Hey there!

Thanks for your email. It's great to hear that you got the 'Meet Gary' Stamp!

Gary is around for all penguins when they first login to the medieval party to introduce his wizardy apprentices to Ye Olde Club Penguin. However, he doesn't really have to time chat as he has so many penguins to see. But fear not young penguin! He is going to be around a lot for a chat with his wizarding waddlers over the next week. I have included some times below to help you meet him.

So it isn't a glitch. But not being able to enter rooms was a glitch.
