First of all Ive been on CP since the end of 2009 (by end I mean like December 27th) so I havent been around to experience some of the older parties and events but some of the old parties look so... lackluster in my opinion. I mean look at some screenshots of the Halloween party 2005 here on this wiki. Almost nothing changed. Its not even a party. Halloween 2006 improved a lot but it still was somewhat lacking in the design compartment. 2007 and even more so 2008 is where things really improved. Halloween 2010 (which was the first I experienced) was really cool in my opinion. 2011 was cool too but the costumes released around the time were just really... blech in my opinion. I thought some of it was gross. But I really liked the 2012 version. I didnt really go on during the previous one in 2013 but it looked even cooler. Compare the look of the Town from the 2005 and even 2006 versions to the more recent versions. They just look so much better right? The same stuff I said about CPs Halloween parties can be applied to their Christmas parties (their two permanent ones) but unfortunately thats the best we will get.

Moving on to the more negative things that have happened for parties... The parties have gotten progressively worse in my opinion. Lets start with 2010 which towards the end of that year things started getting bad for parties. Cave Expedition? It was a cool concept I thought. Wasnt much of a party but I kinda liked it. Puffle Party 2010? Liked a lot. Penguin Play Awards 2010? I was annoyed QftGP won a second time but it was still nice enough. Skip ahead to the Island Adventure party: This is the first party I would label as mediocre. It was neat enough but... looking at screenshots from the 2009 version I thought that one looked better. The clothes were just "meh" and the decorations made me feel like they shouldnt have changed the 2009 decorations too much. Music Jam was good but the Mountain Expedition? I thought it was dumb. They called it the "Toughest" Mountain but it was anything but. It took me like two minutes to get up my first time. Skip again to 2011 with the Wilderness Expedition. I thought it was better than the Mountain one but still just felt eh. My favorite part about the party was the invisible glitch at the cliff. Thats really it.

Skip ahead through 2011 and parties either improved or stayed somewhat the same as before. The "Great Snow Race" more like in-game EPF mission I thought was really cool. I found it fun. Things were good the rest of the year (I thought the Card-Jitsu party was great but I was disappointed there was no Snow) but then 2012 happened. Things really took a nosedive in quality. In my opinion the only good parties were the Puffle and Medieval and Halloween parties but the Christmas was good too. Everything else was either bad or just "okay" or disappointing (looking at you RH's Quest)

2012 also started the first Takeover thing with the Marvel Party. I thought that party was alright but never would have guessed a long and annoying stream of "Takeovers" would come forth.

I wont even talk much about 2013 because of sheer not-goodness but I liked the new Prehistoric party and Operation Puffle as well as Christmas and Celebration of Snow. The other parties were mediocre or worse: stunk. The Medieval party was a big disappointed. It should have been called the Alchemy party. It had almost nothing to do with Medieval times. By the way: Star Wars was ok but the other takeovers sucked.

2014 is halfway through and I dont have much expectations for CP at this point. The only two parties I liked were the Prehistoric party (although it loses points for being a repeat) and the current Penguin Cup although it also loses points for being unfair because everybody and I mean everybody is on "team blue" so none of the others including myself have a chance. The other parties also stunk. The Muppets Takeover wins the award for being the worst party of all time in my opinion.

I know no one is going to read this all so heres a short version: The old parties were cool and all but lacked a lot: few decorations and free items and no mascots to meet. The middle parties were pretty good. The newer parties have great decorations and stuff but 3/4ths of them a year suck and things arent looking up any time soon. We need a happy medium.

And that is just how I see parties and dont even get me started on clothing. I really like all the new furniture from ever since I joined CP but why must most of the clothing look so... bad? Not to mention the CP team likes making palette-swaps of the bad looking wigs and stuff. Can we just have more regular head items? Why so many dumb wigs?

Ive talked enough here. I really dont expect anyone to read even one paragraph of that. Im really just rambling and talking to myself here. I've made longer wall of words than this :P. I kinda agree with you and yeah, the Muppets World Tour would be the worst party ever it barely destroyed the Club Penguin Island storyline.

KUDOS!! I hate muppets too! The 3D muppets are too ugly and creepy!! have you been to CA Adventure
