It is 00:23 on September the 3rd, 2011. I am 14 in in just over an hour and a half. And this, I feel, is the time to end it. End my journey through CP armies.

It’s been amazing. Honestly. I haven’t been on much the past year, but before that I loved it. I loved everyone and everyone involved in it.

I wish I could have done more. I wish I could save the ACPTR site and bring democracy to the ACP. I wish I had had more ambition, because I don’t think I honestly tried hard enough sometimes. But still, I believe my ACP career has been exceptional and I enjoyed it, which was probably most important of all.

I will miss the people most of all. Your all great. (You’re all great ! Grammar is overused). I couldn’t name all of my friends, but here is a list of some I will remember.

Mchappy, Omega, Chase, Speeder, Lumarnara, Bluenev, Ias, Matre, Ollie, Wolvetone, Snowballpink, Slider, CG. The list goes on. I’ve been off for so long I’ve forgotten many names. But I do remember you, even if not exactly.

Parting advice? Be good. Don’t be idiots. Have a good time. Live in the present, or whatever I said.

Regrets? Over the past year I’ve had many, but they’ve all failed to really materialize. So, my answer is no. I have no regrets about my time here. It’s been AWESOME.

So that’s me, rapping up.

Oh, and Nina. I couldn’t forget her. My best friend in club penguin armies. One of my best friends in real life, I said. I’m going now, but I’ll never forget her. When I sounded cold on our last ever chat together, it was because I honestly believed it would be our last ever chat. It was. I’ll miss them.

The ACP is amazing. The ACPTR is amazing. The CPU is amazing. And you are amazing.

From the 19th of February 2009 to the 3rd of September 2011, it has been truly stunning.

I wish you all wonderful lives.

1 human year = 12 penguins years

(1 human month = 1 penguin year)

Eg: I spend 3 years on Club Penguin – taking me up to 36 years old. Another 18 months on club penguin takes me up to 54 years old before I retire. It is nearly 4 months since then, and am now 58 years old.

Pensions

Pensions are your total wages (excluding bonuses) of your entire career in the ACP added up, averaged (to the number of years you’ve been there) and divided by 10. So your pension is 10% of your average career wage.

eg:

• Twingy joins as a corporal. He stays a corporal for a month. 30,000^>
• He is promoted to Seargent, and stays a seargent for 2 years .  50,000 x2 = 130,000^>
• Twingy gets a big promotion to 1st Leuitenant. He is a major for another 2 years. 60,000 x2 = 250,000 ^>
• Twingy gets a promotion to Colonel. He is a Colonel for a month. 70,000 = 320,000^>
• Twingy is made a Lt General. He is a Field General for 3 months.  90,000 x3 = 590,000^>
• Twingy is made a Division General. He is a division general for 8 months before retiring. 100,000 x8 = 1,390,000

So my total earnings – 1,390,000 are divided by my amount if time in the ACP. Which, for this, is 1 year and 5 months aka 17 penguin years.

1,390,000/17 = 8176 ^>

(which in fairness sounds quite logical)

Added onto state pension which is 10,000^> regardless of what you do (for all ACP owned states).

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

However, the other idea is that you get 10% of your wage fo each year all put in a pot :L

1. Front Spammers(1):These penguins are the main attackers, and usually use emote or word bombs. There will be at least 7-10 penguins in a line, preferably more but not more than 20, to wipe out their forces.
2. Front Line(2): These penguins separate the two spam groups and create a wall of words or emotes.
3. Middle Spammers(3): These penguins control the area which the acp owns. They can use a mixture of tactics as long as their not lines.
4. Back Line(4): These employ the same wall as the front line.

Uses:

• In attack: Just like in the picture.
• In attack on 2 fronts: Another spam group is created at the other end (5, Back Spam Group)
• In defense, still fighting: Keep as in the picture.
• In defense, being heavily attacked: The walls go to the outside, and the spam groups 1 and 5 join with spam groups 3 (middle spam group). The two above work for being attacked on 2 fronts.

