Ugly Platters

EL-I love taking requests. So today I’ll let Captain Crawfishes 15-19 and Shark Boys 2-18 to sky dive into my mouth. Dancing.

CC 15-19 and SB 2-18-*do as EL says*

EL-That’ll save us time. To the redundant updates.

Uncostumizable

On Cryptids Island, just like everywhere else on Poptropica, you can costumize a lot of different characters. But in some cases…

Yeesh! Why would you want to?

BLACK WIDOW

EL-I find his lack of cleanliness disturbing.

Things that go bump in the night

Well! It looks like I’m not the only one. We’re hearing a lot of chatter that Poptropicans who have ventured into Cryptids Island are finding it to be a pretty scary place. As an example…

This is the least creepy thing you’ll see in this house.

Are you ready to set foot into the most frightening Poptropica Island yet? We hope to see lots and lots of you on Cryptids Island this weekend!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH 20

EL-This guy isn’t ugly. He’s just so freaken’ demented. The ghost Crawfish 1 I suppose. What will we do for Captain Crawfish 20? O.0

Cryptids Island

We constantly find the Cryptid crawfish.

A skywriter flies overhead and spells out
‘CRYPTIDS ISLAND OPEN TO ALL’

But down below, it’s the seafood that has everyone’s attention.

EL: How does it feel to be the first one in your family to go a whole post without being nommed?
Captain Crawfish 14: I don’t know, I didn’t think I’d make it this far.
EL: You won’t survive for long…
CC 14: Huh?
Hijuyo: Hicoga! Lights please!
Hicoga: Yes sir!
(Scence changes to a candlelit dinner. CC 14 is tied to a chair.)
CC 14: Huh? Why am I tied up….?
(Hijuyo & Hicoga grab silverware. EL blows out candle.)
CC 14: Oh no! …Why do you eat me slowly?
EL: I’m gentle, Crawfish. I’d only eat Shark Boy viciously.
CC 14: I suffer nice deaths. 😀
EL: I could’ve eaten you now, right?
CC 14: Uh, to the POST!

Cryptids Island is now open to everyone!

The wait is over for non-Members. Cryptids Island is now open to all!

Head on over to Poptropica and start playing now!

RIP SHARK BOY

EL: Killing two authors with one post.
Hijuyo: I thought the shark tasted pretty good, actually.
Hicoga: Yeah. We should definitely put that on our menu more often.

Cryptids Island

Unfriendly woods

January 18, 2011January 18, 2011 Slanted Fish

Hijuyo: Hey guys! It’s Juyo&Crawfish here to remind – TUMBLR-STYLE – all you non-members that Cryptids Island comes out JANUARY 18 for us! Excited? Here’s one last sneak peek before you get to enter the island for realz!

Captain Crawfish 13: Y’know, since I’m probably the unluckiest of my family, and I’ve just been scared off by Cryptids Island so badly that I ran and hid back in my homeland, I’m not even gonna bother. In fact, you probably just brought me here to eat me.
Hijuyo: Aw, you’re no fun. :C
CC 13: -.o

Even more tales from the Cryptids

Here you have it: the moment where Cryptids Island became too frightening for me to continue, and I was forced to retreat to the friendly waters of Skullduggery Island. Seriously, these woods are terrifying!

Are you up to the challenge of Cryptids Island? Non-Members will able to play tomorrow!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Hijuyo: Really? “Too frightening” for you?
CC 13: I knew this was a bad idea…
Hijuyo: Yeah? Well, post’s over, guys! Next on our agenda… let’s see here… oh yes, that’s right, NOM THE CRAWFISHAY!
CC 13: You heartless people!
Hijuyo: |-)

CC 13: *backs into corner, cowers, and prepares to be nommed*
Hijuyo: Wow, you’re an easy one. Okay, kids, GET AT HIM!
<Large flow of PHB audience members trample on each others’ feet in a mad dash for Crawfish>

PHB guy 1: SATISFYING.
PHB guy 2: Dibs on that golden pegleg!
PHB guy 3: Mmm. Gotta love crawfish.

Cryptids Island, Daily Pop Sneak Peeks

Makeup tests on Tibetan mountaintops

January 15, 2011January 16, 2011 Rainfall

Perhaps you know about the failed gif on the PCB a couple of days ago. Well, no need to be curiously sitting and wondering what it was all about.

Animation re-test

(Please go here to see the gif, as I am unable to copy and paste nor save it)

Nothing like a make-up exam.

SHARK BOY

Although, if you examine if long enough, you may notice that the gif does stop after a while, in the same position it seemed to be eternally stuck in on the previous post. There is a strong chance the horse may be from Wild West island, as you immediately think horsies and pretty ponies when you think cowboys!

Notice how the horse looks awfully similar to a new Daily Pop picture?

There’s also several more Daily Pop pictures– check them out!

