Mare’s Surprise “Coup”

Edu14463 released a statement announcing Mare’s removal from the administration. He alleged that she had planned a coup against both Coolguy and himself. The announcement caught many in the community off guard and quickly stirred controversy across several chats. As discussions unfolded, Coolguy and Edu faced a wave of criticism regarding the decision. Shortly after the statement, Coolguy appointed Superhero123 as the newest Chief Executive Producer, adding to the speculation surrounding the leadership changes.

Doritos “Coup” Aisha

The Doritos of Club Penguin made a surprising announcement, removing Aisha from her leadership position. They cited her failure to uphold the army’s values and described her behavior as increasingly negative and unfriendly. Consequently, the DCP Legends Council voted to dismiss her from her role. To reinforce the decision, 32op instructed troops not to contact Aisha further. Although this announcement initially shocked the community, it soon became clear that it was a coordinated April Fools’ prank.

Templars Merge into Walter’s Lab

Templar’s leader, Moon, announced that the army would shut down effective immediately, ceasing all operations and merging with “Walter White and Jesse Pinkman’s Lab.” The abrupt decision came with significant leadership changes, including the removal of Echo and BillyBob from their roles.

Moon appointed Elsa, Zez, and Kingsman as the new Head Cooks of Walter’s Lab, signaling a complete rebranding of the former army structure. Many of these leaders were seen cosplaying several characters of the popular drama TV series ‘Breaking Bad’. In the announcement, Moon cited “inappropriate and unethical conduct” as the reason for the removals, alleging that Echo and BillyBob had refused to participate in operations, becoming “a roadblock” to the army’s progression.

Help Force’s disguise

Help Force saw a complete revamp of their server, completely changing the theme and identity to the Rebel Penguin Federation. The Rebels’ leaders were hoisted at the top of the member list, making the cover-up very believable.

The Helpers’ leader, Beasto, also declared war on the Army of Club Penguin, marking the beginning of a new confrontation. The Help Force and the Army of Club Penguin are known for their friendly wars throughout history, although this was quickly revealed to be part of their April Fools prank.

Judges VS Club Penguin Armies

CPA Judge Spotty declared war against the Club Penguin Armies administration. According to the statement, the Club Penguin Army Judges expressed frustration over what they described as continuous and unreasonable demands, such as frequent map updates. The judges further alleged that the CPA administration has demonstrated bias and mismanagement in overseeing league operations. As a result of these ongoing concerns, the CPAJ declared its separation from CPA and the formation of its own initiative.

In addition, the judges expressed frustration with their supposed “partners,” claiming they had been speaking negatively about CPAJ behind closed doors—behavior they deemed unacceptable. CPAJ stated that both their organization and the wider community deserve better.

Effective immediately, CPAJ announced that it will no longer function solely as a judging organization. Instead, they are rebranding into a fully operational army and have called on the community to support this new direction.


Aliens Declares War against RPF

On April 1, the Aliens declared war on the Rebel Penguin Federation under the title “Operation Amour.” In a post published on their website, the Aliens humorously claimed the cause of the war was due to the Rebel Penguin Federation leadership being “too tall,” embracing the spirit of April Fools’ Day with a satirical twist. The declaration, while lighthearted in tone, continued the day’s trend of pranks and playful rivalries across the community.
