Mashup Mondays: Doctor Who

mashup-mondays-header

The Doctor is in! Who? The Doctor! For this week’s Mashup Mondays, there isn’t any fan art, but I’ll try to make up for it with more costumes and a longer Bits & Pieces! Since the Costumes section is so big with photos, it will go at the end.

Bits & Pieces

If you know what Doctor Who is, then you would know it is all about time travel. So, what better island to bring up than Time Tangled? Now, Time Tangled may not have a cool — definitely not conspicuous — phone booth to travel in, but it does have a Time Device you can use! The first stop is (with photos from the ATP)…

poptropica tti 9Ancient Greece: In Poptropica, Ancient Greece is as far back as you can go. In Doctor Who…not so much. You can also speak to an oracle, who gives advice from the gods. Well, in a Doctor Who novel, “The Slitheen Excursion,” the Doctor goes to Ancient Greece, and it seems like gods are visiting them; well, they’re actually aliens! Yes, it’s an odd show.

The Vikings: In Poptropica, the Vikings ask you to get an amulet for them. Most likely, in the real Viking era, they wouldn’t have been so friendly, as in “The Girl Who Died.” Instead, the Vikings capture the Doctor, and they only escape by the appearance of Odin.

Leonardo da Vinci: Just as you meet Leonardo da Vinci in Poptropica, the Doctor meets him several times, and the Mona Lisa comes up many times, including the Doctor writing “This is fake” on copies and it being based on a companion! Continue reading →

New Author!

shaky-skunk-2Hey, guys! I’m Shaky Skunk, the newest author!

I’m 14 years old, my favourite island is Red Dragon Island, and this post was meant to be written 2 days ago.

I’m also the founder of the Poptropica Skunk Blog, so you can check it out if you’d like.

I can’t think of anything else to write. You kind of run out of ideas after working on 10 blogs…

PTFP Villain Showdown: You Voted, ___ Won

The end has come, Poptropicans…

blog

I’m not even gonna bother with making the post unnecessary long to build up suspense, let’s just get straight to the point. The winner is…

BLACK WIDOW!

Surprising, am I right? No, lol, so many people love Black Widow, I’m one of those people. Even though I must admit, I didn’t actually ever vote throughout this entire contest, and trust me, I did not rig the votes, I repeat, I did not rig the votes.

Now you want proof? Well, you’ll just have to trust me on that, but here’s proof that BW actually won.

Sorry Dr. Hare, you were only one point behind!

By one mere point, lucky her. I’d like to thank everyone who voted, cause of no one did the polls, this series wouldn’t have existed for very long.

But that brings us to the question: what will I post about now since the Villain Showdown has officially ended? I’ll be explaining what will happen with that sometime in the next couple weeks, I need some time to think.

It’s over, isn’t it, isn’t it, isn’t it over? It’s over, isn’t it, isn’t it, isn’t it over? BW won, and you chose her, and I thanked you, the series is gone. It’s over, isn’t it, what do I post about now?

Mashup Mondays: Gravity Falls

Mashup Mondays Header

This week’s Mashup was suggested by Purple Claw!

Now, I know Gravity Falls has a big place in many Poptropicans’ hearts… That’s why I wanted to take all that fondness and put it into one post! There are a lot of costumes for this one, along with some Gravity Falls art made by community members. Let’s get to it!

Fanart

Made by mrmeepjeep, Poptropica community members have been drawn as Gravity Falls characters, known as #PoptropicaFalls:

To the left, you can see a drawing of Small Fire, and to the right, a drawing of Ylimegirl in Gravity Falls form! Pretty cool! Known as Abel Hackney on YouTube, they also made a video of a speed drawing of Tall Cactus for #PoptropicaFalls:

Now, these are just little bonuses, but some Gravity Falls art alone has been made by some Poptropica community members:

PTFP Villain Showdown: The Final Round! 

Yup, it’s the final round already…

As you can tell, unlike the Ultimate Island Showdown on my blog, this is not the longest series ever. There are just way more islands than villains, obviously. So, I could go on and on about what I’ll do once the Villain Showdown officially ends, but that’s not till next week, when I reveal the winner!

Speaking of winners, congrats to Dr. Hare, Black Widow, and Ringmaster Raven for making it this far, becoming the finalists!

But as much as I like all of them, only one will remain victorious. This is the final poll, vote wisely…

You will find out the champion in one week, Saturday the 10th of September to be exact. The hype, and suspense, is real.

PS: vote for Black Widow, she’s my fav! Lol, just kidding, you can choose whoever your fav is.

Joining the PBN

Yes, Poptropica Tips for Poptropicans has now joined the Poptropica Bloggers Network (or PBN)! Well, what is the PBN, first of all?

The Poptropica Bloggers Network consists of multiple blogs run by your follow Poptropicans! We work together to help each other when needed. The PBN will sometimes even host events that run across multiple of our blogs!

This is just the tip of the iceberg, and I believe the PBN has a lot of potential for all kinds of Poptropica blogs. It’s an original idea, and I think it could be beneficial for this blog, other blogs, and the PBN itself for as many small Poptropica blogs out there to join!

A cool feature of the PBN is that it has a page that contains all posts of blogs that are part of the network. It also has a chat on Discord where bloggers can discuss and possibly plan future events together. If you could follow the PBN, it would be really helpful since it not only helps us, but it helps other blogs as well (maybe even yours!).
