A thought.

First of all I’d like to wish everyone a happy new year.

I’ve recieved reports from persons not to be named, about a rebellion.

These reports inform me :
That people from the Revolt, the rebellion, by several names:

Are attempting to impeach the top leadership of ACP, including myself.

One of several pictures:

I’m very dissappointed in these developments. I thought that the New Year means to “move on”, and start anew..

Anyways, congrats to those who were promoted, and I’m sorry aber for forgetting you. I didn’t see you then.

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, Saint and Aber are going to take over da world, and I’m their offical “supplier and sponsor” 😛

The Deal

Boomer’s Edit: This is my last edit (hopefully), but Ennbay would like to say that he is retiring from Xat, so wish him well.  He would also like to wish everyone a Happy New Year.  Here is the link to his band’s website:

http://finalambition.wordpress.com/

Aber: Well I wanted to thank you guys for understanding. I just felt like I haven’t done much. But I wanted to thank everyone who supported me :D. Happy New Years Everyone!

Shab: This is fair. I don’t agree with some things but most is true. Head, if I kicked u for swearing you would have freaked out and said that I was bullying you. And I do agree that Aber does need something to do. I’m sry that I have been kinda ignoring that fact that your 3rd in command.

Boomer’s Edit: I have removed the other post because I believe that situation to be over.  If the situation deteriorates, we will address it after the New Year.  I would like to try to move on.  The post is saved but not published and I would prefer it remain that way for now.  Thanks.

Jedi’s Edit: I’m really sorry aber. I wasn’t there, for the first half so I didn’t see you 😦 . I agree with the changes Boomer has proposed. Also, I think that I could also find some other stuff for aber to do, as well.

Boomer’s Edit: ACP almost lost Aber today because she has been feeling as though she is not important to this army.  She was frustrated by being left out of Ankita’s post about the Tournament battle when she really did more than Shab and Ankita put together.  She is 3rd in Command, but really has no say in the army or the government.  So here it is:

New Year’s Resolution #1

We need to respect Aber as an equal to the other leaders in ACP.  Therefore, she will be an Editor on the site, an Owner on chat, and will have more authority than she was allotted before.  Together we have decided that something that she could do, as well as something that should be done, is get the Governors more involved.  It will be Aber’s job to collect reports from Governors about activity in their servers.  This means that Governors will need to patrol their servers at least once a day if possible, and report any army activity to her.  This will help us keep track of armies using land grants, as well as being able to alert us of enemy invasions much quicker.  Because of this new task, Aber will have the title of Vice President in addition to 3rd in Command.  Pay attention to this Shab and Ankita, because this is for you as well 😉 .  She deserves more respect than she has had from all of us recently.

It seems as though some soldiers are not going to give me a chance to talk through this, so I am just going to make a deal straight-out.  First, I will reset the chat, because some people are not mature enough to celebrate the New Year without being jealous of new mods and owners (it’s one day people).  The heart of the problem seems to be Shab, who unfortunately has become a scapegoat for everything (I was the one who said we could have a couple retiring veterans be owners for a day, not Shab).  The fact that no one listened to him shows an attitude that I cannot respect.  It is an attitude that must be changed.  Head, for example, thinks that everything Shab does is unjust (banning him, etc.).  Then Head goes out and freaks out at Oagal and others for absolutely nothing, banning them forever, etc.  And of course Head does nothing wrong…it is all Shab’s fault.  I will say this, Shab needs to improve his behavior.  But what does it say about you when you go out and do the same thing?  “Shab started a rebellion and took us out of Mammoth.”  Ok, yes he did that well over a month ago.  What’s your response?  Let’s start a rebellion.  “Shab bans everyone unfairly.”  Then people like Head, when given the chance, do the same exact thing.  So are we not all at fault?  Your behavior has been no better than Shab’s.  This may have ended well for everyone if those of you rebels had let me handle it.  Instead, we nearly had a crisis.  Seeing as you will not give me the chance to talk to Shab before you break my neck for not firing him, I will address this the best way I can.

The Solution:

  • The chat will be reset
  • Shab will be a mod until he proves that he can handle himself better
  • The rebellion will cease and those responsible will not be punished

No one seems to be able to come up with an argument on what Shab has done wrong as a leader (other than maybe he has not done much – which is my fault).  Those who complain cite what he does on chat, so I feel that being a mod is a fitting punishment.  He will not be able to ban Head or most of the others who have complained because they will also be mods.  If you choose not to accept this, the consequences will be severe.  In the early days of the United States, there was no greater crime than what has been commited here.  Treason, or the act of attempting to overthrow one’s government, was punishable by death.  However, should you accept this agreement, I will not punish those involved.  I hope you are rational about the situation, or we are no better than what we have accused Shab of.

Boomer

Give ’em a break . . .

Boomer Edit: I will be talking to Shab about how he behaves on chat, I said I would do that already today.  You guys who started this rebellion, be warned, if this continues, I can almost guarantee you will be kicked out of this army.  If you have a problem with me or another leader, address me like Head did (at first), and I will take care of it.  As soon as you take things into your own hands, you risk severe punishment.  Based on what Oagal said, it sounds like Head either reposted the post he had made, or more likely had someone else do it for him since I moved him to Contributor for trying to post it against my wishes the first time.  After disobeying my direct orders a second time, Head has been removed from the site.  If have also made Aber, Rap, and Sheila Authors temporarily until this situation cools off.  The chat is being reset after New Year’s due to an increase in mods.  Until then, we may celebrate a bit by making some other people mods, but if it gets out of hand again, the chat will be reset early.

Guys, calm down. I’m fine with you disagreeing with Shab, but what’s more likely to make him change: Confront him face to face, and talk things through? Or making a a completely out-of-place post putting down one of the ACP’s co-leaders?

I think you can see where I’m coming from.

Shab: Try to be more fair on the chat. If people are doing something wrong, you should tell them what they did wrong, warn them not to do it again, and if they keep it up, then take action.

Head: One more rebellious post like that and you’re off the site for good.

So-called-“Rebellion”: If you make any uncalled-for, out-of-place rebellions like this, I can guarantee you that your CP lives will be a lot less enjoyable. Talk first, make assumptions later . . . better yet, never make assumptions. Period. Those of you who continue to actively rebel in this manner will force Boomer, Shab, Jedi and I to intervene.

P.S. I’ve deleted the post. We don’t need any more near-meaningless disturbances anymore.

Promo Day/Tournament in Review/Happy New Year’s Eve!

Jedi’s Edit: I’d like to Congratulate all those who got a promotion. You’ve done well, and your work was rewarded.For those who didn’t, don’t get dissappointed.

We still need to decide on what to do about the mod situation because we already have too many and would have just added quite a bit more with this promo day, so we will not be making any new mods until we decide how to better control the situation.

If you did not get a promo and you think you deserved one, you can file a complaint here:

https://acparmyofclubpenguin.wordpress.com/rank-complaints/

I know for a fact I did not get everyone (that would be impossible), so please help me out and explain why you deserved one.  Thanks.

Note: This does not include people who have joined in the last few days.  If you were active without being ranked, you will be added to the ranks as if you were promoted.

————————————————————————————————-

On to the Tournament battle, which I think went pretty well.  There’s a lot we did well, but a lot we need to tighten up.  The first thing was the Divide and Conquer strategy, which Oagal and I disagreed on.  My reasoning was that ACP always has soldiers on Club Penguin that are not on chat, so I figured that sending only those soldiers on chat from Sherbet to Fjord would still give me enough soldiers on Sherbet to defeat ST.  After UMA called in for backup against IW and the Nachos on Fjord, I figured it was a risk worth taking since we were excessively larger than ST on Sherbet (by 3 or 4 times), and we had CPAF as a fallback.  The transition went fairly well once everyone understood where they were going and eventually got into Fjord.  Afterward, ACP and UMA made significant gains on Fjord, while the ACP soldiers on Sherbet held off an increasing large ST faction for over an hour.  To my knowledge, this is one of the first instances of a major army successfully defending two servers at once, so thanks to everyone who made that work out.  I thought it was pretty cool while being quite chaotic for me at the same time 😛 .

