+ Information: Operation Blackout!

Hello everyone! As you may know, there is going to be a new event in Club Penguin very soon, named "Operation Blackout" ( I call it OP for short ), and I'm going to talk about it in this post. At the beginning, I thought that OP was going to happen simultaneously with the Halloween Party, but it didn't. Now, Club Penguin has announced that it will begin in November 15. But what is Operation Blackout going to be? Well, there are 2 speculations: some say it will be a "party", others say it will be a new Mission, but I think it will be both; just like when the PSA Headquarter's was destroyed by Herbert back in 2010. Now, Herbert is planning to darken the Island by taking over the Sunlight. One of the many facts that support this idea is that, since some weeks ago, there have been weird questions going on in the Club Penguin Times Newspaper. One example is the question made by "Hubert P. Enguin", that says: "Dear Gary, in theory, how would you build a high frequency infrared reversion laser?" So yes, Hubert P. Enguin is Herbert P. Beat Esquire, and what he wants to know is how to block sunlight from reaching the Island. And unfortunately, Gary replied, saying that he had already invented a Machine capable to do such thing: the "Photon Wavelenght Inverter" According to G, he still keeps that invention in his lab...

2 days ago, Club Penguin released a new ( and awesome ) video that shows us more about Operation Blackout. Here it is if you haven't seen it yet:

Incredibly awesome, right? It seems that Herbert will break into Gary's lab, and then capture him. But there's something else that is also important: at second 0:25 we can see G trapped in a blue container... but there are 6 containers in total! Does that means that Herbert is planning to capture other 5 penguins?? And I think tha t the Laser - Machine that appears at the end of the video is the Photon Wavelenght Inverter I just talked about in this same post. Also, the video shows that the Everyday Phoning Facility will be destroyed! That would make it the 2nd time Herbert succeeds destroying our HQ. But, what is that luxury - house that shows up in the video? Very easy to guess: it's Herbert's Fortress, and as we can see in the video, it's located in a Mountain above the Everyday Phoning Facility ( look at second 0:17, where the agents are climbing something, and under them are the remains of the EPF building ) As many penguin -  agents know, Herbert P. Bear always hides somewhere in the Island, where he plans what to do next; but he is constantly changing his hide - place. He has hidden behind the Ski Hill, near the Mine, and more. 

( The image up here belongs to my friend Icequix ) But now that we know what Herbert is going to do, what can WE do in order to beat him again? What we already know is that we will have to enter Herbert's liar to stop him, but there might be something else. You know, there have been rumors about a Snow Trekker that is able to travel through time. It could be seen in the Telescope during the Halloween Party, and it might be a Sneak Peek of something that's coming soon-- just like the Purple Meteor we could see through the same telescope just before the Marvel's superhero Party began. What do you think? I have decided to make a list of the things that, according to what you just read, have a very big chance to occur during the next weeks. Here it is:

- Herbert will capture Gary and other EPF Agents.
- The Everyday Phoning Facility will be destroyed.
- There is going to be a Blackout ( obviously, haha )
- We will discover Herbert's newest hideplace.
- There might be a chance for us to travel in time.

What do you think about all this? I'm really excited for Operation Blackout to start! It seems that it will be AWESOME. Please send me a comment with your opinion, or any doubt you have about OP, and I will be very glad to answer you. One more thing: If Herbert wants to be warm, why does he wants to block sunlight? Wouldn't that make the Island colder? It's quite confusing... but well, thanks for reading and see you later in Club Penguin Island! :D

NOTE: If you didn't knew, PSA stands for Penguin Secret Agency, and Herbert P. Bear Esquire is Herbert's full name.

UPDATE ( 25 / 11 / 12 )

Hello, everyone. I am really sorry for not posting more about this operation since it started. I am not very good at posting too much... sorry again. But well, I am here with this message to tell you that, once you complete the last challenge ( Chapter 6 of the EPF Guide ), a video will show up. And I have to say that the video is incredibly awesome and quite emotional. It shows how Club Penguin gets saved, and it also reveals who the Director really is. And though my thinking about the Director's Secret Identity was correct, I didn't expected that CP would let us know that during this event. Once the video ends, sunlight will start appearing in the Island again-- it's turning back to normality. 

For me, Operation Blackout is the most awesome and shocking event that has ever happened in Club Penguin Island.

Medieval Party 2012 Walkthrough!

Hello everyone! Guess what? Yesterday, Club Penguin launched the Medieval Party 2012! Yeah! It's finally here, and now we are able to explore brand - new rooms all around the Island. As I said on a post before, the Medieval Party has a fourth challenge. But it isn't a Medieval Quest: it's located at a dark mountain- it's Scorn, the Dragon King! Members can now defeat Scorn, a very ancient dragon that lives nearby the Ski Hill. But there are really many other features in this party: we will talk about all of them in this post. To begin, I would like to say something really important: during this party, Gary the Gadget Guy will be visiting the Island, so keep an eye on the servers! You can get he's new Background for free once you meet him. Also, there is a new item in the special Market Catalog: the Thunder Sword! if you are a member, you can collect 3 items in order to enter Scorn's Mountain. Once you are in there, you will battle with the Dragon King, Scorn. If you win, a secret room will be revealed and you will receive some coins as reward. If you need more help doing this, here my the entire Walkthrough for completing this challenge:

