Hellos & Goodbyes

Welcoming Another Author: Mighty Gamer

Nope, this isn’t a guest post.

Hey, Poptropicans!

I’m Mighty Gamer, as some of you may know. You can call me Emily, MG, or just plain ol’ Mighty Gamer. Whatever works for you! Yes, the post title is correct. I am an author on this blog now, and I’d like to thank Slanted Fish and ultimately, everyone else on the team for the invite.

Now, to tell you a little about myself.

MightyGamer126

I’ve known about Poptropica since I was a young girl, when I was about 7. Though, I have taken a few breaks from the game at different points in my life. I won’t bore you with the details, but if you want to read my MPIP, you’re free to do that, too.

I’m a 15 year-old girl slightly obsessed with the internet. Ha, yeah, slightly. Let’s go with that. I like online gaming and Steam, reading, writing, and I enjoy drawing, even though I don’t do it that much. Oh yeah, and blogging. I guess you could say that’s why I’m here today! Well, and Poptropica, but that’s pretty obvious, I’m sure. 😛

I enjoy making friends and being friendly, so I hope I can be exactly that to everyone. I also have my own blog, Explore Collect Compete, and I work on Poptropica Tips. I made ECC on November 15, and was invited to Poptropica Tips last month [April]. I was apart of the MPB “squad”, too, but now the blog is inactive. At least for now.

And since this is a Poptropica blog, I’ll share some info on my characters. My main account MightyGamer126 has 57 islands completed, and is a member. My second account, DianatheHunter, is not a member, and has 24 islands completed currently. You can add them both, if you want. Both have the same names and signature look, which you can see above.

Well, I believe that’s all for this post! If you’d like to know a little more about me, feel free to comment any question you’d like below. I don’t bite, I promise. 😛

Your newest author and pizza lover [that had to be made known],

P.S. I’ve started a collection of short stories that will be shared with you all sometime soon! The first “journal entry” won’t be too long and detailed, but this is just the beginning! Stay tuned. 😉

DON’T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT! Whatever. Let’s just start the show. Welcome to round twenty-five of PMFM (Poptropican Meme Face Mondays)!

PMFM-Round25

The lucky meme-faced Poptropicans this week are Tough Coyote, LlamaBloggingTall Sword, mariannemccloskeymicah, and poptropicaandmore! And here are the memes:

Feel free to click on the images to view them in their full glory. 😛

And despite the extra meme faces, there’s even more memery this week! 😀

The first of these special treats is a birthday gift I made for my good friend CraftyPoptropican! Her birthday was last Friday, but feel free to wish her a late birthday if you stop by the PHC. I love this meme face, lol, it needs no more explanation. 😛

I also did another art trade with Yumi-Chan-Chu from on DeviantArt (also known as Silly Pelican). I quite like the end result on this one. 😛 If you’d like to check out her end of the trade, click here.

Want your own meme face?

Well, it’s simple. Comment on the most recent PMFM post (just choose the one of the list here). Be sure to follow the criteria below:

  • Very crucial: Wear the outfit you want to have in the meme face on Poptropica and keep it on for at least a week.
  • As mentioned, find the most recent PMFM post (it will be at the top of this list)
  • Include your Poptropican username in a comment.
  • Include the meme face you would like on your Poptropican in your comment (a link to an image of the meme is very preferred).
  • Post your comment and wait! (PMFM is operated on a first come-first serve basis, so your meme face will come after all of the ones before are released).
  • Just a note: You do not need to re-comment on newer posts if you haven’t gotten yours yet. Once I reply to your comment mentioning “You being added to the list,” then I have seen your comment and added it to my literal list, so yours will be made after each one before is made.

This completes round twenty-five of meme faces. Tune in next Monday for the next Poptropican Meme Face Mondays!

What do you think about this week’s meme faces? Comment below.

No PMFM This Week

Heyyo Poptropicans, it’s Ultimate iPad Expert here.

PMFM-NoEp.png

As this graphic and name of the post say, there will be no meme faces this week.

I really hate that I can’t get them out this week, but it’s just too much to handle today. It’s past 11 pm now and I haven’t had time to work on them at all today.

This is because of a combination of multiple things. For one, I literally forgot that today was Monday until late this afternoon. So basically, I was being a total moron. XD

Secondly, if anyone has missed it, we had another author leave today, the circle man himself, Spencer. I really wanted to give that post the spotlight today. In case you’re curious, we are working on getting some new authors at the moment, so expect those sometime soon.

Lastly, my life is super crazy right now. For one, most of my school is ending basically anytime last week and this week. So, I have a lot of work to finish up and catch up for finishing.

So, yeh. That’s basically why there is no PMFM today, once again, I apologize. Because I am not having PMFM this week, I will release both this week and next week’s meme faces next week, so you’ll get double the memes next week. Hopefully that makes you guys okay with the skip.

Anyways, keep staying awesome everyone and look forward to next week!

Contests, Hellos & Goodbyes

Take care, Poptropicans. (Also: Results for Cobalt’s Contest!)