There are still some things we need to work on, however.  The first is regrouping.  We struggle with regrouping after charges, partly due to our size, but we can still improve quite a bit.  The second is spreading out.  We are a very large army, and we need to use our size to our advantages.  When we do regroup, we bunch up and stand on top of each other, making us look smaller.  The second thing we need to improve is listening for commands.  We do a lot of yelling and random charging, but we need to hold back and stay quiet for the most part so enemies can see our size and you can see my commands without it being covered up by a chat bubble.  Keep an eye on me, especially if you are not on chat, so you know when to charge.  When we do a full charge, that is when you should scream at the top of your lungs 😛 .  I was not sure if I would have to address this, but please do not crowd around me.  Someone remarked it was like Rockhopper (which I found amusing), but there is no need to “protect” me from anything.  Snowballs are not going to kill me, nor you, so please give everyone their space.  Also, other people need to be able to see my commands, and that is made difficult when everyone crowds around me.

————————————————————————————————-

Lastly, Happy New Year’s Eve!! 😀

I do not know if I will be around tonight to come on chat or anything, but if I can maybe we can organize a party on CP.  Maybe Shab or Sheila or someone can try to set one up regardless of if I can make it or not.  We should celebrate our achievements of the past year tonight.  Then we can make New Year’s Resolutions for next year 😀 .

Boomer

P.S.~Congrats everybody!  We just thrashed the previous record for hits in a month by well over 3,000 and we still have almost all of today to increase it 😛 .  And December was supposed to be a slow month 😐 (25,000 more hits than last December lol 😛 )

Well Done ACP!

CHAT: www.xat.com/theacp

Aber: I wanted to say great job to all of acp for listening and following orders! The divide and conquer went great, and all of us are proud of you guys! Great Job again, ACP!

I was there for half of the battle. I thought I wasn’t going 2 be, but I had difficult with breathing at Martial Arts, and my mom got concerned, so I came home.

Either way, we did rather well. Boomer, Shab and myself lead. However, at around 7:55 I ordered a direct withdrawl from both servers.

I’m going to state my opinon and a quote from the renowned Shadow2446.

My opinion: WE PWNED!

Shadow’s Opinion: “ACP Kicked a**”

Basically, I think that Team UMA, (UMA,ACP,,CPAF,WW, CPW,RR) owned..

PROLOGUE

          I, Oagalthorp, joined Club Penguin in the later part of March, 2006. During my first day, I soon learned to utilize the snowball capabilities, and, little to my knowledge, the fate of Club Penguin was then decided.

          My “birth server” was Wite Out, which was then in the American server page. During my first few months, I joined and fought with many of the nomadic Clans that wandered the servers in the ancient times of CP. Most of the Clans I would start or join were Color Clans, and I would soon find myself at the top of the food chain. My primary “mission” for these militias would be to clear the snow forts of enemy Color Clans, and stop any burglaries at the Pizza Shop. But controlling these groups was difficult, and no control was permanent.

          Soon, I moved to the server Snow Fort. From there, I found a Mob Clan, lead by a penguin names Max1234. I went undercover, and within a few days a Clan of mine ambushed them in the HQ. I came up with s revolutionary idea. I’d create an alliance with this group, and we’d be known the ASF, or the Alliance of Snow Fort. Though there was much preaching throughout the streets on Snow Fort — my troops and I would tell everyone that the ASF controlled that server — no definitive control was put forth.

          A few weeks later, I was surfing the web, and came upon the discovery of Ninjas. I continued my search for the secrets of these Ninjas, and came upon a large community within Miniclip: The Club Penguin MiniclipForums. During this time period, most new CP users came from Miniclip, and the Miniclip Forums were the center of Club Penguin culture. It was the Forumer Vital Viper, in fact, who founded Mammoth as the “Forum Sever.” Soon, there was an election to decide the president of CP, held on the Forums, between Vital Viper and Big Balla. A group of my friends and I acted as security for the elections, which were held in Lambofun’s house. Though I voted for Balla, Vital won.

          It wasn’t until over a year later when it was found that a Moderator, RFS, screwed up the polls, and Vital Viper was in fact the winner. But at the time, I talked to Balla, and asked if the army I was planning to make could be the official defenders of CP, and the capitol (Mammoth) in particular. He agreed.

          Soon afterward, on September 29, 2006, I created the Army of Club Penguin right there on the Forums. The ACP was a revolutionary concept. There would be an army with one leader, one set of ranks, a set uniform (not just a color), a website as the base of operations,  and a single server to meet on. The ACP was the first army of it’s kind, and would change the face of Club Penguin for years to come.

          Our first uniform was the Mining/Construction helmet (combat helmet), Green Letter-jacket (camo), Boots (combat boots), Messenger Bag (supplies and pistol holster), Electric Guitar — at the time, red was the only guitar color — (snowball rifle), black color, and any eye-wear.

          Of course, it would be a long time before this army would become a CP-wide phenomenon. We had to be able to make it through our first two weeks . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

The ERA of the FORUMS

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

I) WWII

          The Army thread grew faster than any of the other groups in the “Clubs and Teams” sub-forum. Within a week we had over 20 soldiers, which was more than most of the much-older and experienced clubs had. But soon, a penguin my the name of Explorer7777 created an organized center for the Romans, a series of Clan that had recently invaded much of Club Penguin. Within a few days, he had assembled an army that outnumbered us 4:3. The power got to his head, and he threatened the ACP, saying he’s “grind us into dust” if we did not surrender. But the Army was not created to give up. We accepted their declaration of war, and decided to hold the battle at the Vietnam battlefield-styled house of the ACP number two, Koolaidman7. By the time of the battle, the ACP has 35 soldier, while the Roman Army had nearly 50.

          On Friday the 13, the Romans marched onto our battlefield. This was the first formal battle any of us had ever fought in, and marked the beginning of WWII. We waited on the right side of the battlefield while the massive Roman army advanced. At 3:00pm PST (though PST was not established yet), I fired the first shot, and all Hell broke loose. We had fought for half an hour, and neither side was starting to give. We were using cover, because if we were hit by a snowball, we’d need to head over to the enemy’s “jail.”

          Soon, Koolaidman7 was captured. I swerved and dodged over to their POW camp, brought him back, and we continued fighting. There was severe lag, but we kept up the fire, and gave them no slack. After three gruelling hours, we had won the battle, and defeated the Roman Army. A few troops on both sides started exiting, but the bulk of ear armies was relentless.

          Finally, half an hour later, enough Romans had retreated for us to declare victory. A few of the enemies failed to accept defeat, but most of them did. The first and last jajor battle of WWII was through. We had defeated the Roman Army, which vastly out-manned us, and upon their destruction most of their soldiers joined the ranks of the ACP. Though WWII raged on, it was isolated to Dojos throughout CP, especially on Mammoth. The Army didn’t give up, and allied with the Vikings and Nachos, who helped us in our fight against the Roman Clans that continued to stream into the peaceful servers of CP.

          WWII didn’t end until the December of 2006, but by then the roots of WWIII had already been started. But throughout this time, the ACP made several advances that would seal it’s fate as the army of armies for Ages to come . . .

II) AGE of CULTURE

          After our the first and last major, organized battle of WWII, the ACP grew at an exponential rate. During this time, not only did the number of soldiers increase, but our fame held an even farther reach. During November, our thread become the largest thread in the whole of the Forums, and become more viewed than the “Rules” thread itself. But that will be discussed later.