3 Items - 2 Warriors - 1 Land
Medieval Quest 

This challenge is quite difficult for those who are new at Club Penguin and for those who haven't completed any of the 3 Medieval Quests that are located underground. To begin, click in the paper roll that is located at the right - up side of your screen. There you will see 3 blank spaces and a medieval - style map of Club Penguin. Now, you will have to recollect 3 items: the Fairy Branch, Spheres of Starlight, and Cursed Stones. You will find all of these items in 3 different places of the Island: The Dock, the Beach and the Ski Village. I recommend you to travel through the Island in that order, so it's easier for you to find all 3 items. As you walk, you will notice something: there are Flags everywhere, many of them have Scorn's face on them. This means that you are heading right to its liar. And don't worry, we are heading right there. Once you find all three items, you will ask you: why do we need all these random things? Well, you will discover that further: you will use it to defeat the Dragon King. Also, you will notice that there have been many changes in the rooms than the last year. For example, in the Dock, penguins are smaller ( but if you click on an emoticon, it will appear as its normal size ) In the Beach, there is like a giant laboratory. But there is a place that calls my attention the most: the Ski Village.

Why? Well, maybe because it seems so abandoned. In the Medieval Party legend, it says that the entire Island was conquered by Scorn, the Dragon King, but it seems that the only place devastated was the Ski Village. It is really different from the other rooms, as you can see, and it is kinda mysterious... There are statues of penguins, and curiously, they seem very real and they look like if they are trying to protect theirselves from something. Also, the background seems to be made of crystal, don't you think? Well, here you can find the last item you need to recolect. When you get it, climb the stairs to the Ski Hill. Once you are in the top of it, you can see that there seems to be a pool made of lava! You can get a Free Item there. And when you are ready ( and if you are a member ) you can enter the Brown door  that is located at the right - up side of the screen and prepare to defeat Scorn. First, you will have to pass through a very dangerous bridge ( you can get another free item in here ) and once you pass it, you will fight.

Before, Now, and After 

The Dragon King

Though it seems difficult, it's quite easy to defeat the Dragon King. Your weapon against Scorn is made of the 3 items you already recollected, that throws the cursed rocks ( with the fairy branch ) at the Spheres of Starlight; in order to harm the dragon king. You won't have to click to shoot the rocks, you just need to aim at the Spheres that appear in the Screen. Can you see Scorn's healthy meter at the upper side of it? You can reduce it by destroying the spheres, but you can gain more points by shooting more than 1 sphere at a time. As time passes, more and more spheres will appear, but Scorn will start threating you: it will began to break the cliff you're in. If you don't destroy Scorn soon, it will finish you by breaking all the cliff and you'll fall. That's why you need to destroy the spheres fast. If you win, you will get coins as prize. But that's not everything: the Sky Kingdom will appear and you will be able to visit it. In there, you can find a free item. You will need it to enter the castle ( it's not a different room, you will only clim upstairs to the balcony ) But there is a secret: there are 5 color gems above the balcony, and there are 5 color gems in different parts of the room of the same colors. For each penguin that climbs to the balcony, a color gem will be unlocked, and a secret feature in the room will be revealed. When there are more than 5 penguins in the balcony, the room will be completely changed, and it will look awesome.

If you didn't knew, you won't need to cross all the mountain to enter the Air Kingdom again once you log off. The only thing you need to do is to wear the free item you used to enter the Castle, and stand in the end of some yellow stairs at the Town ( at the left - down side of the screen ) The tree will grow and you will be able to climb on it. But remember, you will only be able to do this if you wear the free item. If not, the tree won't grow. Also, you can help other penguins ( even nonmembers ) to enter the Air Kingdom by standing there ( using the item ) while they climb. In my opinion, this is a really good and awesome party. I think it's the best Medieval Party Club Penguin has ever had! Don't forget to visit the "Medieval Quests #1, #2 and #3" underground. The Medieval Quest #1 is now available for everyone. Click here to see the Walkthrough to pass the Medieval Quest #3! And finally, here is a list of the rooms I recommend you to visit the most:

- Town
- Lighthouse
- Ski Village
- Ski Hill ( Free Item & Field Ops )
- Mine Cave ( Medieval Quests #1, #2 and #3 )
- Air Kingdom
- Scorn's Liar
- Stage ( New Play! )
- Boiler Room ( Pin )

But before ending this post, I would like to announce something. As many of you have already heard, Club Penguin is already organizing its first Superhero Party ever next month, in June. But it isn't any Superhero Party... it is MARVEL's Takeover Superhero party!!! Yeah! Everyone is so excited for this party! If you didn't knew, MARVEL ( a company that creates fictional Superheroes ) was bought by Disney some months ago, so that's why maybe Club Penguin is launching this party. There will be costumes of our favorite superheroes like Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, and more! But there are rumors that there will also be Villain's costumes, like Loki, Hydra, etc. I think the Island will be transformed into a type of city, and we will be able to save or destroy it ( I prefer to save it XD ) I am really interested in this party. What about you? Do you like MARVEL? Are you excited for this party? Please feel free to drop a comment with your opinions below! I will be really glad to answer you back. Thanks for reading and see you later in Club Penguin Island! :D

UPDATE: The Curse has been broken! Club Penguin will be completely back to normal in May 29.
