I can't believe I've never profiled this thread. It's helped me on so many occasions, especially when you get the odd clue you don't expect.
Last week, mudskipper roamed to Paterdomus temple on a world we needed it trapped for reset move testing. If it weren't for this clue cheat sheet, I would have thought Chuck was lying to me (still swear he does on occasion...)! We found it quickly and next time it found a reasonable trap.
Some of these clues I didn't even know existed. O_o

Hello Bill, nice to see you here :)
Knowing clues helps often a lot when searching for roamers. If you notice some clue changing back and forth with its neighbour there can be a penguin crossing the border back and forth.

/ / \ Clue analysis of the week - v126 on Penguin Locations thread is updated on post 2.6 / \ \
v_/_ ......................................................................................................................................................_\­­_v

No new penguin locations this week means no new clues either.

This week is about the first one after the pattern changes that looks like the weeks we were used to.
3 roamers - 2 western and 1 eastern, 5 closed area penguins with just one possible clue and 2 closed area penguins with two or more possible clues.

3 of the closed area penguns may hide a roamer penguin under their clues.
McGrubor's woods penguin activates "somewhere in the kingdom of Kandarin" and hides any roamer from Seers to Barbarian Outpost to Gnome Stronghold on the area north of Legends guild, Ardougne farm and fields reaching to the south fence of Gnome Stronghold.
Elf penguin activates "near some pointy-earead ones" and hides any roamer by the western mountainside west of Arandar gates.
Al Kharid/Mta penguin has several clues but if it actiavates "in the kingdom of Misthalin" it hides any roamer in Edgeville, west, north and east of Grand Exchange and Varrock, up to Rag and Bone man and down south to Digsite.

Next week with the Wilderness update most likely means changes to Wilderness clue area. Both Wildy and Daemonheim will be closed areas with just 1 possible clue.

"Next week with the Wilderness update most likely means changes to Wilderness clue area. Both Wildy and Daemonheim will be closed areas with just 1 possible clue."
I doubt it.
I expect the old fence blocking it off to be back, or something in a similar position meaning any Daemonheim pengs will be able to get the wildy clue.

Thanks Amat for the info :)
New clue again - Dorgesh-Kaan barrel penguin activates "where the big-eyed goblins dwell"
Another change in clues is due to the changes in Wildy. New Fence between Daemonheim and Wilderness makes Wilderness again closed area with just one possible clue.

Clue changes has been updated on pages 1 and 2.

This week has 6 closed area penguins with just one possible clue and 4 roamers.
Lighthouse hides Rellakka on its respawn area as well as any other roamer on the area under "between Fremennik and barbarians"
Lletya hides any roamer under its clue if a penguin has made its way west of Arandar gate to the mountain side.
Wilderness penguin hides any roamer on the square just south of the Wilderness wall and behind Black Knights Fortress.

I have just gotten a new clue!
"I've heard there is a penguin in the frozen wastes."
I have a hunch where I would find this penguin if I were to look, but I'm not risking it.
Has anyone else gotten this particular clue ever?
~ Bill ^_^
EDIT: It's got to be a very small clue. I'm not getting it again.
I wish I had gotten it on some other world than 114. It's a high risk world.
Analysis -
Here's the penguins on w114
Lletya - pointy eared ones clue
Relly - trapped in Ardy farm shop - around ardy clue
Obs - trapped in CW tree trap - south of ardy clue
Gnome Maze - trapped in maze - south of ardy clue
Lighthouse - known to be fremminik and barbarians
Feldip - gave ogres clue
Nezzy Bush - possible but not likely
Dorgesh Kaan - possible but not likely
Keldagrim - possible
Wild - most likely
WILD found in NW corner of wild in frozen part by that Frostenhorn fortress.

Woah nice!
Hmmmm if it's only for a small area in the Wildy then maybe it's the squares along the western edge? It sounds like a clue for the Trollweiss/GWD/ritual/Ghorrock area? It could overlap into the western-most squares in the Wildy ...
The quickchat indicates that there's an unseen penguin spawn in the GWD area so the clue could be designed for that one, but covers a greater area than just GWD.