          During this stage of the ACP’s existence, the “culture” within the Army was at an all-time high. Most of the soldiers within the Army were some of the best of all-time, and are currently the standard to which all future generations of soldiers will be compared. These troops included Oagalthorp, Koolaidman7, David Shawn, Gorond, Nrop, Goozgooz, and Lt Giovvani. We would frequently defend the Mammoth Dojo, the epicenter of Roman attacks throughout CP, as they tended to invade populated areas and try to take the high ground.

          The ACP was not nearly as big as it is now, and we would often find ourselves outnumbered by the Romans. But we had an advantage over them. We would easily set  up a counter-attack at any time, whereas it took hours to form one of their raiding parties. Now, most robbery been halted, and the PSA in Mammoth was under our jurisdiction, so to speak. We also allied with the few Nachos on Mammoth, and many of the Viking Clans, along with some of the remaining Color Clans, especially Green and Black.

          By the end of the Age of Culture, the Roman raiding parties’ activity had been cut in half, we had united many smaller Clans who in turned joined us, our thread had become the largest on the Forums (which still remained the center of CP culture), we held Mammoth justly; defending if perfectly, our soldiers were loyal and perhaps the best of all time, and the world basically revolved around this Army. But this wouldn’t last . . .

 

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

III) The FIRST DEPRESSION

           The ACP was on top of the world. But that would all change after a weekend-long absence of mine. For the first time, I would not be able to lead the ACP for a weekend. I left some of the Generals – David Shawn, Gorond, and Nrop — in charge while I was gone.

          But the Moderators of the Forums had had enough. Nrop started a big game of “Halo stories,” where soldiers could tell fictitious tails about space combat. This led to many new comments (known as posts) under the ACP thread. The Mods took advantage of this, and many accused them of  “spamming.” Meanwhile, Nrop had gotten carried away, and created his own army: the CPUNSC. This new group recruited mainly ACP soldiers, including Us Soilder, who was thought to be one of the most loyal troops we had.

          By the time of my return, the Mods were trying to close the ACP thread, my most loyal General had betrayed me, many noobs had been brought into the Army, and by the looks of it, all hell had broken lose.

          I quickly took action. I first pointed out that most of the “spam” was simply soldiers chatting, and a few stories. The only thing close to spamming was the debates I had with a few army-oriented people, such as Akabob, and even that was far from “Stupid, Pointless, Annoying Messeging.” Though many Mods simply ignored me, due to their envy of the number of posts and hits my thread held. But I put up enough of an argument to keep the ACP from destruction. Meanwhile, since I put most of my energy into defending the ACP thread, I was not able to prevent the complete separation of the ACP and UCPUNSC, and a bitter rivalry was soon formed. The whole word of this Army appeared to be crashing down.

          I then decided to “out-source” the ACP. I joined a smaller forum, along with the Miniclip Forums, and set up an ACP thread there. This was the forum set up by Lt Giovvani, who was already a loyal ACP soldier. On his forums, a penguin by the name of Sf1998 saw the ACP thread. He thought it was pretty cool, so he decided to make the ACP a brother army: The Club Penguin Marines. After a small plagiarism argument,w e became close allies. The CPM soon grew as big as the ACP, but now within the Forums, but rather on a WordPress site. There, the CPM allied with the Nachos, as opposed to the Nacho Clans the ACP had allies with. The Nachos second-in-command, Zippy500, was already an ACP fan on the Forums. For this set of coincidences, the ACP and official Nachos had made an alliance through the CPM.

          Though our power on CP was growing, we still had a spamming problem on the Forums. And a whole heck of a lot was about to happen . . .

IV) PRUGING from the FORUMS

          Soon, chaos broke out on the Forums. Noobs were running amok, and several small wars amonst the armies in the Clubs and Teams subforum. Because of the spike in posts under the army threads — which was caused by the wars — the ACP thread was pinned as the scapegoat for the madness. Several Moderators spent their entire time on the Forums trying to shut down the ACP thread, while some simply tried banning the noobs, spammers, and flamers. Contrary to popular belief, the ACP thread contained next to no spam. Sure, we had fighting, but it was more like debating. Even so, the ACP thread had twice as many views as any thread on the Forums, including the “Rules” thread. We also had three times as many posts under the ACP than any other thread.

          After an argument with RPF, the head Mod on the CP section of the Forums, the unthinkable occurred. The ACP thread was closed.

          I put in a quick relief effort. Frantically, I tried to find some place to host the Army. I looked at the CPM, which was crumbling under the pressures of war, and decided to do what they did. On February 19, 2007,  I made a website. This website, to be exact. I never suspected that it could ever live up to the thread on the Miniclip Forums though. However, withing a week of the ACP thread being shut down, the chaos was only worsened. The Administrators shut down the CP subforum . . . for good.

          Soon, the Admins gave RFS permission to construct new CP forums, under a separate address so that the regular Forums would not be “polluted.” By this time, the ACP had crushed the CPUNSC and their allies in total war. They had thought that the ACP would be weaken because we lacked a thread, but this website only made us stronger. The battle was in my igloo, on Crunch, and we outnumbered them three to one. The battle lasted just half an hour, and despite Nrop’s — the leader of the CPUNSC — stubbornness, our enemies finally accepted defeat.

          Not longer after our resounding victory, the new Forums were finally completed. I made a new ACP thread, and within two weeks, the ACP thread become the biggest, most active thread on the Forums. Naturally, RPF was pissed.

          But he was the least of our problems. A new army had been spotted, and — though we didn’t know it at the time — they would not be defeated as easily as the rest . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

V) UMA

          Unlike the Roman Army under Explorer7777, the CPUNSC did not completely die out. We re-allied with them, and actively worked towards a stronger alliance. We were rebuilding from the Depression, an Age we did not wish to repeat, and things were going well. The Moderators and RFS had gotten off our backs, and many new armies were eager to become our allies. But, yet again, things were only going to get worse after we peaked.

          One day in the late December of 2006, Nrop and a recon squad of his had spotted a new group in the Mammoth Boiler Room. They wore all black, with red head bandannas, red backpacks, and red skin. This group first appeared to be known as the “Uma,” a name we figured must just be another meaningless Clan title. Over the next few weeks, I ordered many scouting parties to scour Mammoth for these Umas, and their allies, the Gangstas. We’d often confront them in the Snow Forts and Boiler room, and, rather than shrinking like the other Clans, they only grew after each skirmish. Things were truly puzzling.

          I decided to search the web for these so-called Umas. I came upon a website run be a penguin name Pink Mafias, and found that he had created an army called the Underground Mafias Army. I was fine with that, but then I realized two things. First of all, I knew that he was attacking the ACP and vice versa. But secondly, and more importantly, his massive website was used for hacking several aspects of Club Penguin, uncluding rare cloths and coins. This seemed despicable. Attacking the Army was one thing, but deliberately screwing with the content of CP was another. It was even illegal.

          As usual, I did not hesitate to take action. Immediately, I commented on Pink’s site, stating that he must stop advertising hacks, and stop attacking Mammoth, otherwise the ACP would declare war. One of his top soldiers, Michael427, responded with the words “Bring it on.”

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

VI) WWIII

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

WWIII: PART ONE

          The UMA had accepted war. I expected that, after a battle or two, we would be done with this army and move on. I was wrong. In January of 2008, I set up a raiding party to intercept a UMA attack on the Snow Forts. We were greeting by a group twice our size, who attacked us relentlessly. I knew we could not win this battle, so we regrouped at the Plaza. After this defeat, I decided to reconsider the Army’s tactics for this war. At the time, we had no hope of winning a battle in open, face-to-face combat. I decided to adopt a new form of warfare.

