<blockquote>
 
<p>As many hunters have already noticed, a familiar airship has been spotted flying in from the North East. Aboard the infamous ship is none-other than [[Ronza]] the traveling merchant!</p>
 
 
<p>Ronza is flying into the wind and carrying lots of supplies making her flight slow but steady. She hopes to make landfall sometime next week.</p>
 
 
<p>You can track Ronza's progress towards Gnawnia yourself by clicking the full map link located on the Travel Page. Her final destination is the empty spot just south of the Gnawnia Castle.</p>

You can walk into a 7-11 in Singapore and purchase a scratch card with the MouseHunt logo right ON it for plain old cash! I just think that's so cool!!

=== Mysterious Box Changes ===
 
''{{date|30|September|2009}}''
 
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
<p>From very early on we have always welcomed the constructive feedback and suggestions of players. It's the input of players that helps make sure things are both fun and challenging for everyone.</p>
 
 
<p>Based on constructive suggestions, we have changed how hunters may obtain a Frozen Scroll. Going forward, every Acolyte mouse will drop a Frozen Scroll along with the Mysterious Box. The contents of the box have been slightly changed, also based on the feedback of players.</p>
 
 
<p>For those who have already opened their boxes, the King will be awarding them with either a Mysterious Box or a Frozen Scroll. If you have never had a Frozen Scroll you will receive one and if you have had a Frozen Scroll in the past then you shall receive a Mysterious Box. This way each hunter involved receives one free item.</p>
 
 
<p>We appreciate that many players liked things how they were, but we feel this is a change that is welcomed by the majority of players. Some players have asked the question: "Who are the developers? You, or the players?" The answer is both. We see the community as a member of the development team and have always reached out and welcomed the suggestions and ideas of players.</p>
 
  
<p>If you are hunting an Acolyte or Dragon mouse, then you no doubt have enjoyed the previous game content that lead you to these new goals. This content you enjoyed to get where you are was made in the same way, using the feedback of the players to adjust existing content and features.</p>

==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ====
 +
Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
  
<p>A big thanks to everyone who shared their constructive suggestions! The players are what make MouseHunt great!</p>
+
After the relentless barrage of Hailstones from the brave hunters of Gnawnia, the Frost King's icy powers are waning and the Great Winter Taiga is beginning to thaw.
  
<p>Along with a Frozen Scroll or Mysterious Box, players may notice another smaller, more cuddly item in their inventory. We were able to get an early supply of this item, but if you didn't get one, don't stress... We're sure a larger shipment will arrive by air sometime soon.</p>
+
Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.

=== Dracano Feedback ===
 
''{{date|30|September|2009}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>Hello MouseHunters!</p>
 
  
<p>You may have noticed the footnote at the bottom of the [http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/updatepost.php?upid=148 previous news update] regarding Dracano asking for your input and suggestions. I wanted to make a post to help focus the feedback and organize the thoughts of everyone.</p>

<div style="text-align: left; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em"><div style="text-align: center; font-size: 115%;">'''The Great Winter Hunt has entered the shutdown phase'''</div>
  
<p>There is definitely some frustration in having to possibly catch multiple Acolyte mice to tackle Dracano. We're looking for your opinion on how you think it would be best to obtain a Frozen Scroll.</p>
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
 +
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
 +
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
<p>Here are a couple of popular suggestions that are feasible, let us know what you think.</p>
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
 +
*Golems can still be built and sent out
 +
*Cinnamon can still power the Forges in the Golem Part Workshop
 +
*Hailstones can still be fired at the Ice Fortress</div>
  
:<p>Remove the Frozen Scroll from the Mysterious Box and have the Acolyte drop both a Frozen Scroll and a Mysterious Box. Hand out Frozen Scrolls to anyone who had previously caught an Acolyte and did not get a Frozen Scroll.</p>
 
  
:<p>Make available another, slightly less powerful Draconic trap that can be obtained in a more straight-forward manner.</p>
+

<p>These changes may also require some adjustment to the quantities of items in the Mysterious Box as well as the difficulty of catching the Dragon.</p>
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
  
<p>New gameplay elements are currently developed and decided upon by surveying groups of players and then putting those changes into play testing with a group of beta testers. In the coming weeks we are going to be increasing this survey pool to include a broader range of active, passive, experienced and less experienced players in hopes of obtaining a wider range of feedback. The end goal is to include as many players as we can in an organized way.</p>
+
After the event ends, the following items will melt away and be '''removed from your inventory''':
 +
*Golem Parts
 +
*Animated Snow
 +
*Reinforced Ice Shards
 +
*Compressed Cinnamon
 +
*Hailstones
 +
*Firework Sugar Cookies
 +
*Magical Holiday Scarf
 +
*Golem Gift Box
  
<p>MouseHunt has always relied on the feedback of players to fine-tune game aspects and develop ideas for new content. We're looking for your constructive suggestions on how to keep MouseHunt both challenging and fun!</p>
