The Penguin Games have started! To start playing, click on the medal in the upper right.
The first race is the Marathon at the Ski Village. Start behind the starting line and wait for the countdown before you start racing. Then move along the track and STOP at every light and MAKE IT LIGHT UP.
If you miss one light, you’ll have to go back and get it or you won’t finish. The Marathon goes through several rooms: Ski Village>Beach>Dock>Town>Snow Forts>Plaza>Forest>Cove. Go past the finish line as far as I did in the picture once you’ve gotten all the lights.
The next race is the Three Lap Race at the Iceberg. It is the same idea: you have to hit all the lights. Sometimes the lights might not work very well, but they do work. Remember, you have to around the track THREE TIMES.
The last race is the Freestyle Swim at the Underground Pool. You must swim FIVE lengths of the Pool. Make sure you make the 2 lights go off EACH time you hit the end of the Pool.
The event display should automatically open when you have finished all 3 events. When it does, select Claim Prize.
Yay! You now have the Gold Medal!
Other Penguin Games News

Members will be able to compete at the new soccer pitch at the Ice Rink.
Also, here’s a sneak peek of the Games tomorrow. It’s the Moose and Mullet in the Lodge, and they’re both wearing red/blue face paint. Perhaps the return of those 2 items?
A new, and perhaps important, Penguin Poll will be posted on Club Penguin tomorrow. I’ll give you all the info on that when it arrives.
Lastly, don’t forget to check out this week’s Penguin Times newspaper. There’s a pretty good article on Igloo-building there (which reminded me of strategies for my own igloo when I was a member. Pic here, and a cool In Focus: A Waddle Down Memory Lane.
Yay! BLUE TEAM has won the contest! Thanks everyone for voting in the poll. Blue team won by an enormous amount of votes. So I’d like to officially say that Fever will be routing for the BLUE TEAM for the Penguin Games, which starts tomorrow! Can’t wait!
Hey everyone!
The site went down around yesterday in the late evening. It was suspended because I had links to my CP Toolbar in my Cheats & Glitches and a couple of my old posts (which are now deleted). The toolbar was in violation of the WordPress rules because it was causing problems with some peoples computers. I am 85% sure that the problem was not the actual toolbar, but the Message and Chat features on the toolbar (which allowed people to message everyone who was using my toolbar). People were sending everyone messages telling them to “Go to these links”, which had malicious files and viruses in them.
For those of you who still have the toolbar in use right now, don’t worry! Once I heard about the problem, I immediately changed the layout of the toolbar entirely. Message, Chat, and Secret Chat features have been permanently removed. A direct subscription to CP’s Blog and my blog have been added, with new colors and pictures. Links have been updated, a weather button has been added, and an email notifier has been attached. You should have noticed this as soon as you opened your web browser, because it updates immediately. If you still feel it is unsafe, feel free to uninstall it.
The new toolbar is only available to those who downloaded it already. I will not provide links to it. Now the site is back up and everything is hopefully back to normal! 
Update: WordPress has told me to tell those with the toolbar to uninstall it.
Waddle on! Penguin Games tomorrow!
The Dodgeball pin is located on the right balcony of the Stage.

First off, the Band is on break again. Which means if you’re a member, you can get go Backstage for a free autographed background! Here’s how to get Backstage and how to meet the Band.
Next, we finally know what game the level update is gonna be on. Aqua Grabber! On August 5th, the vessel will be grabbing many valuable gems other than pearls and venturing far deeper under the surface to face many new, unfriendly sea creatures. New divers are also needed to clean up an accidental cream soda spill.
Team Blue’s Rally will be back at the Stage on August 8th. This time, they’ll be facing Team Red!
The ‘Best Ways to Earn Coins’ Tip in the newspaper is by Happy77, who was/is a CP Mod. He says Puffle Round-Up is the best money maker. I don’t think that’s true though.
Finally, here are the answers to G’s Word Search in the newspaper. All the words are inventions of Gary’s.
The Clothing Catalog comes out this Friday. Here’s a sneak peek. It looks like a rubber-band bracelet, and checkered shoes/shirts/flags/cars for a Racing theme.

Also, I have just updated the History of CP. So take a look if you want!
The Club Penguin Band has been taking a break from the stage at the Iceberg. They’ve been hanging out Backstage (in the VIP section of the Dock) giving out a new background, like Rockhopper! Each member will be on a random, different server Backstage. Good luck searching! I suggest looking through the populated servers first. Click on the buddy button to get the autographed background.
Here’s what the background looks like. Unfortunately, it’s members only.
