Addressed to the D.R.A.C.P and army community,
Today on July 24th, 2021, I am announcing the Army of Club Penguin’s official withdrawal from the Legends Cup XI tournament on behalf of the leadership and higher command.
This decision was reached unanimously within the higher command over the past few days, with our intentions before that always having been to take part.
However, our current team have been active within the community for some time now, and have therefore seen and participated in a lot of tournaments. With the seedings for each tournament being very similar each time, albeit perhaps due to a stagnant “top four”, we find it difficult to be excited for this. Having said that, we do hope to continue seeing and participating in more innovative tournament formats, such as the CP Army HQ’s Project: Conquest.
It is more important than ever before that we are innovating this community and game, as the alternative will see people losing interest with repetitive and stale formats. At this junction, the higher command are more excited in taking part in other events over the coming weeks and months that we believe will be exciting for our community.
We apologise if this announcement comes as a disappointment to any of our members or armies in the community. We would like to congratulate our close allies, the People’s Imperial Confederation, for advancing into the second round of the tournament and wish them the very best. It is our hope that more new faces will have a chance to participate in more rounds moving forward.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to the CP Army Network and CP Army HQ for allowing this tournament to be independent of organisations and instead run by the army leaders. In the current divided community, this is definitely the most fair way to run the Legends Cup XI – a tournament that has a strong history and should be enjoyed fairly by all those wishing to take part. In particular, thank you to Iceyfeet1234, F6 Vedant and Superhero123 for their work in organising and managing the tournament. We hope those participating enjoy the experience.
Signed,
The ACP Higher Command
