Army of Club Penguin

Hello ACP! I am the new contributor on the site, The Jungle N. If you don’t know what a contributor is, it means that you can’t do much on the site. Only post. And your posts have to be approved by an editor or admin. I hope to make it to author and one day editor on this great blog. Let me tell you a little about myself. I’ll give a history, just like Boomer and Shab did.

I joined Club Penguin on November 1st, 2006. I first heard about Club Penguin from my friend who’s CP name was Pachydino. He said there was a game called Club Penguin and if you went to a room called the Dojo at 11 PM on Halloween, and stayed there for an hour, a giant pumpkin would appear, blow up, and rain million dollar coins (I now know that you can only have 1 million coins, unless you hack). I believed him, and begged my parents to let me get a Club Penguin account. They said they would, but my computer wasn’t working. They didn’t want me going down stairs to the other computer and starting something when it was so late (I was barely 9, so 10:30 was late). So I missed this “Pumpkin Bash”, but I did join the next day. 3 days later, I got my membership.

I got my first taste of army warfare in January 2007, when a group of people dressed in a pizza uniform and a black color started flipping pizzas. There were around 20 of them, and I joined in. They called themselves the Pizza Invaders and everyone started throwing snowballs at us. I was the first of the Invaders to return fire, and then they all joined in. After a few minutes, we disbanded. I thought that it would be the end of my army career right then. But I was far from right…

In early April, I was wandering around a server called Mammoth (I had known Mammoth was the place the rich and famous hung out). I went to the Dojo, and there were a group of red and black penguins. I called them the Cool Dudes, and dressed up like them. There were only a few of them, and they just sat there, so I got bored and left. A few days later, I logged on at my friend Mier Cat 58’s house. He saw what I was wearing and said, “YOU’RE UMA?!” I asked him what UMA was, and he said it was an evil gang of people that attacked innocent penguns. I began to take an interest in these mysterious soldiers, and searched Mammoth for them.

My search came to an end on  April 14th. I went to the Dojo, and you can guess what I found. A few green penguins fighting off a riot of UMA’s. I asked one of them to come to my igloo, and found out he was a General. I forgot his name, but he promoted me right to General, and told me the uniform and leader. Everyone in my class, by that time, played CP. One of them wanted to show me a site one time during indoor recess. It was pinkmafias.wordpress.com. I told him Pink was the leader of UMA, and so I found the site. Just in time to know when to go to the May 26th war. I arrived an hour early, but was told the fighting had already started an hour before that! I fought hard, and I thought the UMA had one because I left early. This was the first time I saw Mpenguin123, ad Pink Mafias.

Armies died down for me after Pink left. But in late August, I was at my grandparents’ house in Vancouver. I was bored, so I went on the computer and checked out the site of the ACP, which I thought was evil. As a looked around the site (the current post was about the creation of the Army Council), I realized that Oagalthorp was pretty smart, and ACP was organized and not as evil as I thought. I joined on August 28th, 2007. I have been in ACP longer than the leader, co-leaders, and 3rd in command.

After some brief WordPress experience at umaarmy.wordpress.com, my UMA site, which was very disorganized and casual and that I had lost the password to, I created acparmy.wordpress.com, my ACP site, on September 2nd (major run-on!). I stuck with ACP through the GPR conflict and was at the party that the UMA so rudely ambushed in December. In January, when Oagal was making ranks, I got promoted straight up to General (3rd in Command!). I was in command of my ex-idol, Tomtwelve, and I was very happy about that. I first went on RPF chat for their practice wars, which I attended and sometimes lead, and after that I decided to go on ACP chat. I was a guest until Fort took over, and made me Brigadeer, the first mod rank.

During that summer my activity slowly faded. I was on the verge of quitting ACP many times. In fact, one time, I did, but only for a few hours (oh, and Fort fired me a few times too, lol). But when Kg took over, I knew things were going to be interesting, so I tried to stay. I vowed that I would never let Shab be a higher rank than me, and that I would quit, but when he became 2nd in command, I stayed, lucky for me. I knew Boomer would do a great job with ACP when he became leader. I had always liked him and he had listed me as the number one candidate for leader in his list of best possible leaders during the Kg election. Unfortunately, that was around the time I had to give up my site. I didn’t ahve the time anymore. Anyway, after I got the approval of Shab and Aber, I came up to Boomer on January 3rd, 2009, and asked him for a job. His words were, “Contributor, yes. Author, maybe.” I was extatic about that. I finally had my dream job, a position on the ACP site. I had wanted that ever since Oagal made the nation and had “site ranks”. And here I am, 16 month ACP veteran. Working on the ACP site, 4th in commander (General) of Club Penguin’s greatest army.

For those of you who despise me, or think I will corrupt ACP, or do a bad job, think again ;). Just wait and see, and don’t judge me on mean things I did in the Spring of ’08. I hope I will do just as good a job here as I did on acparmy.wordpress.com. I’ll post again about my recruitment rally later. Just so you know, if/when I become editor, I am reserving the color lime green, so NOBODY USE THAT! Just making sure, lol. If you know me, I have a picture of my name at the end of every post. But, as contrib, it won’t let be put pictures in so I’ll just color it.

March On!
