Developer Update!

Hey Penguins!

Billybob has given us some sneak peeks about what is coming up! Here is what Billybob has said on the Club Penguin Community Blog - 
Hello Penguins!

Here's an update on what we've been working on this week. We want to let you know a little bit about what we're doing here behind the scenes.

Adventure Party this month - We're putting the finishing touches on this month's event... the Adventure Party! I won't say too much just yet, but I hear a certain pirate may be making an appearance...

Clothing catalog and newspaper - We're doing some updates to our systems for the next few weeks, so the newspaper and this month's clothing catalog will be launching early next week instead of today. Don't worry, we'll let you know as soon as they're ready. Here's a sneak peek of the catalog:


(Billybob has posted an SWF of the catalog on the Community Blog. This means you can see the full catalog! Click here to see the catalog)

New free items - We're still sending out the two new items to everybody. It will take a few days for the new Red Hat or Blue Cloud background items to get to everyone's accounts.  

Bugs squashed - We squashed a bunch of bugs last night, so you can play Card-Jitsu again. We also fixed a couple issues with DJ3K that were causing Flash Player to freeze. Thanks for letting us know about them and helping us make Club Penguin better for everyone! 

New games - We've been working on a few new game prototypes. Thanks to those of you that beta tested Rollerscape and some of the other prototypes. You guys had some great feedback! We should have some new games up on the Beta Team site very soon.

Let us know if you have any questions in the comments. We're here to help! 

Until then... Waddle On!

I think all these updates coming are cool! I can't wait for the Adventure Party and it's great that we will get to test MORE NEW GAMES on the Beta Team page. The Club Penguin Team have updated a lot recently! I think it's a good thing that the catalog has been delayed because the team are BUSY SQUASHING BUGS! Let us know what you think of recent updates.

Music Jam Special Announcement!

Hey Penguins!

Billybob has posted a special announcement on the Club Penguin Community Blog. Here is what Billybob has said -

Hello Penguins!

Thanks to you guys, Music Jam has been awesome this year! It's cool to see so many of you dancing the robot and starting up your own bands.

We heard a lot of you don't want the party to end... You asked... and we've listened! 




Guess what... We're extending Music Jam for you! Now EVERYONE can party for an extra week!

How are you going to spend the extra party time? Let us know in the comments!

Until then... Waddle On!

I think it's great that the Music Jam is been extended until July 4th! I love the Music Jam and will continue to party for an extra week!

New Club Penguin Map

Click here for the BIGGEST LEAKED EXCLUSIVE EVER!

Hello everybody! Today the new Club Penguin map was released. Take a look:
This is REALLY cool! When you click on games, this is what you get:
That's really cool! It makes it easier and faster to play your favourite games! This is what happens when you click on shops:
Sadly this new map only comes to me when I first log in, and as soon as I exit it is gone and won't come back! Is anybody else having these problems?

SUPER EXCLUSIVE EPF Characters... Is There More to the EPF Than we Think?

Okay... So, today when I completed the Field-Op, I got a message that NOBODY else got... Take a look:
Okay, so I thought that was a MAJOR leak right there... attacking the Lighthouse with the giant drill?

But, that message is ONLY the beginning... Usually, it shows a picture of Gary or Herbert, but instead, it showed TONS of random NEW CHARACTERS, saying this message! This is a CRAZY exclusive that nobody else has found yet...
WHOA... What are some of those things!? There are a bunch of bots and bugs that we haven't seen before... AND Agent Dot, Klutzy, and Jetpack Guy! They haven't said anything at the end of any Field-Ops... But what is even stranger, is WHY are Cadence, Rory, Aunt Arctic, Sensei, and Rockhopper on an EPF message!? And WHO is that other crab? Klutzy's grandpa or something?... AND, that Puffle Trainer from the EPF Nintendo DS games is in there! Is she coming in to Club Penguin?

I think there is more to than the EPF than we think... If ALL these mascots, who we THINK have nothing to do with the EPF, are appearing in these messages... They OBVIOUSLY have SOMETHING to do with the EPF! And WHAT IS WITH THOSE WEIRD THINGS!? Some are familiar robots, but what's with those 2 blob things!?

