Party Review - Pirate Party 2014



Hey guys, Storm here. Today I have another party review. Today I am recapping a party from November 2014. Is this party as good or bad as everybody says it is?
I love pirates, so I was pretty excited when I heard the Pirate Party was returning from 2008, I was pretty excited. The only thing that could make Club Penguin better was a permanent train station with running trains that you could ride and possibly drive like at the Holiday Party 2013. When it came, it was pretty fun, but it got old after a couple days; and by that I mean by day 2 I was sick of it to the farthest extent. The decorations were bland and there was too much sand. I still have no idea how the ocean got to the snow forts and back into position within 2 weeks, but I know that probably won't be answered ever in history. Doing the same task over and over again didn't help the case. The forest needed some white because scenes only look good if there is an even balance of light and dark to set the mood. Raiders of the Lost Ark and The LEGO Movie do this very well, but with the colors of the room, I had no idea what the mood was. I am also kinda sad that the Migrator crashed. I also see hints of a flying Migrator in the newspaper. Rockhopper has to be like the worst pirate ever to need 3 ships in less than 10 years. Also, flying pirate ships? Been there, done that. The beach and dock were way too overcrowded with items, and it was confusing with those X marks all over the place where the chests would later be. It was really easy to defeat the crabs, but I did like the idea of climbing up the pet shop and pizza parlor and hotel and other buildings.
The boss battle was too boring and pointless. We waited 6 days after the party started to defeat something virtually the same as all the other battles, but with a bigger crab.
This Party was actually not very entertaining. I really can't say much. Nothing much on Rockhopper, nothing on the ski village because it WASNT DECORATED for no logical reason other than the Club Penguin team is the laziest team ever. I mean really, why  do they never decorate it?
This is really all I can say about this party because there is nothing to this party. No story, and no plot twists because there's no plot.
There is also no new characters like there is in almost every other party nowadays. Really, I can prove it.
Prehistoric: Garugg the Ugg Ugg
Muppets: Kermit
Future Party: Gary 3000
Music Jam: Cole Plante, Zendaya, Violletta, Sabrina Carpenter
Frozen: Elsa, destroyer of earth, Anna, the hobo with no brain, and Olaf the self-impaling moron
Halloween: Skip the Bellhop
Merry Walrus: Merry Walrus

This is really all I have to say.

The Igloo Looks.... Different

The Igloo Looks.... Different. It's pretty obvious. The igloo has a new layout. Here's all that has changed.

-New Blue Layout. The red layout was kinda boring. 
-2 Sidebars instead of the 1, so you don't have to scroll down all the way for a specific tool or poll or maybe even blog link.
-Some pages are missing. The Club Penguin Cheats pages have been removed and the Memes page has been temporarily hidden for renovations.
-New Header - The old header has been around since Spring 2013, and I decided it was time for a new one. I really like this one with the random touch of the Modern Art furniture item.
-New Page - Custom Scenes and Penguins - Here you can check out my work with custom art for penguins and other game characters alike. Here I post artwork made in 3 styles made every week. You can place a request in the comments if you want, and if you don't, well, that's okay.
-Toolbar Label Different - The ''Home" Tab is renamed to Homepage just because I feel like it, okay?

I hope you like the new design! Check out the Custom Art page! 

By the way, this doesn't count as a regular post. That's why I'm not gonna sign on or off or anything, I'm just gonna say bye. 

Bye!

Club Penguin Party Review - Merry Walrus Party 2014

Is this party really better than everybody says it is?
I actually really like this party. it has a nice story. (most parties don't even have a story) I really like the fact that you can meet a new mascot that we haven't seen before. Merry Walrus seems pretty nice. Another nice thing about this party is the jetsleigh at the Snow Forts. It's nice to see how it fills up as we donate as a community more and more coins. Another nice thing about this party is the map. The team has finally decided that we are not too stupid to have to see every single party room on the map. I also like the fact that the Coffee Shop is decorated. While it would have been nice if the Ski Lodge and Lodge Attic from 2009 would make a return along with the Pizza Parlor of Holidays of 2012, the team works hard with some of this stuff. They are trying their best even though they are lazy hobos. A great thing about this party that I haven't told you about is the quests. Club Penguin finally figured out that we can figure stuff out on our own and do tasks instead of just logging in and grabbing the free items on a page from the top right corner. This party also has great free items (even though the First Merry Walrus hat is hideous). The Crystal Puffle Earmuffs and the Festive Fluffy are really cool items, and they aren't even members only items!

 Now let's go through the cons:
No Cove, Ski Lodge, Attic, Pizza Parlor, or Gift Shop Decorations
No Party Catalog
Quest ends after 4 days
No new igloo, even if it is a green version of that igloo from the 2012 daily gifts.
The penguins on Twitter have started a very stupid and pointless #SAYVDECUMPAYGINN act

There really isn't anything more than this that I can think of.

So how fun is this party? Pretty fun, actually. I really can't find anything bad to say about this party other than the things above. What I am really mad about is the #SaveTheClubPenguin act in the Twitter community. It isn't necessary. As Chillin says, this party is MILES AND MILES ahead of any of the finding identical snowflakes in obvious places and the click on 10 pumpkins so you feel like you accomplished anything and the do the same swordfight every day for 9 days that we have had in the past.


Also, now that I have done this review and I love doing reviews on this stuff, I will review all the parties that I have ever been to (all the parties since September 2011 excluding Fair and Halloween 2011) along with all the mini-parties that happened this year.

Until next time, this is Storm signing off.
