LittySkitty’s Legendary Journey
After four remarkable years in RPF, our Second in Command, LittySkitty, has retired from her position in High Command – but not without leaving behind a lasting legacy. As the sole leader of the Tuxedo Times for over two years, Litty’s commitment and phenomenal work ethic made our weekly newsletter flourish into what we know today. Now, she welcomes retirement as a distinguished RPF Rebel! Be sure to read LittySkitty’s retirement post to learn more about her journey and everything she’s accomplished.
Maddawg is Making Moves
Now entering the next chapter of her RPF adventure, the fabulous Mads is stepping down from her position as Third in Command and retiring as an RPF Veteran! As the Tuxedo Times’ former Puzzle Master, her impressive creativity will continue to inspire future creators and remain a highlight of this team’s growth. Throughout her three years, she has spread nothing but positivity and care for the community, which shows from the many friends she has made. Enjoy retirement, Maddawg! You will always have that dawg in you.
Destr0ya Dominates the Spotlight!
Congratulations to Destr0ya for making his mark in RPF as our 381st Troop of the Week! Absolutely destroying event attendance and chat presence these past few weeks, it came as no surprise to see him be awarded the pink trophy. Joining us in October 2025, Dest0ya has been part of many adventures in our server. Through his recent hard work, he has quickly advanced to the rank of Sergeant and remains a joy to have in our community. Keep up the excellent work, Destr0ya!
Extra, Extra, Rebel Broadcast News
Our Rebel Broadcast Team is back in action with six new posts! First up, let’s dive into the 29th edition of A Day in the Life! Take a look at the post to learn more about some of our most active members and what they’re up to outside of Rebel activities.
Then came the stars of the show! Nine stylish Rebels were featured across three Behind the Signature Items columns, where fashion is clearly their passion. January gave us a fresh twist on our army uniform, February went all out with unique accessories, and March wrapped it up with peak penguin couture.
The team then met with the lovely Tulip for her Vet Spotlight interview! After enlisting, she was promoted to staff in just over a month and worked exceptionally hard to keep RPF a welcoming community. Known for hosting karaoke and game nights, she played a key role in bringing troops together through fun activities and ultimately retired at the rank of Lieutenant General. Check out Tulip’s interview for more insight on her experience!
For Rebel Broadcast’s last post, they spoke to none other than RPF Legend Twitchy for his Vet Spotlight interview! Fighting the good fight since 2013, he experienced, inspired, and implemented vast changes in RPF until his retirement in 2019, after which he became a Rebel Federation Administrator. He is without a doubt one of our most esteemed members, having helped build the foundation of our community as it stands today. Discover more about Twitchy’s epic journey in his interview!

It is no secret that band kids love Club Penguin. So with the St. Patrick’s Day party bringing many green items into the Gift Shop, we decided to celebrate the band kids that make up our community. In Operation: Great Green Marching Machines, we logged onto CPJ – Blizzard playing our great green tubas. If you couldn’t see us before, you could certainly hear us now.
