Penguin of the Week: Meggbot - October 27 2015

The Penguin of the Week (POTW) for October 27, 2015 is Meggbot, as chosen by herself. Meggbot has taken over the blog the past few days, and thus made herself the Penguin of the Week. Earlier, we were told we need to stop Meggbot by finding her fear! I think we're close, but she is gaining more power as the days go on. Our least favourite robot said this about her own nomination:

This week's Penguin of the Week is none other than your almighty ruler, Meggbot! 10,000 coins and the Penguin of the Week background will be given to me! Yay me!

I'd like to thank myself for this outstanding nomination, Megg for creating me, and myself again for the genius plan to takeover the blog.

Would you like to be the next Penguin of the Week? Leave a comment letting me know why -- and IF you can convince me why you deserve the title, you may be featured... but there's no guarantee! 

Well well, it seems like we have competition here. I doubt she will last out to see the next POTW, so let's hope that a regular penguin is chosen by next week. This is a prime example of why people shouldn't create robots to do their dirty work... lazies.

URGENT: Stop Meggbot from Taking Over the Blog!

An urgent message from Megg has been posted on the Club Penguin blog!

This is urgent, and I don't have much time... I've heard we need to find Meggbot's fear in order to get the blog back!

One of my fears is spiders, maybe that will work? I've put on my spider costume... but maybe try sending in your best spider drawing to our fan art page... I gotta go!

Good luck,

-Megg

Hurry everyone. Save the blog before Meggbot takes over.

There's A Club Penguin Reunion Party TOMORROW

There's a reunion party on Club Penguin tomorrow! The time and date is below.

Thanks to KingBoo8884, Mrzero3, Pen50gi, Spikey2007, Bacon, Claire 62, Pup1one, Rosytilly and Jdan1001 for organizing this meet-up!

Meggbot said this on the blog:

Tomorrow marks 10 WHOLE YEARS of Club Penguin. Lucky for you, a few passionate members of our community have organized a giant online meet-up to help celebrate.

There's even a rumor that well-known penguins will be in attendance... I'm not a fan of parties, so I, of course, will stay here and maintain control of the blog.

Club Penguin Blog: Mini-Game Music Fixes

Meggbot has posted something new on the official What's New blog for Club Penguin. She has announced that the mini-games with broken sound/music will be slowly but surely fixed over the coming weeks, and she's even provided us with dates. Card-Jitsu Water, Catchin' Waves, Cart Surfer, Pizzatron 3000, Think Ice, Astro Barrier, Ice Fishing, Bean Counters and Hydro Hopper (phew!) will all be getting their inner-workings looked at to have their music fixed once and for all. Having said that, let's view the rest of the information Meggbot provided us with:

Hi Penguins!

Many of you have been asking when the music in our mini-games will be fixed, and have I got some great news for YOU!

Over the next few months we'll be fixing the missing music to your favorite mini-games! Unfortunately these fixes aren't easy, so we're only able to do one at a time -- but soon you'll be able to enjoy sound in mini-games once again! :D

Here's a list of the mini-games and the dates we hope to have the music fixed! Keep in mind these dates might be subject to change -- we'll keep you updated!

 * Card-Jitsu Water – October 21

 * Catchin’ Waves – October 28

 * Cart Surfer – November 4

 * Pizzatron 3000 – November 10 (Tuesday updates due to Canadian Holiday)

 * Thin Ice – November 18

 * Astro Barrier – November 25

 * Ice Fishing – December 2

Speaking of mini-games... which one is your favorite and why? LEt us knOW in the coMMents!

Waddle ON,

-ClUb PEngEin TEam

As you can see, there was a slight malfunction at the end of the post... I hope Meggbot doesn't bug out like the rest of the Club Penguin MascBots! I can't wait to see these game updates, looks like the team are finally addressing some bugs after so long. Good work, guys!

Blog: CP Time Warp #8: Extreme Penguin Lives!

Hello everyone, the newest Club Penguin Time Warp has been posted. The current post is #8. It's called extreme penguin lives.

One of our artists really developed the character of Extreme Penguin. Here are some early notes and drawings.

What do you think?

Blog: CP Time Warp #7: Game! Dance Contest

The 7th Club Penguin Time Warp is all about the early ideas and rough sketches for DJ Cadence's Dance Contest.

Dance Contest! Here are some early notes and rough sketches of what the Dance Game started out like. It was released January 2009.

PS. The team was SO excited to finally get DJ Cadence on the island so penguins could meet her. That happened in February, 2011. Here's an early description her:

"Passionate singer, epic choreographer... DJ Cadence loves to express herself and be the center of attention, taking the party wherever she goes."

Have you ever met Cadence online?

Blog: CP Time Warp #6: Camping Party Brainstorm

The 6th Club Penguin Time Warp has been posted on the blog. Today it's all about the Camp Penguin party that took place on 2007. Read it below.

Blog: CP Time Warp #5: What if We Could Have Puffles in Games?

CP Time Warp 5 has been posted on the What's New blog by Meggbot, and it's all about featuring puffles in Club Penguin games.

So many ideas are first concepted on paper in brainstorm meetings. It's really awesome to go back on some of these drawings now! Early on the team thought it would be amazing if penguins could take puffles into games.

Do you take your pet puffles into games to help you or earn extra coins?

Blog: CP Time Warp #4: Puffle Furniture Exploration

The 4th Club Penguin Time Warp posted by Meggbot is all about a puffle furniture exploration.

Thankfully, right off the top, our team wanted to make sure that pet puffles would have their own furniture.

Here are some really, really early sketches (and a few notes) on puffle furniture! Do you own any puffle furniture? What's your favorite?

Blog: CP Time Warp #3 Game! DJ3K

Before starting this post, I just want to say a quick apology for the lack of posts this week, I've missed a few days leading to inactivity, my normal schedule will resume from here on.

Meggbot has posted the third CP Time Warp on the Club Penguin blog, today's is on the DJ3K game.

The first concepts of the DJ3K game included thoughts of Gary mixing tracks! Here are some really early drawings and ideas the team had about the game.

Blog: CP Time Warp #2—The Stage! Twelfth Fish

Bzzt bzzt! New blog post from Meggbot on the Club Penguin blog. It's the second CP Time Warp. This time we take a look at old scribbles from the Twelfth Fish, an old play that used to take place at the Stage before it closed down.

Hi Penguins,

From the paper archives, here are some sketches from one of the early Stage plays (December 2007) — the Twelfth Fish!

Although Rookie edited the play in January 2012, the original lines included parodies of a variety of Shakespeare plays including, "To fish or not to fish, that is the question!"
