Disclaimer: These lists do not reflect the opinions of ACP, they were created solely by myself. If you don’t like your placement in the first list, use it as motivation to work harder and prove me wrong. The second list is purely based on statistics, so there’s really no way to argue that. It is what it is. Enjoy.
This first list takes into account battle attendence, chat attendence, and site views. I hope for this to be used as motivation if you think I ranked you low, or as encouragement for working hard if you are listed towards the top.
The rating after the army shows how the army’s positioning has changed from the last one (August 3rd). I will update these every week, so we will hopefully get a better sense of how each army is doing. Feel free to post these on your site, but make sure you give me credit.
- Nachos [N/A]
- ACP (Army of Club Penguin) [N/A]
- IW (Ice Warriors) [N/A]
- FW (Fire Warriors) [N/A]
- BP (Black Panthers) [+1]
- DW (Dark Warriors) [+2]
- WW (Watex Warriors) [-2]
- ST (Shadow Troops) [-1]
- IMAF (Impossible Mission Army Force)* [N/A]
- RPF (Rebel Penguin Federation) [N/A]
Other:
11. UMA (Underground Mafias Army) [-2]
*Not in the Top 10 last week
Analysis:
The Nachos still appear to have the slightest size edge over ACP, however I haven’t seen any recent pics of their battles to know otherwise. In addition, the Top 4 armies all remained the same again this week. Other than BP, who appear to have grown in size from last week, numbers 6 through 8 are deceiving in that WW moved down the list, therefore DW, which remains about the same size, was forced to fill the spot vacated by WW. ST appeared to lose some size in a recent practice with BP, as compared to their larger showing with ACP last week, and they moved down one as well. IMAF was the surprise army this week, making the Top 10 for the first time. At a recent practice, they numbered as many as 12, which alone would have put them past RPF, ST, and even WW in some of their recent battles, however lower attendance at other battles kept them at number 9.
This Week’s Featured Army:
UMA (Underground Mafias Army)
You’re probably asking yourself why an army I didn’t even list in the Top 10 is the featured army. This is because I honestly have no clue whatsoever how big they are, and I felt it unfair to put them past other armies when they may not be. Realistically however, UMA is a Top 10 army, even more so now that they had their recruiting. Unfortunately they seem to have the same problem that the Golds had, which is their army is comprised almost entirely of leaders. The only soldiers that are sticking around are the ones who have power, and those who don’t have become inactive. My recommendation now that you had some recruiting and hopefully got some new soldiers, schedule a practice battle so your soldiers have something to do. Don’t forget to take pictures. If you have a good battle, make sure everyone knows. Being able to post pics of a battle where you destroyed the opponent is an easy way to pump up your army and encourage them to be active. Other than the recruiting pics, they haven’t posted a battle pic in over a week (and the last one was of ACP vs. ST, not even them). Put simply, you need to schedule practices and get on CP or that recruiting will have been a waste of time for you and the Nachos. Recruiting alone only keeps your army alive if you give the soldiers something to do.
Next is the ratings based purely on viewership of your site.
If you want your army to be listed here, make sure you have a Whos.Among.Us widget on your site, and then give me your site’s link. I will add you to the list.
Here is the list so far (the first number is the average number of viewers at one time [average throughout the day] over the span of a week, the second number is the average maximum number of viewers the site had during the day over the span of a week):
Note: Green means it went up, Red means it went down, Yellow means it didn’t change
- ACP (Army of Club Penguin) | 12.1 [0.1] | 35.0 [2.7] | [N/A]
- Nachos* | N/A | N/A | [N/A]
- FW (Fire Warriors) | 2.7 [0.3] | 15.4 [5.0] | [+1]
- IW (Ice Warriors) | 2.0 [1.1] | 12.1 [0.7] | [-1]
- IMAF (Impossible Mission Army Force) | 1.9 [0.9] | 9.0 [2.0] | [+5]
- WW (Watex Warriors) | 1.7 [0.1] | 8.0 [1.3] | [-1]
- UMA (Underground Mafias Army) | 1.6 [0.3] | 9.3 [2.4] | [+1]
- RPF (Rebel Penguin Federation)* | N/A | N/A | [+1]
- ST (Shadow Troops) | 1.3 [0.2] | 7.1 [2.8] | [-3]
- Romans | 1.1 [0.2] | 6.1 [0.2] | [+2]
- DW (Dark Warriors) | 1.0 [0.4] | 6.3 [3.3] | [-4]
- CPRA (Club Penguin Rulers Army) | 1.0 [0.0] | 5.6 [1.7] | [+1]
- BB (Black Bandits) | 1.0 [0.0]| 5.4 [0.4] | [+1] | [-1]
*Still working on a more accurate way to measure due to widget displaying hits from other sites in addition to their own, they are estimates
Note: Many of the armies that moved down the list may have only done so because IMAF moved up so much. Also note, the smaller armies (because they have lower and closer numbers to each other) will change positions requently.
Larger armies without widgets (in order by estimated hits count):
- BP (Black Panthers)*
*Have added the widget, but it hasn’t been up for a week yet, will be included in next week’s list
Analysis:
The Nachos may receive more viewers than ACP, but their widget makes it really difficult to get an accurate number, and I can’t really put an army at number 1 that I can’t defend with statistics, so they remain at number 2 for now. You’ll notice a lot of red in that list, which means it was a bad week for a lot of armies. IW may have been hit the hardest, losing their number 3 spot which they held for a while. Even with FW’s numbers falling, IW just had a really bad week, and will hopefully bounce back next week. With the exception of UMA, who probably grew due to their recruiting, and ACP, perhaps because of a leader change, everyone else went down. DW had a particularly rough week, falling out of the Top 10 completely. IMAF was the real story, with huge numbers and the biggest increase percentage-wise I think I’ve seen so far (they nearly doubled their viewership in one week), shooting all the way to number 5, a 5 spot increase. Well done IMAF!
This Week’s Most Improved Army:
IMAF (Impossible Mission Army Force)
I had to check the numbers twice because I was positive I made a mistake, but IMAF did in fact jump past RPF, UMA, DW, ST, and WW in the list. This means their site has been receiving more hits than any of those armies. This could be explained by a large number of practice battles, including an impressive showing against IW, which made soldiers more active and checking the site more often. An update tells me this is mostly due to a merge with the Nuggets, however I expect it to go down again next week, but maybe I’ll be pleasantly surprised again.
How to Get Recognized:
- Make sure you get on Club Penguin frequently, and take a lot of pics
- Post the best ones on your site so people appreciate your size
- Get a Whos.Among.Us widget for your site so you and others can keep track of how many viewers your site gets at any one time, or over a period of time
- Make a habit of entering your army in tournaments or attending battles as an ally so other major armies get used to seeing you around Club Penguin
