Club Penguin Island Meet-Up Disaster
Going against all previous promises made, the team has hosted a meet-up on the same day as update day. What’s worse is that they did it on the old update, meaning that all the players who updated to version 1.2.1 (including myself) could not attend the meet-up.
Basically this tweet was absolutely false.

Update: People online (also myself) have calmed down. Yeah, it’s disappointing and I still believe communication in the team needs to improve. But it’s a mistake I think/hope they will learn from (even if it’s the second time). Originally I called it a “disgrace” and I kinda stand by that name, since people did lose trust in the team, but not everyone did.
The fact that they cannot even get communication right has made me drop my review of 7 out of 10 to:
6/10
People are angry and frustrated that the team can’t sort out communication to even get a party on the right version.
Above are the people waiting for the meet-up which they can’t attend since they updated the app. The reason I’m lowering my rating to 6 isn’t because of the fact it’s a meet-up.
They’ve given false information, disappointed players but above all, they’ve not sorted out communication. Imagine this for something worse. I hope the team realises that this needs to change soon.

That is really disappointing. My parents have spent good money to enable me to play. CP are not being fair. We should get a refund.

That’s a bit extreme…

I missed it tbh, i had to eat. Then when i launched the app (somewhere about 14 minutes later), and i tried to open the phone, it crashed. I tried that 3 times, and this wasted me 6 more minutes. Then i updated the app and tried to launch it, and it crashed again when trying to open the phone. Then i got mad, deleted the game data, and launch it again. Sing in and finally open the phone. It got me 10 more minutes, and i totaly missed the meet-up. So the app really needs some fix soon.

Oh. Hopefully the update fixes these problems.

You mean dinner? Because for you guys that aren’t home-schooled like me breakfast is before school in a hurry, and lunch is just a quick recess

I don’t have breakfast in a hurry and I even have time to play during lunch…
