hey liz63 or West.. am i allowed to submit another set of an icon and a siggy.... or am i allowed just one submission? b/c i don't like the set i sent West very much and i'd like to send a different one.
I'm guessing this pertains to spirit week. AKA, not Tokka. Please take stuff like this to PMs so we can keep the boards clean.

^actually Para Aanglover was referencing the contest that we are having for Tokka Week... and considering I was told that Tokka week was purely meant to be dealt with in the Tokka thread (my thread I made to inform everyone was locked and trashed in about 3 minutes) I think it's okay for her to ask that here....
The answer Aanglover is yes! But 2 is the limit we decided on.... love your enthusiasm (we need some more of it around here!
Sorry I missed yesterday!!!! I feel terrible for not reading any of the fics above and for not submitting any of my favorite fics/fanarts and such but I'm EXHAUSTED! I'll catch up tomorrow but I'm not sure I'll be able to figure out my favorites.... I guess I'll sleep on it.
And I know that the deadline for the contests was technically today but I'd be totally okay taking submissions tomorrow! And I never got confirmation on the Tokka Bash so that'll have to be postponed for the moment.
So get the Tokka juices flowing and SUBMIT! Just a reminder, PM fics to me, art to Kohana and graphics to West.

@liz: That seems fair. My mistake. Her post was a bit ambiguous, so I wasn't sure if it was just the spirit week, or something random, or Tokka. I apologize.

^no problem!
Everyone, I was wondering if you'd rather extend the contests another week because we've gotten next to no entries... I don't think it's worth judging with so few entries.

alright, then I guess we'll temporarily extend the Contests till next friday, a week from now. But I'm only doing it because I trust you'll get your butts into gear and submit! If I could make graphics or draw I'd do it buuuut I'm pretty challenged when it comes to art.
Today I think we're supposed to be talking about the way we'd end Tokka. I know that I claimed that the oneshot I wrote shortly after the finale was my perfect way of ending it and I still think it is. But it was pretty unlikely considering they actually got togethor and that just seems to unlikely for me.
I'd want Toph to tell Sokka. Tell him that she cared about him as more then a friend but that their friendship was still the most important thing between them. And I'd want him to understand, I mean really get it and be supportive even if it's awkward. And I think they're both capable of doing it... They care about each other enough to get past it.

hahahha not sure, but yes. There are 3 in fact. I guess I'll review for you and anyone else who didn't know. There's a fanfiction, fanart and graphics contest. PM your oneshots to me, your fanart to Kohana and your graphics (an icon/signature set) to West to be judged. The deadline was originally yesterday but considering the lack of participation I'm extending the deadline to a week from today just because we had next to no submissions. Updated New Allies if you're interested. There's next to no Tokka in this chapter buuuut I'm trying something new in one of my oneshots. I'm just writing blindly. Not thinking just writing Tokka. I honestly have no idea how it's going to turn out but I'll post it as soon as I'm finished (which will probably be within the next few hours) Anyways, here's chapter 3 of New Allies www.fanfiction.net/s/3922699/3/New_Allies

^Sounds good! here's my Tokka rambling i was telling you about above... keep in mind. I wrote this in twenty minutes plus the 10 it took for editing... without any thought put into it before hand. So don't judge to harshly.......... scratch that, you can say whatever you like about it. I can take it! www.fanfiction.net/s/3970553/3/Living_a_Fantasy

If I had more energy I'd read them tonight but I only got through the first one zerg... It was adorable, loved every second of it. I love how Sokka was acting so chill about it all but Toph knew better. You're writing is great by the way...
They should have gotten married too (damnit bryke! open your eyes!)
I'll read the rest tomorrow

Hey guys, sorry I've been absent for so long, I got over my internet addiction for a while. I'll try to get some graphics done but I cant make matching sets because I make up my graphics as they go along lol Make sure you all vote for Tokka in the Sukka vs Tokka poll because we all know its far superior lol (but seriously it is)

Extending the contests is a good idea. I've only received one fanart so far so maybe I'll get more within this week. Okay, I still needed to discuss some things for Tokka week. As for the first thing goes, I'd like to see a first hug between them. Toph and Sokka have had so many cute moments on the show (the talk, the blush, the gift, ...) that I really feel that a true hug would really fit. A hug is a classic sign of friendship and love xD, and we all know how close they are. What I would have liked as ending was Toph wanting to go back home but afraid to do so alone. So Sokka offers to come along with Toph to support her. And then before he probably heads of to the South Pole, they have a beautiful goodbye where they say they'll always be friends. ... Yes, it's cheesy. xD But I like it so much that I'm contemplating on writing a fanfic about it.

^oh please do it sounds lovely!
Any perfect Tokka endings would have to be Sokka saying she's still his best friend and a nice big hug. Going to the S.Pole is a great idea cus it allows for loads of linking arms and Tokka depandancy because she's blind on the ice. (personally I think she uses her blindness as an excuse lol)
