Arrival of Autumn Seasonals

There’s no better way to spend a chilly autumn day than by cozying up with some puzzles! Until the last week of November, you have the chance to earn the delightfully sweet Pumpkin Spice Puzzler role by submitting the Tuxedo Times’ Challenge of the Week! To become a certified puzzle master this fall, you will need to submit 6 out of 10 completed challenges by the final week of November.
Keep in mind, you must submit the completed puzzle the week it’s released to receive Rebel Cash and make progress toward the role. You can find the first two fall Challenge of the Week puzzles below!

The opportunity to earn Seasonal Roles is also ongoing until the end of November! Announced on September 1st, four unique and harvest-themed roles were revealed and available to all those who recruit new members to our community! Be sure to review the post for all details on how to progress through the four recruiting tiers!

Welcoming Artistic23 to HCOM!

For her admirable qualities, unwavering passion, and exceptional leadership, our very own Artistic23 was promoted to a position in High Command on September 22nd!

She has been at the forefront of encouraging, guiding, and inspiring other Rebels to not only set personal goals, but to feel accepted within our community. Congratulations on this remarkable HCOM achievement, Artistic23!

The White Order War

On September 15th, RPF went to war with a controversial army known as The White Order. Despite the fact that their forces were mainly comprised of leaders from seven different armies, TWO experienced a devastating defeat in the war they declared, as RPF emerged victorious by winning all 10 battles! Thank you to all the staff, troops, and veterans who participated in the fight!

Wartime can be chaotic… and so can this Word Unscrambler puzzle Mads made! Successfully unscramble the names of all 8 servers we invaded or defended during the war against TWO, as well as a bonus word describing TWO’s final moments against us. Once you’ve done that, submit a screenshot AND the special secret message circled within the puzzle!

On Thursday, it was announced that our rival army, TWO, declared war on RPF! In Operation: Invasion of Thermal, we successfully took their land. Afterwards, Operation: Defense of Cold Front took place and TWO proved to be no match for us, and their invasion ultimately failed. Later that day, our foes attempted to take more land during Operation: Defense of Chinook, but we defended our beloved territory once again!

Three more battles were held on Friday! The first was Operation: Invasion of Snow Fort, which resulted in an easy victory as TWO’s numbers began to dwindle. In the next battle, Operation: Invasion of Abominable, we won after just one room since our rivals were a no-show. It was clear TWO had given up on the war they declared, as no one attempted to show for Operation: Defense of Cold Front.

The final event of the week was Operation: Defense of Thermal, which marked our 8th win in a row!

Forget about the snake – there’s a penguin in my shoe! During Operation: Shoe In To Win on Thursday, Rebels laced up comically large sneakers to kick things up a notch. For Friday’s sea-riously ethereal event, Operation: Starry Like a Starfish, we swam through the sea dressed as purple starfish!
