Mocktropica Island

I’m friends with the monster…..

What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, with another little piece of scoop, as well as a review of the Mocktropica bonus quest.

First of all, I guess we should get into the moment you’ve all been waiting for! The day you’ve dreamt of! The pinnacle of-

Blake! Stop stalling and get on with it!

Fine. So yeah, Mocktropica bonus quest. Woooo….

First of all, note, please, I am NOT a Poptropica member. I tried to get it with my Visa gift card from Christmas, but it won’t take it. Okay, so now for the actual quest. I got a pretty good idea of what might happen if you go to the quest: and as it turns out, I was right.

So, you start off in a Mega Fighting Bots arena. You meet Bucket Bot, the ‘scrap heap they send in every time a new player registers.’ You have to win 3 rounds with Bucket Bot, with the traditional Mortal Kombat statistics:

1st Round Win + 2nd Round Loss + Final Round Win = Win
1st Round Loss + 2nd Round Win + Final Round Win = Win

So after that, you win the Bucket Bot outfit. I didn’t particularly like this quest. Now, onto the less exciting weekend Daily Pops. These Pops feature a pharmacy, as well as that little game you play at the carnivals where you pick a duck and win a prize. Carnivals. As well as the monsters from earlier in the month. Could it be?

3000years

Monster Carnival… It’s been 3,000 years…

Okay, so nobody but Pokemon fans will get that. So anyway, this is Blake, signing off!

N-No way… I actually managed to make it to the end of the post… Without a pun!

Newswoman: How does it feel?

Well, I would probably say the effects of this glee really POPPED out at m- DANGIT!

Advertisements

Things get annoying (video ads)

Hi Gs,

Just wanted to warn everyone of yet again ANOTHER new ad unit on Poptropica: Video Ads.

Envision YouTube video ads in Poptropica.  Not good.

These new ads pop up between pages. You can skip them, but it’s a major annoyance. Nameless has started a petition to stop these ads, which you can view here. Please sign the petition; we need lots of votes to make a difference!

However, do recognize that ads help generate money that Poptropica needs to run, so watching these ads is one way you can support the game.  Further still, the only ad that is currently running would be Galactic Hot Dogs, which they own.  For some users, the ads can be laggy.  They create a barrier, and I just hope they won’t lose any players by this…

Viewer's Showcase

Viewer’s Showcase: January 2014

Hi Gs,

We have some real talented viewers in this community.  Turns out you are one of them!

Art

When all else fails, MasterPinpey’s art always leaves me marveling.  Most of my inspiration comes from her art, as well as my style.  Here’s comparison between Pinpey’s art and mine:

See any resemblance? 😛 You can check out MasterPinpey’s deviantART here, be sure to check her out — She is a lot awesomer than I.

Also, Silver Wolf, who was in this category last month, did a cute little pic of my Cuddly Kid account.  I think that deserves some recognition. 😉

Stories

The Nameless Adventures is a fan fic created by none other than Nameless UnDEFiNed.  The newest season just came out recently, and it is not a bad read!  The story starts here, and the newest chapter is here.  Get ready for adventure, spunk, and out and out DEFiANce!

Blog of the Month

This blog has been selected because it is so genius!  Poptropica With Scary Plug is a neat little treat: it includes PopFash!on, Glitcheats (wonderful wordplay, in my opinion), and this little dude:

This blog is so inspiring, and I wish you many happy readers, Scary Plug With Poptropica! 😀

Since the new “Poptropican’s 911: Revived” magazine is coming out soon, I’m wondering if I should discontinue Viewer’s Showcase.  I mean, there is fan art, stories, and blogs in the magazine, and that’s what I do here… although this is a little bit more specific, tell me what you think; should I quit, or should I carry on? 🙂
