Welcome to March! We have so many valuable members of our community, and every month we like to shine a spotlight on two of them. Starting this month, there will not be any quoted testimonials attached to our amazing winners. Why? We have had many months when Users didn't know what to say in their nomination, and sometimes were hesitant to even put a nomination through if the User wasn't well known on the forums. It is our hope that this small change will allow members to nominate people they genuinely feel should be given a spotlight for the month, even if that person's kind acts and loyalty to IcePets may be in methods other than posting on our forums. We don't want members to think they don't stand a chance if they aren't comfortable making a lot of posts. Just be kind, be yourself, and your friends here will notice! Without further ado I give to you our regular news post.

Tables have been put away, signs are being taken down and the Voting Booths are closed until next month. Of course, this can only mean one thing! It's time to announce the winners of Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! This month, both of our winners fall under the Yet to Win MOTM category! Everyone say congratulations to...



@Fluffy123 and @Maelittles



You both will receive 100,000 IcePoints and this exclusive Hidden Avatar:



Thank you both for being part of the IcePets community. We couldn't be the place we are without members like you!

While member votes were tallying for MOTM, Staff votes tallied for SOTM, and this month's winner is...

The plants across Terrafrost are slowly becoming more green, and the Token Booth has changed its stock accordingly.

A mysterious new plushie has been spotted around Terrafrost -- one with a beak-shaped mask full of fragrant herbs, a long black cane, and a heavy-duty protective coat. Say hello to the Searcher Plush, funded by @Lokki! This unconventional yet well-meaning doctor is sure to keep your Pets amused, and it can be found at the Plushie Palace. You can also get it as a reward from the Book Quest, and starting next week, Samuel will be looking for them in the Plushie Quest.



And in case our last batch wasn't enough, we're releasing two more Duckies -- the Icicle Ducky and the Floral Ducky. These seasonal friends are simply adorable, and were funded by @gotchalocket! Your Pets will be looking forward to bathtime once you get your hands on these. You can find these squeaky pals at the Toy Trunk, or receive them as a reward from the Plushie Quest. A week from today, they'll also be requested by the Space Quest.

After taking some time for a much-needed vacation, Cecie has returned to take over her post. This powerful Dabu must have spent some time at the salon while she was gone, because she's returned with a brand new look! Now that all the hubbub from this year's Clash of Colours is over, Cecie is ready to start handing out her hourly tokens once again.





Alongside the Dabu herself, both the Cecie Profile Skin and the Token Dabu Stamp have received a facelift to reflect this new change. When you head on over to pick up your token, be sure to take a look at Cecie's new style -- and maybe even give her a compliment while you're at it!

For those who participated in this year's Amourok, we would love to hear your thoughts! We have set up two surveys to gather feedback on the event: Survey One is for General Amourok 2021 Feedback with questions pertaining to the event as a whole, while Survey Two is for Potential Amourok Changes -- ideas and discussions that the Staff team has had internally in regards to potential Amourok changes that we feel need a greater amount of feedback on. There is also an area for users to suggest their own ideas for us to consider!

Both surveys will be up until March 13th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time and users will be rewarded 15,000 IcePoints for completing each survey.

After a month of festivities, games, and celebration of love, Amourok has finally come to an end. Just as they had worked together in the very beginning, the Ancient and Mythical Pets are taking down the Amourok decorations and cleaning up the confetti. In addition, shopkeepers are putting all Amourok-themed Items back into storage until next February. It's been a wonderful holiday, and Xaric and Zeiss are grateful to everyone who participated!

Want to find out if your team is the winner? Head over to the Event Page to find out! There's trophies and other awards being given away, so be sure to click on the link to receive yours.



While all of Terrafrost put a fair amount of hard work into this Amourok, there's five Users who simply went above and beyond. These Users will be awarded the Golden Competitor Stamp.Congratulations to:

-1. @Nati
-2. @Fearless
-3. @Silvy
-4. @petshopgirl
-5. @MidnightHour

Nice work, everyone!



And that's not all! The Amourok Store has some new exclusive Items. If you racked up some points during this event, you'll surely want to put them to use. The holiday may be over, but you'll surely treasure these Items year-round!

After nearly a month of festivities and fun, Amourok has nearly reached its conclusion. Starting tomorrow, Amourok items will no longer be stocking in NPC shops, and they will be removed from the ICE Shop. To make sure this holiday ends with a bang, Full Hearts will be restocking even more often than before. Whether you're Team Mythical or Team Ancient, you'll want to take this opportunity to support your team and give it your all; so head on over to the shops and scour the shelves for Heart Fragments and Full Hearts!