Hey folks, it’s Cobalt, no, Spencer here, with some saddening news, and a lot of commas.

I was here for what, a month, a bit longer? Yeah, I know. I’m sorry if you all became somewhat attached to me. But listen, I’ll never forget this. Any of this. I’ll never forget being Cobalt, and I’ll never forget you. I’ll be 90 something, 100 or more if I’m lucky, on my deathbed and I promise, I swear, I’ll have this place in mind. You won’t know when I die, any of you online pals or fans, but if I were to get in a car crash tomorrow, I want you all to know I died loving you all.

Sorry for getting a tad personal, but I want my goodbye to be genuinely from the heart. I’ve always downright hated my environment. My school, my home life, my family hardships and so forth. I always wanted something just otherworldly to happen to me. Like, turn into The Flash or get a letter to attend Hogwarts. I never got struck by lightning, or an owl flinging himself against my window with an invitation to a wizard school. But, I did get an invitation to work here. The opportunity to work on a blog you’ve been a fan of for roughly half your life? Yeah, that’s pretty otherworldly.

So, why am I leaving? Why am I abandoning this community and game altogether? Well, there really is no way to word this without it sounding like a sob story, but here I go.

I need to work on myself, and pursue other interests and move on. I was the kid in 4th grade that blew his homework to play Big Nate Island on its release day, diss going outside on a hot Spring day to play Mythology Island, and beg my Grandma to buy me membership so I could obtain the limited edition golden renegade robot store item. I’m just not that kid anymore, and sadly, I got what I wanted, but what the young Spencer wanted, not the older Spencer. Does that make sense? At all? No? Okay.

Thank you for the privilege, Slanted Fish. HP, Sam, UIPE, Fishy, Blake, BT, Slip, and SD… thank you for being my buddy pal amigos who embraced my love for circles, and becoming my part time therapists. I won’t be on Discord anymore, nor the comment section. But, I plan on keeping contact with the staff of the PHB, and I’ll still be lurking this place. So, I’ll still be speaking with them, they’re my buddy pal amigos after all, and I’ll be happy to be in the Poppies, along with voicing Cobalt in Orb Legend. Because well, sometimes in order to move forward, you have to look back.

But, what’s next for me? Well, with the help of a buddy pal amigo, I will be attempting to make rap music. So, that’s pretty gnarly.

Guess what else? It’s been a week since the little PHB 24 million hits contest, and I promised to announce the winners. My co-author UiPE will be getting the accounts to the winners, so if you won, stay tuned. Anyway, here they are:

Never-Seen Ninja: Cuddly Knuckle

Rock and Roll All Knight: Funny Ant

More-Dred’s Mace: Some Guy

Pretty Pistol: Short Feather

Secret Samurai: Crazy Sinker

To read their entries, check out the comments section of the contest post: Top Five Unreleased Items, Unleashed! Great entries, guys. Do great things in life. All of you.

Play the game, don’t let the game play you.

Take care folks.

Pop 5: Bizarre Items You Forgot Existed in Poptropica!

Wihi folks,

Wow, that was a long title. Anyway, I was browsing through my inventory, when I saw some items I forgot even existed, so I rounded the top five most bizarre, and showed some people on the PHC, and every single person I showed had no idea they existed, so here I bring you Five Bizarre Items You Forgot Existed in Poptropica!

5. Booga Sha–man, that existed?

So, I’m sure you played Shark Tooth. There was a time you could obtain the Medicine Man’s costume as an item card. It’s funny, the character is shirtless, yet when you customize the shirt, it has to be his skin pigment, yellow. Anyway, this funny guy came from the Booga Shaman toy.

4. Some serious beef!

Screenshot at May 01 21-05-39.png

Seriously, when did this exist? Is it from a toy or something? A tiny man in a hamburger costume following me around is something I usually see in my nightmares, sheesh. This strange thing comes from the Hamburger Pocketeer, which, believe it or not, is a legitimate Poptropica toy.

3. I don’t remember this at SeaWorld…

Not only is there a Booga Shaman item card, you could also get an item card called Jump The Shark when you purchased the Shark Boy plush toy. Sadly, after the eradication of Shark Boy (now known as Shark Guy), Poptropica doesn’t list it in their list of toys anymore. Anyway, with this power, when you press the button anywhere in Poptropica, you can toss a fish and the Great Booga Shark will jump out and bite it.

2. Some serious UiPE & GH stuff right here!

Screenshot at May 01 21-06-34.png

On Poptropica, followers vary from dragons, to UFOs, to birds, but there exists a certain item card that allows you to have a follower of, well, yourself! Pretty gnarly, and this came from last year’s Daily Pop-In event although it was also an ad prize before that.

1. X–ruh roh, raggy?!

What a cool visor… where did it come from again? Oh yes, this was a members-only promo item for Virus Hunter Island given out before the island was released. Snazzy, and it comes with a power when you press spacebar too!

Well, that wraps up this top five list! Did you remember these items from Poptropica, or did you have no idea they existed? What other items do you consider worthy of this list? Let us know in the comments!
