Ninja-tastic…for reelz yo.

I’m not too happy today…someone stole my super powers. But whatever. On to the updates, shall we?

SPOILER WARNING!
The following FIRST image contains sneak peeks to the upcoming Counterfeit Island which have not been officially revealed by Poptropica Creators.

  1. New SWF Cards Discovered by Comical Eye!
    “Well you know how on the PHB, ruthrose88 found those SWF cards for Counterfeit Island, right? Well I went to a lot of trouble to get the WHOLE of ALL the cards that ruthrose88 found. (Thanks to coderkid for the application that I used.) Well, here they are.”

  2. New Information Under Poptropica! Credit to GoldenButterfly!
    “I was going around Poptropica and found this under the game screen. Not much so important but hey, it’s new ain’t it?”– from GoldenButterfly

    How about: "Did you know? You can earn 2000 credits when you complete an island!" Much better, am I right?
  3. New Side Ads, Credit to Johnny!
    This new side ad is for the game “Nanovor” in which you build, create, and battle nano-bot like creatures online.
    Looks fun, but I think I won’t be playing it – you have to pay to get more out of the game. Check out their site here: Play Nanovors!

Meet Neat Whale

Mara Elisabeth

Hey guys, it’s Neat Whale. Most of you know me, I think… I’m an administrator on the PTB (Poptropical Thunder’s Blog), and administrator on The Zone. I’m ten, born on April 23, and I live in the USA, which led to my often used nickname ‘The Unknown American Tween’. (Fun fact: This name is also used by me when I feel like my B-Ball mates are ingoring me… which happens a lot, unfortunally)

I’m obsessed with Poptropica, of course. I’ve been on the PHB for about a year now, on December 11th (I think). Not many of you know this, I’m sure, but I just want to put it out there, that for about four months my parents kept me from the PHB, which was not a fun time. 😦

But, hey, I’m back now…. and before I close this post, I just want to say thank-you to ALL of the people that were there for me and were my friend, you should know who you are by now, but if you don’t… you’re Poptropical Thunder, Golden Eagle, Cool Wing, Green Seal, Cheerful Claw, Storm, Raven, The Boot, Winter Moonbeam, Sana, Super Grape, Jes, Golden Sky, Zuzu, and of course, Hijuyo.

And anyone thanks to those who stood up for me that time when I was accused of making Grumpy Wolf leave, of course. You mean a whole bunch to me, and I am never about to go off and forget you for that.

I hope you all enjoy me on the staff here. 😀

Neat Whale out!

Bonus Items, Counterfeit Island, Sneak Peeks, Store

Candy Canes and Proof that Counterfeit Island is coming soon!

Sparkle Star/Green Seal
Hello, fellow poptropicans! =D Some of you might have noticed that there’s 2 new delicious looking store items (Thanks, Bobitator!) and 2 new Creators’ posts!  There’s also now a page about Counterfeit Island telling what the plot of the island is.  =D

In the Poptropica Store, there’s two new items:

  • FREE candy canes.  YESH, THEY IZ FREE!!! =O
  • A new Candy Cane Outfit for 75 credits!

Shark Boy made a new post about the new items:

Get your CANE on!

To make the Poptropica holiday season a little more festive, we are giving out FREE candy canes in our store! You can also impress (or scare) your friends with the Crazy Candy Cane Costume. Happy Holidays!

If you press the spacebar while holding the candy cane, you can throw it up in the air! 😀 THANK YOU, CREATORS!

Celebrate Christmas this year on the summit of chilly Mount Everest!

Anyway, there’s another post on the Creators’ Blog, by Master Mime!  (Thanks, Johnny!) It shows some sketches of the Counterfeit Island Gate Keeper.  0_o He scares me…

Doesn’t he scare you too?  0.o The title of the post was “Counterfeit Island Gate Keeper”, and the description was:

Here is some concept art for Counterfeit Island. Watch out for the Gatekeeper! You will only like him when he’s…crazy.

I think he’s crazy enough. 😛 xD If you look at the homepage, there’s a link to a page about Counterfeit Island’s plot!  (Thanks, TyrianCF!)

When you click on it, you will be lead to this page:

So, the description talks about the plot, saying that you will have to explore the “dark and dangerous side of Counterfeit Island” and save the famous artwork from the person who’s out to steal it.  This probably includes that Thomas Jefferson painting, and the Scream.

Yup, this is pretty much it. 🙂  Be sure to check out the new Poptropican’s 911 below!

Poptropican’s 911: Issue #7

Slanted Fish

Beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeep…

Hold on a second, what’s going on here? A malfunction with our systems?

Nope, but issue #7 of the PHB’s Poptropican’s 911 monthly newsletter has arrived! Don’t look so bewildered – any true Poptropica fan would want to read this. 🙂

Redirect to Issue #7

Also, our ‘Poptropica Poll’ widget to the right side has been updated with the question, ”What do you think of the upcoming Counterfeit Island?” Move your cursor over there and submit your opinion!

November 2009’s poll question read, ”Did you pay any real money for Poptropica merchandise?” Here are the results:

Option | Votes | Percentage
No, I did not spend real money for Poptropica products. | 1,501 | 76%
I bought credits to spend at the Poptropica Store. | 292 | 15%
I bought Poptropica T-shirts from Zazzle.com. | 65 | 3%
I bought device skins from SkinIt.com. | 58 | 3%
I bought Larger Than Life stickers at LTLprints.com. | 53 | 3%

Total votes: 1,969

The majority says they do not spend real-life money on Poptropica products. Looks like the Poptropica Creators are going to have to keep working at it *cough*LOWERPRICESPLEASE*cough* if they want more purchases on their stuff! xD

Hope you’ll enjoy reading our 911 this month, and maybe even be inspired to submit your own entries! Congratulations to everyone who entered something for the 911, whether it made it or not. 🙂

Snow with a side of Ads :P

New Poptropica Updates!

  1. New Side Ad! (Credit to Bobitator of the PHF!)
    There’s a new side ad on Poptropica, for the Cartoon Network TV show “Total Drama Island” (which I think is a VERY dumb show :P). SHAME Creators! Check out its picture below. It appears whenever you change scenes. Poptropica must really be getting up there if they’re getting money from Cartoon Network…O_o

    Credit to Setew2 for the pic!
  2. New Store Items! (Credit to Bobitator (again? O_O) and The Storm from the PHF!) Introducing the “Snowman” and er.. “Snow Fall”!
    Taken from the Creator's Blog

    The Snowman costume is a…well..Snowman. With the Snow Fall, you can brighten up your gaming experience! It causes snow to fall from the top of your screen to the bottom, which is really cool. I don’t think either is worth spending Credits on though.

    You can read the Creators’ Blog post about it here: http://blog.poptropica.com/2009/12/let-it-snow.html

And that pretty much sums up this post! See you guys later,
Coderkid
