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

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 thirty-four of meme faces. Tune in next Monday for the next Poptropican Meme Face Mondays!

Pop 5: Features That Make Poptropica Unique!

Spencer

Hoi, I’m Koi.

Poptropica already has so many awesome things, so let’s prepare for the New Poptropica by going over the best of the best!

5) It’s Uncommon For a Common Room

Unlike most kids’ games, our Poptropican plays through missions and quests solo. If we want some social interaction, we can hop into a common room (found on every Main Street) and play games with other kids!

4) A Pair of Photo Booths

Poses, handhelds, and loads of your favorite Poptropican characters in perfect image quality? Photo booths sure provide something fun to play with. Poptropica even sometimes makes themed photo booths, like the Mystery of the Map one.

3) A Multiplayer Multiverse

Common rooms are great, but sometimes, wouldn’t you rather have a blast with some personal friends? Well, there are infinite dimensions for that, which your Poptropican can access through a few simple numerical and alphabetical digits – Multiverse room codes!

Ha, the last one feels just like school. Ha.

2) Gigabytes of Photo Galleries

While you play any island, a few pictures will be taken with a caption. The best part about them isn’t the memories, but in my opinion – that you can customize the outfit you were wearing back then. Snazzy.

1) Roomy Realms

Just kidding. Pft, I’m not a fan.

1) Adventurous Advertisements

Honestly, this probably shocks some people with this choice. Advertisements for most kids games are flashy and un-interactive. About every two or three weeks we get a brand new ad. Yes, most of them are repetitive with quizzes, talking to characters, and just exploring – but some have actual fun unique quests. We haven’t had many of those recently, but they’ve been there, and it’s probably one of the best things Poptropica pulls off that its competitors don’t. Plus, there have been some pretty cool ad prizes as well.

That wraps it up for this Top 5 post! See you next time!

Contests, Livestreams, PHB Parties, Poppies

Join us for the Poppies 2016 Party and Livestream!

Slanted Fish

Hey Poptropi-ladies and Poptropi-gents,

You’ve nominated, you’ve voted… and very soon, it will be time to reveal the winners of this year’s Poptropica Community Awards, or as we affectionately call them, the Poppies!

Like last year, we’ll be celebrating with a party on the PHC while announcing the winners via a livestream. Everyone’s invited to attend, and here are the details below!

poppies16 party

As detailed in the invitation above, the party is this coming Tuesday, July 26, the date of the PHB’s anniversary – which had the most votes during the voting round!

It’s going to be the PHB’s 8th birthday, so I guess you could say that makes us the PH8 (because 8 looks like a B, get it? ha, ha). But despite our pH level, I promise it’ll be anything but basic.

The party begins at 7pm EST (that’s 6pm CST / 5pm MST / 4pm PST) on our chat, the PHC, and the livestream will also begin at around that time. If you live in a time zone that’s not listed, use a timezone converter to figure out what time that may be in your area (in some places, it may be Wednesday morning). We hope you can make it, or at least pop in at a later time!

The livestream link will be posted on the PHC during the party, so check there when the time comes if you’d like to watch along! Don’t worry about missing it, the video will still be viewable later. The awards presentation will be hosted by us PHB authors, so be sure to check it out if you have the chance!

At the same time, you can also chat with Poptropicans on our Poptropica Help Chat on Discord, meeting up in Multiverse party rooms and having a good time! We’ve seen a lot of awesome Poppies formal outfits from many you guys, and now’s your chance to dazzle everyone on the big day! Dress up your best in tuxes, ties, dresses – and of course, the 8th birthday balloon (if you have it) to celebrate the PHB’s 8th birthday! It’s going to be a poppin’ time, so see you there!

If you have any questions at all, comment below and we’ll answer them for you!

My Place in Poptropica

My Place in Poptropica: Young Singer

Slanted Fish

This is the My Place in Poptropica story of Young Singer, a young and enthusiastic Poptropican who frequently comments on the PHB. See below for details on sending in your own MPIP!

mpip young singer

Hey, PHB Poptropicans! I’m Young Singer, and my username is NachaaRules! (With the exclamation mark, yes. Don’t judge! 😀 ) Anyway, this is my story. Enjoy! :3

| How I Found Poptropica… and Lost It.

For me, it started when I was talking with a boy at school in kindergarten. He liked a game called Poptropica, while all the other kids liked another game site. Anyway, I decided to try out Poptropica, and… I fell in love with it instantly.

I forgot the username I chose, but I completed 6 Islands on my first account, and I had at least 45 friends on there. I played Poptropica so much that I got in trouble for doing just that!

Then, summer came, and it felt like I was in Poptropica heaven. I completed 14 more Islands! My main costume looked like a normal girl… brown hair… some freckles… blah. I did a lot of “MiniQuests” like Shrink Shot, the Sumo game (Prepare for Impact!), and so on.

However, after a few years, school got harder, and so did finding the time and effort to play, and so… I basically gave up on Poptropica for a while.

| I’m Back! / Finding the PHB

One day in third grade, our teacher let us have “ indoor recess”. I went on the computer, and at that moment, I remembered Poptropica. I decided to make a new account. I loved to sing back then, so my Poptropican’s name became yours truly… Young Singer.

I couldn’t figure out how to beat Spy Island. So, I looked it up online, and I came across something called the “Poptropica Help Blog”. And because of the PHB, I gained my 15th medallion! From then on, I was a fan of the blog.

After half a year of commenting on the PHB with no WordPress account, I made one called Unicornz100 (don’t ask why…). I went by many names… too many, in fact. And that was the beginning of Young Singer. To this day, I still like to comment on the PHB.

Yes, I know this sounds a little like a fairy tale, but who cares? Let’s get on with it!

| Why I Love the PHB

First of all… the PHB staff (authors) are so generous… they always answer your questions and keep you updated on Poptropica news! Then, there’s the commenters. Shout-outs to:

Popular Wolf , Muddy Kid ^_^ , Lucky Wing, Some Guy, and every awesome commenter out there!

All the support is amazing, I can always count on you guys to help us. I can’t start chants, but I’ll do it anyway. PHB! PHB! PHB! No? Fine…

And lastly, I love the art! The PHB’s DeviantArt collection is amazing!

| Present Time: Who I Am

Now, I’m just a random commenter on the PHB, someone you probably have no idea about.

Until now, as you read this. So… I am 11 and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE art, food, and Poptropica.

I also like to make jokes. Sometimes. Mostly, they’re jokes about myself… I cri everitiem. (poetry book falls from the sky, into my hands) {reads} “I cri everitiem ~ Young Singer” Wow. They make books about EVERYTHING. That’s why I love ’em!

I’m about to move on to middle school. Oh, wait! I’m not! I’m getting homeschooled until high school. Yay me. I’m also a book freak. Once a book is in my face, it STAYS in my face. Seriously. I think I have a few pages up my nose. The doctors call it “a cold”. I think not. Too far? I can keep going. I also love cooking, but so far, all I can make is scrambled eggs and PB&J. I’m learning how to make a cake, thanks to Mom. I also am a big anime lover. Naruto, Attack on Titan, you name it! I used to play a game called “Animal Jam” when I forgot about Poptropica. Until… I got hacked on that game.

Well, it’s time to say goodbye. So… here it goes…

Farewell, Poptropicans! (bows as flowers hurdle towards me)

“AHH! ROSES! THORNS!”  (runs offstage)

(mic drop)

Stay poppin’, Poptropicans!