While Amourok may be ending at midnight today, Heart Breaker will be holding out a little bit longer. Users can continue playing until tomorrow, February 25th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time. This is due to the downtime Heartbreaker experienced on February 14th.



The deadline for the Amourok Poetry Contest has passed, and now it's time for the voting to commence! Be sure to check out the Contest Page and vote for your favorite poem. Take your time and choose wisely, but make sure you've cast your vote before March 1st, 23:59:59 IcePets Time.





Tables are being wiped down, signs are appearing all over Terrafrost, and the Voting Booth is open once again. All of this hustle and bustle can only mean one thing! It's time to vote for Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! Terrafrostians can vote for up to 3 users to win 100,000 IcePoints and the Member of the Month Avatar.



Two winners will be chosen each month, one for the Free Vote MOTM, which includes all members except Staff, and the Yet to Win MOTM, which includes anyone who hasn't previously won MOTM. If you win the Free Vote and you have already won MOTM, you will receive an Honoured Member Trophy.



Remember!

- You cannot nominate yourself or members of staff.
- Do not ask other users to vote for yourself or other members.
- Send your nominations here!

You have until February 28th at 23:59:59 to submit your vote. Winners will be announced on March 1st!

It's time to get your ducks in a row, because we're releasing a huge batch of Ducky themed items, all of which have been brought to us by @Silvy! The first five Duckies we'll introduce are simple, solid colors; the Black Ducky, Brown Ducky, Turquoise Ducky, White Ducky, and the Ice Ducky. These charming little guys will look simply adorable on your bathroom shelves, and they can be purchased at the Toy Trunk. You can also get them as a reward from the Plushie Quest, and starting next week, the alien of the Space Quest will be looking for them.




Up next are the Love Ducky, Snowdrift Ducky, Cottoncandy Ducky, Cubed Ducky, Dreamworld Ducky, and the Dead Evil Ducky. If you have Pets in these respective colors, they're sure to be the perfect gift. Like the solid colored Duckies, they can also be found at the Toy Trunk, rewarded by the Plushie Quest, and sought out by the Space Quest.



Finally, there's one more Ducky-themed item left to introduce -- the You Quack Me Up Stamp! You definitely don't want this adorable stamp missing from your collection. This can be purchased by none other than the United Terrafrost Post Office.

The end of Amourok draws near! To ensure that the winner is a surprise to everyone, both team's respective scores will be hidden until the end of the event: February 24th, 23:59:59: IcePets Time. But that doesn't mean things are winding down; Full Hearts will be rewarded much more frequently in Heart Breaker, and you'll start seeing them on on the shelves of the Token Booth, Quest Store, and the Raffle Store! You'll have more chances than ever to help boost your team's score and rack up some Event Points to spend in the Amourok Store.



Attention all poets! Here is your friendly reminder that the deadline for the Poetry Contest is February 23rd, 23:59:59 IcePets Time. To note, the deadline for the contest has been extended for one extra day, from the original February 22nd! There's lots of prizes to be won, and all who submit a poem will be featured in an upcoming Book. Even if you have no experience in poetry writing, now's a better time than ever to give it a shot. Once you've finished your creation, make sure to send it to mochihugs before the aforementioned deadline.

For centuries, the Zabeu has been a mysterious and elusive Pet to Terrafrostians all around. Now, they've become even more magical -- or perhaps Mythical would be a more accurate term, for the Mythical Zabeu has arrived! An affectionate yet timid creature, the Mythical Zabeu is certain to trot right into your heart. With its opalescent horn and silky flowing mane, it's truly a sight to behold!



If you'd like the Mythical Zabeu as your own, you'll want to get yourself a Mythical Snow Jar. These can be obtained at the ICE Shop year-round for 500 IC (450 for Gold Users), so there’s no rush -- but why would you ever want to wait?



Starting today, a new game of Heart Breaker will be starting every fifteen minutes rather than the usual thirty. That's twice as many chances to get your hands on some fun Amourok-themed prizes! The event will be ending on February 24th, 23:59:59: IcePets Time, so you'll definitely want to click those hearts while you still can.

Also, the Book Quest will be doubling its rewards and quest limits until February 21st, 23:59:59 IcePets Time. Take this chance to help stock up some books, and you might even get some Empty Heart Fragments as a reward!



Speaking of Empty Heart Fragments, shop keepers are now restocking these and Full Hearts at a lower rarity. This means they will be seen more frequently! Stop by the bank and grab some extra spending money and hit the shops today!
