The PTFP was recently challenged by Spotted Dragon from Adventure Time Pop to the #IceBucketChallenge, an awareness for ALS, also known as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis. Of course, we accepted! ALS is a disease that affects the body by killing off motor neurons (what makes you move), so it eventually leads to total paralysis (not being able to move any part of your body) and the person passes away 3 or more years after being diagnosed. It’s very serious, so the Ice Bucket Challenge is to promote awareness about the disease and help others. If you want to give a donation (either you or your parents), make sure to go to this page so you can! Many famous Poptropicans have already participated, including Zeus, Black Widow, Dr. Hare, the PHB team, and two amazing comic characters that you can see here:
Two of the PTFP’s authors have already participated in the Ice Bucket Challenge and had a freezing amazing time! You can see how fun we had in these two photos:
If you want to challenge any other authors, say so in the comments!
Poptropica Lands Creations
Poptropicans are getting into the minecraft Poptropica Lands spirit by building amazing sculptures, buildings, and geographies. If you have an awesome creation you’d like to share, make sure to participate in PHB’s Poptropica Land Construction Contest for a chance of your land being featured to millions of viewers! You can also send in your land to the Poptropica Creators by clicking “Share” when in the hammer’s pop-up, and they might just post it on their blog, like they did with these two creations:
Other News
Poptropica’s Twitter page (@Poptropica) has been active lately, including following the PHB’s Twitter (@Poptropica_Help)……..and following our own Twitter (@Poptropica_Tips; we give links to our posts and occasionally talk with other Poptropicans to bring you all the tips you need)!
Poptropica even retweeted our shout-out post about them following us back:
Poptropica’s always active on Twitter by answering questions, posting news on their wall, tweeting other Poptropica related posts, and more, including the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. In fact, a question about how Poptropica cancelled the Top 10 Finishers announcements was asked by the popular blogger Nameless UnDEFiNed and was answered fairly quickly:
Will the Top 10 Finishers be coming back? Thanks to Nameless UnDEFiNed, they might just be. What do you think? Answer in the comments! Keep poppin’, Poptropica. ~SW
P.S. Sorry for the long post! xD
Nice! XD
I emailed the Creators about my challenge for Jeff Kinney, but who knows if they got it. If the PTFP Twitter could mention it to them, that would be really helpful! (No biggie if you don’t want to) 😉
We’ll be happy to! 😉
Awesome, thanks Wolfy!
No prob! :]
I saw your tweet, but I was hoping more of “my friend wanted to challenge you,” cause it sounds like PTFP challenged him, but whatever, thanks anyway. (you know me, i can be a control freak sometimes, sorry) 😛
I tried. xD Twitter limits the amount you can say, so I had to change it to “We.” I had 0 characters left even after changing it! Sowwy :c Either way, here’s what they replied: “@Poptropica_Tips You’re not the first to challenge a very busy Jeff (new book this Fall!). Stay tuned…expect something at some point.” Awesome!! 😀
I saw, thanks. 🙂
