The Fun of War

Posted on February 4, 2012 by mchappy2

Hey ACP.

So, we still find ourselves in the middle of a hard fought war. How long has it been now? Two weeks? Three weeks? Either way, it’s been one of the most back-and-forth wars I’ve ever been a part of. I like that. Some of you may become uneasy when we lose a few battles in a row, something ACP is hardly accustomed to, but to me, that’s the beauty of war.

Listen-we aren’t “falling”. Sure, right now we aren’t absolutely demolishing every army that comes our way, but where’s the fun in that? There’s no challenge. When we’re outstandingly larger than every other army in existence, we just keep on beating everyone and it gets to a point where nobody wants to fight us. Fun? Sorta, but not really. Sure, getting huge amounts of soldiers on Club Penguin for events is impressive, but it makes it difficult to fight any army. When both armies can’t fit in the same room, they can’t really fight. Then the battle becomes boring. Nobody likes boring battles.

I personally like when our army is getting big sizes, but not ridiculously big sizes. When both us and one or two other armies consistently can get 30+ at battles, that is what I like to see in armies. Those types of rivalries-when you have three armies that, on any given day, one could beat the other two- are the best for armies overall. It gives other armies a chance, you see. When we’re getting far better sizes than everyone else, it’s not really fun for anyone.

I always start posts with good intentions and end up ranting about the same thing the whole time.. meh. What I’m trying to say is this: don’t get so worked up about losing some battles. It happens. War goes back and forth, especially in a long one like this one may end up being. Hopefully we’ll come out on top. Let’s face it, usually we do. Given that we have two defenses this weekend, let’s go out there and do the very best we can. Members, listen to the moderators and owners. Moderators, do your job in keeping everyone organized if the owners aren’t giving orders. Fellow owners… may the orange pawn be with you.

And now for a little rhyme.

Snowballs are the key. Sometimes, I have to pee.
