Zippo

[holly rox2]

hey there once was this zippo mystery look what i found out:

In 2005, Billybob said something about a penguin named Zippo the Penguin. It is unknown if Zippo was going to give out a free item, such as how Rockhopper started off giving out an eye patch. Zippo the Penguin was never seen on Club Penguin. Some penguins said Zippo was supposed to be yellow, but this was never confirmed. When asked who Zippo the Penguin was, Billybob responded:
“ That's a future secret. stay tuned. ”

Hi there, Zippo the Penguin was one of our oldest penguins on Club Penguin. Zippo was the author of the waddle on comic strip. It is possible that we will be hearing from this penguin again, however, we have not heard from Zippo for quite some time. Keep your eyes peeled and let us know if you hear anything. If you have anymore questions, feel free to contact us again. We are always here to help you.

Waddle on,

Another Email from CP about Zippo

When did you hear about Zippo the penguin? I do not think anyone has seen him for a long time. I hear that he was the original creator of the 'Waddle on' comics.

Since Zippo is a penguin just like the rest of us, we do not know when he might appear next. It doesn't hurt to keep an eye out though!

By the way, sled racing with your penguin buddies is always a fun game to play together, so why not try something new and challenging? Instead of finishing first, why not hit every obstacle in your way, and see who is the slowest champion of all!

Hello Conaboy2,

It sounds like you have also heard a rumor about a penguin called Zippo the Penguin. We haven't actually heard any stories about such a penguin. Did you know that each comic in the Club Penguin Times is actually written by players just like you? You can submit your comic to the Club Penguin Times by clicking the Submit Comic button near the end of the newspaper.

This email reply suggests that Zippo may be simply be a user who at an early time was close with the moderators. He may also be under the ownership of a moderator, and was to be a official character that was scrapped. The replies hinting that there may be a return may just be appeasing curious users.

Possible "Zippos"

* One penguin was spotted on August 15, 2009 on server Cold Front as Zippo Peng, when asked if he was the penguin who was referred on August 2005 he said "Who you are talking about?".

Trivia

* It is unknown why Zippo was not added into Club Penguin. However, it is possible that the Club Penguin Team might have scrapped this idea.
* Fluffy the Fish seemed to have belonged to Zippo in the past.
* His address is 2993 West Iceberg Lane, which he included on his "Lost Fish" ad.
* In the second email, the last paragraph mentions Sled Racing. This could mean Zippo may be one of the old blue penguins clapping at the end of Sled Racing.
