CP Rewritten: Submarine Party Likely to Occur Next
The current plan for the next party on Club Penguin Rewritten has been revealed: it’s expected to be the Submarine Party! This is a fairly small party which occurred in 2008 on the classic game, but it had some lovely decorations related to water and the sea.
Town during the Submarine Party on classic Club Penguin [2008] The news was revealed earlier by the team in response to a question, and subsequent to the comment shown below, stu clarified that he was referring to the Submarine Party.
Probably not Operation Swarm for the first [party] – maybe that one party that people were wanting. It looks like an ocean, [but] I forgot what it’s called.
Submarine Party – yes.
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administratorI know that this is a popular question, so I should just say that I don’t have any additional information about when Club Penguin Rewritten will be back yet – sorry!
Waddle on!

CP Rewritten: Pin to Mark HTML5 Transition
Just to give you a little update about how things are going with the HTML5 transition period: alpha testing has now concluded, and the team are currently transferring accounts in order to prepare for launch.
Not much news has been released other than that, and I can’t provide a date on when to expect the game back up, however the team did state that they’re planning to give those who logged in during beta a pin.
I don’t know if we are still doing [fireworks] as we are a bit behind on everything, but I can see what we can do. I think our plan is to just give everyone a pin for those logging in during the beta build.
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administratorI’m sorry that there isn’t much more information which I can provide, but I’ll definitely to keep you updated if something new is revealed! Until that though, there’s nothing I can say in terms of dates, I’m afraid.
Waddle on!

Club Penguin’s Space Adventure Theme Tune
Welcome to the first Mountains Monday of 2021! For the first week of each month, like last year, I’ll be sharing a musical tune from Club Penguin! This one is slightly different as it’s actually the theme music for a Stage play: Space Adventure – Planet Y. 🪐
It’s a slightly eerie track, but I’ve selected it because it has vibes of exploration, given by the space-related theme! We might not be heading to space anytime soon, but the game will soon be transitioning to a new technology, and it’s also a new year. For all the opportunities exploration can bring, it can also be a little daunting, and I think this track conveys that nicely.
I feel like the track also just sounds really cool; in my view, a lot of the Stage play music is slightly underrated, so I’m hoping that you enjoy it!

Trivia of 2020 on Club Penguin Rewritten
Hi everyone,
It’s likely there’ll be a little less news this week due to the transition period to HTML5. However, as a result of Club Penguin Rewritten’s downtime, I recognise that people may be looking for something else to fill the time. As such, I’ve put together a little quiz of things on the island in 2020!
It’s really just for a bit of fun, and the answer will light up green if you click the correct one. There’s ten questions.

CP Rewritten: Testing of HTML5 Resumes
The test mode of the HTML5 client for Club Penguin Rewritten has returned! It can be accessed at this link: https://play.cprewritten.net/2020/
Update – 3rd January: If you see a black/grey screen when trying to log in, it’s because the testing is down – that’s intentional, and you won’t be able to log in!
I must stress that this is still the testing version; the transfer of account data has not occurred yet, and features such as igloos haven’t been added. Even this version will only last for a limited time until the official HTML5 client is launched.
If you’re facing issues when logging in, you’ll probably need to clear your cache. Please remember though that this isn’t the official launch of the HTML5 version, and we’re still undergoing the transition period! It’s unlikely any data or progress you make during this period will be saved.
Waddle on!

CP Rewritten: Ambition to Complete Transfer by January 5th
As you’re probably aware, we’re currently in the transition period to HTML5, where it isn’t possible to play Club Penguin Rewritten! This is to ensure that the data of accounts can successfully be transferred over to the new HTML5 client.
One of the most popular questions has been when this will be completed. The team have now stated that their ambition is to have it finished by January 5th. Notably, that does not mean the transfer will be completed by then.
We’re aiming for January 3rd-4th or 5th but I don’t know; it depends when we are done with the transferring.
-stu, Club Penguin Rewritten administratorEven though it’s not a precise date, I think that it’s helpful in conveying that the transition period is going to last a matter of days rather than a prolonged extent of time!
Thank you for reading, waddle on!