Remember, the gap between the front line and the back line could be multiple rooms. If this happens, keep spam group 3 big.

I think this it.

Since February 19th, 2009, Club Penguin Armies have been a major part of my life. To be frank, they’ve been an amazing part of it. Something that’s given me a lot of grea things. But recently, my work and effort and desire to be on it has slipped away. I don’t really know why.

I think I finalized my decision a few days ago on chat. Ever since I saw a post on the original IW site, I always basically followed its rules. I forgot the quote, but I still remember its meaning. You’ve got to want to be on to stay on. And I realized, just today, that it was time to go. A noob said to me “do u wanna go on cp”

The honest answer was no.

I don’t quite understand why my desire has slipped away. I’ve been having a great time. Although, I have been considering retirement for the last 2 months, throughout being acptr leader. It’s sad to think it’s coming to an end, the friendships, battles, and noobs, and I do feel sadness. But I know it has cometh to a closeth.

This is the part where I’m meant to go into my history, but I won’t. My history’s boring. But I’ll tell you what this means to me.

A lot… Friendship. Comfort. Courage. Experience. Laughter. Trust. Advice. Help. Sadness. Guilt. Loiss. Teamwork. Work. Not-doing-home-work. Fun. Snowballs. Tournaments. Talent. Competitiveness. Arguments. Badmen. Nicemen. Noobs. A bloody good time, I’d say.

But my CP army experience wouldn’t have been complete without the friendship of so, so many. Throughout the loss, sadness, etc I’ve still had an amazing time. Now it’s time for the long list of thank yous, which you’ll probably use ctrl-f to find yours and then skip to the end of the post. I don’t mind, I always do it.

Nina: I think we always knew you were gonna be first. You’re my best friend in CP armies, ever. To be frank, you’re one of the best friends I’ve ever had, anywhere. Everytime you’re on chat we start the conversation with (hug) and end it with (hug). We laugh, give advice, and have a great time.I’ll miss those coversations, because they really put light in my day. I’ll miss loads, and, with a wave of ma hanky, I bid you goodentag. Oh, and (hug).

Mchappy: You’ve got a long road ahead of you. Ever since you first lead the CPU, many years ago, you had the crededentials and desire to be a great leader, and I know you are. Soon you’ll be acp leader, you’ll be the best ACP leader there ever will be/ But don’t forget where you came from. Don’t lose track of old friends when you become a household name. Aome people say you’ve changed, and yeah, you probably have. But it’s a change for the good, and everyone will realise that in the end. Unless their nachos. So good luck, I love you, Rawr, meep, and goodbye.

Wolvetone: You were my first “best friend” in CP marmies. And an amazing friend you were. When we talked, it was always entertaining and all, and we had a great friendship, I was really sad when you vanished, but after I got in contact with you, I knew you made the right decision for you. I wish you luck – you deserve it.

Omega: Chrissssssssssssssssy boi! Our perverted conversations kept me alive. You’re hilarious. A really funny, say-what-you-feel kinda guy. I’ll miss you a great deal because even though we started off with a rocky friendship, it grew unti, we became xat BFFs. I still remember how we became friends, you stopped Itunesgeek from blackmailing me. And I’ll always be greatful for you being there. Have a good life, rape some camels, and don’t forget me.

Snowballpink: Snowww! You’re a great person and I honestly don’t think I’ve ever met someone more devoted to the ACPTR than you. I’m sure if you want ACP leader, uoi can get it. And I think you’re not sure whether to stay in armies or leave again, but I’m certain you’ll make the retirement post.

Cg2916: The biggest mistake I ever made was not voting for you when you signed up for the ACPTR> However, you still won and you were the best staff member I could’ve hped for. When you left, I was sad, and I was a bit annoyed you didn’t do a retirement post, but the friendship we had was worth 10 retirement posts I realise now.