This may just be the most interesting thing a penguin has ever come across... Please, let me know what you think!

Training-Ops #1 Cheats

Training ops? Huh? Yes, that's right! Field-Ops are done right now, since Herbert was defeated, but Gary and the Director are now giving us Training-Ops! To begin, go to the EPF Command Room and click the Field-Ops screen.
Now, this message from Gary will pop up:
Hmm... I wonder where we need to go? Oh, I know! It's in the power box, in the Secret Caves.
Once you're there, you will notice that your phone will start ringing. Click on it...
Today we must destroy the circuits! In order to do this, you have to roll over the red circles to see what symbol it has. Click on it, and then find the matching circle, and click on it, too. You must do this until all the circles are gone, and then, you'll win a medal and you'll get to see this message from... who? It keeps changing... The message I got, which is different from what others got, is this:

Excellent work agent - You cracked the enemy signal just in time!


The message you decoded said: "Klutzy! We strike the Lighthouse on Thursday. Bring the drill!"


This gives us time to prepare our defenses. Be on alert for our counter-attack.

Welcome to New Friends!

Hey Penguins!

Billybob has posted on the Club Penguin Community Blog. He has some exciting news for us!. Here is what Billybob has said - 

Hello Penguins!

This week, we're celebrating our favorite first memories of Club Penguin by welcoming new friends to the island!

We've heard that many of you wished you had items when you were new to the island. Guess what? To start the celebration, every new player will receive two items -- a new background and new hat! Check it out:

We'll also be giving these items to EVERYONE! If you already have a penguin, you'll get these two new items added to your inventory as part of the celebration! What do you think?

In other news... We'll have more sneak peeks and a special announcement here on the blog today and tomorrow. Stay tuned!

I think it's cool that everyone is getting two new items! Let us know what you think of these items.

Club Penguin Room Exclusives

Okay... While exploring today, I noticed a few things. First, on an upcoming Club Penguin feature, it shows the Tallest Mountain, which we can't currently access... with landings on it! Look:
What would that be for? New rooms, maybe? Also, what's with this weird path? 

Yeah, sure there are some party rooms there sometimes... But this path makes it look like a permanent room may be coming soon! The final thing that I found is some strange lake, in the middle of no where, surrounded by trees...

This is very strange... I wonder if any of these are hints of new rooms coming soon? Leave a comment with your thoughts.

-Slidoo

New Map Sneak Peek

Hello penguins - Happy77 has decided to give us a new sneak peek! This time, it is about the new Club Penguin map.



Wow... That looks REALLY cool! I love how you can turn off different icons, so it will make it easier for new players to find out what's on the island. What do you think? How many bugs do you think it will have when it's first released? How many times will we have to clear our caches?

-Slidoo

Club Penguin Agents Party Review

Hey penguins!

WOW! June17, Dj Wazzer and I just had so much fun at our Club Penguin Agents summer party! It lasted over an hour and a half and was SUPER fun! It was one of the smallest parties I have ever had, likely because it was on a Sunday, and because we had to reschedule SOO many times, but it was still super fun!
Dj Wazzer, the newest addition to the Club Penguin Agents crew kicked off this party! Everybody had fun and Dj Wazzer was a GREAT party host! Here are some pictures of Dj Wazzer's Club Penguin Agents party:
Dj Wazzer went to the Iceberg, Nightclub, Pizza Parlour, and the Mountain! It was a fun-filled party for sure! In fact, one awesome penguin named Salwan4 loved Dj's party so much that he made a video about it! Check it out:

Also, my friend Syka took a picture of Dj Wazzer's party:
This is what Dj Wazzer had to say about his party:


