Poptropolis Games Island

The Games Begin!

Icy Comet

Non-members, you’ve been forced to sit on the sidelines, watching as members bring honor and glory to themselves.  And, though you wanted to compete so badly, you could only just sit there, slowly nibbling the only cookie that Super Thunder would let you have.

But!  That all just changed.  Because, now, Poptropolis Games is out for all!  Now, non-members, you have a chance of getting the title of champion of Poptropica for yourself.

Poptropolis Games is now available to all!

Poptropolis Games is now available for everyone to play. Visit Poptropica now to play Poptropolis Games.

We’ll see you on the medals stand!

…Of course there’s always the chance that you’ll do something like trip over ten hurdles in a row, or power-up your javelin just a little too much and end up doing a face-plant in the sand.  But, if that does happen, try not to smash your computer into a million pieces.  You’ll get it eventually.  It may be a hundred years before you get it, but you will get it…someday.

Poptropolis Games Island

Are You Ready To Begin?

Super Thunder

Non members, grab your javelins! Members, move over! We had our turn, but on this  June 14th (Thursday), Poptropolis Games will be available to all! Which tribe shall you join? I hear one of the most popular is Wildfire. I considered briefly joining that one, until I remembered I’m scared of fire. I can’t even light a candle. It’s kind of embarrassing to finally light a candle, and then drop it and scream. So I joined Pathfinders. I don’t know, it sounded like something a water person would do.

Isn’t it odd to see an old-timey person holding a microphone?

Members can spend their last day as the inhabitants of Poptropolis Games redoing the island, before the flood of non members rushes in. Non members can spend tomorrow training for Poptropolis Games. That is, if you’re up for the challenge.

Remember members, you get an epic gear pack, and non members, you get, well… Tell you what, I’ll give you guys a cookie! Consider yourselves lucky, I never let people have my cookies!

The games begin in two days!

You’ve been waiting patiently, and the wait is almost over. Poptropolis Games will be available to all this Thursday. Get ready to choose your tribe and compete for glory!
Remember, only Poptropica Members can get the Poptropolis Games gear pack, not to mention the bonus quest that takes place once the main competition is over.
Member, non-Member — in the Poptropolis Games, we like to think everyone’s a winner!

Equality for all!

P.S.S. Happy Poptropolis Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor!

Well, Here I Am…

Icy Comet

…unable to think of a title for this post.  Story of my life.  *sigh*  Oh, well.  Might as well begin the post without an awesome title.

Well, you may or may not have guessed that I’m the new author on here.  So, yeah, if you guessed that then you’re right.  Guess I’d better tell you a little bit about myself.

I’m Icy Comet.  I’m a 13 year old girl who lives in the US.  I work on my own blog, Icy Comet’s Blog.  I also work on Super Thunder’s Blog.  I’m still trying to figure out how my blog came first but her’s gets way more views than my blog…  Just doesn’t figure does it?  I also work on a couple other blogs, but those are the main ones.

I have a tendency to make stupid mistakes, like that time I thought that cavemen were monsters from Monster Carnival Island (long story).  Or like that time I was so excited about Poptropica Friends that, when I was doing a post about two of the Creators’ posts, I put one of the posts in the wrong spot, and I forgot to put the other post on at all.  I don’t know, these mistakes seem to happen most on ST2’s blog.  It’s probably cursed or something.  Wouldn’t be surprised if that was true.  Anyway, just expect to see a lot of edits in my posts.

I’ve been playing Poptropica for a super long time.  I forgot when I first started playing, but I know that there were only three islands around the time that I first started.  My username is IcyComet69 (I know, that’s real creative, isn’t it).  Here’s a picture of my beautiful Poptropican:

I’m the biggest klutz in the world.  The kind of klutz who can trip on a flat surface and constantly does.  Oh, well, can’t be perfect at everything.

I LOVE contemporary christian music (CCM! 😀 ).  Especially when it’s rock music.  My top favorite artists are Third Day, Tenth Avenue North, Switchfoot, and BarlowGirl.  My dream is to have a t-shirt from BarlowGirl’s website.  The official most awesomest song on the planet is By Your Side by Tenth Avenue North, but I have about a gazillion, million, billion other favorites.  Yeah, I’m a little too obsessed with CCM, but at least it’s a good thing to be obsessed with.

