I logged in today to find a “problem loading quiz 13366”. Same error occurred when I logged into some of my other accounts. (Thanks to Spotted Dragon for the picture.)
If you’ve checked the Daily Pop today, you’ll understand why this is…
As it seems, new pop quizzes are to come – and they look pretty sweet considering the call-backs to some awesome islands as you can see above.
Anyway, this post is just a quickie, so tell me in the comments what you think about pop quizzes in general. If you are a fan, be sure to check out the PHB’s Pop Quizzes page, listing practically all of the possible questions and answers that currently exist!
Skeletal: Looks like something you’d see on Tatooine.
Guano: Doesn’t it bug you when you step in this stuff?
Time to Crate: Thank Old Man Murray for the measurement.
Nest Egg: We were hoping for an empty nest.
Spiderland: Good morning captain.
Chair Force: That’s great, kid! Don’t get cocky.
Deserted: Monument valley, this isn’t.
In Between: We can fill this with our imaginations.
Between Two Ferns: Where’s the other one?
Hello: Is it me you’re looking for?
Run to the Border: You haven’t lived until you’ve had a street taco.
Hall of Heroes: Meet the stars of our trek.
Get Animated: Things are about to get expressionistic.
Mega: Coming soon to a desktop near you.
Eggscellent: You’re a shell of your former self.
Fly My Pretties: Pry open the third eye and fly.
Among the sneak peeks, it looks like we’ll be traversing strange lands including a desert landscape, mushroom kingdom, a place with galactic food stands (Main Street?), and more. It seems we’ll also be stealing an Egg from a big bird’s nest and encountering some interesting creatures.
For more info on Galactic Hot Dogs Island, check out our GHD trivia page! Remember, also, that you can always browse the entire Daily Pop collection on the PHB’s Sneak Peek Archive.
Nestled among all the GHD pics is this sneak peek for the final installment of Arabian Nights Island, which features the spire with the telescope stand seen in Episode 1, but this time, night has fallen!
Bad Moon Rising: The days are hot but the nights are sizzling.
Finally, since the Creators will be taking a well-deserved break for the holidays, they’ve prepared a “Way Back Week” of peeks from December 26 to January 5, featuring throwback images from years ago. I especially like all the designs for E. Vile, the villain of the Legendary Swords mini-quest!
Way Back Week: Many versions of E.Vile for Legendary Swords.
Way Back Week: Bridging cultures on Red Dragon Island.
Way Back Week: Architectural plans for Ghost Story Island.
Way Back Week: Binary Bard’s dreams come to life on Super Villain Island.
Way Back Week: The robot revolution begins on Game Show Island.
Goats Beware: One more throwback. We’re back for real tomorrow.
Again, be sure to check out the PHB’s Daily Pop Sneak Peek Archive (under the Cool Stuff tab) for a complete collection of Daily Pop images with their titles and captions, all the way from when they first began in November 2010 and updated monthly. Stay popping, Poptropicans! 😀
With the new Daily Pop sneak peek archive on the PHB just recently being released, I figured I should put together a compilation of the best Daily Pops ever released (in my opinion). Check out the new page here, where the usual sidebar is removed so you can enjoy the whole collection better! 😀
Zapped: A jarring circumstance for this little fella.
After Hours: Concept art for a brand-new island.
So, what’s your favorite Daily Pop in this list? Tell me in the comments. 😀
This topic has been a recurring theme throughout the years, mostly because there has been no avail. If any of you remember, Legendary Swords was a mini-quest released years ago (you can still get it from the store). Legendary Swords ended with a cliff hanger and it was to be continued. But it wasn’t.
In Mocktropica, you can find a piece of paper while searching through a trash bin that shows the villain of Legendary Swords. The paper is crumpled up, hinting that the series will never be continued.
However, Daily Pops before and after Mocktropica’s release had been very suggestive of an underground theme, which is very Legendary Swords-esque. Those sort of tapered off until there was no more mention of them — but with one recent Daily Pop, they seem to have risen again.
The title of the Daily Pop above is “Crystallized” — but the most interesting thing is the description — “The caves have come around again.” Are the Creators acknowledging the seemingly forgotten underground DP posts? If so, are these posts related to Legendary Swords?
And have you noticed all the Legendary things happening lately? Thanks to CaptainSpencer for giving me this lead. Tell me your thoughts in the comments. 🙂

Creators’ Blog updates
You may have noticed that two new features have been added the Creators’ Blog recently. The first is a search bar, entitled “Search the Poptropica Blog”, which they haven’t had in a long time. You can now find it right under the Poptropica Merchandise ad in the sidebar.
Underneath the search bar is a new tag cloud entitled “Popular Posts” — the most popular tags include “Books”, “Comics”, “Your Dream Island”, and “Lego Cuusoo”. Neat! 😀
How many more episodes this year?
That was the question that PHB viewer Slippery Raptorasked the Creators via their Twitter. They replied with an unsure answer, but something to think about.
First of all, we don’t really know whether the Creators meant episodes or actual islands/episodic adventures. 6 – 12 islands is a bit much considering how we’re halfway through the year already.
The original question was “How many more islands will come this year since islands will be in episodes?”. He was asking how many episodic adventures would be completely released, forming an island. But, the question can be perceived to be asking how many episodes will be released. Either way, we have something puzzling.
We know for sure that there will be in total 8 episodes from the Survival and Mission Atlantis series. That said, it still doesn’t add up to 12. Could this mean that there will be more episodic adventures in the future? I’ve theorized before that there wouldn’t be any more episodic adventures after Survival and MA, but I’m starting to have doubts. Is this a good thing? Will we ever fully return to islands?
And what’s this about unexpected tech problems? That’s sort of worrying also.
Poptropican Creators Wallpaper
Remember the Poptropican Portraits Season 1 Finale Livestream, in which I drew three out of four of creators that you guys voted the highest as Poptropicans? While that is a mouthful, I still didn’t finish the last creator, Tracey West. So, I made a speed art video on my YouTube channel so you guys can get a taste of the making of her as well.
Afterwards, I put all of the creators that I had drawn together into a cool desktop wallpaper that you can view and download below. I hope you enjoyed the livestream!
You can also find more Poptropica fan art and more in the newly-released issue (#17!) of the PHB magazine, The POPCORN – just click here! 😀