Next, June17 took over and just like Dj Wazzer's party, June's was really fun and exciting!
June and anybody who was at his party really had a blast! They traveled all over the island and had so much fun! Once again, Syka took a picture of June's party:
Here are some more pictures, taken by June17, of his party:
And, here is what June17 had to say about his party:
As you already know, the party started at the Pizza Parlor. We danced there for about 2 minutes and I added about a dozen penguins. It was crazy! So many people asking for an add. Anyway, we then headed to the Dock. Again we danced and more people asked for adds. Then we head on over to the Mountain. We danced and had about 5 sled races with some of the penguins. Everyone started cheering my name and said I rocked xD. Next, I invited them to my igloo. I kinda lost SOME people(I think) . Everyone said "WOW" and everyone LOVED my igloo. We danced and I tried to give postcards, but it was too laggy because of all the furniture and people. We then waddled on over to the Nightclub. As usual, we dance and we also had a Dance Contest. It was fun! At least 10 people were competing. I then had the chance to send people postcards. They also sent some postcards to me, too. Then, we went to the Cove. People asking for adds and postcards. It got pretty intense. To end the party, we went back to the Pizza Parlor. Added a few more people. Everyone was sad when I had to leave. Anyway, that was it. 
And finally, the part that people cared about the least... Slidoo's party! Believe it or not, my party had less penguins at it than Dj Wazzer and June17's parties, but I'm fine with that! They deserve it! 

Although the party was small, it really was great! We had an amazing time and went all over the island, dancing, playing, and even eating country preserves!
We had so much fun exploring the Music Jam party! We never knew what we'd find, and then we came across a little snack...
After we finished our not so tasty snack, we went on and played some music, broke a stage due to the amount of penguins on it (sorry Club Penguin...) and had even more fun!
Sadly, the party ended... It ended in my favourite room in the Music Jam, the Coffee Shop! Everybody was sad...
But, after a bit of convincing, any penguins who were still there went to my igloo with me to check up on my puffles!
The party was, in my opinion, fantastic! It would have been nice to have some more penguins there, but it doesn't really matter because it was still awesome partying with a small group such as the one we had today! I know that all 3 of us would love to do it again... and in the near future, I'm sure we will! ;-]

-Slidoo, Dj Wazzer, and June17
The best staff ever. ;)

PENGUIN BAND and CADENCE Trackers

Hello penguins!

Lately, tracking here at Club Penguin Agents has become more and more successful, so we want to make it even better for you! During the Music Jam 2011, the Penguin Band and possibly DJ Cadence will be making guest appearances, and we're ready to track...

The Club Penguin Agents mascot trackers are always one of the most successful, so it's a very wise choice to track with us! Remember, if you find a mascot with us and you tell others, make sure to spread the word that you found it from us! It helps out a lot, thanks!

Here is the chat... Please remember to be a great friend and be helpful! Don't lie about locations, and don't say bad things... Note: Locations will be posted at the bottom of the chat (scrolling text)


DJ Cadence is Club Penguin's best dancer and most popular DJ! She is currently waddling around for the first half of the Music Jam 2011.

-Cadence visits the Town, Nightclub, Nightclub Lounge, Nightclub Rooftop, Ski Village, and the Casa Fiesta.
-Cadence often visits other language servers early in the morning, and then English servers throughout the day. She can be spotted on other language servers, especially Spanish servers throughout the day, as well, but not as much as on English servers.
-Cadence is very popular and the room is usually full when you meet her. If it is your first time meeting Cadence, you will see the Cadence stamp sign appear as soon as you're in the same room as her. She will probably have a very big crowd around her.
-She usually visits popular servers such as Mammoth, Yeti, and Blizzard.
The Penguin Band is currently waddling around with their new looks for the Music Jam 2011!
-There are 4 members of this band: Petey K, Franky, G Billy, and Stompin' Bob.
-The band members are never together on the island, unless they are performing at the Iceberg.
-The band visits Backstage, the Dock, the Town, the Casa Fiesta, and Nightclub, the Nightclub Lounge, and the Rooftop!

Another EPF Message From G

Hey Penguins!

G has sent all agents another new message on the Spy Phone - 



The message says - "New Field-Op tomorrow. Each class lead will be running a training operation over the next few weeks. Check the Command Room for orders."

