Club Penguin Times issue #401

Here's issue #401 of the Club Penguin Times. :)


LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
Teams compete in the first ever Club Penguin Scare Games.

By the Greek Council - The first ever Scare Games in Club Penguin have commenced and monsters are choosing their team! We headed over to the center of the action - the amphitheater, off the Campus Quad!

Scarers are lining up to earn scare points and compete for first place. We interrupted a squad of large-horned monsters doing scare lunges, thumping-jacks, and roar-ups. "I'm so excited, I'm scaring myself!" One JOX exclaimed. "But can't talk right now. 5 more reps."

A bookish scareonomics student, watching the action explained the science behind the scare. "They're getting ready for the Scare Challenge. They need super light feet for the sneak, aerodynamic silence, and massive volume for the finish." Great to see so many monsters out for the games! It all seems to be running spectacularly smoothly.

The Scare Games end July 9, so give it your all, and keep your eye - or eyes - on the trophy!


NEWSFLASH

Unexpected snowball fights are on the rise in Club Penguin. No cause for alarm.
-Gary the Gadget Guy.


TEAM TRY-OTUS!
Four teams. Four scare styles. Which is yours?

Having trouble choosing a fraternity or sorority? Head over to the Fraternity Row, just off the forts. You'll find four fur-raising houses to choose from. To make the most of your scream, pick the house that best suits you!

If you've got a big heart, but need a bit of help working on that scare - rush OK. There's a place for everyone at this fraternity! Think you've got mad scare skills? Or like to hang with the best? Then ROR wants you! JOX are on the look out for the loudest and craziest scarers! And if you do whatever it takes to win, you'll definitely make the cut!

If you hide your scare behind a charming smile AND got the scariness to back it up, then pledge PNK. These houses need your best scares. So what are you waiting for? Let's get scaring monsters!

A Few Tweets from Spike Hike



So, as you know Spike Hike has a twitter account. He posted a few great, exciting posts recently and I'd like to share them with you...
 

I think Club Penguin is remaking the Club Penguin Games or Sports party...


Yay , I was worried when the Medieval Party wasn't released in May...

A weekly show, this is epic and I hope it brings back old graphic memories. I remember when I suggested Club Penguin make a show 2 years ago...

What do you think about these posts, let us know in your comments. Anyway have a waddle-ific day!!!

Club Penguin Has gone BONGOS! CP Star Wars Take Over!

Well, Club Advertisement has grown even more. Club Penguin has now decided to do a Star Wars Take Over will be the July Party of 2013. The Music Jam, The Adventure Party, and more fun parties are now at the edge of the cliff and are waiting to be pushed. Here is the post that has all the proof...

Hello Penguins!
 
We're incredibly excited to share some HUGE news with all of you. In fact, this might be the biggest party announcement EVER. Brace yourself…
 
Over the years, we've received thousands of comments, emails and phone calls, all asking for one thing… You asked and we listened! Check out this EPIC special video announcement…
 

That's right! The all-new Star Wars Takeover is coming to Club Penguin in July!!

-Club Penguin Team

Well, this can be fun but Disney is ruining CP with new graphics, Advertising and such more. My vision is that Club Penguin will start advertising all the time and there wont be much new parties, maybe no mascots, and maybe no fun. What do you think about this...

Club Penguin Times issue #400

Here's the latest issue of the Club Penguin Times. :)


FOUR TEAMS TO COMPETE
Gather your team for the Scare Games!

By Aunt Arctic - Are you scary? Do you have a fierce attitude? Are you an all star? Do you like cake? Three fraternities and one sorority are on the look out for the scariest scarers!

These games are not for the faint of heart. Only serious scarers will compete for the win! There is going to be some stern competition soon, so rival teams will be recruiting the best of the best. So gather your friends to practice your brand of scare! I caught up with a group of students in the Quad who were studying their scare techniques.

"We've been practicing our zombie snarls and gusher howls for weeks!" one told me. "This campus event is gonna be HUGE, so just when you think you've got a big enough scare... make it BIGGER! It can never be loud enough, fierce enough, or epic enough!"

