Updated Shrink Ray Island!

Hey guys! So today, I was looking around on Twitter, when I decided to go on the Poptropica’s Twitter, I saw this:

Yep, so Shrink Ray Island will be next to become an updated island! They said it will be released sometime next month. Also with that news, they have decided to release two members-only items for it, the Milk Box and Bottle Cap Costume!

So if you’re a member, go ahead and grab them in the store!

The last goodbye

Hey guys. So, title says it all. So, I’m going to resign this blog, but before you shower me with comments including rage and sadness, I’d just like you to hear my reasons out.

I have actually lost interest of this blog. Not to hurt anyone’s feelings, but this blog is.. dull and uninteresting for me. Between being an editor and actually getting to post and being a viewer and actually view and comment, I would actually pick the second over the first one. Besides, this blog feels so empty and inactive. Like, no one’s even posting. Working here isn’t a treat to me anymore.

I’m pretty sure it’s more beneficial for a blog to have active authors than to have an author who BARELY posts. I just don’t want to take up the space. I mean, someone out there probably deserves it more than me.

This blog has had a good run. I had a good time, reading the posts, reading your comments, etc. But it’s just too much. Now, before I say goodbye, I’m going to give thanks to….

The authors/editors, for giving me a warm welcome, and helping IC by posting, commenting, etc.

The viewers, for commenting on posts and you know, doing what your doing 😉

And best for last, IC, for making this wonderful blog, doing AWESOME things, doing hard work, and you know what I mean, Keep on blogging!

Don’t worry, I’ll still view this blog and comment 😉 . I might be back someday, but I highly doubt it.

The last goodbye.

Some great (and arty) mentions

Hey guys! This is BC in vacation, on my aunts iPad. So anyways, on with the post. Just today, the PHB Popcorn has been published, this time with Issue 20! Well, guess what? Ahem, excuse me, pardon me:

I’M MENTIONED ON HP’S POST!!!

The reason? I have sent episode 1 for issue 20. You can see his post on (http://poptropicahelp.net/2014/10/05/issue20-out/) or, you can see the quote of what he exactly said here:

“the start of an exciting series by Bony Catfish…”

Yep, I sent it, and lets just say I didn’t regret it at all. For now on, every time I finish an episode, I’ll send it for issue [insert here].

Well, that’s just it for me. Now here’s the other mention (this one was found by author Magic Fire and Smart K): PHB author HPuterpop won the Golden Noodle award for (I dunno the award, and yes, I watched the video) drawing Think’s poptropican (and it was a fabulous drawing!). Congrats HP!

Well, that’s it! See ya next time!

Goodbye

Jello peoples (That’s my new thing)… I’m sorry, but this is goodbye. I haven’t posted very much since I joined, and I was taking on a lot then. I don’t get to post much, or even play Poptropica much, since school started. I finally have all of my curriculum, and Pre-Calc is KILLING ME<

So I’m sorry, but think of it this way. It’s better that I leave. I got IC motivated to get back online, so now others can help her do so. Now, someone else can have this Author Position and use it for good. So on so forth… Of course, I’m being pretty selfish. I should’ve made this post almost a week ago. But there are a lot of things right now that are testing me… Testing whether or not I’ll not just leave the blog, but leave blogging… Don’t think that this is a definite resignation from the interweb. I’m just getting started (Yes, a year and almost 10 months into it…). And you’ll still see me around, bugging the heck outta someone. But this is goodbye.

Now, being a Whovian, this wouldn’t be a Goodbye without a quote. A good quote. A quote that’s honest.

But I don’t wanna go.

~The Tenth Doctor

And then there’s the long quote. The quote that I was afraid of messing up, so I googled it. The one that Google redirected me to a CLOCK WEBSITE FOR<<< The one that makes me think of all the things I could’ve, and should’ve, done with this Author Position.

Times change and so must I. We all change. When you think about it, we’re all different people all through our lives and that’s okay. That’s good. Gotta keep it moving. So long as you remember all the people who you used to be.               I will not forget one line of this, not one day I swear. I will always remember when The Doctor was me.

~The Eleventh Doctor

No, not that one, I just thought it would be good measure. The Eleventh Hour. It’s a bit of  a poem to me I suppose.

And now it’s time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven’s Hour is over now, the clock is striking Twelve’s.

So I’m 11… Guess it’s time for 12 to come forward then eh?

~~Goodbye

Inactivity

Hey guys. So, title says its name. I’m crying as I’m writing this, but the saddest news ever:

I’m going to be inactive.

Yep. The reason of this is because is…

I’m going to Norway

Yep, for 3 weeks. The reason being is because of a relative’s wedding (I have to get at the flight tomorrow, ever so early). I might be on, but it’ll be unlikely, because of the connection. I also have like, piles of homework toppled in. I’m doing cyber (online school, sorta), so I won’t need to do piles of paper work.

Also, I am working on TTSOBC, which I am afraid will have to get delayed for a long time. I will be back in October 23 (Thursday).