          In November of the previous year, the ACP was fighting a large group of Romans. All hope had seemed lost, when all of the sudden I had an idea. Why not break the regularly accepted, unspoken laws of combat? Why should we stay at one side of the field while the superior enemy continues gaining troops? Why not attack them in a full-scale charge? If we charged these Romans, we could through them into a chaotic frenzy, then they’d be too disoriented to fight. The ACP would regroup on the other side of the field, and charge again. We’d repeat this strategy until the Romans were defeat. This tactic worked better than I though; withing only thee charges and regroupings, they had been all but annihilated.

          I decided that we should attack the UMA with “hit-and-run” tactics. We would march throughout many rooms, gaining new recruits. When we saw the UMA, we’d attack for a little bit, and when they gained the upper-hand we’d fall back to another room and continue marching. We would repeat this until we were large enough to defeat them, at which time we’d march up to them, face-to-face, and fight o=in that room until we had won. The UMA may have outnumbered us, but we had a stronger chain of command, and a more centralized leaderwhip. This enabled us to move faster, and route them out. To this day, the ACP is still the “fastest” army in CP.

           Over the next few months, we continued fighting the UMA in a similar fashion. We’d win about three out of five battles, when all logic would dictate that we should win none of them. But we remembered the basic principles of warfare: You can’t win until it looks like you win. The victory of a battle was decided by what the average observer would see. This means that to win, we’d need to be able to outnumber the UMA. Though difficult and time-consuming, our new “Rapid Warfare” payed off. We managed to hold our own. That is, until April 14, 2007.

          Though the ACP had many small allied on the Forums, the UMA was undermining the ACP’s stronghold there. They allied with the CPUNSC, the second largest army there, and the Nachos. The Army was losing support, and the UMA was growing. On April 14, once the ACP had bottomed-out for this war, Pink Mafias decided to ambush the ACP at one of our meetings. Though I tried to inform every ACP soldier of this, it appeared to be all in vain.

          By the time the battle started, it took me nearly ten minuted to even get in the Dojo. It was lagging like crazy, and the room was absolutely full. By the time I got in, I saw nothing but black and red. The UMA had come early, and out-numbered us six to one. It took several minutes of chaos for me to rally a group of about 12 ACP soldiers to stage a counter-offensive, but it was not working. Most of the ACP soldier couldn’t even get in the room, and those that managed to get in could not see any of my commands due to the constant chant of “UMA UMA UMA.” Within twenty minutes of the most brutal massacre the ACP had ever been on the wrong side of, I decided that it was not worth it. No one was leaving the room, and my soldiers couldn’t get in. Even if they could, this battle was far from reversible. I had to surrender.

          I invited Pink Mafias to my igloo, where I formally surrendered; the first major defeat the ACP had ever had. Only a week beforehand, I had asked for an alliance. He had said no, but I figured I should ask again. Again, he said no. But he did agree to a small cease-fire agreement, which lessened the sting of defeat for most of the ACP soldiers.

Battle of Mammoth Video

          By that time I had learned many things from that battle. And next time, I would be prepared . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

WWIII: PART TWO

          I decided to give up Mammoth. For the first time in the history of the ACP, our capitol — our home sever — our birth place — had been given up. The UMA was everywhere in Mammoth, all the time. So I solemnly moved the Army to one of our smaller, satellite server: Breeze. There, like the Allies during WWII in Britain, I would plan the ACP’s redemption.

          First of all, I changed the ACP uniform. To the dismay of several ACP veterans, I adopted the Roman helmet to be standardized. This made many angry, for the Romans had been our biggest enemy since our creation. But there was logic to it. Firstof all, the Roman helmet would make us appear larger, which would contribute to our recruiting ability and give us a more intimidating appearance. But more importantly, it would get many soon-to-be Roman troops to join us instead. Now we would be able to command larger forces in CP, and gain many new recruits.

          From Breeze, we would use the “marching” aspect of Rapid War to gain many new recruits. Then I would send all of my soldiers into Mammoth as a raiding party. Now, we would have the ability to form large, formidable forces without the UMA defeating us before we were ready to fight. Once Mammoth would be cleared of the UMA soldiers at that time, we’d regroup back to our new base, the Breeze Cave.

          After two weeks of surprising success, Pink became angry. How could such a seemingly insignificant group cause so much damage to our reign in Mammoth? So he planned another ambush. He had won the Battle of Mammoth, and he looked forward to winning the Battle of Breeze . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

WWIII: PART THREE

           By this time, some ACP saboteurs had e-mailed the CP staff about the UMA and their hacking. Pink Mafias was then banned for ever, for excessive hacking,  and was forced to use the secondary file, Uma Pm. This weakened UMA morale, and nearly destroyed their leadership and chain of command. But they were still able to fight, and fight they did.

          The UMA decided to attack the ACP at one of their meetings on Breeze, to eliminate any threat before the Army could get onto Mammoth. On May 26, 2007, the UMA would yet again ambush the ACP and hopefully defeat us for good this time. But I could not allow that to happen. I chose the Cave as the ACP base so that, in case of another ambush, we’d have a more strategic position, rather than be crammed in the Dojo. Now we could get all of the ACP troops fighting, rather than just a handful that could get in the room. I made many tactical improvements to this Army, which include the new uniform, new base, and new allies.

          When I first heard of the oncoming attack, I immediately got to work. I made a post, reminding all of the soldiers of the impending battle. Then, I searched in the Web in the hopes of finding allies — any allies — that could help us during the war.

          I found many who were willing to help. First, I found the CPAF. Led by Db Penguin, they were nearly the size of the ACP, and were extremely well-led. Though a few of their soldiers had some disagreements with me, I managed to seal the alliance because I become a good friend of Db. Then, I found a seemingly small, less useful ally; the RPF. I was soon proven wrong about the “small and less useful” notion I had. The RPF had been fighting the UMA almost as long as we had, and they were led by Commando717. They accepted the alliance, and Commando and I, as with Db and I, become good friends. This friendship would solidify the fate of generations to come.

          On May 26, we were all waiting in the cave. The disastrous defeat at Mammoth had left us with a limited morale, but we had enough strength left to at least right. Soon, the RPF and CPAF arrived, and matched ur size. Then the UMA stormed the Boiler Room.

          I sent a scout to the Boiler, and he returned with the message “There’s a lot of them.” We tried holding the door, so that any new UMA’s wouldn’t be noticed by onlookers, but soon enough they flooded the Cave. The UMA sure gave us a run for our money. At one point, they outnumbered the Allies three to two. But I sent a charge of ACP soldier, and we started chanting “ACP ACP” over and over, until the UMA soldiers were covered in chat bubbles. But they just kept coming.

          Now that we had the upper-hand, we stormed the Boiler Room and sent any remaining UMA their retreating into the Cave. We held the Boiler for a short time with the CPAF, but the RPF was in need of help. We moved into the Cave, and the RPF were surrounded by dozens of UMA troops. We gave them as much support as possible, but the UMA still kept fighting. Then Commando and his army took the high ground, up at the life guard tower. The ACP seized this opportunity, now that the enemy was distracted, and took full control of the low grounds, where our battle-cries blotted out the UMA. Half od us stayed to fight, but half charged up and sent chaos into the mod of Pink’s troops.

          Once the CPAF and RPF gained enough troops to match the UMA’s size, I ordered the ACP into the Boiler Room, to block any entrances. Now the UMA was split between the two rooms, and we managed to defeat them. The ACP had finally managed to stand up to the UMA, and pull through a victory. We had won the Battle of Breeze, and the tides of the war had changed their course . . .

