Happy New Year to all of our wonderful Users. We hope 2020 will be a great year for all of you! Thank you so much for your continued support and for sticking with us through some rocky times. IcePets wouldn't be the site it is without our amazing community!



Pinata Mania is open and ready for you to smash open some pinatas! You can try your luck at finding one of the new Pinata Items or grab a few consolation prizes in your search. The game ends once the Pinata Item is found and a new game will start every half hour. Your last day to smash pinatas will be January 22nd, 23:59:59 IcePets Time, so smash as many Pinatas as you can!



Some previous Pinata Mania Items will be making their way into the mix, so keep your eyes peeled. As a note, using a UHD from the I.C.E Shop will reduce the cooldown time for smashing pinatas.




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...

@brokenribbon

Thank you for making IcePets a better place! Here are our favourite things about brokenribbon:

- - She hosted one of the giveaways this month and I was shocked to see she hadn't been nominated before! She is a very kind and thoughtful member, always there to help.
- Brokenribbon is always running giveaways, helping people out, and I saw her post suggesting a quest event once a day every month. I liked that! She deserves some recognition.



Next up, the winner of the Free for All MOTM, please congratulate...

@Nati

Thank you for your continuing contributions to our community! Here are our favourite things about Nati:

- She did an amazing job helping those who wanted to be pinged for the Advent Calendar and she kept the thread updated really quickly.
- Nati did a great job getting everyone in a festive spirit! They definitely deserve the recognition for it.



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.
