You Should Vote for Directer D.

…Or should you?

Why you should vote for me, Director D.

Hello, Poptropicans. It has come to my attention that I am currently lagging in the polls behind Medusa.

Medusa!

Elections such as these are about issues, and no issue is more important than a candidate’s appearance. I ask you to consider my perfectly coiffed salt-and-pepper hair, and then look at the hideous mess of wriggling snakes that Medusa calls a hairdo. Or, rather, don’t look at it, because you will immediately turn to stone. That’s the kind of villain she is. I, on the other hand, only want what’s best for you: a sleek, aerodynamic cranial appearance.

I mean, honestly, Medusa? She’s not even the main villain on Mythology Island. Zeus is! Medusa is a miniboss at best. I don’t even think she’s qualified to participate in this election. Until we see her longform boss certificate, we should consider her an illegitimate candidate.

You have one day left to vote in this round. Vote Director D. for best Poptropica villain!

Update

There has been one major change to Icy Comet’s Blog.  That change is Popular Jumper isn’t part of Icy Comet’s Blog anymore.  She was a wonderful author, and I know that everyone will miss her.

A Year Since Skullduggery Island

Here’s a post from the Poptropica Creators’ Blog, with Captain Crawfish getting all sentimental.

From the vault

Time goes by so quickly on Poptropica. Hard to believe that it’s been a year since we started working on Skullduggery Island. Here’s an early sketch of the Phoenix Warbird, dated from April 2010.

Somehow, that ended up being the ship that sank… me! Incredible.

I don’t get why he is getting so sentimental… That ship did sink him!

All about Red Dragon Island

Sorry I haven’t been posting lately (I really need to start posting more)!  To make up for it, here are 4 posts from the Poptropica Creators’ Blog that all have at least a little bit to do with Red Dragon Island.

Memoirs of a Poptropica costume

Looking through the store, it seems there are even more Japanese-inspired costumes that can get you geared up for the upcoming launch of Red Dragon Island. This Geisha costume for girls comes with a special item.


The Shamisen is a traditional three-stringed instrument found in Japan, which is a speciality of the Geisha. Put on this costume and press the spacebar to strum your Shamisen. Then sing yourself a happy tune as you await Red Dragon Island.

Go climb a tree

What do you suppose is happening here?

I’ve never seen a Poptropican do that before…

Traveling salesman

The sneak preview of Red Dragon Island just keeps getting better. Now it’s easier than ever for Poptropica Members to get your Midnight Red Ninja costume. Just pick it up at the kiosk next to the ring!

Now that’s what I call customer service.

New in the Poptropica store

New in the Poptropica Store: the Midnight Red Ninja costume!

This new ninja costume is inspired by the upcoming Red Dragon Island. The Midnight Red Ninja outfit is available exclusively to Poptropica Members.

All Poptropicans can also pick up two classic Japanese-inspired costumes: the original Midnight Ninja, and the Samurai.


Cool, huh?

Locozuna

I… wait. I, uh, mean Yokozuna. It’s an easy mistake. I didn’t say that because the Yokozuna wrestler looks like an old lady. Why would you even suggest that?

If you’ve tried the sneak preview of Red Dragon Island, then you’ve probably had a chance to see the prizes that are up for grabs as you progress through the Sumo tournament. All players can move up one rank, and earn a special outfit and facepaint set for becoming a Maegashira.

There are higher ranks to earn, and better prizes to win! Those hardy Poptropica Members who earn promotion to the highest rank of Yokozuna will get this special prize:

Besides the fancy duds, only those who have earned the rank of Yokozuna will get the special “Sumo stomp” ability.

So what are you waiting for? If you’re a Members and haven’t become a champion yet, now’s your time! And if you’re not yet a Member, there’s still time to become one, and get these exclusive goodies before the Early Access launch of Red Dragon Island.

Modeling the Red Dragon Outfits!

Ok, so you all know about Red Dragon Island, and if you go there right now, there’s a sneak peek! You can wrestle, and the first rank in a Juryo. You wear whatever you want. The next rank is Maegashira:

Next is Sanyaku:

After that, is Ozeki. The O is supposed to have a line over it.

And last, but certainly not least (actually, the most powerfullest rank, Yokozuna:

Note: I took these pictures in Early Poptropica because if I would have taken them in Red Dragon Island, I would have looked fat.

Note # 2: This is the same post written in my blog, but since it was written by me, it’s not plagiarizing.

~Super Thunder, modeling for Poptropica since last month xD

Another 4 Poptropica Posts

I know I haven’t posted in a long time!  I’m so sorry about that!  Anyway, here are 4 recent posts from the Poptropica Creators’ Blog, these are ones that I think are actually important.

The first post is telling about a new game to play on Poptropica.

New on Poptropica: Play Twisted Wizard!

If you’ve played through Wimpy Wonderland already, then you know that a key puzzle is figuring out how to get Greg to stop playing Twisted Wizard. But if you haven’t played Wimpy Wonderland yet, then there’s a surprise in store: you’ll have to beat Twisted Wizard for him! That’s right, now you can play Twisted Wizard in Wimpy Wonderland.

Don’t fret if you’ve already completed the Island. You can play Twisted Wizard at any time by visting the “games” tab in your inventory.

It’s three levels of ogre-zapping fun. And here’s a helpful tip: You can rotate the blocks by pressing the space bar.

Happy wizarding!

The second post is about a new item in the Poptropica Store, called Prank Cans.  Unfortunately, you have to click on the link to see the video.

 

Prank Cans are in the Store NOW!!!!!
