During the Preview for Cryptids Island (beginning December 2, 2010), players could try to spot Nessie in the viewfinder of the binocular telescope at the loch. Those lucky enough to spot her received a Nessie Hat for their avatar.
Visitors to the Cryptids Island preview from December 2 to December 19, 2010 had a chance to win a "Nessie" costume hat by spotting Nessie through the binocular telescope at Loch Ness. But Nessie only appeared at certain times and there was nothing you could do other than look in the right place at the right time. The monster appeared as a tiny object in the distant waters of the Loch.

PoptropiCon 2 - Spoiler Alert
You are inside the Con, and must win the costume contest as Omegon (of "Mighty Action Force").
1) You drop in through the window, and the contest emcee tells you about the contest to win a part in an upcoming movie sequel. But apparently Omegon's look is a secret.
2) The atrium (left) is a Common Room. You want to go right into the Expo Floor and its connecting rooms: a Demo Hall, an Exhibit Hall, and a maze-like Hallway.
3) On the Expo Floor, you are recruited by Wicked Cool News to find 3 images of Omegon, with which they will help you make a costume to win the contest. They give you a cell phone to capture images.
4) Mighty Comics creator Stan Ditko says Sasha Capone, of Totally Rad News, tried to sell him photos. Go right to follow her. Pick up a free Elf Archer comic as you pass. (If she stops to talk to you, go back and see Stan again, then she will dash for the Hallway.)
5) Continue right to the Hallway, which has three doors that (impossibly and confusingly) always lead back to the same place. Watch to see where Sasha goes and follow her.
6) At the hall next to the Tech Lounge, she offers to sell you the photo, but you have no cash. Sasha gives you her business card and enters a meeting, leaving her cell phone in a bin. Go right to the Tech Lounge and call her phone, then run back to the bin to answer, and text yourself the photo from her phone.
7) Leave the hallway, go back to the Expo Floor and enter the Exhibit Hall. The workers are looking for a statue of the "silver age Elf Archer" (as in the reprint comic), and you will have to costume yourself that way to pose as the missing statue and enter the locked room.
8) The costume items to copy are: tunic (on Piñata-Man hanging in the Tech Lounge), feathered cap (the kilted investigator on the second level of the Expo Floor), bow (from the knight in the Demo Hall to the left), and mask (from the Green Hornet fan way back in the Theater).
9) Go back to the Exhibit Hall and stand still on the dolly holding the second statue. They will wheel you left into the room. When they leave, climb left to the second level where the Omegon masks are displayed, and get the photo.
10) Leave the Exhibit Hall, go back to the Expo Floor, and left into the Demo Hall, where a demonstrator shows you how to play a card game based on superhero characters. It is based on turns where you can add gems to your own collection, or attack to remove them from your opponent's collection, using a limited deck of number cards. When you finish, you get an additional card (a strong 4) for your deck.
11) Click on a balloon to the right, and jump from the table to the second floor, where you will challenge an experienced (but overconfident) player. First go to the bulletin board and smack it several times until a special card (a 2 that blocks 2's and 1's) is revealed. Substitute the 4 and the 2 for 1's in your playing deck. You can use your improved deck to beat the expert and get her special Omegon card (a 6, which she never plays).
* You can find the other special cards to equal her deck, but you probably don't need them:
- use a balloon and jump left at the top of the Expo Floor (Trash Collector card)
- use the balloon and jump up to the inflated hero in the Exhibit Hall (Fashion Ninja card)
- look behind the box at upper left in the theater (Teen Arachnid card)
- beat the card player in the theater (GoldFace card)
- hit the soda machine in the Tech Lounge / Hallway (Pony Girl card)
- beat the player in the Tech Lounge (Elf Archer card)
* Hint to beat the expert (as seen beating the demonstrator): use at least one 4 and one 3 to attack, and the special blocking 2 when she plays a 1 or 2, and she will run out of cards before she can get to 13 gems. If the game were harder, you would need more of the special cards.
12) With all three images on the phone, go back to the WCN table and give the phone to the red-haired guy, who will fashion you an Omegon costume. Put on all 4 pieces and go to the Theater, where the contest is beginning.
13) You are the best of the three entrants, but suddenly a portal opens and the "real" Omegon appears, out to destroy the Mighty Action Force!
14) An actual super-villain has crashed the Con. But you get the Episode 2 Island Medallion.
