Week In Short

Sunday, 26th April 2020

It’s the first elemental BB! Check the post out here.

It was the usual [EU] Branch Battle with a great max of 28+!.

Team Water won by a huge WAVE! It seems like Team Hot Sauce/ Team Fire’s winning streak was extinguished.

The new BB leaderboard gets its first point for Team Water.

:teamwater: Team Water 1:0 Team Fire :teamfire:

Monday, 27th April 2020

We had an amazing [AUSIA] Sheep Takeover with a max of 34+. It was hosted by Alexei, Crystal, and Jayden. This event surprised us with the attendance of HF’s very own sheep, the HF legend – Kavasheepo! She had to attend the event dedicated to her own species!

We also had a great [EU] Stamp Heist with a good max of 45+. The event was hosted by Dlark and Ken. The helpers got wonderful stamps like the Photographer, Coffee Server, and even the Dance Club Stamps!

Tuesday, 28th April 2020

An [AUSIA] Operation: Brilliance was hosted by our new Admiral/ 3ic Barnito! Congrats on the promotion Barn, we’re looking forward to more wonderful things coming from you.:salute~3: With a max of 20+, this operation was average.

Since the Penguin Play Awards were in town, the Help Force had to attend! Though we were not nominated, we sure wanted to be there. What better way to be there than to have an event? We went for the [US] Fancy Pants event dressed up in some wonderful formal clothing and maxed 34+. This event was led by Kendall.

Wednesday, 29th April 2020

Today we decided to have a break day and host many segs to recruit new members!

Thursday, 30th April 2020

On 30th April 2020, the Help Force Army declared war on the Army of Club Penguin. Check out why by clicking here.

Despite being at war, we stil need to get some stamps. So with a [EU] Stamp Takeover, the helpers rose to do what they do best, getting stamps and looking good doing it! With a max of 39+, the event was led by the great duo, Kendall and Hannah.

Friday, 1st May 2020

Today was the first battle of the war and the interestingly, the only one we had. It was the Invasion of Northern Lights over on CPATG. With a great max of 42+, the event was led by the one and only Moon.

Saturday, 2nd May 2020

A ceasefire was announced today as most armies decided to end the current war. As of writing this, the Help Force is no longer allies with ACP but is now neutral. On the other hand, the Rebel Penguin Federation (RPF) is HF’s newest ally and we see a wonderful future ahead.

Only one event was scheduled for today, the [EU] Detective Takeover hosted by Komal, Nell, and Tistle with a max of 29+


The HF Nickname Game

Welcome to the HF Nickname Game! We will be picking 3 People of the force each week and be giving them a funny nickname. (In Partnership with Alexei.)

Choclatey – Comrade
Tistle – Twinkles
Roxy – Foxy or Rocks-ena


Interviews

 

GoTW Interview
Dated: 27/04/2020

This week’s GoTW Interview is the famous Jackbox dude! It’s Janez! Whilst being one of the new-ish members to the Help Force Army, he is also a very active member and spends his time hosting fun games in VC to play Jackbox. He attends every event he can and is from the EU Division.

Alexei: Hey Janez! Congrats on GoTW!! I’ve got some questions starting off with: How do you feel about getting GoTW?

Janez: Thank you! It definitely feels like an accomplishment of some sort. And it’s great to feel a bit special in Help Force, even if it’s only for a week.

Alexei: Do you plan to aim for GoTW again?

Janez: Not at the moment. Maybe in the future, who knows.

Alexei: Good answer, good answer. Do you know how you managed to get your GoTW this time?

Janez: I think it was Tuesday when I saw I was first on the leaderboards, and I was like; what the heck, let’s try and get GoTW! But I really had to put in quite a bit of time for this. And I stayed late a few times, so I could participate during events and segments.

Alexei: Well you know what they say, hard work and dedication pay off!
How long have you been in Help Force now?

Janez: I’ve been in Help Force for just over a month now.

Alexei: Wow time sure flies by, huh?

Janez: Yep

Alexei: So Janez, we’ve seen your command in the chat, but why don’t you let the blog know what it is

Janez: The command we are talking about of course is “!toilet-fact”, which displays: “An average person visits the toilet 2500 times a year. About 6-8 times a day. We spend about 3 years of our lives in the toilet.“.

Alexei: Alright, for my last question, do you have anything to say to those wanting to achieve GoTW?

Janez: If you put your mind to it, you can achieve it. You just have to be active and not give up, even if someone is close to you. However, if you have a lot of work to do (school/job/etc.) Don’t commit to it, wait for another week when you have more free time and you’re golden. If I can do it, anyone can. Keep that in mind.


Leaders on the Rise
Dated: 27/04/2020

 

Today we interviewed Pikkewynn or more commonly known as Wynn. She has been in the Force for a short amount of time but has shown us her capabilities in Segments and Events.
Alexei: Alright! So Wynn, how ya doing today? My first question to you is: How do you feel about Help Force?
Wynn: I’m doing great, thanks for asking! How do I feel about HF? Wow, the answer is quite simple – still excited, after a month of being here. Even my mum is excited about the idea of armies.
Alexei: Aww haha! That’s really great to hear. What is your current rank here?
Wynn: I’m a Directing Officer at this very moment, I hope it will change soon.
Alexei: Climbing the ranks I see!! Is it a goal for you to get GoTW?
Wynn: I’m planning to get it one day but I don’t always have the amount of time that is required to achieve it. To get GoTW you have to be VERY committed to the community but I believe finally my time will come!
Alexei: That’s really nice to hear. I know you can do it!
Wynn: Thanks!
Alexei: Outside of HF, do you have other things you like to do? Any special hobbies?
Wynn: So many! First I’m a scout leader and I’m studying early child education and they are my great passions. I also love sailing and I’m interested in naval history. And hiking. Hiking is wonderful
Alexei: Oh wow, all of that sounds like fun. I’m more of an indoorsy read a book kinda person 😉
Wynn: Well, I love books too! But I started with more specific hobbies :wink: (Haha, especially maritime literature!)
Alexei: Very interesting! I’ve got 2 more questions for ya 🙂
Wynn: Please go on :slight_smile:
Alexei: Awesome. How long have you been in Help Force already? Do you feel like you’ll be here long?
Wynn: I’m here with you for a month and a week already. I can’t believe how fast time flies! I consider myself an experienced member by now but I’m planning to stay for even longer of course :wink:
Alexei: We hope to have you here for a while! <3 For my last question, Do you have any advice to give to other members? Anything to say or encourage them?
Wynn: Other members? Do you mean new or members in general?
Alexei: Just in general! A lot of members read the blog 🙂
Wynn: Hahaha, ok! Well, I want to remember you that being a member of such a friendly community is not all about ranks or winning. For me, it’s about having fun together, meeting new people from all around the world, and supporting each other. Only then The Help Force will remain strong and able to unleash the power of helping!
