Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) is a colossal community and Club Penguin army, engaged in gaming and believing in being social. We hold events on a wide range of games, notably including Club Penguin.
The army was founded on July 7th, 2009 by Ganger90. It was once a group of rogues belonging to the legendary server Mammoth at Snow Forts. Today, it is a large community with over 9,000 members with which to interact!
Greetings, agents! The SWAT Corporation presents you with the Great Recruiting Competition I. Who will emerge victorious?

Recruiting Explained
Recruiting is the process of inviting individuals to the SWAT community. In SWAT, simply inviting an individual to the Discord server will count as a recruit. Recruiting is essential for SWAT for multiple reasons.
Why should you recruit?
Recruiting allows SWAT to grow, increasing the member count
The addition of individuals in the community can help increase in-server activity
Recruiting can lead to enlisting, allowing SWAT to acquire larger participation at events and battles
You will discover more people and connect with them, making new friends
As a staff member, you will be consistent and almost immune to demotions
Who can you recruit?
Friends on the Internet or by word of mouth
Family members
Random Internet users who may be interested
Former members who are not affiliated with any Club Penguin army at present
The two lists above are not complete, because there are many, many other options!
The SWAT Corporation offers free training to any troop willing to learn how to recruit. Please do not hesitate to contact a High Command (HCOM) member or Commander. Moreover, we are ready to provide you with meritable advice.
The Recruiting Competition
This month, the recruiting competition is based on a point-based score system. Do not be influenced by this system, however, as your ultimate vision should be to recruit consistently.
Score system:
1 recruit: +5.0 points
Any individual invited to the Discord server during the competition is counted.
1 departure: -2.5 points
Any recruit leaving the server is counted, only if they joined during the competition.
1 enlist: +7.5 points
Any recruit that registers an account on CPA Battleground, and has it successfully activated, is counted.
Messenger’s Bonus: +2.0 points
You will receive a bonus if your recruit sends at least 5 messages upon joining.
Communicate with your recruit after they join to make this happen. You should try to make them converse with you.
Welcomer’s Bonus: +0.5 points
Welcome your recruit for a small bonus.
Welcoming is counted only if done within 15 minutes of their joining, or if not more than 5 messages have passed by.
Attendee’s Bonus: +10.0 points
Have your recruit attend an event.
Ask your recruit if they can attend an upcoming event. It would be best if you tried to recommend them to do so.
The Outreach Bonus: +7.5 points
If your recruit invites another member to the server, you will be rewarded.
To achieve this, you can encourage your recruits to invite their friends.
Please note that you may receive points for actions done by or on your recruit only. You cannot earn points by acting on a recruit that is not yours. Furthermore, we are logging all invites, so we strongly encourage you to create your own Discord invite link.
Competition Starts: Monday, October 14, 2024, 05:00 PM UTC Competition Ends: Saturday, October 26, 2024, 05:00 PM UTC The competition spans 12 days.
Prizes
All contestants will receive coins based on their score. For every 1 point, a contestant would receive 500,000 SWAT Coins. Furthermore, winners at the following placements would receive additional rewards…
1st Place: 25,000,000 SWAT Coins
2nd Place: 15,000,000 SWAT Coins
3rd Place: 5,000,000 SWAT Coins
Chances of promotions will be greatly raised for those who bring in a large number of recruits.
Registration
To participate, you will need to sign up. To do so, please head over to the #the-great-recruiting-competition channel of our Discord server. You may sign up at any point in time during the competition. However, it is strongly encouraged to register before the Competition officially starts, as it will be more fair to you.
Registration Starts: Sunday, October 13, 2024, 11:00 AM UTC Registration Ends: Saturday, October 26, 2024, 05:00 PM UTC (By the end of the Competition) The main registration time lasts 30 hours, but you may register at any time during the Competition.
Guidelines
Each bonus can be only claimed once per recruit.
One should not recruit users with inappropriate profile information at the time of their joining. You will not be rewarded for any action performed on or by these recruits.
Please do not use another user’s invite link to recruit, even if you are willing to pass them the reward.
Please do not steal others’ invites by falsely claiming that their recruit is yours.
Pictorial evidence can be asked for at any time if there are issues with the guidelines being followed. Please keep this in mind while recruiting.
Creating alternate accounts [alts] and recruiting them to the community will not count as a recruit. Please do not use this to unfairly gain advantage. Inform commanders upon inviting an alt account to SWAT’s server, so we are aware it is not to be counted.
No loopholes to any of the aforementioned guidelines.
We wish all contestants the best. May the most hardworking emerge victorious! Thank you very much for partaking in our community!
With Project Conquest under our sleeves, watch how the Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) strategize and specialize in Halloween-themed combat.

6. The Drop That Was
The September Drop was absolutely nothing for us! Unlike other armies, SWAT improved during the September drop. The Templars of Club Penguin and the People’s Imperial Confederation have fallen into the small-medium army community. Whereas, SWAT has increased its sizes drastically. As a result, we acquired a size of 20 this month and usually averaged more than 10–15 in size. We are pleased to see greater participation from fellow troops, for it will largely contribute to our purpose in the army community.
7. Project Conquest: Blood Bowl
The Club Penguin Armies Army League organization has officially announced Project Conquest, themed Blood Bowl. Previously, this was seen in the army community in 2021. This year, it has officially made a return with the New Westland continent of the army map as the prize pool. Project Conquest was initiated earlier today, and SWAT will participate in multiple invasions and battles throughout October. You will experience more AUSIA events and daily invasions for a while! The Project will finish on October 26. SWAT’s goal is to stay on the map for as long as possible and try to acquire as much land as possible.
Consequently, we have created a beautiful CPA Battleground background for you to equip on your in-game player profile. It has been added to the game swiftly. Moreover, you can now use the !army SWATBB command in-game. This command lets you equip the Halloween-themed uniform designed exclusively for this tournament!
The new Halloween-themed background for SWAT is available on CPA Battleground
Let us upkeep the momentum and rejuvenation. We are never sure what awaits in the future!
The Special Weapons and Tactics cherishes another week of wholesome events, swiftly rising in size.
