Hello fans of the Poptropica Help Blog–Neat Whale posting! Seems that there’s a new Creator, and a new island, AND the Creators are stealing Tyrian’s ideas. Here’s what new Poptropica Creator Hades posted:
HADES IN DA HOWWWOOOSSSS!!!
I decided to rise from the Underworld and see how the new island is coming along. Not quite as cool as where I’m from, but it should be fine for you living, breathing *gag* mortals.Animadverto vos nunc 😉
HADES
Personally, I find it a little bit creepy that they’re copying Tyrian’s idea…I mean, who knows what they could do next?
Also, according to Wikipedia, Hades is the Greek God of the Underworld. (For those that think he’s Roman, you’re thinking about Pluto. 😉 ) Below the picture of the webpage, it shows that the three-headed dog, Cerberus, the Helm of Darkness, the Helmet of Invisibillity, Cypress, Narcissus, and the Key of Hades are his symbols. Also, that he’s a brother to Poesidon (God of the Sea), Demeter (‘Earth-Mother’), Hestia (Goddess of the Hearth), Hera (Goddess of Women and Marriage), and Zeus (God of the Gods), and his parents are Cronus and Rhea. This dude has a pretty big family, don’t you think? xD

From all of the history surrounding this guy and the looks of the island in the backround, it’s probably a new island the Creators are working on that is about Greek mythology, and not Reality TV. If it was RTV though…uh… well, do you think a gameshow where you have to beat Gods sounds good? I don’t. So, let’s just hope it’s a new island and that we don’t have to battle the dude that rules the Underworld, huh?
Before I wrap up this post, be sure to check out the latest Poptropican’s 911, for all your Poptropica Emergancies! 😀
I guess that means I’m out–see ya!
Odd…billions of comments yesterday were on this same post by coder.
For those of you wondering:
Coderkid’s post about Hades’s sneak peek was accidentally deleted from his account.
If you would like to view it again, Boppr1 recovered the post here – http://bit.ly/6xfjns
I thought Coderkid posted this, with 100 or more comments on his mistake on the latin/greek thing xD
NW deleted the post and made a new one.Hijuyo: She didn’t; don’t jump to a conclusion without enough evidence.
I didn’t delete it–can’t, even, because I’m only an author. But Motion’s post is gone…
Ummm… why would NW delete it? There was no need for a new one.
Hijuyo: Coderkid’s original post was accidentally deleted, so she helped write another one.
Oh dear. (embarressed face here)
I am greek!
I heard of Hades, I am gonna love this island! 😀
sweet i love greek mythology and stuff
NW remade it.
guys read Percy jackson i know all of the gods but cool a Greek island Greek mythology is cool so it sounds cool i guess
and maybe it could be a greek reality TV show but i doubt that
i know i LOVE percy jackson books!!!
ME TOOOO!!!!!!!!! 😛 Go Hepheustus!!! He is my fav god!
!!!!! I hope hes in the island!!!!
i hope Hestia is on the island!!! 🙂
I love mythology like ares god of war and athena goddess of battle stagey and hades god of the under world.and all that stuff but if your wondering where i got to no that i got it from the percy jackson books. LONG LIVE CAMP HALF BLOOD.
AWSOMENESS!!!!
Coderkid, how are you supposed to submit a costume to iCostume? When I click “submit a costume!” it just brings me to a page that says “No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator”.
Wasn’t Hades that dude in the Hercules movie with fire hair? I beat him in the kingdom heart games too…he’s hard.
As I learned from Pawsrent,Thanks Pawsrent,the Greek words say “Start thinking about it now”.
no, it means, see you soon. it makes more sense considering the winking smiley next to it.
Something freaky iz going on. Some comments on this post were deleted,plus Motion’s post as well.
He’s creepy…
The statue may be of hades’s wife, Persephone. She is often portrayed/associated with flowers(hence the flower in her hair) and her anual moving to the underworld causes her mother, Demeter, to be so sad that the earth turns cold (winter occurs).
On this place, this would happen:
Zeus:Hello, twisted brother.
Hades:I in the HAWOOOOOOZ!
Zeus:Rise waves!
Poisiden:I do that you-
Apallo:LA, LA, LA, LA, LA, LA, LA!
Medusa:Get of set will ya?!
Poisiden:I’ll drown you all in a tsunami if I have to!
Hades:DIE!
Demetres:You’re idiots.
Enclosed Lightning:What the-
O.K.:Zeus:Sky god;Poisiden:Sea god;Apallo:Light god;Medusa:Killer godess;Demetres:Hunt godess.
cool but you should’ve put Artemis godess of the waxing moon, forest and hills, and child birth
What about mars, the war god?
Mars is the ROMAN god of war, not greek, you could say i’m a.. Greek geek! lol 😉
What about Neptune?
That’s Roman for poisiden
hang on, thought apollo was spelled a-p-o-l-l-o and i thouught selene was the moon goddess and apollo drives the sun chariot and demetER is not the hunt goddess i thought artemis was
and the roman gods correspond to greek ones,like venus=aphrodite,neptune=posiedon,etc,etc…
Brave Moon- I thought Artemis is goddess of the entire moon, not just the waxing moon.
moonlight91- Selene was also replaced by Artemis, and her Roman name, Diana, replaced Luna.