It looks a bit like Uno– but the title does say Jack. Perhaps a Poptropica form of Slap Jack, Black Jack, or even an entirely new game!

“Now, lerkey here, Creators. Yer release Cryptids Island sooner then planned and we dun have to report you to the Sheriff. Ev’rybody wins.”

These baddies don’t scare me! *whimper*

I don’t think I want to know either…

Hey, look! There’s Captain Crawfish, kids!

RCG: Oh, hi Captain Crawfish!
CC XII: Agggghhh!
RCG: Got a toothache?
CC XII: Youre…you’re one of those bratty PHB people who always like
to eat me!
RCG: It’s all cool. I don’t like seafood.
CC XII: Oh, very well…I guess I can tell you about the new post.

Tales from the Cryptids

Cryptids Island can be dangerous for an old salt like me. Sea legs I’ve got. Mountaineering arms, not so much. Good thing I found a guide to help me out.

Cryptids Island will be open to everybody next Tuesday, January 18!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Whispers from the shadows: Mmm…salt.
CC XII: Who said that??!?!
RCG: No one. It’s okay, Crawfishy.
CC XII: Arghhh, I’m not so sure about that.
RCG: Oh, well. It’s a shame I didn’t bring any salt myself, but I guess you’re already bloated from it, living on the seas and such. It was nice knowing you. I’m glad we could become acquaintances. …Ok guys! Come on in!
*rest of PHB team appears*
CC XII: B-b-but you said you didn’t like seafood!
RCG: I never said that the others didn’t like seafood…

*THUNDER CACKLES*

(lights flicker on an off until there is complete darkness)

Random PHB Member: Hey! That’s my finger! AGGGHH! SOMEONE’S EATING MY HAND!
Random PHB Member 2: I’m eating someone’s hand? *barf*
RCG: SOMEONE GET OFF OF ME BEFORE I SMACK THEM!
Random PHB Member 3: Where’s that Crawfish Dude? He’s gotten away!

CC XII: Heh heh… now, onto my next adventure!

More tales from the Cryptids

Whether an ocean or a lake — or “loch,” as some call it — I’m always more comfortable on a boat than on land. But during my trip to Scotland in Cryptids Island, I was the passenger and not a captain. I even found time to take pictures.

Did I find proof of the Loch Ness Monster?

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

RCG: *sigh* Notice the strange ridges along “Nessie”? They don’t exactly look like scales. I think you only saw truck tires or giant rusty mechanical gears.

CC XII: How’d you get here?!

RCG: Oh, I’m apart of the PHB posting a random update, and this is only written text. That means I can go where ever I want, as long as the words take me! You’re simply only typed up as well. Did I mention I’m a secret sorceress?

CC XII: That makes no sense…

Cryptids Island

Is it a coincedence?

January 7, 2011January 8, 2011 Green Boa

Green Boa: We interrupt ‘Cooking with Dr Hare’ for a breaking news report on Channel P.

Green Boa: Our first report, we’re going out of virtuality, into reality. As Cryptids island is right in the middle of it’s member only use, things in the real world start showing signs of cryptids. We go over to our correspondent, Captain ~~Pricklepants~~ Crawfish, to explain it all. Mr Fishy!

Captain Crawfish X: Thanks, Greenie. My report,

Cryptids in the news!

Did you hear the news? A couple weeks ago, a man in Kentucky saw a strange creature running around his farm at night. He shot and killed it, and discovered a bizarre, hairless creature with a pointed snout that walked on four legs.

Well, some people thought this might have been proof of the chupacabra — not that the man had had any bloodless goats turn up on his farm recently.

Unfortunately for monster hunters, a wildlife biologist examined the body and determined that the creature was probably a raccoon suffering from a disease that had caused all its hair to fall out. Oh well. The chupacabra may still be hiding somewhere out there!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Green Boa: Shame, racoons going to such desperate measures to become famous, and the Chupacabra is really shy. Anyway, join us for more news at 7:30, with The Ultimate Sleeping Pill: Shark Reveals all!, Scrambled Jersy Devil eggs, Early Poptropicans feeling ‘Outdated’, and much much more! Until then, it’s ta-ta from me. Ta-ta! Say ta-ta Mr Fishy!

(Silence…)

Green Boa: Uh, Fred, where was Mr Fishy when he gave the report?

Camera Man: Uh, Puerto Rico.

Green Boa: Uh-oh…

(In Puerto Rico…)

Captain Crawfish: Back off, dog face!

Chupacabra: Grrrrrrr!

Captain Crawfish: I’m not a goat! I’m not a chicken! I AM A FISH! ON THE NEWS THEY CALL ME MR FISHY!!!

(A dark figure rises frome the water nearby)

Nessie: Did someone say fish?!

Captain Crawfish: 😮 *faints*
