctar, Solraida, Theoriginalme, Foxtails, Boomer20, Oagalthorp, Dr.Nono Jr, Rockstar24 (where are you?), Rapidy, Tostipablo, Ennbay, Purpur22, Biokid, Bigpeng, Clint00s (I’m moving to canada soon :P) Mazachuster, Sheila Gally, Kid Robot, Commandro, Ziehen, Omega, umm…… and a lot of other people.
Thank you for helping me become the soldier I am today. I’ve changed a lot from a noob, to what I am now. I’ve cracked up, torn up xD, and have had a lot of fun in the one year I’ve been in ACP.
I hope the next will be just as pleasent 😀
~Jedimaster17 , ACP President, RPF Warlord, CPUN Minister, Nachos Commander, UMA something, WW Brigadier, and other stuff, but namely ACP SOLDIER!
