Hello everyone! I wanted to say we are getting so many submissions and they are great, Thank you! Also, the release date for the next issue of the magazine is January 11, 2014 (and we’ll be releasing every two months after that)! The deadline to send in submissions for this issue is January 9, 2014 at 11:59PM CST.

We would love to receive more entries for Island Ideas (what kind of islands would you like to see on Pop?), Fan Art (drawings, poems, comics, etc!), and Fashion (send us some Multiverse or common room pics to show what the current trends are!). Think of your ideas and send them in! You never know, you might make the magazine!

Hello everyone! HPuterpup and I are reviving the PHB’s Poptropican’s 911 magazine series! It will be posted every 2 months on the 2nd week of the month, and we would love to include your artwork, stories, etc.! Here’s what the 911s may contain (note the bolded parts for reader submissions!):

  • Ask PHB: readers can ask questions about Poptropica via e-mail to the 911 staff, and we’ll select about 3 of them to publish per month
  • Competitions & Multiverse parties (occasional)
  • Stories: readers can submit their own Poptropica fanfiction/short stories
  • Island Ideas: readers submit their own ideas for islands they would like to see in the game
  • Easter Eggs: Poptropica tricks & secrets that maybe you didn’t know about, including new sneak peeks from HP
  • Fashion: What costumes and clothing styles are trending on Poptropica? Send in your costume or some Multiverse/common room pics of the latest trends!
  • Fan Art: reader submissions of Poptropica-themed poems, comics, drawings, puzzles, computer graphics, songs, or other creative work

Please send all submissions via email to [email protected], and we will do our best to accommodate your entry or entries into our magazine issues! To browse through the Poptropican’s 911s of the past, check out our Magazines page! As this is a community-based project, your participation counts in making this the best it can be.

We look forward to seeing your creativity and publishing it for other Poptropica fans to enjoy! It’s our way of starting off the new year for everyone at the PHB. 🙂

Stay cool! I know I will! TI out!

Stop by for Issue #9!

…and check out the amazing talent that Poptropicans all over the planet have put out there for the rest of our community. Awesome. 😛

Our ‘Poptropica Poll’ widget to the right side has been updated! The current question asks, ”What do you think of Poptropica’s membership?” (Now’s your chance to let the Poptropica Creators know just what you think of this major game update!)

January 2010’s poll question read, ”How long have you been playing Poptropica?” Here are the results:

Option | Votes | Percentage
2+ years – Experienced | 1,264 | 47%
Almost 2 years! | 420 |
Almost a year! | 281 |
2 – 5 months | 168 |

Wow, looks like the vast majority of us are old-timers here! According to the poll, around half of those who voted have been around Poptropica for over 2 years. Nice. 🙂

Live. Laugh. Love.
Because life is cheesy!

My Poptropica Help
You may have noticed that we have several different Poptropica Help communities (blog, forums, chatroom, etc.) We have now gathered them on one main homepage (with our own domain!), which can be found at…

http://poptropicahelp.tk

MPH (short for My Poptropica Help; not miles per hour, silly xD) groups our many Poptropica Help sites at one spot so browsing the web can be easier for you. We’ve also listed official Poptropica links, which bring you to places like the Creators’ Blog.

Also included are Poptropica Help Tools such as The Multiverse Project or the Poptropica Help Toolbar. Best of all, little icons and short descriptions relating to each link are there to guide you in choosing which utility YOU would like to use!

After all, it is called My Poptropica Help. In fact, if MPH has really helped you, don’t forget to help spread the word with one of our banners! We hope each and every Poptropica link is a good one for you. :mrgreen:

Poptropican’s 911: Issue #7

Beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep…

Hold on a second, what’s going on here? A malfunction with our systems?

Nope, but issue #7 of the PHB’s Poptropican’s 911 monthly newsletter has arrived! Don’t look so bewildered – any true Poptropica fan would want to read this. 🙂

Redirect to Issue #7

Also, our ‘Poptropica Poll’ widget to the right side has been updated with the question, ”What do you think of the upcoming Counterfeit Island?” Move your cursor over there and submit your opinion!

November 2009’s poll question read, ”Did you pay any real money for Poptropica merchandise?” Here are the results:

Option | Votes | Percentage
No, I did not spend real money for Poptropica products. | 1,501 | 76%
I bought credits to spend at the Poptropica Store. | 292 | 15%
I bought Poptropica T-shirts from Zazzle.com. | 65 | 3%
I bought device skins from SkinIt.com. | 58 | 3%
I bought Larger Than Life stickers at LTLprints.com. | 53 | 3%

Total votes: 1,969

The majority says they do not spend real-life money on Poptropica products. Looks like the Poptropica Creators are going to have to keep working at it *cough*LOWERPRICESPLEASE*cough* if they want more purchases on their stuff! xD

Hope you’ll enjoy reading our 911 this month, and maybe even be inspired to submit your own entries! Congratulations to everyone who entered something for the 911, whether it made it or not. 🙂