That’s probably a bit snarky for younger players, EL. 😆
what the heck is snarky
It bascially means rude… 😛
here is a list of the greek gods
zeus-lightning
poseidon-sea
hades-underworld
athena-wisdom and battle
ares-war
hestia-home and hearth
dionysus-sorry but it is the main thing hes known for but wine,theatre, etc.
artemis-the moon and hunt etc
apollo-the sun poetry and medicine
hermes-theives, travelers, etc
demeter- agriculture
hespheastus- fire and black smithing etc.
aphrodite- love and beauty
hera- symbol is the cow not sure what she stands for
and minor ones like nemesis, aeoulus, circe, hercules, hecate, morpheus, etc
Just so you know I’m not trying to be mean.
some thing about that list:
zeus rules the sky (He took it from Kronos who took it from his father).
Hera-i think it might be marriage.
Athena-not really battle more strategy.
Apollo-music, not poetry.
OMG!!! i love greek mythology….wait…is that a statue of aphrodite?
Cool post but, where did CK’s go? That’s weird. Only two people could do that… But don’t know why they’d do it…
I agree…
Sorry, Neat Whale, but you have some spelling mistakes…
I was in a rush xD just tell me what they are and I’ll fix them…
He he… um… I count two. You have backorund, and jsut XD
And Zues. I understand, though.
Well, I always thought that was how you spelled Zues. Oh well! Learn somethin’ new everyday!
Goooooooooo Percy Jackson! Speaking of him, maybe its like a Percy Jackson island cause of the mythology! YAY! 🙂
Great thinking! That would be AWESOME!!!!! 😀 😀
I LOVE Greek mythology. I’m a nut, it’s true. XD It would be AWESOME if there was an island for it!!
If it really is greek myths island, it’ll probably be the best island yet!!!
I tried som stuff and if you want 2 see the post as seen at Jan 3, 2010 06:10:35 GM with the 1st 52 comments look at the chached google page at http://74.125.93.132/search?q=cache:Rzz37WlAhI4J:poptropica.wordpress.com/2010/01/01/well-at-least-we-know-the-creators-have-sense-of-humor/+https://poptropica.wordpress.com/2010/01/01/well-at-least-we-know-the-creators-have-sense-of-humor/&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a
Hijuyo: Thanks for recovering the post! 🙂
I wonder what this island is going to be named and I also wonder what its about well i hope it wont be canceled like reality TV island was!
i really hope this is another really cool mini quest or island like with that haunted house thing a greek story based island or place would be really cool in poptropica
i made a really (somewhat) good recreation of apollo. here is what the poptropican looks like http://www.poptropica.com/avatarstudio/avatar.html?a=bYjBaVzJPYjJSNWMzTmxlWFZ6
Hijuyo: Nice work, Lone Bones!
Oh dear, oh dear. It’s already the 4th over here, and CF still isn’t up. Any ideas on how to spend the credit? Either I can save up for the costume collector or buy the Swan Ballerina thing. (I really like the bun; the ones over at Spy and TT are too high for my taste.)
Same where I live. It’s already the 4th, but Poptropica is American so we’ll have to wait for the 5th. 😦
Hijuyo: It will probably come out in less than a day. For the record, it’s almost the 5th for me. x)
The giggly lady in the statue is most probably Persephone, laughing because her husbands making a total dweeb of himself.
hmm from what i saw in that second picture it appears that hades is laughing and throwing skulls at something. my guess is that he is going to be a possible boss in the island or mini quest.
i guess this because in the super power island most of the bad guys there laugh at you before you go against them. this also happens in at least one other island. and then i connect that to an enemy fight because of the giant he throws which im guessing is at you that is why i think its going to be an island or mini quest
Greek mythology is one of my mos favorite subjects. I wonder if the statue next to Hades is Persephone, too. I hope there are plenty more gods and goddesses!
I LOVE greek mythology. I’ve read all the Percy Jackson books. Also, on the creators blog, I think I saw a picture of Athena, and Poseidon’s temple. Peace Out!
Hey guys! I’d like your opinions on this. What goddess does my Poptropican look like? Here is the link:
http://www.poptropica.com/avatarstudio/avatar.html?a=bNUZ2TTJlYVdObGRXNXBNZz09
A waitress goddess? 😆 I dunno…
A while ago i said “Never mind. I changed my outfit.” or something like that.
actually, Demeter is the goddess of harvest and Gaia is the goddess of earth
OMG I CAN’T WAIT!!!! 😀 I did a report on Athena (goddess of wisdom, crafts, and war) and I can’t wait to see her on poptropica!
I LOVE APOLLO!
What is Hades laughing at? And isn’t he laughing at one of the statues at the tree base?
Omg wow I feel so left behind, since I’m talking in 2014… Lol 4 years ago everyone is talking… Omg am I the only one?? XDDD Btw.. Is Artemis the goddess of the entire moon and hunting or just one of them…?
