NPC Popularity Contests

Binary Bard is king! Er, jester.

Hello hello.

You know that competition that the creators held where we voted for our fav Poptropica villians? Well, it’s all over.

And WHO comes out on top?

Binary Bard!!!

And this is his thanks to us…

My fellow Poptropicans, recently you selected me as your favorite Poptropica villain. This is a great honor, and with it comes great responsibility. I shall not let you down. As your choice for the best Poptropica villain, I make these unbreakable, evil promises to you:
  • I shall require every Poptropican to set a picture of me as their desktop
  • I shall outlaw birthday parties, puppy dogs, and summer vacation
  • I shall replace your sugary sodas with unsweetened iced tea
  • I shall institute a mandatory 8 PM bedtime for all, even when American Idol is on
  • I shall enslave every citizen of every planet in the galaxy and crush them under my iron yoke
Bow! Bow before the Binary Bard, my subjects! Bwahahahaha!0100001101101111011101010110110001100100011011100010011101110100001000000110100001100001011101100110010100100000011001000110111101101110011001010010000001101001011101000010000001110111011010010111010001101000011011110111010101110100001000000111100101101111011101010010110000100000011011010110111101101101

BINARY BARD

Now that’s gratitude! We vote binary bard as our favourite and he enforces new rules, all for the benifit of our health and well being. Except for crushing us under his iron yoke.
Wait, iron yoke?!
I mean, I’m sure it’s no yoke(joke) but a yoke? And it’s made of IRON?! Seriously, if you mean to intimidate us, use something more… intimidating. 😛
Web Development

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 million!

As of today, May 24, 2011, the Poptropica Help Blog has reached the milestone of five million visitors. It’s been less than three years, but we have had thousands coming to our website every day for their dose of Poptropica awesomeness.

And we couldn’t have done this without all of you guys. Thank you to each and everyone of you for continuing to support the PHB!

As a reward, you can now indulge yourself in the goodness of some limited edition PHB cookies made just for the occasion. 😀

Dr. Hare 2.0 and his minion

If the mayor of 24 Carrot Island was upset about Dr. Hare’s mischief, well, things just got worse. Dr. Hare has posted the following on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog:

Dr. Hare returns to 24 Carrot Island!

Bad news gets worse for the mayor of 24 Carrot Island.

Wait a minute, I don’t remember this picture being taken. That’s not the real Dr. Hare at all. It’s an impostor!

What’s going on here?

DR. HARE

Wait, so now there’s TWO Dr. Hares?! Make that three… it looks like the impostor’s holding a Dr. Hare doll! But where did he get THAT?

Here’s the big scoop…

Poptropica TOYS are in the making!

Popular online toy store ToyWiz.com has a page up declaring that it is “your source for official Poptropica merchandise like toys, action figures, plush & redemption codes for online virtual items!” You can now pre-order goodies that will ship to you in June.

Featured items right now include 7-inch plush figures of Dr. Hare, Shark Boy, and more. There are also 6-inch action figures, 3-inch mini figure toy 2-packs, as well as a deluxe toy playset: the 30-inch inflatable blimp!

Sounds like a lot of fun!

So tell us, nice boys and girls, would you like to be getting your very own Poptropica toys? 😀

Hey guys, it’s me.

I know you’ve all heard the news about EL leaving us. EL, if you’re reading this I want you to know something. I know I always said you were immature (and yes, most of the time I was right.) but that last post really changed you’re image in my eyes. Whether you wrote that poem or not, it was absolutely beautiful and I definitely respect you for that. You will be deeply missed by all of us here at the PHB.

Anyway, on to the base of this post. You all know that frequently, we end up relying  members of the PHB community for our videos. Not to say we still won’t need you guys, but I can take a bit of the burden off of your shoulders. Normally I never make poptropica videos because they usually end up looking something like this…

Ouch, that almost hurts my eyes to look at. Luckily I finally screwed around with Hypercam enough to make this.

Hey, that actually looked pretty decent! You should expect more videos from me in the future. 🙂

Hellos & Goodbyes

I’ll be back. Not really.

As from the title above, someone is leaving. That’s me. I’m leaving mainly because of school, and the reason I want to make more videos. Plus, I don’t want to have some stress in my life on how long I have gone without posting. Very short, I know. I won’t make a list oof people who helped me on this path, but I will write a short poem.

I was at the bottom of a hill,

A hiker then said,

“Here’s a chance to have an expedition.”

And then I accepted.

I had misconceptions

With my fellow friend (s)

But after a good hike

This adventure must end

And now to fly away into the majestic double rainbow of truth and justice. Goodbye my friends. *flies away on a unicorn*
