Kyatto here! Working super hard to make everything all nice and ~dazzley~ again!
First up to bat - Jury Duty! If you got notified that it's your time to fly, what are you sittin' around for? Move your tuchus! (If you have it, you need to review the canons ASAP!)
We also have some new staff amongst us! Nandireya and Kyatto join the ranks to help keep the forum running smoothly! And remember Dinky? She's now been promoted to Security!
And then there's… Zombie MONTH! which started on October 25th! Come on guys, where's the Zombie love? :( Did they already eat your brains?
The Plague looks like it's finally starting to die down! But don't think that means you still can't catch it if you're lurking around Ba Sing Se!
#LulasCouch chat night is now on Sunday. We can't handle typing and watching Glee at the same time. 8'D In place of the short lived Wednesday chat night, we now have Glee Skype Night. Every Wednesday at 8:30 PM EST. Add "eevachu" to your Skype contacts to join in.

And last, but certainly not least, Braaaaaaainz... I mean, Zombie Week starts on October 25th! Thus marking the first HT "Special Event"! It's so important it gets its own forum! Why am I shouting!?

Hola cats and kittens! If you haven't noticed yet, HT has got a bucket full of cannon characters up for adoption.
The application process is super-easy now, so if you'd like to take a metaphorical stab at some great characters like Hakoda, Haru, Pakku, and KUEI (HINT HINT ;) ... I miss my lil' nerd honey), just make a post to the cannon app board. If you have questions, just snag a mod and they can help!
Smoochies, Masu

You may have noticed by the new colour coordination, but HODAMN. Hou Tian is under new management now with 76% more pugs and porn!
So yes, other than Luck and I now being your co-lords and masters, some of the staff positions have been re-organized. Nothing really big, just a bit of colour-coordinating.
Underground Ba Sing Se is now a roleplayable part of the board. Why, I have no clue. ._.;
Since we gettin' all democratic up in here, there' gonna be Hou Tian-style Jury Duty. Jury Duty "is a Canon-Approval team of regular members that will switch out per every three canons you evaluate from time to time. Members will be chosen at random depending on seniority and posts counted." The current list of reviewer is here. NOW GO READ ABOUT IT MORE.

Re: Trying for a Canon Character « Thread Started on Sept 7, 2009, 5:35am »
Trying for a Canon Character Canon Character tryouts are done for a reason, we want the best possible person playing a canon character - someone who can not only play the character effectively but also grow with the character, and progress into the storyline effectively.
For each canon up for adoption, we will put up a small description, and a list of expectations for playing the canon character. Canons come with the responsibility to play them regularly - depending on their importance to the RP they may need to be played more often - so that the RP runs smoothly.
If you're planning trying out for a canon character, please be sure your properly fitted to the following requirements:
The Character you wish to play is not on the Taken Canons Roster. You are not already playing more than two Canon Characters already. We can rely on you to post at leastthree times a week, or two depending on the canon. You have no past offenses involving banning (on this site, only)/It has been 50 days since your last offense.
If you fit and checked all of the above, you're ready to try out for a Canon. Here's how:
Make sure that the character is available by checking either the Canon Applications or the Canon Char Adoptions boards. We don't need two of any character. :) If the desired character is already posted under Canon Character Adoptions, read the profile, and any specific expectations or instructions for them. Once you've gotten a good feel for the character, respond to the designated thread in the Canon Applications board by composing a Roleplay sample about 2-3 paragraphs long. Once you've posted in your try-out, it will be evaluated by two Review Board members, and three Moderator Staff there after. If the Review Board has not gotten to you in over a week, the moderator staff will begin the voting process. When the evaluations are tallied, the winner will be announced in the application thread. The Mods will tell you where to go from there.
If you don't get the character, don't fret. It doesn't mean you're a bad roleplayer, it just means you may have to work on your execution a little better for next time :)
Any questions or concerns can be posted to the Q & A. Thank you!
