PHB holiday 2015

This weekend, the PHB hosted our 3rd annual PHB Holiday Party for all Poptropicans! Many of you even came a couple hours early, and we had a blast hanging out and playing Doodle Race on the PHB chat, the PHC (which, by the way, is always open!).

We filled about five Multiverse rooms, with lots of games being played and candy canes being thrown in the air on Poptropica. It also looked like many of you have been enjoying our Avatar Studio Gift, as we saw from your costumes!

Overall this party was a great success and I’m glad so many people came to spread holiday cheer! Those who came had a chance to talk to many of the PHB authors (we missed you, Slippery Raptor! *cries*). Again, remember that the PHC is always open for Poptropicans to hang out and chat about whatever. It’s a great place to meet other Poptropicans and occasionally PHB staff!

Thanks to all who came, and I wish all of you a belated Merry Christmas and early Happy New Year from all the authors here at the PHB! 😀

PMFM (Poptropican Meme Face Mondays)

Poptropican Meme Face Mondays: Holiday Special

Ultimate iPad Expert

Heyyo Poptropicans, it’s Ultimate iPad Expert here. Today’s episode of PMFM is a special one. Christmas has just passed and the new year is close ahead.

ElfSmile

It’s time for a special Holiday Special of PMFM (Poptropican Meme Face Mondays)!

PMFM-HolidaySpecialThis week, I haven’t made meme faces for users, but instead some inspired by the holiday season:

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 this week’s special holiday episode. Tune in next Monday for the next Poptropican Meme Face Mondays!

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

Airing 30th for All: Escape From Pelican Rock!

gianthawkpoptropica

Greetings Hawk-tropicans! This is Giant Hawk speaking, and today, I don’t actually have too much news to share with all of you. The little I have, though, is most certainly warranting of its own post.

First off, the Creators have announced, via the Creators’ Blog, that Escape from Pelican Rock Island will be out for everyone on Wednesday, December 30! You better get your digging spoons ready!

If you don’t want to wait, you can play Escape From Pelican Rock for free now on the mobile app!

Until next ti – Hold on a second… That’s not all!

On the Daily Pop, there seems to be a pattern – or should I say, air pattern – beginning to form. Could these sneak peeks hint towards an upcoming Poptropica Island encompassing the idea of aviation?

Deplane: It’s going down for real.
Plane Facts: On the wings of a dream.
Fly the Coop: Propelled to a whole new level.
Aces High: We’re baron our souls on this one.

Seems probable. The picture titled “Deplane” even suggests that this aviation theme is related to the jungle theme we’ve been seeing. We might need a bit more to go on, though. In the meantime, you can catch up on even more sneak peeks over at our Daily Pop Archive.

Whatever we’ll get from the Creators soon, though, we here on the Poptropica Help Blog will be ready to bring the news to you!

Until next time…

Glitches, PHB Specials

A merry Avatar Studio Gift to you!

Slanted Fish

Merry Christmas, Poptropicans! This year, the Poptropica Help Blog has been working on a very special gift to present to the Poptropica community… an Avatar Studio Gift!

ASG gift

If you’re at all familiar with ASGs, you’re in for a treat! To catch everyone up, that’s the Avatar Studio Glitch, the main method Poptropica “glitchers” use to obtain otherwise uncustomizable costume parts. It’s been around for years, with lots of trading going on at the PHC, various YouTube videos showing how to get various costume pieces, and a number of ASGs listed on our Cheats page. But with our merry little Avatar Studio Gift, we’re about to bring you even MORE!

You can find them all on our new page, Avatar Studio Gift, which lists 100+ costumes that you can perform the infamous Avatar Studio Glitch on in order to obtain said costumes (for those not acquainted, instructions for the glitch can be found on the page as well). Check it out:

ASG banner

Here’s just a small sample of some of the ASGs you’ll find in our big bundle. Whether it’s a character with a beautiful beard, a non-human, or something from a long-gone ad, we hope you’ll find something you like. Depending on demand and resources, we hope to add even more in the future!

Some key players who I’d like to thank are Dr. Snowball, a retired Poptropican who sent us a clever (though clandestine) method that allowed the production of such accounts to occur significantly easier than before; Red Lizard, Zerror, and Grumpy Wolf, for contributing a large part to this gift; as well as a few others who are also credited on the page. We hope you enjoy these ASGs.

Just don’t put together something atrocious with your newfound rare costume parts. Make a snazzy outfit, and have fun with these no-longer-uncustomizables. Deck the halls!

🎄 Merry Christmas, Poptropicans! 🎄

Mixels III: The Sequelning

Blake

MIXELS

EPISODE III: THE SEQUELNING

It is a period of endless Mixels ads. The cunning BLAKE POPWALKER, striking from a secret base, has gained a victory over the cruel MIXELS AD EMPIRE.

During the battle, Blake managed to steal the post for yet another ad, this time offering new prizes. Pursued by the Empire, Blake races home on his slightly-outdated Huffy ’79 bicycle, custodian of the stolen ad which can save his sanity, and restore freedom to the galaxy…

What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, with another Mixels ad. Yes, remember when I did the first one? And then when I did it again? Well, the Creators have done it again! They’ve released a third Mixels ad, this time focusing on the Weldos tribe!

I think my expression in that photo says enough. Anyway, once you enter the ad, you are immediately greeted by two of the Mixels, who usher you to the prizes with signs on either side. Heading up the stairs, you can take a quiz, as well as claim your two item cards, this time being the Dribbal Run Power and the Kramm Drill Power!

There are also various signs that you can click, showing off the various aspects of the three tribes.

In other news, Poptropica tweeted this sketch of Manny from Wimpy Wonderland Island showing the various thickness levels of his various parts! Neat.

They also shared this awesome Dr. Hare cake with us. Well, just a picture of it, but we’ll assume it was delicious. For more cake pics, click the link in their tweet!

Okay, is there anything else? No? We’re done? GOOD.

Well, that’s all for now! Stay popping, Poptropicans.