The ERA of TRIUMPH

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW! VII) An END to WAR

          The UMA was breaking. Pink Mafias, now under the name Uma Pm, was losing his will to fight. The UMA soldiers had taken a heavy blow on morale, because not only was their leader banned, but also because of the unexpected defeat at the Battle of Breeze, at the hands of the ACP, CPAF, and RPF. But things, as they tend to do, would only get worse . . .

          Pink Mafias was quitting the UMA, and the whole of CP. The UMA soldiers were devastated. First Pink was banned by the saboteurs, and now he was gone for what appeared to be forever. If this weren’t bad enough, Pink was the only User on his website. This means that once he leaves, no one else will be able to make posts on that website.

          The top soldiers — Angel G8r and Mpenguin123 — were given full command of the Underground Mafias Army. As soon as they could have, they constructed a new website dedicated entirely to the UMA and it’s activities. But this site would not gain nearly as much notoriety as Pink’s, and the war effort seemed to have been crushed. But a few loyal soldiers from the first and only surviving sector of the UMA — Angel, Mpenguin, Michael, and Abercrombe29 included — would continue fighting, at all costs. It was this will power alone that kept the UMA going.

          But as the Soviets took their vengeance on the Third Reich in WWII, the ACPwould show no mercy. On June 13, 2007, the Army had reclaimed it’s capitol server — Mammoth — from the weakening grasp of what remained of the UMA. Commando717 and I led an undercover expidition deep within the heart of the UMA , and managed to find all of their plans and meeting places. Now, to solidify our redemption, we would strike. The tides had changed, and now we would ambush the UMA at one of their meetings. On June 25, we would attack the UMA at a gathering of theirs in their new sever: Wool Socks, Canada. We were ready for revenge, and off of Club Penguin knew of the merciless retribution we would have the UMA pay on that fateful day.

          The Army and our allies, the CPAF and RPF, would finish off the UMA, once and for all. We marched into the Forest, and were greeting by a UMA force a fraction of it’s previous size under Pink Mafia’s reign. From their, a Cowboy Clan helped us, while the CPUNSC helped the UMA. The Allies outnumbered their enemies four to one. The ACP used several fierce charges that threw the UMA into panic, while the CPAF attacked from below and the RPF from above. Surrounded, the UMA failed to give up. They regrouped at the Plaza, and by the time the ACParrived they had retreated back into the Forest. After victory was certain, I invited all soldiers of every army into my igloo, which was set us as the opening scene of “Saving Private Ryan.” From there, we would finish this battle-turned-butchery.

          And from there we did. The ACP had defeated the UMA in our last battle of WWIII, and won the war. Despite all odds and reasoning, we had somehow managed to win this war. Was it the espionage? The new uniforms? Pink quitting? The new UMA site? Maybe all of those. But I believe that from the beginning, it was the pure, unbridled determination of the ACP soldiers and allies that won the greatest war Club Penguin has ever seen.

          After the Battle of Wool Socks, I spoke with Mpenguin. We decided to set up an alliance, and that we did. The ACP and UMA would remain good allies. That is, until much later on . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW! VIII) The GOLDEN AGE

          After the Third World War, there was a bit of a lull. There were very few open wars, and most people were content. During this Age, which primarily took place during the summer and fall of 2007, the ACP grew to it’s highest power.

          After the war, the UMA started shrinking, and the CPAF was soon dissolved entirely. But the ACP and RPF, the closest allies of the time, grew to an incredible size. The RPF gained many of the discontented UMA soldiers, while the ACP continued to produce a steady supply of frest recruits. The Nachos also grew, albeit less dramatically. But, as the UMA was the sole Superpower on Club Penguin in it’s Golden Age, the ACP and RPF were the Superpowers of theirs.

          Though the RPF worked mainly on maintaining alliances, the ACPworked on keeping an active army. Throughout this time period, since no huge war brought in many recruits to other existing armies, new armies were formed. These armies included the Golds, Ice Warriors, Silver Surfers, and several Roman Clans. The Golds were led by a rude, immature leader, so their destiny was limited. The Silver Surfers lacked centralized leadership, and the Romans had many dispersed armies. The Ice Warriors, however, were well-led. Iceyfeet1234 led an early successful invasion of Mammoth, but the current inhabitants — ACP, UMA, RPF, Nachos, Golds — defeated them several times at the Dojo, and an alliance was eventually reached. But several small wars broke out, including UMA vs. Golds.

          But a new enemy was on the horizon. A British army called the GPR (Gugu Penguin Romans), which was named after it’s laader, Gugu Penguin, started expanding from UK servers into American territory. Once we found their website, we found them to be extrememly evil. Beyong hacking, evil. Once I tried to make negotiations, they immediately insulted America. They thought we were scum, and not only insulted the brave Americans who fought and gave their lives for the sake of liberty during the Second World War, but also blamed America for the global terror crisis, even thought he USA was hit the hardest.

          This new, previously unheard-of type of evil and hatred locked the fate of the GPR. I quickly formed a Second Alliance to give us payback for what the GPR had said and done, and we would not stop until they were fully broken, their Empire was destroyed, and had apologized for past transgressions. Most armies were infuriated, and joined the cause. These armies included the ACP, UMA, RPF, Ice Warriors, and Golds. the Nachos did not participate, however, because Zippy claimed that there was no good reason for war — when in reality this was the most just war we’d ever fight. Even so, we still planned to march through the GPR like a hot knife through butter.

          The first attack would be on September 29, 2007, on the ACP’s anniversary of creation. We marched into the Mammoth Dojo. Our plan was to clear out Mammoth of any vanguard GPR raiders, and then attack their heart of operations: The Deep Freeze Dojo. It was simply. Clear Mammoth, move on. As we entered the Mammoth Dojo, we met a small raiding party of enemy troops, as expected. After a ten-minute skirmish, they had retreated, and ACP scouts scoured the server for any GPR survivors. When none were found, we charged straight into Deep Freeze, where we were greeted by a GPR force nearly the size of the ACP.

          We immediately opened a barrage of fire. Most Ice Warriors and UMA soldiers stayed in Mammoth in the case of a counter-attack, but the RPF, ACP, and Golds moved onward. Neither the ACP nor the GPR gave an inch, but the Golds started faltering. Half of the Golds had been lost, but the Allies continued to fight. Gugu ordered a charge, but the ACP charged back, and the sides were reversed. From there, the RPF charged them, but the ACP stayed. Now the GPR charged back, only to face the full power of the ACP. Surrounded and outnumbered, the GPR bitterly accepted defeat.

          Their leaders asked for an alliance, but would not apologize for the atrocious things they said. So we attacked the following day, and the battle played out in a similar fashion. The Second Battle of Mammoth and the Battle of Deep Freeze had both bee won. Withing a week, the entire GPR had been decimated, and those who remained created a second, good GPR. This, however, did not last long. Soon, they were wiped from the history of CP. Until this account was written, that is.

           After the GPR War, there was a peace. However, in December of that same year, the peace would be disturbed . . .

PROLOGUE

          I, Oagalthorp, joined Club Penguin in the later part of March, 2006. During my first day, I soon learned to utilize the snowball capabilities, and, little to my knowledge, the fate of Club Penguin was then decided.

          My “birth server” was Wite Out, which was then in the American server page. During my first few months, I joined and fought with many of the nomadic Clans that wandered the servers in the ancient times of CP. Most of the Clans I would start or join were Color Clans, and I would soon find myself at the top of the food chain. My primary “mission” for these militias would be to clear the snow forts of enemy Color Clans, and stop any burglaries at the Pizza Shop. But controlling these groups was difficult, and no control was permanent.