Get your scares ready, the games begin - June 27!

NEWSFLASH

Puffles are finding treasure! Take your pet for a walk and dig up some coins. Wow mates! Have I ever got questions for Captain Rockhopper!?! -PH


From reporting on the discovery of puffles to getting the inside scoop on Card-Jitsu Snow, the Club Penguin Times is the island's source of breaking news!

We've shared Gary's cutting-edge scientific discoveries (some that exploded!). Answered your ninjas questions in Ask Sensei. Followed Cadence's glittering career.

And we've learned everything we need to know about stinky cheese from Rockhopper!

All of this and more - thanks to devoted readers like you! I wonder how many words you've read in 400 issues?

Dot The Disguise Gal: Growing Up | Part 1

Introduction
Dot the Disguise Gal is now a huge helper in the EPF, as we know now. But there was a storyline. She isn't just a random penguin who was hired to the EPF. There had to be a reason.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dot's parents were criminals. In fact, they were the most wanted in the island of Club Penguin. Dot actually wasn't called Dot at first. Her parents named her Crime. Shortly after her parents arrived back from the hospital with her, somehow a fire had started in the lair! Crime didn't want to be evil, as she noticed her parents were. So she ran away, and they never found her.
Crime named herself Dot, because she loved polka-dots. But her official name was still Crime. She didn't know what to do after she ran away.

SCARE GAMES UPDATE!
Get growling! Scare practice is in full swing!

By Aunt Arctic - This just in-school spirit is taking over the island as students prep for the Scare Games! Excited students all over the island are cheering as they form into teams.

One excited student in a tweed jacket and pompoms at the Stadium shouted, "Can I get an S-C-A-R-E? Scare Games, yaaayyyy! Goooooo Team...!" Everyone on the island is roaring, rumbling, and howling to get ready for this growling good time. While campus construction is in full swing, scare-raising classes are happening in igloos everywhere.

I visited one igloo where the professor was leading a class on frightening faces! And another where students practiced their scare skills head to head! There's already some fierce competition. So get working on that growl. And create your own scare school with fur-raising items from the latest Furniture Catalog.

IN FOCUS TOUR OF THE FOREST AND COVE
Explore the great outdoors!

By a Aunt Arctic - Recently I decided to meet up with a Tour Guide to find out his favorite spots on the island. I was told to meet my guide in the Plaza, and to bring my sneakers. "Today's workout - uh, I mean, tour - is not for quitters! I'll set a steady pace, so keep up!" He said while running on the spot.

When we made it to the Forest my guide stopped to do a few stretches against a tree. "The Forest is a great place for exercising. You could bring your puffle here for a walk, work off some energy by having a snowball fight, or start a game of hide-and-go-week with a werewolf and a yeti!"

"OK, since we've run this far, let's keep going." puffed our guide and he sprinted off towards the Cove. "The Cove is a great place for swimmers. I'm training for my triathlon, and need to practice hard." After a few laps in the water, we roasted squid-kabobs by the campfire. It was a perfect end to a tiring tour!

Can this be... Rockhopper Island?

Detective Gadget is here, you might have read when Badambee sailed with Rockhopper in secret, read Stowaway, heard or watched Penguin created movies about it. You might say ''Yeah Right'' when you hear about it, but there is now a lot of clues that Rockhopper can return in 2013 while letting us go to his island. Here is some clues...

ELEMENTS BALANCED
A ninja must always be prepared.

By a Ninja - Fire, Water and Snow are back in balance! Brave ninjas are journeying through the stormy summit above the Dojo to master Snow. Many minions have been defeated, but the towering threat of Tusk still remains! "Students, you must continue your training," Sensei explained. "Time spent training today, will prepare you for what tomorrow brings." "We must always be ready. For there are always new challenges to face."

Citizens on the island are relieved they were able to weather the storm. Ninjas are encouraged to push forward on their elemental path at the Dojo.