Field Ops will be returning tomorrow! Each FIeld Op will be related to each of the different classes. Let us know if your looking forward to the return of Field Ops.

- Dj Wazzer, Club Penguin Agents author

EPF Message From G

Hey Penguins!

Agents should check their Spy Phones because G has sent us a new message - 


The message says - "Field-Ops will be returning soon. Since Herbert is hiding, we'll assign weekly training-ops instead, so agents can continue earning medals."

G is telling us that Field Ops will return soon. The Field Ops will improve help Agents improve and we will still be able to earn medals. Would you like to see harder Field Op, mini - games?, or do you think that the mini - games are already difficult? Send us a comment and let us know!

Reviewed by You: Memories

Hey Penguins!

Last week, the Club Penguin Team asked us what our favorite part of the Music Jam was. Zoeyice said -

 
Hey Club Penguin! I love the music jam! My favorite part is how there is so many different styles of music. I also love going to penguin's own music jams at their igloos! Oh, and I love how the Penguin Band floats in this year and their rocking new threads! Oh, and I hope to meet Candance and the Penguin Band. Waddle on!!

Music List Update

Hello hello! It is me, Slidoo!

Today, as you may already know, Club Penguin gave members the ability to record their own music with DJ3K! Well, I thought it was really cool that you can now play your recorded music INSIDE your igloo!
This is so cool! I'm really glad that Club Penguin added these features, what about you?

-Slidoo

DJ3k Recording Feature Update

Hello penguins!

I hope you like mixing music, because if you do, there's a whole new feature in Club Penguin's not so popular music mixing game, DJ3K! When you visit the Nightclub, and click on this game, a new option comes up...
My Saved Mixes! Sounds GREAT! I can't wait to hop on to all of my penguins and save lots of music... But wait, this IS Club Penguin we're talking about, which means... Members only! Yup, sadly, this new feature is for MEMBERS ONLY.  Let's have a look at what it looks like, inside the game:
This looks so cool, and simple! All you have to do is press the record button while mixing music, and it will record! Once you're done, click the giant red button again, and then you'll have the option to save your tune!
Wow! This update is REALLY cool! It's too bad that all my non-member friends can't save their music, though. What do you think about this update?

New Ninja Merchandise!

Hey penguins!

Club Penguin has JUST released the NEW Ninja merchandise! This stuff is for member ninjas ONLY and can be found in a catalog, located inside the ninja dojo. Let's look at the new stuff...
Hmmm... Some pretty strange stuff there.. But it is very ninja-ish! Also on this page, you can find 2 more hidden items:
Click on the leaves that I circled in the image above for the Thunder Gi and the Bolt hair style!
Let's look at more new things...
Once again, some very mysterious clothing items on this page! Just like on the previous page, there are 2 secret hidden items.
Click on the leaves circled for the Tea Cinder and Tea Ceremony Robe!
There is one more page, with only one item on it...
This golden sun suit is really unique and cool!

These items seem really neat... Too bad you can't actually buy them yet! When you try, it calls these items "undefined" and then does not let you purchase them. Hopefully this will be fixed soon!

Club Penguin - Domain Q&A

As you may know, Club Penguin is experiencing domain trouble. Although it is 100% their fault, they are working as hard as they can to get it back up. Here is a little bit more information:

Q: Is Club Penguin working again?
A: For some penguins, yes it is, but it is currently not working for most penguins.

Q: What exactly happened?
A: Well, Club Penguin "forgot" that their domain expired.

Q: When will they be back?
A: For some penguins the game is back already, it should take no longer than 48 hours for Club Penguin to be open worldwide once again.

Q: Some penguins say Club Penguin is gone forever! Is this true?
A: Absolutely not. Nobody else except Disney Club Penguin has purchased the clubpenguin.com domain, and it is now owned by Disney once again. It is just taking longer for the domain to start working again, for some penguins.

Q: Is Club Penguin Agents finally going to change it's look soon?
A: Why Yes... Yes it is.

