September 2009
There's no doubt - costumes are always a hot
topic around here! The Halloween edition of the Penguin Style catalog
comes out this Friday and it's gonna be stuffed full of costumes. Make
sure to get to the Gift Shop early so you and your buddies have lots of
time to get ready for the Halloween party at the end of October.
And speaking of costumes, can you help us out with one? In November we're presenting a brand new play at the Stage - and one of the characters is a Gnome! It'd be cool if you could help decide what his outfit should look like. Click beside your first choice.

Hello Penguins!
It's almost time! The catalog that you guys wait for all year will FINALLY be at the Gift Shop on Friday! And the Halloween costumes in this year's edition...well, let's just say I've seen 'em and I'm pretty sure you'll think they're cool! I don't want to give too much away, but I did get this for you guys to check out:
What do you think? Can you see yourself pulling off some tricks or treats in that? Most of the costumes will only be around in this month's catalog - so get your favorites early!!
Until then...Waddle on!

Hello Penguins!
You guys are definitely making the Ninja Hideout a busy place! It's cool watching the giant wheel turn when someone uses their Cloud Wave Bracers.... and seeing all the items collected from the scavenger hunt being moved:
Doesn't it make you wonder what Sensei's doing with all that stuff? Don't forget that Sept. 27 is the final day of the scavenger hunt (and some of the clues are tricky!) so if you want to help collect fiery items, you should get started!
Good luck, and Waddle on!

Hello Penguins!
Last week, lots of you told us about your favorite Card-Jitsu Power Card. Here's one from Hnwjanuary11 that we liked:
Wow, I love all of the Card-Jitsu cards, it's so hard to choose a favorite! If I had to pick, I'd go with the Keeper of the Boiler Room card! It's so funny to use it during a match and watch our opponent fall down the speaker! It's also cute to see the little green puffle become part of the action! I love it so much! Waddle on!
Thanks, Hnwjanuary11! We loved hearing about all your favorite Power Cards. As always, if there's a Card-Jitsu card that you've always wanted to see, let us know!
For this week's Reviewed By You, we're looking ahead to October and one of the biggest parties that hits the island every single year. We wanna know what Club Penguin Halloween costume has stuck in your mind as the ultimate!!

Greetings Penguins!
So...there's a whole bunch of buzz about the smoke that's been spotted and I've been kinda curious. I managed to sit down with someone on the team who helps with the island map. And here's what he had to say about the whole thing:
Q: Is this smoke we're seeing coming from a volcano? Or is it a mountain?
A: At first I thought it might be the Tallest Mountain, but it can't be. After all, there are taller mountains surrounding the one that's smoking. And when you think about it, it must be a volcano! Most of the mountains on Club Penguin have snow on the top of them, but that mountain has never had any snow on it.
Q: Does this have anything to do with the ninja stuff that's happening?
A: Well I can't give away all our secrets, but I've noticed that the ninjas in Club Penguin have been very active lately!
Q: Um...Haven't you noticed that there's no TREAT shop on the map?
A: I suppose there are no treat shops, but if you ever need to satisfy your sweet tooth go to the kitchen at the Pizza Parlor and turn the big red lever on the Pizzatron 3000!
Not sure that my curiosity's been satisfied...but at least we know it's a volcano. And even though nobody's willing to confirm it, I still wonder if all these mysterious things are related. Let me know if you hear anything else.
In Other News: We're working on organizing the blog a bit - You might notice today that you'll only be able see the last three months of What's New posts.
Until then...Waddle on!
-Club Penguin TeamHello Penguins!
Have you seen it? Hmmm... Lots of mysterious things going on around the island right now!!
Keep your eyes open for more clues about exciting things to come. And speaking of clues, the scavenger hunt's been extended until Sept. 28, so there's a bit more time to help Sensei! Good luck.
In other news: The new igloo furniture catalog was released and the green Puffle Bean Bag (the chair you decided on) is there! Let me know how it looks in your igloo.
Until then...Waddle on!

There's lots happening all over the island - like Sensei's scavenger hunt, and more on the way for ninjas (your guesses all week were really cool, by the way). There's even ninja stuff happening OFF the island!! Check out this new Sensei penguin toy:
We've heard that some of you've had a hard time finding the toys, so we're excited to let you know they're available in more places now - like Target in the US - hopefully they'll be easier to spot now! Be sure to let us know.
Card-Jitsu Trading Cards Series 2 are in stores now too, and the team's always working on new stuff, so if you have ideas for trading cards, we'd love to know what you'd like to see!
Until then...Waddle on!
-Club Penguin Team
You've still got time to help Sensei find fiery stuff. If you haven't yet, check out the scavenger hunt! I've gotta admit I got a bit stuck with the "grumpy puffle" clue - thankfully tons of penguins were really great at helping with some extra hints...
Let us know how you're doing with the scavenger hunt - and tell us about any other cool stuff you and your buddies are doing on the island right now!
Until then...Waddle on.