I love making headers for my blog, though sometimes they don’t turn out too good.  Like the one that I have up right now.  I thought that the colors would go better together than that.  I don’t know, it didn’t look that bad when I was making it.  Oh, well, maybe they are awful, I’m still proud of them.

To me, The Lord of the Rings is one of the most amazing things ever invented.  I’m just waiting for the movie of The Hobbit to come out.  My life will be complete when that happens.

I love making my little Animoto video/slidshow guide things.  (You would only know about that if you have read my blog before.)  I don’t know if they’ve ever helped anybody, but I still like making them.

I think that’s about it.  Oh, Super Thunder wanted me to tell the world that she was stupid.  Don’t ask me why, cause I have no idea.  I wouldn’t do this for anyone else (and I don’t actually think she’s stupid), but, world, Super Thunder is stupid.  I better get lots of cookies for saying that.

Thanks SO much to Hijuyo for adding me as an author! 😀 I hope that you guys like me as an author!

Well, until next time: “Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart.” -Even if it Breaks Your Heart by Eli Young Band

Super Thunder

Snickerdoodle!

*spotlight goes on the top of the stairs*

Wait, what? No, I’m down here, you overshot a bit!

*spotlight moves down*

Much better. So, as you can obviously see, or maybe not see, because of the spotlight, I’m the newest author of the PHB! Sure, you’re probably thinking, “Who in Early Poptropica’s clothesline is that?” Well, to be honest, I’m not really sure who I am, either. It all changes, every day. Usually, I’m a thirteen year old (though not for much longer!) girl, with the mind of a five year old. I have tried to defy gravity, and ended up with that. *points at bruised ankle*

I have a terrible sense of what is dangerous and what is not; cliff diving sounds appealing to me, and it is my dream to go skydiving. So far, no luck. I’ve only ever gone bungee jumping. I also have unhealthy obsessions. My current obsessions include Phantom of the Opera, and its sequel, Love Never Dies. Okay, so a lot of people think “What’s so appealing about that?” That’s what I thought the first time I saw it, but after… Ahhh… *in love*

I go by many names, including Christine, xMegxGiryx, Nessa, ST2, Super Thunder, and Wicked Witch of the East. No one ever seems to call me by my real name. Which is fine with me, I don’t like it anyway.

My attention span is tiny. I have no patience for what x is equal to and I never will. I also don’t… Oooh, look, a butterfly!

*returns ten minutes later, with  a butterfly*

A Farewell Story of Me.

Hicoga

Wow, been a long time since I’ve posted on here..

Hey guys, hope you still remember me, as GA or as Hicoga.

Yeah, I’m leaving the blog, which probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise considering that I’ve been dormant on here for the past year.

Now don’t think this means I’m leaving, leaving. You can find me all the time on the PHB chat. ( xat.com/thephc ) I’m really not going anywhere I just think that it isn’t very fair for me to hog up one of the spots on here when I don’t even really care about poptropica anymore.

Although if Juyo wanted to make this the Poptropica/Minecraft Help Blog I’d be all for it. 😉

Now I don’t want this to be just like any old farewell post. I’m going to let you all join me while I reminisce about my time here at the PHB.

“Crowd Groans”

So sit down, grab some popcorn, and enjoy.

It all started at school in 5th grade when my friend Mark told me about this new game he’d found on the internet. So I thought I’d try it out and logged on to “Poptropica.com”. I made a character named Golden Axe and played around for a bit in this new virtual world. Poptropica had just opened up about 1 year prior.

I beat all the islands and soon became bored with the game after about a week. I started searching for hidden things around the islands and on the internet. Of course, I eventually found the Poptropica Help Blog. At the time I had no clue I would one day be part of the site.

My favorite author at the time was Codien and he held this contest in one of his posts to get a beard added to your poptropican. I entered the contest and actually ended up being selected as one of the winners. He said the beard would be added to your character about a week afterward and so I waited. A week went by, no beard. Two weeks, Three weeks, and then I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I eMailed Hijuyo about my conflict and she was very helpful and got me my coveted beard. After that, we kept eMailing back and forth and soon became friends.

Well, the rest is history.

Thank you to everyone on here and I hope this blog stays successful for years and years to come.

And by the way, going back to what I said earlier, I am starting up a Minecraft blog called “The Daily Block” Check it out by clicking the picture below.