I hope this cleared things up for some of you guys. ;-]

Club Penguin's Domain Expires

As if we weren't already tired enough of Club Penguin's glitches and problems, this happened.

Today, the clubpenguin.com domain expired. What does that mean? Hmm... Maybe that their entire website is down and anybody could soon buy a website with the address, clubpenguin.com. In the end... This could be a big problem.

BUT OH DON'T WORRY! Club Penguin is WORKING HARD like ALWAYS to ensure that the game and website is back up! Of course... first we'll have to clear our cache, right? ;-]
Yeah, I am getting pretty tired of looking at the smirking clown.... But once again DON'T WORRY! Just clear your cache and everything will be okay, right?

Uh... no. Club Penguin needs to start giving real advice and realize that it's THEIR problem, not OURS. Right? So... Today, I went evil, and this is the... "friendly"... letter that Club Penguin received:

Hello Club Penguin,

I am very disappointed with Club Penguin lately. I, along with 95% of other penguins cannot visit the Club Penguin website. 

You have had so many bugs and glitches lately, and many members of the support group are not helpful and continue to tell us that it is a problem on OUR side, when we know it is not. Some penguins have been given false answers by many support members, and the glitches get worse and worse. It is happening too often and I am starting to not find the game enjoyable because of these glitches and the poor support services we are offered. I have a website and Cadence and Penguin Band tracker which many penguins would like to use, but sadly we cannot work together and have the fun of tracking because of your glitches. I know you were not expecting this domain or host problem to occur, and if this was the only problem in a while, I would not be so concerned. But problems such as technical glitches on the blog, OR the game, happen every week and we are getting frustrated.

Before releasing a feature or game or party, can you please test it out to make sure EVERYTHING works? 

Whenever we penguins email the Club Penguin support team, we usually receive an unsatisfying answer, sometimes that is just plain effortless, other times that is false. When you call Club Penguin support, the care you get is even worse. If you call to report a glitch, the person often just giggles and tells you it's no big deal. The support team seems to think that we do not know anything about technical problems in Club Penguin and on websites, and give us careless answers. This makes us even more upset because we know that the representatives from Club Penguin are taking advantage of the fact that they are likely dealing with kids.

I know you are working hard to make the game more enjoyable, and I applaud you for that, but many of these problems are making it less enjoyable. However, when the features work, the game is great! Unfortunately, the features hardly ever work when they are first released. And now, this domain problem is really upsetting me, along with my friends.

About 5-10% of the penguins that I know can currently log in to Club Penguin. The rest get a strange other site with links that I would not like to click.

I am now missing out on chances to meet the Penguin Band, and enjoy the Music Jam 2011. I suggest extending this party for however many days the website is down for, so we do not lose out on anything. 

If there is any way to bring what I have mentioned up in one of the meetings you have, that would be great. It would be very nice if the support team started seeming like they actually cared, or knew what they were talking about... (I'm not saying all the support members are like that, but several of them that I have dealt with are.)

I really hope that the website and glitches are fixed soon... And sorry if I sounded kind of harsh in this message...


-Slidoo


Club Penguin, it's true. And we all know it! So, please, hurry up and fix this domain problem... And PLEASE, don't EVER tell us to clear our caches again...!

Update: I got a reply... 2, actually... and I think you can guess what they said.

-Slidoo

Message From The Director

Hey Penguins!

The Director has sent all agents a new message on the Spy Phone -


The message says - "Listen agents - if mistakes were made, we must learn from them and move on. That is why we are a force of agents. No one is perfect."

That is a nice thing for the Director to say. Those are some very positive words. I think the EPF will be able to learn from these mistakes.

EPF Message From Jet Pack Guy

Hey Penguins!

Agents should check their Spy Phones because Jet Pack Guy has sent a new message - 



The message says - "Nah, it ain't your fault G. I shouldn't have lost my cool, and dared Herbert to attack us. It's my bad - I apologize."

Jet Pack Guy is apologising because of what Herbert did to the EPF. Who do you think is to blame?
