BONJOUR!
Yeh, it was some language day or something the other week so I’m totally in that foreign mood. Also, my apologies for not being on last Monday and Tuesday. I was having fun letting my digested food find itself back up through my throat. Tasty, right? Splashy was under the impression that I died and was resurrected two days later. You were fairly accurate, I’ll give you that. This post will be filled with updates and all those awfully fun things you lovely folk enjoy. I hope.
HALLOWEEN
Ooft, we’ve just hit October. We seem to be flying through 2012 and it’ll soon be the end of the world like all those people keep telling us. Anyway, Halloween is swiftly approaching us and it’s a fairly big deal here in the army world. When I say it’s a big deal, really I mean an excuse to get snazzy graphics and wander around with pumpkins on our heads. Since Pochoma123, our graphics designer is slowly being swallowed by the retirement bug we’ll need to get a new one unless he’s still up for it. If you can do all that Leonardo Da Vinci skill then private chat me on ACP Chat or I’ll have to get someone useless like me to do it.
Club Penguin Army Central(CPAC) are once again holding their tournament, the Scary Showdown. Around this time last year, we were victorious in the finals against the Nachos. We had fought our way through the opposition and had won the tournament. This year, a twist has been added to the event. Two armies have to work together to win and then face off in the finals. We were teamed up with the Light Troops who are known to be one of our most frequent enemies of today’s ACP. I asked soldiers on chat and we were slightly edged on not taking part this time around. In the past week we’ve had three events with over 25 on Club Penguin so we don’t want to go straight into fighting a different army each day. Whilst the tournament is in place we will be having practice battles and Halloween events alongside tactics and recruiting.
CLOVERS
The clovers were introduced a while back now to help the owners complete promotions. They are basically a medal/point/reward system. You probably know the drill but if not, you collected a certain number of clovers(medals) at each event and had a grand total at the end of each month. You needed 30 clovers to have gained a promotion and if you hadn’t reached that target, you wouldn’t get one. It wasn’t exactly rocket science, was it? We didn’t want anyone to stop going to events as soon as they hit 30 though. We wanted everyone to give the ACP their all. Recently, the clovers haven’t really worked to our advantage and those who are active weren’t getting promotions. In turn, those you were barely attending events, were getting them. So, the conclusion to that is
❗ The clover system has now been sentenced to death ❗
Yesh, we shan’t be using any medal system right now. If you want to keep scaling the ranks, remain active and leave a comment at the end of the month telling us why you deserve a promotion. I do notice everyone that goes to events and I can recall who is putting 100% into the ACP. The owners will be looking harder into who contributes on chat, is active on Club Penguin and who helps the new soldiers.
Commander General Spot
After Empoleon has left our ranks, we need a new Commander General(3ic). The new one will most likely be an American as we need to strengthen our ownership slightly in that department. Casius Brutus who was a great addition to the owner ranks when he was promoted sadly may have to retire. He insured me before he went inactive that he would very much like to carry on in the ACP but can’t. He has exams coming up and they are priority for him at the moment. Unless he returns in the next few days, we’ll remove him from the ranks and probably get a retirement post afterwards. Comment with who you think should get the next owner spot(Division General preferably).
Soldier of Whenever
Yeh, basically all the Club Penguin chats and armies have had it at one point. Soldier of the month, week, day, second or whatever time they decide is most appropriate. Former leader, Flipper7706 gave me the idea to do it. I believe it can help spice up some friendly competition at events to be the most active and hard working. I will hopefully create a widget which can hold the current soldier who has gained the title. I will try and organize a temporary chat promotion(owner/modship) for the troop who has it. If I have some spare, I will give away a chat prize and the title will help massively towards promotions at the end of the month. I’ll try and spot someone who really deserves it this week to be our first soldier of the *insert time slot here*.
_____________________________________
Oh my word, Ek’s made a post with words in less than four months. This is fantastic. Yeh, I thought I’d log out of chat for a while so I could concentrate on my post. Apologies for not being on last week very much. I was sick and had rather a lot of bands and homework. Anyway, I’m back to my full activity which should be good. Comment with your thoughts on each topic that I’ve talked about. I need to go and hunt down a graphics designer. :Mrgreen:

Twingy stole my sausage roll.
The reason Ek spends so much time making a post is because he basically has to make babies…
…by himself. Your leader, ladies and gentlemen.
What can I say, they don’t just come from thin air.
Don’t be so harsh on yourself. You don’t need a graphics designer, you’re already one!
I personally really learnt tons of graphics off of this amazingly informative seizure-inducing video. <3 <3 <3
Oh, I’m too good XD
Boomer has it…
I think Tes should get it, he is American *wary*
AMERICA FOR THE WIN. 😮
ek. you should have told your food to stay down and shut up! thats what i do when my food wants to come out of my pie hole. I do the same thing when my body douse not agree with my choise of food and it wants to make a protest by my food geting kicked out the back door of my body in a wird way. but my body all ways wins when it wants my food to come out all wird like, out of my butt. thats were i am right now.