          Soon, I moved to the server Snow Fort. From there, I found a Mob Clan, lead by a penguin names Max1234. I went undercover, and within a few days a Clan of mine ambushed them in the HQ. I came up with s revolutionary idea. I’d create an alliance with this group, and we’d be known the ASF, or the Alliance of Snow Fort. Though there was much preaching throughout the streets on Snow Fort — my troops and I would tell everyone that the ASF controlled that server — no definitive control was put forth.

          A few weeks later, I was surfing the web, and came upon the discovery of Ninjas. I continued my search for the secrets of these Ninjas, and came upon a large community within Miniclip: The Club Penguin MiniclipForums. During this time period, most new CP users came from Miniclip, and the Miniclip Forums were the center of Club Penguin culture. It was the Forumer Vital Viper, in fact, who founded Mammoth as the “Forum Sever.” Soon, there was an election to decide the president of CP, held on the Forums, between Vital Viper and Big Balla. A group of my friends and I acted as security for the elections, which were held in Lambofun’s house. Though I voted for Balla, Vital won.

          It wasn’t until over a year later when it was found that a Moderator, RFS, screwed up the polls, and Vital Viper was in fact the winner. But at the time, I talked to Balla, and asked if the army I was planning to make could be the official defenders of CP, and the capitol (Mammoth) in particular. He agreed.

          Soon afterward, on September 29, 2006, I created the Army of Club Penguin right there on the Forums. The ACP was a revolutionary concept. There would be an army with one leader, one set of ranks, a set uniform (not just a color), a website as the base of operations,  and a single server to meet on. The ACP was the first army of it’s kind, and would change the face of Club Penguin for years to come.

          Our first uniform was the Mining/Construction helmet (combat helmet), Green Letter-jacket (camo), Boots (combat boots), Messenger Bag (supplies and pistol holster), Electric Guitar — at the time, red was the only guitar color — (snowball rifle), black color, and any eye-wear.

          Of course, it would be a long time before this army would become a CP-wide phenomenon. We had to be able to make it through our first two weeks.

The ERA of the FORUMS

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

I) WWII

          The Army thread grew faster than any of the other groups in the “Clubs and Teams” sub-forum. Within a week we had over 20 soldiers, which was more than most of the much-older and experienced clubs had. But soon, a penguin my the name of Explorer7777 created an organized center for the Romans, a series of Clan that had recently invaded much of Club Penguin. Within a few days, he had assembled an army that outnumbered us 4:3. The power got to his head, and he threatened the ACP, saying he’s “grind us into dust” if we did not surrender. But the Army was not created to give up. We accepted their declaration of war, and decided to hold the battle at the Vietnam battlefield-styled house of the ACP number two, Koolaidman7. By the time of the battle, the ACP has 35 soldier, while the Roman Army had nearly 50.

          On Friday the 13, the Romans marched onto our battlefield. This was the first formal battle any of us had ever fought in, and marked the beginning of WWII. We waited on the right side of the battlefield while the massive Roman army advanced. At 3:00pm PST (though PST was not established yet), I fired the first shot, and all Hell broke loose. We had fought for half an hour, and neither side was starting to give. We were using cover, because if we were hit by a snowball, we’d need to head over to the enemy’s “jail.”

          Soon, Koolaidman7 was captured. I swerved and dodged over to their POW camp, brought him back, and we continued fighting. There was severe lag, but we kept up the fire, and gave them no slack. After three gruelling hours, we had won the battle, and defeated the Roman Army. A few troops on both sides started exiting, but the bulk of ear armies was relentless.

          Finally, half an hour later, enough Romans had retreated for us to declare victory. A few of the enemies failed to accept defeat, but most of them did. The first and last jajor battle of WWII was through. We had defeated the Roman Army, which vastly out-manned us, and upon their destruction most of their soldiers joined the ranks of the ACP. Though WWII raged on, it was isolated to Dojos throughout CP, especially on Mammoth. The Army didn’t give up, and allied with the Vikings and Nachos, who helped us in our fight against the Roman Clans that continued to stream into the peaceful servers of CP.

          WWII didn’t end until the December of 2006, but by then the roots of WWIII had already been started. But throughout this time, the ACP made several advances that would seal it’s fate as the army of armies for Ages to come.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

II) AGE of CULTURE

          After our the first and last major, organized battle of WWII, the ACP grew at an exponential rate. During this time, not only did the number of soldiers increase, but our fame held an even farther reach. During November, our thread become the largest thread in the whole of the Forums, and become more viewed than the “Rules” thread itself. But that will be discussed later.

          During this stage of the ACP’s existence, the “culture” within the Army was at an all-time high. Most of the soldiers within the Army were some of the best of all-time, and are currently the standard to which all future generations of soldiers will be compared. These troops included Oagalthorp, Koolaidman7, David Shawn, Gorond, Nrop, Goozgooz, and Lt Giovvani. We would frequently defend the Mammoth Dojo, the epicenter of Roman attacks throughout CP, as they tended to invade populated areas and try to take the high ground.

          The ACP was not nearly as big as it is now, and we would often find ourselves outnumbered by the Romans. But we had an advantage over them. We would easily set  up a counter-attack at any time, whereas it took hours to form one of their raiding parties. Now, most robbery been halted, and the PSA in Mammoth was under our jurisdiction, so to speak. We also allied with the few Nachos on Mammoth, and many of the Viking Clans, along with some of the remaining Color Clans, especially Green and Black.

          By the end of the Age of Culture, the Roman raiding parties’ activity had been cut in half, we had united many smaller Clans who in turned joined us, our thread had become the largest on the Forums (which still remained the center of CP culture), we held Mammoth justly; defending if perfectly, our soldiers were loyal and perhaps the best of all time, and the world basically revolved around this Army. But this wouldn’t last . . .

 

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

III) The FIRST DEPRESSION

           The ACP was on top of the world. But that would all change after a weekend-long absence of mine. For the first time, I would not be able to lead the ACP for a weekend. I left some of the Generals – David Shawn, Gorond, and Nrop — in charge while I was gone.

          But the Moderators of the Forums had had enough. Nrop started a big game of “Halo stories,” where soldiers could tell fictitious tails about space combat. This led to many new comments (known as posts) under the ACP thread. The Mods took advantage of this, and many accused them of  “spamming.” Meanwhile, Nrop had gotten carried away, and created his own army: the CPUNSC. This new group recruited mainly ACP soldiers, including Us Soilder, who was thought to be one of the most loyal troops we had.

          By the time of my return, the Mods were trying to close the ACP thread, my most loyal General had betrayed me, many noobs had been brought into the Army, and by the looks of it, all hell had broken lose.

          I quickly took action. I first pointed out that most of the “spam” was simply soldiers chatting, and a few stories. The only thing close to spamming was the debates I had with a few army-oriented people, such as Akabob, and even that was far from “Stupid, Pointless, Annoying Messeging.” Though many Mods simply ignored me, due to their envy of the number of posts and hits my thread held. But I put up enough of an argument to keep the ACP from destruction. Meanwhile, since I put most of my energy into defending the ACP thread, I was not able to prevent the complete separation of the ACP and UCPUNSC, and a bitter rivalry was soon formed. The whole word of this Army appeared to be crashing down.

          I then decided to “out-source” the ACP. I joined a smaller forum, along with the Miniclip Forums, and set up an ACP thread there. This was the forum set up by Lt Giovvani, who was already a loyal ACP soldier. On his forums, a penguin by the name of Sf1998 saw the ACP thread. He thought it was pretty cool, so he decided to make the ACP a brother army: The Club Penguin Marines. After a small plagiarism argument,w e became close allies. The CPM soon grew as big as the ACP, but now within the Forums, but rather on a WordPress site. There, the CPM allied with the Nachos, as opposed to the Nacho Clans the ACP had allies with. The Nachos second-in-command, Zippy500, was already an ACP fan on the Forums. For this set of coincidences, the ACP and official Nachos had made an alliance through the CPM.

