They Know Around The Boardwalk

July 6, 2012July 6, 2012 MT

Hola, Poptropicans! With the recent release of the Summer-anticipated island, Wimpy Boardwalk, members got to experience it first hand. And the Creators exposed the first ten players who figured out the Boardwalk first. The island could be pretty tough to figure out independently without a guide (just a little warning for the non-members waiting for it)! And so if you hit a brick wall, you could always turn to the official PHB guide or video playlist! And here goes the list. Congratulations to..

Wimpy Boardwalk Island

Summer “Board”om?

July 4, 2012July 4, 2012 Shaggy Tornado

Then “Walk” on over to Wimpy Boardwalk, because it is OUT…for members. (I’m bad at jokes huh? Points for effort? 😀 )

There is a demo out for non-members though. Once you land on the Boardwalk, talk to Greg. He’ll tell you how the game he’s playing, Himalayan Hurl is rigged. When he takes out his money, it flies away into the hands of two teenagers who run off with it. Follow Greg as he runs after them. Catch up with him at the Boardwalk Arcade and says the teens disappeared somewhere. Go right to the beach and talk to the guy selling Souvenir keychain photos. Tell him you don’t have any money and he’ll let you take a photo for free. (You get a photo for your photo album once you complete this action). He gives you sunblock, which you’ll be able to use for this guy once the full island releases.

While you’re there, you’ll see a seagull carrying a keychain! Jump onto the trash can and when the seagull passes over you, jump and get the keychain. See a striking resemblance to the guy with the metal detector? You can give it to him when the full island releases. Meanwhile, go back to the Boardwalk arcade and see Greg tell you that the kids are underneath the boardwalk taunting you with the money, like so:

If you try to go underneath the boardwalk, they run away with the money. So you’ll have to find a way to get the money without them running away. CUE END OF DEMO if you go to the beach or the Boardwalk Rides. But this place will play a role in your quest:

Wimpy Boardwalk Trivia!

1) There is a handheld laser gun in the common room! But you don’t get to keep it 😦 *sigh*

2) Your character gets to wear SHOES!

3) This is the first time the Creators’ have released an island out of the blue without a countdown.

~~~

The island will be released to everyone on July 18! At least it’s a shorter wait! 🙂

Happy 4th of July for those in the US! And Happy Wednesday for those that aren’t!

There Can Be Only One Winner…

Ha! Bet you thought I was talking about Poptropolis Games, huh?

😀

Well, I’m not. You see, humans tend to have self-centered thoughts at times. This is no exception for Shark Boy. For example, if someone were to declare him “Best Shark”…

Well, I bet he’s thrilled. He made a whole post about it, just to get the point across. According to Shark Boy, “I’d like to thank the little people.”

Did anyone happen to notice that Shark Boy is, ah, smiling? Yes, smiling! Well, anyone would be smiling if they won a contest. Do you think Shark Boy is the best shark, or do you think there’s a better shark in town, uh, Poptropica?

And, if you are having trouble with Poptropolis Games, and you fear that the one winner can’t be you, remember to check out our Island Help. There, you can find the Poptropolis Games Guide (or click HERE) written by PHB author Icy Comet and you can be the one and only champion! Just keep in mind that there’s no tribe like Pathfinders. 😉

Poptropolis Games Island, Tribes

The supremacy is etched into…

June 26, 2012December 1, 2012 Brave Tomato

Brave Tomato: The tribes have been going at it in the Poptropolis Games for weeks, now. *dramatic music* Many Poptropicans were able to gain the medallions, but some by luck, won just by one place higher than another tribe. But apparently, a certain red robot tribe gained that supremecy overall…

Audience Member: Oh cut it out with all the dramatic stuff, BT!

Brave Tomato: What? Come on!

Audience Member: *chants* Humor! Humor! Humor!

Brave Tomato: Alright, alright, sheesh! I’ll just show the Creator’s post!

Which tribe reigns supreme?

Now that Poptropolis Games has been available for a few weeks, millions of Poptropicans have chosen their tribes and competed for glory. But do you want to know which tribe’s representatives have the best overall scores?

Go on, take a guess. We’ll wait for you.
Okay. The top-performing tribe in Poptropica is….
…………………

The Nanobots! Congratulations to everyone who’s flying the flag of the red robots!
If you’re not a Nanobot, don’t worry. You can always help your tribe reach the mountaintop by playing, and winning, Poptropolis Games! Visit Poptropica now to play!

CAPTAIN CRAWFISH

Brave Tomato: Where’s the drumroll during all this? The Creators were dramatic there, cause of all those “…”s to reveal the Nanobots as the highest scoring tribe! But wait! Did nanobots rig the system…

Audience Member: Don’t discriminate! I’m a Nanobot tribe member and we won fair and square!

Brave Tomato: Alright, if you say so. 😐 I’m a Black Flags member, and I just hope that I’m not the lowest on that list.

Audience: So do we!

Brave Tomato: Glad to see we’re on the same page with this!

*the audience member who said that BT discriminated throws a tomato with the Nanobot logo on it*

Brave Tomato: Okay, maybe not all of us, but just hope, okay? Alright.

BT out!

Thunder wonders

Do you have what it takes to make it to the “Thunder Volt” high scores list with Greg Heffley, Is An Idiot (uhhh…), Sonic, Chris, Billy, and the rest?

We don’t even know what Thunder Volt is yet, but we’re asking anyway. Maybe it’s an arcade game on Wimpy Boardwalk. Maybe it’s the name of one of Super Thunder’s evil plans (just kidding). What do you think?