Hey guys, as you can see by the title, the final episode of Survival Island, Escape, is now out for members! 😀 But for some reason, the first epsiode of PoptropiCon Island, Line Forms Here, isn’t out. Interesting. Well, if you’re a member and have played the 5th episode of Survival, tell me what you think in the comments! 😀 Also, if I’m wrong and PoptropiCon is out for non-members, you guys can leave your opinion on the episode below too. 😉 Here’s my rank for Escape:

Survival ep5 rank

 

Not too bad huh? 😉 I personally thought this episode was pretty easy, but it was still fun. 😉

Get ready to…

Escape!

Ok, I overreacted a little bit with that. 😛 The fifth and final episode of Survival Island, Escape, will be available tomorrow for members! 😀 Here’s the description the creators have given us:

The hunt is on! In the darkness before dawn, can you turn the tables on your pursuer and escape the woods once and for all?

That’s right, you have to escape from the dangerous Myron Van Buren, and finally escape from the forest once and for all! But that’s not just it, the first episode of PoptropiCon Island, Line Forms Here, will finally be out for non-members! 😀 Yep, everybody gets a little treat this Thursday. :]

♬Turn up the music♬

Well, you can ignore the title I guess, but it actually has something to do with this post! 😛 Anyways, the creators have released a soundtrack album featuring, well duh, Poptropica Music! 

 

Wait a minute, but what’s that? ❓ Under where it says, ‘Featuring music from,” you’ll see the Shrink Ray and Back Lot island logos! :O So that does mean that Back Lot and Shrink Ray will be next to be updated! 😛 A lot of Poptropicans have been asking for this, so the creators did it! 😀 Now you can listen to your favorite Poptropica music on the go! 😉 You can buy the full volume (for REAL MONEY!) for $8.99 on Amazon, or for $9.99 on iTunes. You could also buy individual tracks for $0.99 each. 😉 There will be more albums in the future probably. Well, I saw a picture for them and I forgot where I saw them. XD ^^’ Sorry. 😦 😳 Anyways, be sure to check it out!

A new author shines in the light

Hey guys. This is BC here. I’d like to thank IC/Icy Comet for letting me join this blog. So, here are my 10 facts:

  1. I play Poptropica (username is Dr.FunTimesXD if you wanna friend me)
  2. The majority of the songs I like are sung by people who were in Eurovision
  3. I work on 5 other blogs besides this one: PWSP, ATP, TPP, PAw, IFPB, and my hown
  4. I am OBSESSED with Lucky Star and Attack on Titan (mostly AOT/SnK). Seriously, I had AOT as my Google Chrome theme and Lucky Star as my profile pic for the start menu thing. This was at school btw
  5. I have a HUGE problem with shipping. Literally
  6. I was born in Norway to a Norweigian father and a American mother. I spent half my life there, but when I was 6, I moved to the USA
  7. I knew Eurovision since I was three years old. And when I grow up, I want to move to Europe to be in Eurovision (it can happen)
  8. Apparently, AOT is considered “appropriate” at my school
  9. I’m OBSESSED with Euorvison
  10. When I grow up, I want to be a singer and a violinist (like Alexander Rybak; if you don’t know him, look him up)

That’s all for now, and I’m going to do everything I can to try and make this blog the best it can be! Whoops, forgot my bio:

Hello, awesome people. I don’t feel comfortable sharing my info on the internet, but my name starts with in I . I have an interest in urban legends and blogging. I learned that reading to much makes you have creepy visions and nightmares. I’m an otaku and also watch total drama. I’m a Topher and Cody fanatic (and a Eren Yeager one too 😉 ) and ship Tamey (TopherxSamey or SameyxTopher), CoCo (CodyxCourtney or CourtneyxCody), Erevi (LevixEren or ErenxLevi), and Jelsa (JackxElsa or ElsaxJack). I played Poptropica since the beginning, but took a 4 month month hiatus, so my Poptropican is 7 years old. Blogged about in 2014

Yep, that was taken from my gravatar page. Now I can say it.  That’s all for now. I’m going to do everything I can to try and make this blog the best it can be! 🙂

#NewAuthor

Well, as you can probably tell by the title, that I am a new author here. Hooray. :3 Anyways, I am Magic Fire, a new author here at Icy Comet’s Blog! When I found out that the blog was starting up again, I got all excited and filled out a form to be an author, and here I am now apparently! Well, I would like to thank Icy for hiring me as an author here, because well, it’s her blog of course. 😛 Oh wait, I haven’t even introduced myself yet, well here you go folks:

I’m Magic Fire (wait, I already said that didn’t I), but you can call me MF or Magic, or really whatever you want. Well, I’ve been playing Poptropica for about 3 years now and started blogging about it in December. I have my own blog, The Poptropica Package, which is also now having a costume contest in honor of 3 thousand hits! My username, if you want to friend me or look at my costume of something, it’s pop123tropica15. 😉 I know it’s strange, don’t judge. 😛 I like pizza, drawing and reading. Well, that seems about like all you need to know about me.

Once again, thank you Icy Comet for letting me join this great blog! 🙂 Hopefully, I’ll help get this blog up and running again! 😀 😛