          Though our power on CP was growing, we still had a spamming problem on the Forums. And a whole heck of a lot was about to happen.

The ERA of WAR

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW! IV) PRUGING from the FORUMS

          Soon, chaos broke out on the Forums. Noobs were running amok, and several small wars amonst the armies in the Clubs and Teams subforum. Because of the spike in posts under the army threads — which was caused by the wars — the ACP thread was pinned as the scapegoat for the madness. Several Moderators spent their entire time on the Forums trying to shut down the ACP thread, while some simply tried banning the noobs, spammers, and flamers. Contrary to popular belief, the ACP thread contained next to no spam. Sure, we had fighting, but it was more like debating. Even so, the ACP thread had twice as many views as any thread on the Forums, including the “Rules” thread. We also had three times as many posts under the ACP than any other thread.

          After an argument with RPF, the head Mod on the CP section of the Forums, the unthinkable occurred. The ACP thread was closed.

          I put in a quick relief effort. Frantically, I tried to find some place to host the Army. I looked at the CPM, which was crumbling under the pressures of war, and decided to do what they did. On February 19, 2007,  I made a website. This website, to be exact. I never suspected that it could ever live up to the thread on the Miniclip Forums though. However, withing a week of the ACP thread being shut down, the chaos was only worsened. The Administrators shut down the CP subforum . . . for good.

          Soon, the Admins gave RFS permission to construct new CP forums, under a separate address so that the regular Forums would not be “polluted.” By this time, the ACP had crushed the CPUNSC and their allies in total war. They had thought that the ACP would be weaken because we lacked a thread, but this website only made us stronger. The battle was in my igloo, on Crunch, and we outnumbered them three to one. The battle lasted just half an hour, and despite Nrop’s — the leader of the CPUNSC — stubbornness, our enemies finally accepted defeat.

          Not longer after our resounding victory, the new Forums were finally completed. I made a new ACP thread, and within two weeks, the ACP thread become the biggest, most active thread on the Forums. Naturally, RPF was pissed.

          But he was the least of our problems. A new army had been spotted, and — though we didn’t know it at the time — they would not be defeated as easily as the rest.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW! V) UMA

          Unlike the Roman Army under Explorer7777, the CPUNSC did not completely die out. We re-allied with them, and actively worked towards a stronger alliance. We were rebuilding from the Depression, an Age we did not wish to repeat, and things were going well. The Moderators and RFS had gotten off our backs, and many new armies were eager to become our allies. But, yet again, things were only going to get worse after we peaked.

          One day in the late December of 2006, Nrop and a recon squad of his had spotted a new group in the Mammoth Boiler Room. They wore all black, with red head bandannas, red backpacks, and red skin. This group first appeared to be known as the “Uma,” a name we figured must just be another meaningless Clan title. Over the next few weeks, I ordered many scouting parties to scour Mammoth for these Umas, and their allies, the Gangstas. We’d often confront them in the Snow Forts and Boiler room, and, rather than shrinking like the other Clans, they only grew after each skirmish. Things were truly puzzling.

          I decided to search the web for these so-called Umas. I came upon a website run be a penguin name Pink Mafias, and found that he had created an army called the Underground Mafias Army. I was fine with that, but then I realized two things. First of all, I knew that he was attacking the ACP and vice versa. But secondly, and more importantly, his massive website was used for hacking several aspects of Club Penguin, uncluding rare cloths and coins. This seemed despicable. Attacking the Army was one thing, but deliberately screwing with the content of CP was another. It was even illegal.

          As usual, I did not hesitate to take action. Immediately, I commented on Pink’s site, stating that he must stop advertising hacks, and stop attacking Mammoth, otherwise the ACP would declare war. One of his top soldiers, Michael427, responded with the words “Bring it on.”

NEW!VI) WWIII

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW!WWIII: PART ONE

          The UMA had accepted war. I expected that, after a battle or two, we would be done with this army and move on. I was wrong. In January of 2008, I set up a raiding party to intercept a UMA attack on the Snow Forts. We were greeting by a group twice our size, who attacked us relentlessly. I knew we could not win this battle, so we regrouped at the Plaza. After this defeat, I decided to reconsider the Army’s tactics for this war. At the time, we had no hope of winning a battle in open, face-to-face combat. I decided to adopt a new form of warfare.

          In November of the previous year, the ACP was fighting a large group of Romans. All hope had seemed lost, when all of the sudden I had an idea. Why not break the regularly accepted, unspoken laws of combat? Why should we stay at one side of the field while the superior enemy continues gaining troops? Why not attack them in a full-scale charge? If we charged these Romans, we could through them into a chaotic frenzy, then they’d be too disoriented to fight. The ACP would regroup on the other side of the field, and charge again. We’d repeat this strategy until the Romans were defeat. This tactic worked better than I though; withing only thee charges and regroupings, they had been all but annihilated.

          I decided that we should attack the UMA with “hit-and-run” tactics. We would march throughout many rooms, gaining new recruits. When we saw the UMA, we’d attack for a little bit, and when they gained the upper-hand we’d fall back to another room and continue marching. We would repeat this until we were large enough to defeat them, at which time we’d march up to them, face-to-face, and fight o=in that room until we had won. The UMA may have outnumbered us, but we had a stronger chain of command, and a more centralized leaderwhip. This enabled us to move faster, and route them out. To this day, the ACP is still the “fastest” army in CP.

           Over the next few months, we continued fighting the UMA in a similar fashion. We’d win about three out of five battles, when all logic would dictate that we should win none of them. But we remembered the basic principles of warfare: You can’t win until it looks like you win. The victory of a battle was decided by what the average observer would see. This means that to win, we’d need to be able to outnumber the UMA. Though difficult and time-consuming, our new “Rapid Warfare” payed off. We managed to hold our own. That is, until April 14, 2007.

          Though the ACP had many small allied on the Forums, the UMA was undermining the ACP’s stronghold there. They allied with the CPUNSC, the second largest army there, and the Nachos. The Army was losing support, and the UMA was growing. On April 14, once the ACP had bottomed-out for this war, Pink Mafias decided to ambush the ACP at one of our meetings. Though I tried to inform every ACP soldier of this, it appeared to be all in vain.

          By the time the battle started, it took me nearly ten minuted to even get in the Dojo. It was lagging like crazy, and the room was absolutely full. By the time I got in, I saw nothing but black and red. The UMA had come early, and out-numbered us six to one. It took several minutes of chaos for me to rally a group of about 12 ACP soldiers to stage a counter-offensive, but it was not working. Most of the ACP soldier couldn’t even get in the room, and those that managed to get in could not see any of my commands due to the constant chant of “UMA UMA UMA.” Within twenty minutes of the most brutal massacre the ACP had ever been on the wrong side of, I decided that it was not worth it. No one was leaving the room, and my soldiers couldn’t get in. Even if they could, this battle was far from reversible. I had to surrender.

          I invited Pink Mafias to my igloo, where I formally surrendered; the first major defeat the ACP had ever had. Only a week beforehand, I had asked for an alliance. He had said no, but I figured I should ask again. Again, he said no. But he did agree to a small cease-fire agreement, which lessened the sting of defeat for most of the ACP soldiers.

          By that time I had learned many things from that battle. And next time, I would be prepared.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW!WWIII: PART TWO

          I decided to give up Mammoth. For the first time in the history of the ACP, our capitol — our home sever — our birth place — had been given up. The UMA was everywhere in Mammoth, all the time. So I solemnly moved the Army to one of our smaller, satellite server: Breeze. There, like the Allies during WWII in Britain, I would plan the ACP’s redemption.

