v630 September 16 to September 22 2020


On Monday, the weekly system update included a Penguin Hide 'n Seek update.

In addition to being a graphical update:

1. A penguin spy device replaces the spy notebook for tracking and allows you to read a hint, scan, or zap a penguin spy. Enjoy configuring your scanning preference.

2. Secret agent spies were added. Please see post 3 for details.

3. The 50 points point cap has been removed.

4. A rewards shop has been added, with increased gp and xp gains.

5. Other rewards are a pet, titles, and a briefcase.

Back to our regular programming:

Our trade mark is that we hunt on the basis of threads only. We believe strongly in this concept a conscious choice.

We continue to be grateful for the overwhelming support we receive from our community of hunters. It is our ever-expanding and always flourishing community that has made hunting penguins using only a forums thread so successful.


The forums will always be our communication channel for penguin locations.
Almost twelve years of successfully reporting penguin locations by thread only has proven to many that no clan chat is needed for finding, herding and trapping penguins, and you can get your penguins in a record time just by using a thread.

Whispering Rules


(1) Please wave to a Whisperer if you see one bonding with a penguin.

(2) Please keep within the spirit of the game and refrain from disrupting the herding and trapping activities. This also includes posts on the thread that are inappropriate, confusing, and/or disruptive to maintaining accurate communication.

(3) The Penguin Whisperers operate on world 71. Please do not report locations from other organised penguin hunting world threads, as these worlds already have their own threads.

(4) Respect our open and friendly community atmosphere. If someone is irritating you or provoking you in game while spying penguins, the best solution is to place them on ignore.

(5) If you want to learn more about hunting, herding and trapping, ask advice from those who are with you. Perhaps you can teach each other some new tricks of the trade.

(6) We really welcome people posting updates as they spy, even if it is simply to confirm that the locations are correct.

(7) We kindly ask you to keep in-game issues in-game.

(8) Above all: Sit back, relax and have fun!


Please note:
We wish to minimize the posting of off-world locations on our threads, unless in exceptional circumstances (like Nardah herbalist shop). Please do not advertise other organized penguin worlds/threads locations, as world 71 is not advertised on theirs,

So, when you encounter a random penguin we encourage you to report the penguin's location on our thread,