Slider for 3ic. http://i49.tinypic.com/5xv7n.jpg
I’m serious, ACP needs an experienced and active US person in the leadership. I want to complete what I started, I left too early and I want to lead, post, and improve ACP again.
If you choose to support me, and I manage to get 3ic and if the majority doesn’t like what I’ve been doing or if I haven’t been active in my first week or two I’ll leave without a fuss.
I will support you.
<3
ill support you slider
Thanks bro. 😀
I support Slider
Thanks Bur!
I’d support you :\
Thanks. 😀
EK, glad you are feeling better! Clover system was a good idea and motivator but certainly did not guarantee promo. Btw, this month for promos, can you please make a “Do You Deserve a Promotion” post so we have the opportunity to comment on our month’s activity. No offense, but Funks is in a different time zone as I am and even though I do many UK events, he doesn’t have a clue what I do when he’s sleeping…which is a lot. We need to be given this opportunity to comment because of the time zones. Last month was unfair, sorry to say. Btw, promotions should be based on activity, participation, attitude, willingness to help out, going beyond the call of duty, recruiting, etc. and not rank movement of the past. Remember, with Halloween, decorate your igloos and put ACP in there somewhere. Lots of trick-or-treaters visiting and it’s good exposure of ACP to all of CP. Welcome back and Good Health Always!
For 3IC I nominate Obama81000 if he commits to being very active again, which he has shown lately. He is amazing and very experienced and can really take control.
Slime for 3ic! Except that I don’t think I’ll win…I will vote swimmerboy…
Wait, no I support Slider
WAIT NO I am in the UK….. SO NO 3IC FOR ME, I VOTE SLIDER!
Thanks!
I, THE FLUFFY SHEEP,
Supports snaily5 for 3ic, due to her loyalty in ACP, and activeness.
She is kind to all troops, and follows all rules of ACP. She has done a great job being a moderator, and has attended many events. She has also patrolled servers regulary, which is not done by many troops of ACP. Thus i feel that snaily5 has been a great benefit to the army, and deserves the spot of 3ic.
Snaily isn’t high enough to be 3ic, you baffoon.
Hey be nice now.
It’s common sense?
Or is it? There’s no rules against putting someone who’s a lower rank into 3ic.
Also, Snaily regularly starts unscheduled events, runs a blog on the ACP and is very well liked. I see no issue with having Snaily as 3ic.
Splashy for 3ic!
omg Superaalden, thanks so much for your kind words. Although a tremendous honor that would be, I’m not ready for 3IC and I see GREAT people who are primed and ready to serve. Your words and vote of confidence mean so much to me though. It inspires me to do great things in a positive manner. Thanks Superaalden! (hug)
awwww Tom! (hug) Thanks friend for recognizing my efforts in this army. I appreciate your kind words too.
I also think that slider deserves the position cuz he said he will be disappointed if i didnt vote him D: and i cant vote Mr Waffle, as he claimed that if he was 3ic, there will be no fun D=
arent slider evil? D: and uh yea, he threatened me that if i didnt vote him he would be disappointed…:D CLOSE ENOGUH TO A THREAT O:
but i sitll vote snaily 😛
*Is disappointed*
Baa!
Hello ACP! I am joining the army again!
Awesome!
Welcome back!
I have no idea who you are, but congrats!
Ek,Please PC me ASAP.This is important.
USA = Slider
UK = Splashy
<3 Thanks bro.
I like it,
Nice ideas. The clovers system was working and I’m still gonna use it!

Medals won’t be counted anymore or given out.
i sugguest tes7 for the spot he promises to get much more active and be on more. i ahve seen tes7 he is full of experence and more leadership qualitys he is also american. i saw we make tes7 3ic of the army of cp 😀
Thank you! 😀
I’d go Swimmer for 3ic, he’s proven he has the leadership skills to take us to victory and he’s a good guy to be around
*Facewall*
yeah tes should be the next usa 3ic, although splashy would make a great uk 3ic kthxbai
p.s. the cake is a lie
Thanks Simply
You people realize I’m the oldest and most experienced of all the Division Generals right? I live in the US too, and we need US 3ics.
Older isn’t always better, just sayin *wary*
Will you support me in getting back into the ACP leadership? I’m experienced, creative, and have quite the leadership skills. If you’ll do me the honor of supporting me I promise you won’t be disappointed! If you haven’t already, reply to this new comment if you’d support me.
If you do happen to support me, thanks for all your help! You’ll be quite happy with what I’ll be doing while I’m in the ACP leadership, that is if I happen to get in.
~Slider568 Former ACP 2ic
I’m the oldest and most experienced of the candidates, I know how being a 3ic works and I’m ready to get right to work.
Slider, there is no doubt to your amazing ability and experience to lead and to be 3IC. My concerns is your attitude in ACP chat and blatantly publicly towards ACP since June 2012. The things you have said daily are horrible for and towards this army. You’ve hurt a lot of people and unfortunately lost a lot of respect. I used to respect you sooo much until you raved endlessly, putting others down, putting the army down, etc. I wish we experienced the old Slider those 3 months because if we did and you maintained a positive attitude, I’d vote for you. I cannot support you though. We need the WHOLE package. We need someone who is loyal to ACP through thick and thin, displays personality, is personable with the troops and respectful towards others, and of course has experience and displays tremendous leadership qualities. I’m so sorry friend, but I cannot support you at this time.
My vote goes to Obama or Tes. Either of them would be tremendous 3ICs.
Someone who is not part of ACP, cannot be loyal can they not? When you’re retired you don’t have responsibilities.
Ladies, gentlemen, and Ek I officially resign from candidacy (If I even had it to begin with). After a bit of thinking I’ve decided I’m just an old bitter retiree, I don’t have any right to get in the way of the DGs and their hopes and dreams
Slider, I hope I have not hurt you in any way. Perhaps if you work on rebuilding your image and reputation and prove to ACP over time that you are the whole package once again, as you were just before you became briefly leader, you could give it another shot. I’d personally really like to see you the way you were before all the bitterness set in and damage was done. I wish so much you would have talked to me about it all in PC, perhaps I could have helped you through it and things would be different. If you wish to discuss any of this, I’m always there for ya. You’re doing the responsible thing, which is honorable.