Last week we asked you for all the best things about being a ninja and we heard from lots of you. Here's what Cena12121 said:
There is so many wonderful things about being a ninja. Including - wearing ninja customes, buying the Dojo igloo, having access to the secret Ninja Hideout, and much more. But my favorite part is having ninja powers, like disapearing and making vanishing clouds. It is different than anyother thing in Club Penguin! I hope the Sensei will teach us more ninja moves in the future.
Agreed - Very cool to be a ninja. This week, we'd love to hear about which is your favorite Card-Jitsu Power Card. Here are a couple from the online game:

We'd love to know what you think is going on with that...
In other news: I heard that Sensei's here and there's a Scavenger Hunt - have you been collecting fiery items? Let us know!

There's something brand new coming out on the island and we're thinking it's gonna be BIG!! I don't want to say too much and give away any surprises...but I can show you this:
That doesn't give too much away, right? What do you think? Can't wait to hear your ideas.
Until then...Waddle on!

It's the last day of 101 Days of Fun and today we'd love to hear from you about the creative adventures that you and your buddies do all the time all over the island - What's one activity that you think other penguins around the island would enjoy doing as well?
Even though the 101 days are done, we got such great feedback with the offline activities that the team's working to keep 'em coming!! We're going to be updating that part of the website and we'll have more offline activities really soon.
In Other News: Make sure you earn tickets & collect as many prizes as you can because The Fair party's done Sept. 13! I gotta get myself a moustache...and quick!Until then...Waddle on!

In other news: The Prize Booths at The Fair have been updated with an item or two. Make sure you check them out before the party finishes on Sunday night. We wouldn't want you to miss anything before The Fair packs up!
Until then... Waddle on!

Last week we asked you about your plans for The Fair. We thought Fruithill was pretty creative:
My plan for the fair is:
1. Play fair games and use points to get the brilliant prizes,
2. Play my tuba at the lighthouse wearing purple,
3. Go to all the parties that I can,
4. Chat with my friends using emotes only,
5. THINK HOW GREAT CLUB PENGUIN IS!
And if I can manage I'm going to hold the best dance contest ever!
Even if you're not doing exactly what Fruithill's doing (like being in the Lighthouse wearing purple and playing a tuba!), we hope you're having a blast earning tickets and getting prizes. The Fair will end on Sept. 13, but there's never a shortage of cool things coming up. This week we want to know all the best things about being a ninja! Use the comment form to write your answer. We'll post one (50 - 75 words please) in next week's Reviewed By You blog. And if your comment is posted, we'll add 10,000 coins to your penguin account.

The Fair's only going to be here for a few more days.... Here's a list of some of the cool stuff at the party, so see if you can find all of them. Good luck!
- 5 penguins, including one with huge muscles
- 3 saddles in one room
- A popcorn stand
- A caramel apple
- A place to scoop out cotton candy
- Over 300 balls in one room
- A wall of cactus
- A spinning blue puffle
- A spinning green puffle
- A room that has only a single color of balloons (any other room with balloons has them in more than one color)
- The Great Puffle Circus
OK...I admit, the last one's pretty easy, but the Puffle Circus was too cool not to mention. I hope you're able to find all of the stuff on the list! See you later!
-Club Penguin Team
You guys must be playing lots of party games and winning a lot of tickets, because the prize booth has been really busy! Have you noticed a few empty spaces on the shelves? Keep your eyes open because we'll be adding new prizes at the end of the week. And you'll still be able to get the ones that are there now!
Until then...Waddle on!
-Club Penguin Team
What do you think of the party? There are lots of mini-games to play, prizes to win, Rockhopper's here, and puffles have even started a circus in the member area!
We want to hear what you and your friends are doing and what your favorites are. But don't forget that tickets from the mini-games can't be saved after you leave, so before you log off, you should redeem the tickets you've earned at the prize booth.Until then...Waddle on!

Rockhopper's Migrator finally FINALLY lands tomorrow (it feels like we've been waiting forever)! Here's what Joy55 said last week about the best thing Rockhopper's ever brought to Club Penguin:
The best thing Rockhopper has ever brought was the very first potted plant. We didn't know what to think of it at first, then the plant started sprouting! Everyone was so amazed! I can't wait to see what Rockhopper brings this time! Rock on, Club Penguin.
From the looks of the Migrator, he's bringing very cool stuff this time, too. And I've heard that the Coffee Shop will be FULL of treats!
For this week's Reviewed By You, we'd love to know the ways that you're going to make your own fabulous Fair shows around the island. From puffle tricks to gymnasts, last year we saw performances of all kinds. What are you, your friends, and your puffles planning for the Fair?
Until then...Waddle on!

Remember - so many of you vote every time we do this that we've had to shut off the comments. That's not because we don't want to hear from you...it's so you won't have to wait to let us know which one you like best. We're still working on a way to fix this once and for all.
Comments will be back on tomorrow. But for now, make sure to let us know which background you want for the Halloween edition of Penguin Style! Results will be on the blog soon!
Until then...Waddle on!

Rockhopper's getting closer so keep checking the telescope this week to spot the Migrator. Looks like Rockhopper's going to be here for The Fair!
The team loves it when Rockhopper's here because there's always buzz all over the island about meeting him, checking out his catalog, and playing the Treasure Hunt game he brings. Have you played? It's inside the Migrator's Captain's Quarters and you can search for treasure with a buddy. I always try to get the rare emerald. Let me know if you've ever found one.
Until then...Waddle on!
