Sqwenda is cheering from the sidelines, encouraging our teams to keep up the great work! They are very excited to see the outcome of this contest, just like the rest of us Terrafrostians. Make sure you get ready for our final lap -- if you haven't had a chance to restock much, now's your chance! Restockers have until 23:59:59 IcePets Time on Sunday, June 30th to continue earning points for their teams. For those standing on the sidelines, here's a look at how the teams are doing.
Currently in 4th place is...
Team Red Dovu with 20,620 Items Restocked!
Bringing up 3rd place is...
Team Green Trido with 31,205 Items Restocked!
In 2nd place we have...
Team Yellow Sharshel with 44,279 Items Restocked!
And in 1st place is...
Team Blue Audril with 48,387 Items Restocked! Keep up the great work!
Sqwenda is preparing to stock up their shop and can't wait to give out Team Credits and Winning Team Credits to those who have met minimum requirements and those who went above and beyond. They also have a special prize, the Golden Competitor Stamp, for the top three restockers site-wide. Don't keep poor Sqwenda waiting -- get out there and clear out those shops!
If your inventory is getting a bit full after all that restocking, don't forget to clear it out by July 6th at 23:59:59 IcePets Time! If you don't you won't lose any Items, but you may find it more difficult to move those Items around.
Member of the Month voting for this month is ending soon! Wherever you are in Terrafrost, don't forget to head to the nearest voting booth and cast your vote for Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! Terrafrostians can vote for up to three Users to win 100,000 IcePoints and the Member of the Month Avatar.
Two winners will be chosen each month. One lucky new winner will be honoured with Yet to Win MOTM, for those who have yet to be recognised for their community contribution. Then there is the Free for All MOTM, which includes all members except Staff, for those long-time members who deserve another tip of the hat. For those who have already won MOTM, you will receive the Honoured Member Trophy.
Remember! - You cannot nominate yourself or members of Staff. - Do not ask other Users to vote for yourself or other members. - You may vote for up to three Users per month. - Send your nominations here!
You can submit your vote any time during the month, and have until the end of the month to do so. Winners will be announced on the first of next month!

After receiving another shipment of goods, it seems as if another manufacturer has updated their line of products! The Furcare Soap, Furcare Shampoo, Furcare Conditioner, and the Furcare Trimmer are looking positively radiant. Perhaps it's time to treat someone special to a self care day, using these new and improved formulas. You might have to stop by the Token Booth, Space Quest, or Grooming Parlour to collect them all!

Ask and ye shall receive! We have heard the concerns about inventory and storage space. To combat this, we will be increasing all Users' inventory space to 10,000. The inventory change will remain until one week after the restocking contest ends. In addition, you will be able to find the 100 Storage given out more frequently in quests. You will also find it in the Token Booth indefinitely priced at oneSilver Token, so we hope you've been saving up. You might also have noticed that all Shopkeepers will be stocking these Items for the remainder of the Restocking Contest.

In Alpha news, we wanted to give a heads-up to Users about an upcoming change when Alpha ends. The current plot involving Cecie will be leaving, making room for an updated plot. Don't worry, there will still be ways to obtain a Zabeu, just note that the current plot will be inaccessible as it's being reworked!

It's that time again, time for Team Contest Sign-Ups! As always, there will be four teams: Blue Audril, Green Trido, Red Dovu, and Yellow Sharshel. This contest is open to anyone, so be sure to sign up if you want to throw down!
To sign up, make a post on this thread declaring that you want to join. After registration, Staff will randomly assign everyone to a team. Note, if you have been part of a previous Team Contest, Staff will try to put you into a different team than before so you can unlock Items and Avatars you might not have.
Sign-ups close June 6th at 23:59 IcePets Time, so put your name down if you want to participate! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask, and get ready for some restocking mania!
Once you have signed up, know that the Team Contest will end on June 26th at 23:59:59 IcePets Time, in case you would like to plan your strategy ahead of time.

Team Contests are starting soon, so get ready to join in! It is a Team Restocking Contest, and as always, there will be four teams: Blue Audril, Green Trido, Red Dovu, and Yellow Sharshel. You'll be assigned to a Team to support after signing up!
As a restocking contest, the goal is to restock (purchase) the most Items. Buying Items from any NPC shop will net points for your team at a rate of 1 point per purchase. However, you must participate to a reasonable extent to be eligible for prizes -- simply one purchase won't work! So be ready to jump into the restocking frenzy!
Participating members of all teams will recieve points at the end of the event to spend in the Team Contest Shop, but the winning team will recieve additional Contest Winner points for special prizes. You have to play to win, however, so get ready to go crazy with it!

The votes have been tallied, and it's time to announce the winners of Member of the Month (MOTM for short)! For this month's Yet to Win MOTM, everyone congratulate...
Thank you for making IcePets a better place! Here are our favourite things about jirachi100:
- jirachi100 is a really kind member and a great person to chat with around the site. - I think jirachi100 deserves to be recognized as one of the members who has also been a great help with finding bugs in alpha!
Next up, the winner of the Free for All MOTM, please congratulate...
Thank you for your continuing contributions to our community! Here are our favourite things about RiverStarr:
- RiverStarr is a longtime member who is always there to offer advice and help when they can. - I see RiverStarr around the site almost daily. If you need help and contact her, she is always willing to do so to the best of her ability!
Both of these fantastic members will receive 100,000 IcePoints and either the exclusive Member of the Month Avatar, or, if they already have it, the Honoured Member Trophy.
While member votes were tallying for MOTM, Staff votes tallied for SOTM, and this month's winner is...

This June, new Items can be found in the I.C.E Shop for the duration of the month! Head on over to pick up the new Decorated Graduation Cap and Handmade Graduation Doll, as well as the returning Enchanted Moss Shield, for 500 IceCash (or 450 IceCash for Gold Members)!
Each month there will also be two regular Items introduced into the NPC shops. For June, find a Graduation Cake in Sugar Rush, and the Acheevo as a new Companion in Dr. Samuel's Toy Shop. The Graduation Cake will begin to be requested in the Candy Quest in one week's time.
The ice is melting around much of northern Terrafrost, and that means the Token Booth is changing stock! Head on over and pick up the new Beach Towel Stamp, Water Fan Spray Bottle, and Basking Cobron Figurine, as well as the Summer Goodie Bag containing items from previous years!
