Arabian Nights Island & CYDI RUnner-ups

The long-awaited winner of the Create Your Own Dream Island contest is... Arabian Nights Island!

I gotta tell you, I was kind of tired of the hype by the time I saw the name of this Creators' Blog post. But I was not disappointed when I read it. The premise is: "On Arabian Nights Island, Poptropicans go on a quest across the desert to rescue a sultan's genie from the Forty Thieves."

I've always loved the Arabian Nights stories. Seeing the next Poptropica Island be based on it gave me goosebumps! I think it's going to be able to get the same amount, if not more, of success as Mythology. Both are based on exciting, ancient stories that never get old. I'll be eternally grateful to Magic Eagle, the Poptropican who proposed this island.

UPDATE: Check out this short video of the Creators reading the contest entries! I wonder what the woman at the end did with that envelope -- is there a bin or something down there? The world will never know.
Update: Review of the runner-ups
You can read through all of the runner-up entries on this Creators' Blog tag, some of which were (I thought) as good as the winner. They don't give nearly enough details, but my personal favorites (in no particular order) were Stormchaser Island, Space Bar Island (Cyberchase anyone? I loved that show), and Shakespeare Island (I didn't get the gameplay at first, but it would have been extremely fun). House of Cards got a lot of praise, but I personally found its plotline lacking, though the setting was awesome. Pharoah's Fantasies and Prehistoric sounded like stale ideas (but both were unique), Golden Mustache was too cheesy, Fashion Crisis sounded like a cheesier version of Night Watch, and Bikes vs Boards... don't even talk to me about that. It was blatant plagiarism of Teen Beach Movie, and the Creators really set a bad example by awarding that a prize. Not being a music person, I can't judge Symphony Island (though I love classical music).

I have some evidence that our beloved Mythology Island, is going to be re-released for the big-screen! In the store, there are two new Members-only items (see left). Also, the Mythology Island page has gotten the tell-tale makeover. There's even going to be a new player map to show new winners! We already knew about it's upgrade, but I never expected it on such a big scale. There's even a new poster and wallpaper!

Some rumors are that Mythology will be released in episode format. I think this won't happen because the storylines for episodic islands have to be ridiculously long. Mythology's plotline is already fixed, and it's not long enough to be episodic. So hang tight, our favorite classic islands are still yet undisturbed!

Even though I've played it before I'm getting excited!