Jack: I’ve given the ACPTR to you, and I know it’s in safe hands. I know we’ve quarelled but you’re a damn good staff member. Good luck, and I’ll always be available to advise you if you need me.

Bluenev1: The first person to join the CPSIF. You gave me hope, that the army could be succesful. It wasn’t, but our friendship was. You’re a great guy, and good luck.

Skloop: You’re an awesome co-leader, and you’re great for the ACPTR. Your an amazing CPAC head and you’ll get to elad acp someday. Maybe you’ll make the biggest decision club penguin warfare has ever seen soon.

Buckleybeans: You’re a great guy, and you’l be an ACP owner rank very soon. I’ve had real fun with our swear chats in PC. Oh, and btw, you are now senior European ACP representitive. So good luck with that. Take this crown with pride, and remember our friendship.

Noseycjr: September 3rders! You’re a great guy, and I’m sure I’ll be stuck with the name Noseycjr every time it’s my birthday. Happy Birthday, man!

Lumaranaraara: The first ever friend I ever had on ACP chat. My hamster was never the same again… I miss those noob days, and the CPSIF days… good luck.

Cas: Good luck. You pretty much achieve anything you want to achieve so you won’t need it. IBut make sure your eyes don’t get too big for your stomach . But you’ve really grown on me these past fwe months, and I wish you well. Up Labour!

Solraida: My first mentor. Nothing much to say, but thanks.

Feephill: Saw? I think not. Not to me. To me, Feephill is the best damn mentor a penguin could ever wish for.

iasgae: My 3rd, unnoficial mentor. You were a great ACP leader, and a really reliable friend. You were also seriously funny. I owe a lot to you. The guy I once thought was called Lasagne has become an amazing friend.

Matre: You were a great leader, and of course, tree. The second best there ever was. But you were also a great friend. Thanks for offering me 3ic, and sorry I turned it down.

Ollie: WE fought, but we had a good laugh. We’re British, so we’re allowed to do that. BTW, we retired so near to each other, we might be neighbors in RETIREMENT CITY =D. See ya later, neighborino. DIDDLY!

Danny9632: Nice guy, really devoted. Good luck.

Jojordan12: Good luck with the heart op and getting to IMAF leader. Whenever I get a PC that says SAUFAPSUDFHAPUSDFHAPUIDSFHAUDSHFPUAD DIFHAD[PIFHPADIF DIFJA[SDIFJA[DSI I'm happy because I know I've got a friend to talk to.

Timmy0000 and Mr Dunning: Thank you for taking me firing you so well. And, you are great funny guys as well.

Speeder: Apart from that vermin you worshup, you're a really nice guy. Good luck, or as snoic the blue *cough* vermin *cough*... errr... hedgehog says, TO INFINITE AND BEYOND.

Funks: Good luck, becaus I'm sure you'll lead a major army one day. A really reliable friend.

Bluesockwa2: You're also a really reliable friend, good luck with CPAC and all you do.

Chase: You're a really, really nice guy. Good luck with CPU and ACP.

Aero Master: We were the best alpha div gens ever. Period.

Kenneth1000: You really have true potential to be acp leader some day, and I really think you'll get it. Otherwise, you'll serve as 2ic for a long time and be great at it. Good luck, ducky.

Bobcatboy: You're a good leader, and you seem to have a natural ability as leader like boomer matre, and oagal, you're leading the acp to new heights.

WiggieNn: Your a great guy, and I've known you for a bloody long time. Sup (8ball).

Boomer: You're the best acp leader ever, and a really nice guy. Your devotion was outstanding and the acp will miss you when you go because of the legacy you left. It's gonna be damn hard to beat.

Oagal: You created the ACP. THANK YOU, SO SO MUCH!

Shab: You're a really nice guy, thanks for believing in me.

Rad2222: Whatever you did to my pengy, you are forgiven. Wjatever you did to bluenev, sorry, but you're not.