Happy 2021!
Hi everyone,
Each year, I’ve written a post to mark the turn of the New Year, containing a bit of reflection with the year that’s gone. It’s difficult to know where to begin with 2020: an unanticipated and overwhelming time, undoubtedly filled with less joy than may have overall been desirable. This post is different from previous New Year’s ones; it’s the first time where every single individual in the world, irrespective of age or location, has undergone a shared major experience: coping with a pandemic and its effects. I will never forget the chills that ran down my spine in March as the British Prime Minister spoke the words: “you must stay at home”, and the subsequent emptiness of doing so.
For many, there’ll be a range of experiences throughout it; perhaps emptiness over successive lockdowns, maybe, sadly, bitter suffering. But I hope that the year has held some moments of joy for everyone. For me, personally, I’ve been very fortunate in a year filled with suffering for such a huge number of people, but there have been countless empty days and difficult nights, and I’m hoping that the year ahead is a little easier.
It’s a bit of a tradition for me to reveal the statistics for the year, and I’ll do so with 2020, but I’d like to firstly say this. Although I’ll always be immensely grateful for the support represented through these numbers, there’s something stronger and more powerful about this community exposed this year that no figure or statistic can convey: the way that we’ve all helped each other. I hope that amid all the challenges of the year, this blog has provided some assistance, relief, and perhaps even joy, whether it be at one of the in-game events or just being a source of routine.

Club Penguin Mountains events in 2020
There are many fond memories which this blog has given me throughout 2020. Some that come to mind are more humorous ones, like seeing the confusion over the Animal Crossing April Fools prank, to more emotive ones, like reading the countless kind comments, including a particularly sweet email from a parent and lovely messages following the “Living in Lockdown” post. I hope that I’ve been able to contribute, in any way, to brightening your year, because you’ve all helped brighten mine. I recognise that beyond in-real-life events, 2020 has been a difficult year in the community too: the uncertainty in May, complications and resignations, frustrations and disappointing situations.
But in the Club Penguin community, there’s a lot to look forward to: the transition to the new HTML5 technology may mark a bittersweet end after years of Flash, but it also provides a variety of opportunities for new experiences. It’s my sincere hope that same spirit of optimism can quickly be justified for the real world too.
From the bottom of my heart, I’d like to thank everyone deeply for their support this year. I feel very blessed to be able to write content that so many people across the globe have enjoyed.
Best wishes,

Club Penguin Rewritten Retires its Flash Version
Flash Player has been the technology which Club Penguin Rewritten has relied on since it began, however as the year concludes, it’s going to be retired by browsers. As a result, the version of the game which we’re most familiar with has now closed.
I must assure you: this isn’t the end of Club Penguin Rewritten! Although it won’t be possible to play the game for a bit, the data of every single account is being transferred to the new HTML5 client. This is more modern technology, and it’ll be launched and available to play soon.
When it does launch, some aspects will initially be missing, mainly many mini-games and puffles. It’s a priority of the team to re-add them as quickly as possible, but this may take a while.

CP Rewritten: Flash Version to Close in Hours
From tonight, Club Penguin Rewritten will be retiring its Flash version of the game which we’ve grown familiar with over the last few years. This will occur at 8pm GMT, and that’s the final time which you have to do anything with the current Flash version, from collecting the final items at the Holiday Party to taking any last screenshots.
As a reminder, this is not the end of Club Penguin Rewritten; the game will be transitioning to a new technology, HTML5, but this will take some time to achieve. No data (eg. items/friends/stamps) is going to be lost from your account, but initially, there’ll be substantially less content: it seems like there’ll be around eight mini-games at launch, for example, and that puffles will be missing. It’s a priority of the team to implement, at the earliest possible stage, all missing games, such as Pizzatron 3000, Cart Surfer and Card-Jitsu.
So, a big day for the future of the game, and I just wanted to make you aware of the precise date! Please remember to take any final screenshots on the Flash version.
Waddle on!

Club Penguin’s Merry Walrus Parade Float
On several different years, at Disney theme parks, it used to be possible to see a Club Penguin-themed float at around Christmas time! Given that the Mountains Monday earlier this month was “We Wish you a Very Merry Walrus“, for today’s photo, I wanted to share the float which went alongside it in 2014.
It’s based on a room which was present at the Club Penguin party, but there’s something really cool about seeing it brought to real-life as well!
This is the last Mountains Monday of the year, but I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading them! Some of them have been really fun to write, and I’ve especially found sharing these photos fun given that many people have never seen them before.
Waddle on!
