Announcing the winners of the PHB Valentine’s Special raffle!

Blake

Valentine's-Special

What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, and true to my word, the raffle to get a supporting role in our 2016 Valentine’s Day Special is now closed. I received WAY more entries than I thought I would. Anyway, it’s time to announce our winners!

And, since there were lots of responses (and since even numbers are WAY better than odd numbers), I added a sixth spot in the special! That’s correct! SIX people are now going to be able to brag to their friends that they were featured on the PHB to their friends, instead of the five I specified. Without further ado, let’s begin! And the lucky random winners are….

Popular Wolf

WimpyKidFan

Ylimegirl

Skinny Ice

Brave Sky

Strange Monster

Congratulations to our six winners! Go brag to your friends, you’re going to Hollywood appearing in a PHB special! Look out for your big breaks on February 14th! Yes, this special will all be one part, due to the sheer amount of audacity this contest had.

Once again, congratulations to our winners! Well, that’s all for now, Poptropicans! Stay popping.

Over on the Daily Pop, we’re seeing some sneak peeks of nature! Not sure what all these trees and huts are about just yet, but at least one of these pictures seems to be for the next Poptropica graphic novel. Plus, it looks like the Home Island revamp mentioned earlier is getting more polished, with a shop building on a ship! (For more, check out our Daily Pop Sneak Peeks Archive!)

Hut and Stuff: Quit your jibber jabber.
Under Construction: Open during renovations.
South Pacific: This is some enchanted evening.
Hands Up: The end of the line.
Old Growth: It’s a jungle out there.

Through Twitter and the Viewing Glass…

Slippery Raptor

Hey, guys! Slip here. Get the pun? It’s time for a new post!

There’s a new ViewMaster advertisement in Poptropica Main Streets! It previously appeared on the mobile app then, online—don’t worry, both of the ads aren’t the same. They have different prizes for players, so let’s take a look!

The ViewMaster ad features an advertisement room where you can enter and get your prizes. Simply go in and you’ll find yourself inside a place similar to a planetarium.

Now, follow the blue arrows pointing up. It’ll lead you to the first prize: the 360 Teleporter Power. When you’re using this power, your player wears the ViewMaster and travels through several different Poptropica islands, without leaving the room! (Challenge: If you can name all of the islands, you’re awesome!)

To get to the next prize, you can go to the far right of the room until you come across some asteroids and a UFO. There you’ll receive your next prize: the Island Warper Power! With this power, you will warp to an island—like Night Watch or Wild West—you’ll stay for a while and warp back to the place you’re at. Seems fun, right?

Wait, there’s more! You can even try answering the quiz about animals or even try watching their advertisement on the giant ViewMaster in the middle.

If you have nothing left to do, you can exit the advertisement through the rocket at the end. 🙂

On the other hand, there are some new Twitter tidbits from Poptropica!

Poptropica shared this vine featuring the animation of the Monster Duck Hunt Carnie. Really scary monster. (Need any help with Monster Carnival? Click here!)

Poptropica also shared a photo of their bookshelf at the Poptropica HQ! See any familiar books? Do you have some of them? Comment it down below!

Last but never the least, Poptropica also posted this photo with the hashtags: #truth and #Poptropica. Do you agree with this?

And that’s all of the news and things you need to know! Did you miss me? I hope you did! Did you enjoy this post? Don’t forget to leave a comment!

I’m back!

HPuterpop

Hi Gs,

For those who don’t know, I left the blog yesterday – completely personal reasons. This doesn’t matter, though: I’m back. 😀

I’d rather not go into the details of my rash decision, it was done out of anger, and I’ve reconsidered since then.

Look forward to a new post series soon. 😀

PHB Possibility Survey!

HPuterpop

Hi Gs,

Quick post to let you know that I just recently launched a survey for you, the readers of the PHB, about a possible endeavor. If you can take the time to fill it out, it would be super cool – it’ll only take about a minute. Help shape the future of the PHB!

Click here to take the survey!

Update: HERE’S A FOLLOW-UP IN WHICH THE MAJORITY OF YOU GUYS FREAKED OUT ABOUT THIS POSSIBILITY. (Please take the poll before reading this!)

Here’s what I have to say about this possibility to clear some things up-

  • This event will probably take place in north NC.
  • It will happen sometime next year.
  • If it is a success, we will probably have more of them in other areas of the world.

This is all in the preliminary stages, so don’t jump to any conclusions. We want to make this awesome as we possibly can – so stay tuned!

TAFN.