          First of all, I changed the ACP uniform. To the dismay of several ACP veterans, I adopted the Roman helmet to be standardized. This made many angry, for the Romans had been our biggest enemy since our creation. But there was logic to it. Firstof all, the Roman helmet would make us appear larger, which would contribute to our recruiting ability and give us a more intimidating appearance. But more importantly, it would get many soon-to-be Roman troops to join us instead. Now we would be able to command larger forces in CP, and gain many new recruits.

          From Breeze, we would use the “marching” aspect of Rapid War to gain many new recruits. Then I would send all of my soldiers into Mammoth as a raiding party. Now, we would have the ability to form large, formidable forces without the UMA defeating us before we were ready to fight. Once Mammoth would be cleared of the UMA soldiers at that time, we’d regroup back to our new base, the Breeze Cave.

          After two weeks of surprising success, Pink became angry. How could such a seemingly insignificant group cause so much damage to our reign in Mammoth? So he planned another ambush. He had won the Battle of Mammoth, and he looked forward to winning the Battle of Breeze . . .

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

NEW!WWIII: PART THREE

           By this time, some ACP saboteurs had e-mailed the CP staff about the UMA and their hacking. Pink Mafias was then banned for ever, for excessive hacking,  and was forced to use the secondary file, Uma Pm. This weakened UMA morale, and nearly destroyed their leadership and chain of command. But they were still able to fight, and fight they did.

          The UMA decided to attack the ACP at one of their meetings on Breeze, to eliminate any threat before the Army could get onto Mammoth. On May 26, 2007, the UMA would yet again ambush the ACP and hopefully defeat us for good this time. But I could not allow that to happen. I chose the Cave as the ACP base so that, in case of another ambush, we’d have a more strategic position, rather than be crammed in the Dojo. Now we could get all of the ACP troops fighting, rather than just a handful that could get in the room. I made many tactical improvements to this Army, which include the new uniform, new base, and new allies.

          When I first heard of the oncoming attack, I immediately got to work. I made a post, reminding all of the soldiers of the impending battle. Then, I searched in the Web in the hopes of finding allies — any allies — that could help us during the war.

          I found many who were willing to help. First, I found the CPAF. Led by Db Penguin, they were nearly the size of the ACP, and were extremely well-led. Though a few of their soldiers had some disagreements with me, I managed to seal the alliance because I become a good friend of Db. Then, I found a seemingly small, less useful ally; the RPF. I was soon proven wrong about the “small and less useful” notion I had. The RPF had been fighting the UMA almost as long as we had, and they were led by Commando717. They accepted the alliance, and Commando and I, as with Db and I, become good friends. This friendship would solidify the fate of generations to come.

          On May 26, we were all waiting in the cave. The disastrous defeat at Mammoth had left us with a limited morale, but we had enough strength left to at least right. Soon, the RPF and CPAF arrived, and matched ur size. Then the UMA stormed the Boiler Room.

          I sent a scout to the Boiler, and he returned with the message “There’s a lot of them.” We tried holding the door, so that any new UMA’s wouldn’t be noticed by onlookers, but soon enough they flooded the Cave. The UMA sure gave us a run for our money. At one point, they outnumbered the Allies three to two. But I sent a charge of ACP soldier, and we started chanting “ACP ACP” over and over, until the UMA soldiers were covered in chat bubbles. But they just kept coming.

          Now that we had the upper-hand, we stormed the Boiler Room and sent any remaining UMA their retreating into the Cave. We held the Boiler for a short time with the CPAF, but the RPF was in need of help. We moved into the Cave, and the RPF were surrounded by dozens of UMA troops. We gave them as much support as possible, but the UMA still kept fighting. Then Commando and his army took the high ground, up at the life guard tower. The ACP seized this opportunity, now that the enemy was distracted, and took full control of the low grounds, where our battle-cries blotted out the UMA. Half od us stayed to fight, but half charged up and sent chaos into the mod of Pink’s troops.

          Once the CPAF and RPF gained enough troops to match the UMA’s size, I ordered the ACP into the Boiler Room, to block any entrances. Now the UMA was split between the two rooms, and we managed to defeat them. The ACP had finally managed to stand up to the UMA, and pull through a victory. We had won the Battle of Breeze, and the tides of the war had changed their course . . .

P.S. I hope no one takes any offense to these accounts. (I don’t see how anyone could. 😕 ) This story is as factual as possible, and I am trying to be as unbiased as possible. I am telling things as they were for the ACP, and am not entirely certain how any other armies’ views of these events may have differed. You can’t blame me for that. 😉

World War for Fun *TODAY*

Don’t forget about the UMA’s World War for Fun (WWFF)! The battle is today so we need everyone prepared. 🙂

  • DAY: Tuesday, December 30 (today)
  • TIME: 3:00pm PST
    —–6:00pm Eastern
    —–5:00pm Central
    —–4:00pm Mountain
    —–3:00pm Pacific
    —–11:00 am UK
  • SERVER: Shebert and Fjord (ACP will meet on Sherbert first)
  • ROOM: Everywhere (ACP will meet at the Snow Forts)

Since none of the leaders posted this lately, and the battle is today, I took the initiative to post it. Here are some guidelines:

  • Meet at the Snow Forts, on Sherbert. Most of the enemies will be meeting at Fjord, so we’re going to make Sherbert our stronghold. Of course, Boomer or any of the other leaders can order you guys to go anywhere later on.
  • Follow orders. Boomer will be leading the battle. If he cannot make it, or has to leave, Jedi/Ankita or Shab will lead. All orders will be given onthe ACP Chat.
  • Fight Spartan-style. Stand shoulder-to-shoulder, but don’t over-lap each other. We need to look as big and solid as possible.
  • Fire at enemies, not allies. This also means we need to work together. Enemies: Nachos, IW, Shadow Troops, RBAA, BB, RPF. Allies: UMA, CPAF, WW, CPW, RR.
  • Arrive 10 minutes early. Who knows which enemies will try to sabotage Sherbert before we can assemble. :-/

Oh, and the Nachos had a good idea. Add this to your comments:

  • Sir, yes sir! = Say this if you can make the battle . . .
  • Wha . . . ? = . . . this if you’re not sure . . .
  • Sorry sir. = . . . and say this if you can’t.

~Person1233~Nacho Leader~RBAA Leader~

Boomer: Start making space in your schedule, this is gonna be cool 😀

My side.

Rapidy: Hooray! I’m an editor again 😀

Boomer: I do get annoyed by his constant rank complaints, but I do also believe that firing him is excessive.  I am not mad about the decision, but I would prefer that we agree to override it if Jim agrees not to complain so much.  Let me just say this to get it out there, complaining about your rank probably lowers your chance of getting a promotion unless the leader is a pushover and gives in so you stop asking.  Unfortunately for people who have tried, I am not like that, so save your breath and let your service to the army do the talking.

Oagal: My side – If Jim is annoying, and does not cease to continue his annoying, then the leaders of the ACP have every right to fire him. However, he does deserve a fair warning and a second chance to change his behavior. But whatever; Boomer’ll be the decisive factor in the end. :-/

Sheila: In my opinion, he probably was being a bit annoying. He PC’S me ALOT asking for interviews and reccomendations for ranks…I would let him off w/ a 12 chat ban and a demotion…Just my opinion. .///.

Ok Sorry to post this over the post that i’m talking about (Im not an editor still so I couldnt edit this in) but firing someone just because you dont like them is harsh. I know what you mean about Jim, how he constantly complains about his rank, but I put up with him. And personally, I don’t think the co-leaders should be making this decision. Its suppose to be up to the real leader. And if Boomer isn’t annoyed by him, then leave it. You have an ignore button on chat and you can just tell him “No Jim, stop complaining.” But Firing him?? Thats a little intense….

Please look at the post below btw lol.
