Da SUPAH BOWL! OF CHEESE!

Coskit

Are you ready for some FOOTBALL! As many of us Americans know, the Super Bowl is coming up soon. (No, it is not made of cheese.) 😦 In honor of this, the Poptropica Creators have released a new costume of an American Football player, and a FREE Avatar Studio card. Credit to Noisy Fish for this update.

Are you ready for some football!?

It’s almost time for the big game! You can represent your team with a brand new American Football Player costume!
We’re also giving away a free Avatar Studio card! If you want to add it to your inventory, make sure you save your game!

DIRECTOR D

The one and only Director D at 12:39 PM

This also gives us a clue about the Creators’ identities.  At least one of the Creators – Director D- is American, because he made this post and knew about the Super Bowl. So, hope y’all enjoy the new items. (No, I’m not Southern.)

Since I have exam week coming up, I will be quite busy in the coming week or two (or three). Therefore, I will not be quite as active in the PH communities and Poptropica. You probably won’t see me nearly as often, but don’t worry, because I’ll be BACK!

Out’a heeerre!

Meet Da Minotaur

Coskit

My first real post! Hope you like it! Anyway, the new buzz in Poptropica is the PCB post, Meet the Minotaur.

Meet the Minotaur!

Wonder what they charge for admission?

HADES

The one and only Hades at 2:13 PM

It features Hades next to a Meet the Minotaur sigh pointing upwards, and it says “Wonder what they charge for admission?” It also shows a step-like formation of rocks in the background, which you probably have to climb in order to…..da da da daaa…..MEET THE MINOTAUR! Roar!

If any of you are unsure as to what a minotaur is, it is a humanoid creature with abnormally large height and a bull’s head, complete with sharp horns. If you have read the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, the Minotaur is mentioned in the first book, the Lightning Thief.

In other – random – news, I took the Mensa I.Q. test designed for PHd’s, and I am officially a certified genius (and then some!) Awesome!

Hope you liked my very first post!

DaVinci… out!

What would you like to see me create next?

coderkid

OK, I was thinking today – and I came up with zip. Zilch. Nada. Bip. Bing. Ting. Tat. Fip. In other words, nothing. Anyway, here was the question: “What is the BEST thing I could create, that would service Poptropicans/PHB readers the most?” So hopefully, your brains are working better than mine is right now. 😛

Oh – and don’t make it something that’s out of this world, like say, a credits generator. And yes, I know that that’s exactly what you were thinking. And yes, I am psychic. And yes, I am standing behind you as you read this. Boo.

But getting on – if you have any good ideas, I mean really good ideas, hit me with em’. If yours is chosen, you’ll get tons of credit. No, not CREDITS, you greedy little man, CREDIT. Two different things. Don’t get it mixed up.

So COMMENTTTTTT nowz. Thanks you. And YES, I said THANKS you. Deal with it.

Thanks,
A MadMan.

BTW – Don’t forget all the awesome posts below. Check em’ out, g-dog:

It’s…DaVinci! (No, famous people aren’t coming back from the dead)
Kickin’ it with the Creators (Luckily, the Creators survived with minor injuries)

Lastly, sending accounts has been delayed – mostly cause I just haven’t had the time. But don’t worry, you’ll get them. 😉

It’s… DaVinci!

Coskit

What’s UP people! It’s DaVinci! I’m the new author on the PHB. I’m a girl and I’m 13 years old. I live in the U.S.A. I have been playing Poptropica since it came out. My names on Poptropica are Friendly Fire and DaVinci. I am an inventor, a champion speller and a national math champion. I’m half Indian and half Italian. I LOVE math, astronomy, and physics. I play squash and fencing. My I.Q. is..well…….I won’t say. But I’m a certified genius.

I am also a knowledge junkie, and I know many strange facts (Mt. Everest grows about 1/2 inch a year). I go on the PHB chat a lot, so you may have seen me there at least once. I hope you all will appreciate and respect me as much as you respect the others. Thanks to all my friends on the PHB (you know who you are) and especially, of course, the PHB staff – Hijuyo, Coderkid, Smockers, Green Seal, Codien, and Neat Whale. Go cheese!

Kickin’ it with the Creators

coderkid

Hey guys!

Coderkid here. It seems like the Creators have LOTS of free time all of a sudden…*mystery music plays* Anyway, the Creators made 2 blog posts, IN A ROW. I don’t think I’ve seen them this active before… o_O However, here are dar dem updates.

#1 – Reality TV Island Sneak Peak!

By now, we can definitely say for sure that Reality TV island has not been abandoned, and perhaps was even resurrected because of our protests. This post by Dr.Hare shows us a shot of RTV that we’ve seen before (see this post by Comic Kid), except we can see that they’ve changed the sign…here’s the new post.

Knock, Knock!

Who’s there?
Watson
Watson who?
Watson TV today?

Here’s the other post (it’s an old one, but it shows the same scene), by Comic Kid Oct. 1, 2008.

Comfortable Living

Here is a sneak peak from an upcoming island.

– Posted by Comic Kid.

So they changed the sign…why? Who knows. 😛 Probably a change in plot…

#2 – New Wallpaper!

Soon after Dr. Hare made his post with the updated sign, Shark Boy makes this post about the Counterfeit Island wallpaper!

Counterfeit Island Wallpaper

If you’re a fan of Counterfeit Island, you’ll enjoy this new Poptropica wallpaper!

– Posted by Shark Boy.

Pretty spiffy wallpaper, eh? xD Me likes…but I doubt I’d want to be spending any time with the Black Widow. Mostly simply because she’s EVIL.

So what do you make of all these updates? It seems like the Creators are working on 2 islands at the same time…Reality TV island and *gag* M-m-mythology island. Eww…

But anyway, post your interesting or creative comments and questions in the comments beloooowwwww…

Oh and Creators, I know you probably hate me, or at least have disdain for me (:P), but if you read this pleeze bring the Scavenger Hunts back. And if you don’t, just know that I know where EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU LIVE. I’m not kidding. That is all. 😀
