We’re into the 2nd week of Help Force Island’s Puffle Party and it’s been endless fun since it started! We’ve had new pins released and visits from our favourite mascots, like Sam the Sasquatch and Puffle Handler!

Week in Short

Monday 21st September

Today we logged onto CPR for an amazing EU Popcorn Takeover. We also had a Card Jitsu Fire tournament held by Valour on our own CPPS, Help Force Island. It was so much fun and well done to Stemv, Josh and Pragya for placing top 3! Good amount of segments held throughout the day today to help us gain more members!

Tuesday 22nd September

Did somebody say Stamps?! We logged onto CPR for an AUSIA Stamp Fiesta! The event was a great success and we got many stamps and new members! Fruity and Holly also co-hosted a Find Four Tournament on Help Force Island, well done to Josh, Snow and Valour for placing top 3!
Segments were going strong through the day to help us to grow our army more!

Wednesday 23rd September

We felt like clowning around a little today, so we logged onto CPR for an eventful EU Clown Takeover! Another successful event with some great formations/tactics. As well as the event, we also had 2 fun events! Firstly was a HFIsland Trivia hosted by Kara which went great and lot’s of people learned new stuff about HF/the world and later on that day, Maya held a Sled Racing tournament on HFIsland which went great and was won by Chickn, followed by Mexican Trash in 2nd and Taylor in 3rd!! We also had multiple segments through the day!

Thursday 24th September

Today we logged onto CPArmies for an AUSIA O Berry Takeover. Again, another amazing event which found us dressed up in a Puffle O’Berry costume doing multiple awesome tactics/formations. This event was also co-led by Ru, one of our newest generals for the first time, and she did amazing!! Well done Ru! The day was followed by multiple segments and a Skribbl.o game!

Friday 25th September

We had 2 events today, an EU Bucket Hat Takeover on CPR which was a lot of fun and hilarious to see everyone running around with buckets on their heads, the event was amazing and had lots of fun tactics/formations. Then later on in the day, we had a US Grape Balloon Takeover, again on CPR. This event went amazingly too and was also lead by our new generals for the first time!! So well done to all those who led for the first time! Nerve racking, right? The day consisted of multiple segments to make sure we gained new members for the Practice battle on Saturday!

Saturday 26th September

And the whole week led up to this day, our practice battle with Army of the Oriental Seas (AOS for short). We logged onto CPArmies and battled again then in a great, intense battle and came out on top with a 2-0 win! Well done to all the helpers/staff who attended, we couldn’t of done it without you! We also had a good amount of segments through the day. 

Overall, a great and busy week for Help Force!


GoTW Interview

09/23/2020

HFI: Heyy Xtra! Thank you for taking the time to be interviewed today! Congrats on being this weeks GoTW! How does it feel to finally win?

Xtra: Honestly it feels amazing! I never thought I would be able to get to this point. But i had alot of support behind me so that helped loads!

HFI: Awww that’s awesome, its good to know you’ve gotten lot’s of help! Which Helper(s) if any, have been particularly supportive in the build up to you winning your first GoTW?

Xtra: To be honest, everyone has been incredibly supportive! But most of all Sods, Ru, Pragya, Stemv and Thetical! There’s no way I could have done this without them!

HFI: They’re all amazing, Ru and Stemv seem to be particular helpful when it comes to helping people achieve GoTW! What did you have to do to win? Did you do anything in particular this week that maybe you’ve done differently in previous weeks?

Xtra: Yeah! I tried to attend as many segments as possible to make sure I got the biggest amount of points I could. In other weeks, I usually only attend segments when I am free, but this week in particular I made an effort to put as many irl things aside as possible to focus on keeping my segment attendance up!

HFI: Ah okay! Well you did great to achieve it this week. So, since you have now won GoTW, have you thought of what your command is going to be? By the way, your custom role colour is amazing.

Xtra: I’m glad you like it! My favourite colours are all bright/neon so I thought it would fit well for my GoTW role! I have thought a bit about my command, but I haven’t decided on anything as of yet. I do think though that it will be something funny as well as being something that people would recognise is from me! :eyes:

HFI: I loveeee neon green, it’s so under-rated smh! So Xtra, what is your favourite thing about HF?

Xtra: Oh that is easy for me. Definitely the people. The people in this community are amazing. When joining I originally didn’t think I’d stay for very long, but the kindness and overall amazingness of every single person in this group helped me decide to stay, 1 million percent. I honestly didn’t think I’d make as many new friends as I have when i first joined fr. (Sappy but true haha)

HFI: Aww that’s really nice of you to say :uwu:, Help Force is a great place/community to be in, I love it too! Changing the subject, do you have any hobbies outside of HF? What do you enjoy doing?

Xtra: When i’m not on discord I’m usually either studying or sleeping :rofl: . Nah just joking, I really like to film and direct short films and music videos in my spare time (something I want to do when I’m older), as well as playing football. Tbh though I also just like being with other people whenever i can!

HFI: Yeah and with COVID-19 it’s been quiet hard to meet up with people, so that sucks. and ooo the music/film directing sounds awesome! Good luck with that, keep me in mind when you’re rich and famous! :wink: Finally, do you have any advice for those who haven’t won GoTW in the past and want to go for it?

Xtra: Honestly, just try your hardest. Ask your friends to help motivate you throughout the week, it helps so much. Also, make sure to get a good night’s sleep in the first few days of the week so that you aren’t absolutely exhausted by the time friday comes! (Trust me I learnt that the hard way! :laughing:)

HFI: Haha you’re right, motivation is key! Thank you for your time Xtra and congrats again! I look forward to hearing/seeing your command when you eventually decide! :Yay:

Xtra eventually chose a command, being: !eish and the command says “Major oof right there fam” so be sure to use it if you can!