Tylo: Thank you for being such a great advisor and friend to me as a lead the acp.

Cooldude Joe: Thanks for all the CPU times and friendly times!

Ekpenguin9: Nice and funny guy. Good luck.

Nathancool1: I loved watching you grow from the naked penguin creator to a highly respected head reporter on CPAC.

Sofia011: I had great fun hanging out on IW chat, thanks to you.

J55559: You're a really cool guy and a good laugh. I can really see you getting a high rank in any army, so good luck.

Flipper: I haven't known you for long but I like to think of you as a friend.

Dee: The CPUN is amazing, and you're amazing too. Maybe your timezone holds you back but you certainly are an ambassador to Asian and Oceanic soldiers everywhere.

Superfroggyd: Best. Apprentice. Ever.

Totojess1 & Ally Cally & Mirrie3: The best cadets to ever grace the face of the earth.

To the ACPTR:

As my parting gift, I leave you Jack. It's your choice whether you take it as a gift or use him as food, or some religous sacfrifice, but I'm sure he'll do well with you. The ACPTR is an amazing thing, and is making the future of the ACP. Many of the cadets will get owner ranks. But I've enjoyed the experience and it's not only the cadets that learn from it. Since the day I was hired, I've had a great time.You will survive!

To the ACP:

Wow. You are the best army in club penguin not because of your name, not because of your leaders, not because of the fact that we seem to win everything, but because of the troops. The brilliant penguins - no, people, - that make this army and make it who it is. It's my favourite army; and what I have come to accept as my army. Till the end of time, or at least till the end of club penguin, you'll always be there. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, it doesn't matter. It's the people that counts.

Well there it is.

Well there we are.

My time in armies has come to a close now, and I am looking to my real life now. But I promise never to forget you. Never forget the fun, never forget the experience and never forget you. I might forget names, but I'll never forget happiness. So I'll never forget armies.

The party was amazing. Nina and me really went out with a bang, and I thank you so so much for that. And just to anyone who ask, no I didn't just type this all up in 5 minutes. I've had an amazing time guys, through the recruiting, battles, tactics and parties, and it's been what I call a bloody good run. So much have I accomplished, but more have I learnt from all of you. I will never, ever forget this.

I wish you all, so, so, well where ever you go. Let your dreams carry you to the farthest reaches of your imagination until they become reality. Because nothing is impossible. This might seem a bit corny and deep coming from someone like me but I mean it. Follow your heart. You could follow directions, but where's the fun in that? Embrace the present.

But never forget the past

As the ACPTR is not fully tax-payer funded, it costs 5000^> per month** + additional, optional costs such as the end of month trek through Yeti.

If you graduate with A+, you get a 30,000^> bonus*.

If you graduate with a B, you get a 20,000^> bonus*

If you graduate with a C, you get a 5,000^> bonus*

Staff:

Leader: 80,000^>

Co-leader: 60,000^>

Drill Team Leader: 40,000^>

Subject Teacher: 30,000^>

Advisor: Voluntary or 10000^>

Bonuses

+New Staff Member – 5000^>

+Medal of Training – 10000^>

+Promotion Within ACPTR – 2500^>

Pensions

The ACPTR awards pentions to all former staff dependant on how long you stayed, ie.

If you stay in the ACPTR for 6 months and are a DT Leader for the whole time, then you will recieve the salary you got (half of one year, 20,000^>) divided by 4 = 5,000 pention per year.

However, if you serve as DT leader for 3 months, then co-leader for 6 months, you will get a quarter of a DT leaders annual salary divided by 4 – 2500 + 7500 (half of a co-leaders annual salary divided by 4). 10,000 per year.

+Being a medal of training – 1000^> per year.

Pention Scheme under no-use until ages are worked out.

Stars

*So, logically, if you graduate you get your money back.

**Trips Include – Yeti Trek at the end of the month, History Trip to the Dojo of Mammoth, SSACP Tour, and others.
