Popspiracy: Conflicting Islands, Time, and the Blimp

(This is a guest post by Happyhappy760,ย a PHB readerย here to share some Poptropica thoughts. Keep in mind that what sheย presents is only theory, not to be taken as fact. If you have a Popspiracy, see below for details on guest posting! Enjoy! โ€“SlantedFish)

Hey guys, it’s Happyhappy760 here, and some of you may of seen me from the PHC or around the PHBย comments section. Please don’t visit my blog. (It’s dead.)

Anyway, I’m sure that all of us sometime or another have visited these particular islands: Time Tangled, Monkey Wrench, and Early Pop. Now, there’s something in common between all these islands… Guess!

They all play a part in the beginning of Poptropica! (If you got thatย wrong, wamp, wamp, waaamp. Unless you found another thing in common. But that’s not what we’re talking about.) Monkey Wrench Island shows how the blimp was made, Early Poptropica shows were Poptropica all began, and Time Tangled allows you to go back in time to before Poptropica was created.

Part 1: The Conflicting Timeline of Islands

So, you may beย thinking,”Happy, you need to tell us what this is about!!” Okay, I’ll tell you. This is where everything comes together. First, think about theย islands and time. Think back to when there were like, three islands. (Ahh, the good old days… sorta.) There was NO Monkey Wrench.

We started with Early Pop, with no blimp at first, but the blimp later appeared when other islands showed up.ย The pilgrims settled down in Ameriโ€“ ahem, Poptropica. But in Monkey Wrench, the monkeysย make the blimp.

Thenย in Time Tangled, you go back before Early Pop began. And Early Pop started in 1982, according to the pilgrims’ sign! In Time Tangled, Leonardo Da Vinci was born in 1452. According to the Shark Tooth museum, Professor Hammerhead died at 77! 1982 was NOT 77 years ago! (Although at some point it will be. But right now, it’s not.) So if all these timelines are getting mixed up, Poptropica is basically one big Time Tangled Island!ย But… there’s a catch.

Part 2:ย The Blimp is a Time Machine, and Poptropica was established as an entity following the existences ofย ancient world civilizations.

The blimp. It could be a time machine in itself! It allows you to go to different times! Even in Poptropica’s earlier days, you had the blimp, but what if you were from the future, and the blimp took you back in time?! As Poptropica evolved into more and more islands, and SUIs, your blimp made its way back to the future! In the future, where it came from, Monkey Wrench Island was there, and maybe that’s where the blimp came from.

Now, notice howย Time Tangled goes back in timeย beforeย Poptropica’s settlers settled down (when you use the mini time device to travel to ancient civilizations). But look at real world events, people! There were people in ancient civilizations beforeย America became a country! It could be the same with Poptropica! (Just that Poptropica sort of replicated real world events.)

Also, maybe the reason you didn’t use your blimp to get around Time Tangled Island is just because it’s an island. It’s too big to fit in the lab, and it’s too big to take back to certain times. Besides, if you took it back to those other time periods,ย some Poptropicans would think it was an enemy spirit or something, and destroy it. Then how wouldย you get to the different islands?

Part 3: Crusoe and the Grecian warrior on Shark Tooth

And remember that warrior on Shark Tooth? Maybe Crusoe from Monkey Wrench is his descendant! ‘Cause what if the warrior hung onto your blimp and follow you to Shark Tooth?

I’m sorry, that doesn’t make sense. Kind of. But we don’t know where Crusoe went after we landed on Home Island. Maybe he went to Shark Tooth (he does have that jungle aesthetic) and settled there.ย So… yeah. I’m getting ahead of myself.

(My Photoshop paint job. It could be worse! :P)

But there’s one thing I can’t figure out… If the Early Pop pilgrims are the earliest settlers of Poptropica, then who are these guys who supposedly come before their time?

If you can figure this one out, good for you.ย But that’s my Popspiracy, and I hope you enjoyed!

PHB Specials, Pop-over

PHB Pop-over Special: Over the Garden Wall

Hey Poptropicans! Hop over the garden wall with me, it’s time for another PHB Special!

