Full of flavor – that’s what the new PHN design and your Thanksgiving meal have in common!

Slanted Fish

Ladies and jellybeans, I present to you – the new design for the Poptropica Help Network! That’s where you can access all of our services and more. Check it out now!

As you may know, the PHB is only one part of our Poptropica Help community, the rest of which can be found on PoptropicaHelp.net. The new layout lets you preview content before jumping right in, and it’s pretty easy to navigate. Hope you enjoy! :mrgreen:

So, there’s another little gift to be thankful for this weekend. The Creators say that they’re grateful for Pirates, Ninjas, Chocolate Factories, The Jersey Devil, Wimpy Kids, Carrots, Rail Travel, Angry Gods, Spacemen, Espionage, Horses, and YOU. Hey, if it weren’t for that last part, you’d almost think they were only trying to advertise some of their favorite islands! *clicks on Horses* Oh wait… 🙂

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving and made it out alive from the intense crowds of Black Friday! But that’s only the beginning of the shopping season, isn’t it?

That’s why the PHB now has a new article titled Merchandise: A Guide to Poptropica Shopping! You can find it under Cool Stuff, and it lists all of Poptropica’s merch so it’s easy to find them all in one place if you’re looking for what to add to your wishlist.

Horse. I meant to say horse. But now my voice has gotten hoarse…

Bonus Items, Skullduggery Island

SkullBook – New Promo Code for Skull Pirate!

Slanted Fish

You’ve assembled your crew, bought the best ship that money can buy, and have prepared yourself a nice meal of crawfish and rum – but wait! You’re not ready to sail the briny seas until you’ve put on the Skull Pirate costume your mother bought you!

Just kidding about that last part. You can actually get this costume just by entering the promo code skullbook in the top-right corner of the Poptropica Store! So easy. Thanks to Meow for the tip.

This code, which should work for everyone, comes from reading the Funbrain sample of the Poptropica: Skullduggery Island book. Plus, you can press the spacebar to swing your skull-tastic sword around to ward off enemies! Fantastic.

Bonus Items, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Island, Membership, Merchandise

Oompa Loompa doom-pa-dee dee, if you are wise you’ll listen to me

Slanted Fish

Wow, the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Island sure snuck up on us quickly! Who’s ready to explore the factory? Samwow5 (Tough Icicle) was right on the top of his game and quickly had the walkthrough all written, with pictures included. If you’re stuck in a chocolate tube, you can use it for a little island help.

If you prefer, we’ve got a video playlist for CatCF as well. Members can play the whole island now, and non-members get a demo, but it’s out for everyone on December 6th. Sweet as Wonka’s whipple-scrumptious fudgemallow delight! 😀

Also, the third and final costume on the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Multi-Prize Card has been unlocked! Aaand… it’s a paper clock tower costume. What?

Thanks to Samwow5 for the picture. If you didn’t get it yet, the promo code (which you enter on the Poptropica Store’s top-right corner) is wimpy2012.

And now, there’s a new line of toys for your collection: the Poptropica Pocketeers! Say hello to Dark Astro-Knight, Hamburger, Dr. Hare, or Lion. These 2-inch buddies can be bought at Toys R Us and come with a code that will give you an exclusive prize on Poptropica, just like all the other Poptropica toys.

Get one for your birthday! I just turned 16 on Thursday (November 15th), thus making me over the 6-15 range for Poptropica accounts. Am I getting old or what? 😛

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Island, Tribes

Always Golden

Super Thunder

Plot twist: I’m alive! 😉 Bet you weren’t expecting that one.

So, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory has only been released for just over a day, and so many Poptropicans have already rushed through the gates, waving your Golden Ticket around yelling “I’M IN! I’M IN!”

Or at least most of you did. Some of you only yelled “I’M IN!” once.

Either way, whether you’re in or out, there are some who are undeniably quick and zip through islands. It requires speed, strength, knowledge, and a bag of candy.

Without further ado, let us congratulate those who stayed golden throughout the whole island and finished it the quickest! Put your hands together (even if they’re covered in chocolate) for…

*drumroll*

1. Dizzy Leopard
of the Flying Squid

(What did I say about the candy? Everyone loves it!)

2. Zippy Leopard
of the Flying Squid

(I want those glasses. Now.)

3. Little Owl
of the Wildfire

(I also want those glasses. Poptropicans always look good in glasses. And candy.)

4. Angry Claw
of the Nanobots

(I want those headphones. Then we can all listen to music that suits the mood for each part of the island. Pile on the suspense!)

5. Smart Eagle
of the Pathfinders

(Pathfinders; a fellow tribesmate. Well done, Smart Eagle!)

6. Green Seal
of the Seraphim

(It’s impossible to not be one of the first with an epic name like that. Green and gold go good together.)

7. Trusty Grape
of the Black Flags

(Oh, that’s one of the coolest hairstyles I’ve ever seen! And the medallion looks simply amazing!)

8. Young Clown
of the Nanobots

(I really do love the medallion. The way Young Clown is wearing it allows us to see the red and white striped design of the medallion!)

9. Perfect Cactus
of the Pathfinders

(Perfect Cactuses wouldbe first. Congrats!)

10. Invisible Axe
of the Flying Squid

(That is just the most awesomely-bizarre collection of clothing.)

And that concludes our ten first finishers! I do hope many of you cross the finish line soon, to join the elite! Fellow Poptropicans, let us rejoicify by staying golden always and eating candy.

P.S. For the holidays, ask for that new D.S. game. It looks amazifyingly good.
