We concluded our Winter Olympics 2020 on Wednesday!

Congratulations to Cerberus and all of our medal winners this week, check out this post for a recap of the results!
Our newest member of HCOM is Tuxedo Times’ very own Mac! He’s been working hard in his position as an officer and HCOM decided it was time to promote him to his new role as a Third in Command. Make sure you congratulate Mac if you haven’t already!
Our Rebel Commander Crazzy got named as CPAH’s Person of the Year 2020! She’s put in countless amounts of work into the army community this year, even earning the title of CPA Legend last week, meaning this award was destined to be hers! Congrats Crazzy!
Troop of the Week this week is Eskild! Esk has been attending plenty of events, being active and friendly in chat and HCOM felt that he was the perfect candidate for Troop of the Week! Congrats Esk!
—◊ 2020 Year in Review ◊—
It’s undeniable that RPF has had an extraordinary year this year. From breaking multiple size records, winning four consecutive tournaments and coming out as the victors of many wars, we have proven to be nearly unbeatable the entire year.
The first of our record-breaking events occured in March with Operation: All Boxed Up! Hitting sizes of 178, leading to us breaking the CPA record and kicking off what was shaping up to be an amazing year.
In April, we fought ACP in the CPAM Premier League tournament finals, securing our first of many tournament wins this year. Later in the month saw a Declaration of War against former allies ACP, kicking off World War Rewritten. During this we successfully invaded and defended many servers against our opponents, including our Defence of Tuxedo.
Fast forward to June, a month dominated by Legends Cup X, and where we took home our second trophy of the year! Hitting sizes of 162 in our semi-final battle against the Ice Warriors, and 155 in the finals against Help Force, we smashed the record for the number of penguins in uniform, as well as accomplishing yet another win!
In July, RPF fought in our Avatar-themed Summer Olympics! While all four teams achieved numerous medals for their teams, Team Terra claimed the Gold! Later in the month, RPF fought alongside our allies, the Ice Warriors and Dark Warriors in a war against the Doritos, forming the powerful Black Ice Alliance. Coming out victorious, and claiming the servers of Chinook, Frozen and Summit, the BIA celebrated with a joint event, maxing 153 with all 3 armies combined.
In October, we claimed another victory in CPAH’s Fright or Fight tournament, with our defeat of the Army of Club Penguin in the finals, and maxing 128, a size never seen before during this time of year.
November saw us fighting against the Water Vikings in the Black Seas War, including the Invasion of Cream Soda which saw us breaking our AUSIA uniform size. Claiming two pieces of land, Icicle and Cream Soda, our strength prevailed once again with yet another victory in the war.
We ended the year triumphantly with our fourth tournament win in the Christmas Chaos X tournament. Fighting against our allies, Ice Warriors, in the finals, we proved once again our dominance and took home the sought after trophy. Ending our year came the Winter Olympics, with our Disney Villain-themed teams competing in the minigames, however only Team Cerberus could claim victory!
With the end of Adobe Flash, it is likely that the sizes we hit this year may not again be possible. However, due to the growing popularity of CPPSes after the Corona-boom, and the recruiting efforts from HCOM, Officers and troops alike, we were able to show off our unprecedented power this year. The below graphs show the trends of our sizes throughout this year:

Woah, editor’s note, this doesn’t usually happen!
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everybody who has helped make this year so special and legendary for RPF. I’ve been lucky enough to be one of the people who has seen first-hand how we’ve grown exponentially over the last year, and it’s truly insane to think about everything we accomplished this year so thank you. To everybody who attended events, be it CPR costume events to tournament finals, to everybody who recruited, hyped, spoke in main and made RPF truly the best army and community there is. Whether you’ve been here since the start of the year, joined during the Corona-boom, or only joined last week, we really wouldn’t be here without you <3
