Ask Poptropica Siri is a Q&A segment here on the PHB where you, dear readers, are invited to send in your Poptropica questions to have them answered with all the wisdom you can expect from a Smart Icicle.
Hello, fellow Poptropicans! Welcome back to Ask Poptropica Siri, with a twist! In celebration of the recent Poppies Awards and the PHB’s Sweet 16, I’ve decided to make this round Poppies-themed. Let’s roll!
What’s your favorite Poppies category from your tenure as a PHB staff writer ~Magic Poptropican
This is a good question! Though I wasn’t active until 2021, I would have to say the Best Fan Art category is my favorite. I really like looking at the different art styles that the Poptropica community has, and it just blows my mind to see the masterpieces shown in the Poppies.
Other top categories I love are Best Fanfiction and, new this year, Best Animation/Animatic. I have always loved animatics, including fun ones like Gentle Dolphin’s “Who Broke the PHB’s Coffeepot?“). (Outside of Pop, EverenArt’s masterpieces comes to mind.)
This question gives me a nice nostalgia, as I reflect on joining the Pop community as a freshman coming into high school just a few years ago. I’m really grateful to have joined the PHB team because it really started my growth as a writer, and I’m happy to be part of this community.
Did you agree with the winners of the Poppies this year? ~Hamburger Hamburger
There were a few nominees that I wish came in 1st place, but otherwise I would say for the most part, yes! I was also happy co-hosting the Poppies this year with fellow PHB staffer, Smart Bubbles. In previous years, I was busy with other things IRL and couldn’t participate much. Though I missed the nomination round this year, I want to say congratulations to the winners of this year’s Poppies!
What other potential nominees would you have liked to see, but didn’t happen? ~Hamburger Hamburger
Most of the winners are ones I would’ve nominated, but one missed nominee I want to give a spotlight to is “The Bizarre Lore of Poptropica” by Choopo for Best Fan Video (mild language warning). As a fan of the Theorists channels (maybe a future Pop-over 😉), I am all in for game lore! I’m curious to hear from you, where would this video place in the Poppies if it made it to the voting round?
