Sadly, we do not have an actual news channel. That would be cool, but that would mean buying a channel, hiring staff, and blah blah blah. Anyways, this board is for updates on the site, whether regarding IC or OOC events. Please check each new thread here, for some may need members to give feedback on them.

Whether your are new to the site or leaving for a period of time doesn't matter. What matters is that you tell us! We love greeting new meat members, and getting a heads up when someone leaves is always helpful.

Tired of being forced to post already? Do not worry, everyone gets that way! Just sit back, relax, and play a few games in the lounge. Keep all games and discussions PG, please!

Many people have many characters. The best way to keep up with them is by created one thread with all of their character(s)' infromation, relationships, etc. in it. Each character should get one thread.

Many characters carry around a diary--or, as the males like to say, a journel. It doesn't matter whether your character is human or a Pokemon, we will just say that they can all write. Please keep it one diary/journel thread per character, and please link the thread into your character's log.

In the heart of the city, with streets converging from north, south, east and west at the TV tower on its east end, lies Odori Koen Park, the symbol of Sapporo. Flower beds, fountains, a lovely stream, monuments and sculptures such as the "Black Slide Mantra" by the late world famous sculptor Isamu Noguchi, can be found here. The park is a part of everyday life for the citizens of Sapporo, and every day, droves of company employees can be seen sitting on benches enjoying their lunches.

Oh, yes, because we all love hanging out near television towers. A 147-meter tower with an observatory standing in the eastern end of Odori Park that runs in an east-west direction in the central area of Sapporo City.

Marui Imai is a large department store that has been serving in Hokkaido for over one hundred years. This large building has beautiful scenery, great food, and amazing items for sale. Many of the cosmetics they sell there are highly valued by overseas buyers. Marui Imai is great for both shopping and just taking a rest.

Susukino is the largest nightlife district north of Tokyo, boasting approximately fourty-five hundred restaurants, bars and entertainment facilities, along with a number of Hokkaido's leading places for gourmets, such as Ramen Yokocho (Ramen Row). Recently, sauna facilities and hotels that offer natural hot spring baths have become popular. Because the district has many fashionable cafe bars and "hideaway" restaurants, groups of women can come for drinks and feel safe. On the other hand, men should watch out for "customer-pullers" that try to lure them into expensive bars.

The Jozankei Hot Spring Resort is located deep within Shikotsu Toya National Park, where it's surrounded by mountains. It is conveniently located only fourty to sixty minutes by car from the Sapporo city center, so you can indulge in a hot spring experience and return to Sapporo on the same day. Of course there are plenty of accommodations available featuring hot springs, ranging from large luxury hotels to bed-and-breakfast style Japanese ryokan (inns). Relieve your weariness by relaxing in a luxuriant chloride hot spring spa springing forth from quartz porphyry faults.

All middle class homes can be found here. These range from large apartments to two story houses.