For fans of the Cartoon Network mini-series Over the Garden Wall, I hope you like this little Poptropica crossover featuring the main adventurers, Greg and Wirt! If you like their Poptropica costumes, you can use the ASGs below or read further for how to get their costumes.

otgwpop

(If you’re not familiar with ASGs, see our Avatar Studio Gift page.)

GREG (ASG: otgwGreg)

There may not be a teapot you can wear on your head yet, but the Braised Basher’s mug-hat comes pretty close, and you can get it with the WKF_ASG_BraisedBasher ASG or the costume on the Poptropica app’s Store (but not online). Greg’s adorable green overalls come from Ned Noodlehead on Super Power Island, and his satchel comes from Octavian on Mystery of the Map.

For the whole package, just ASG otgwGreg!

WIRTย (ASG: otgwWirt)

Wirt’s costume is actually pretty simple. The pointed red hat may not be all that pointed, but at least its fits the head snugly – and you can grab it off a guy from the Mali Empire on Time Tangled Island. As for the navy blue button-up, you can find it on Captain Boomer on SOS Island.

For the entire ensemble, just ASG otgwWirt!

There you have it! If you’ve never heard of Over the Garden Wall, it’s a cute animated series that can be completed in less than two hours, and it’s about two boys lost in the woods โ€“ it’s a good show for all ages, and one that we recommend here at the PHB!

Anyway, that concludes this little OTGW x Poptropica crossover! Off into the unknown we go!

Popspiracy: The Origin of Poptropica

(This is a guest post by Happy Lobster, Shaky Skunk, and Tall Cactus, PHB readersย here to share some Poptropica thoughts. Keep in mind that what theyย present is only theory, not to be taken as fact. If you have a Popspiracy, see below for details on guest posting! Enjoy! โ€“SlantedFish)

popspiracy

Whatโ€™s popping, Poptropicans? Happy Lobster, Shaky Skunk and Tall Cactus here, and today weโ€™re going to be sharing our mega theories about the origins of Poptropica. HL and Shakyย were writing separate theories for the PHB, but since they were both similar, they decided to combine the posts together. Then Tall Cactus wanted to help, since sheโ€™s basically the queen of theories. Well, that being said, letโ€™s get started!

The Realms Theory

Hey there, itโ€™s HL here with an immense Popspiracy that Iโ€™m surprised no-one has brought up before. You may know me from Discord, the Forums, the comments of PHB posts and the blogs I work on, which includes my blog, HLPB, and the others I work on: PSB, ECC and Clawtropica. Usually, Iโ€™d save things like this just for the blogs I actually work on, but as I said before, itโ€™s immense. Mind-blowing. Tremendous. Everyone should know about it. So, letโ€™s get started! Just make sure that you ainโ€™t feeling sleepy right now, because this Popspiracy has about 900 words.

To begin with, my Popspiracy is aboutโ€ฆ Poptropica. And not a particular concept in the game, but the concept of itself. It delves deeper and deeper into the roots of Poptropica, revealing its greatest secret. The true origin of Poptropica, whereas Shaky will describe each possible aspect of the beginning. This does follow the amazing theories of Poptropica by both Koi and Purple Claw. So just to sum things up, Koiโ€™s theory was about the fact that Poptropicans are possibly descended from aliens, and Purple Clawโ€™s theory was about the fact that Poptropica could possibly be one of the bubble-like orbs we see when we visit the realm ofโ€ฆ well, Realms. Feel free to probe deeper into these theories via the links if you want to see the exact foundations of these theories.

So with that out of the way, my question is: Why, when a new Poptropican is born, is it that they enter a world that is exactly the equivalent of all other Poptropicans’ worlds, with the same characters, landscapes, and quests, and yet Poptropicans never encounter each other (apart from Multiverses) in the same world?

The answer isnโ€™t simple. But letโ€™s walk the road thatโ€™ll lead to the ultimate answer. Firstly, as PC says, the general world of Poptropica is a Realm. Poptropica isnโ€™t endless, like the other Realms, but it is ever-expanding, and itโ€™s probably as large โ€“ if not even larger โ€“ than the space in each Realm weโ€™ve bothered to explore.

So what if โ€“ there are multiple, individual Realms of Poptropica? Read onย to hear our ideas!
