The Tea Shop, AvatarNation OOC Community

Hello, Avatar fans.

We are bringing you some sad news tonight, after a lot of discussion, consideration and last-ditch attemps, we have decided to close the game. It has been fun and had great potential, however we have steadily lost characters, had low activity and have had little luck drawing in new players and sparking activity in players. Because of this, we are going to acknowledge the successes of the game and let it come to an end here. Thank you all for your creativity and contributions to the game.

For those who wish to re-use accounts, we have provided an unfriend-all button. We wish you luck in your future games!

Sincerely,
The Avatar Nation Mods

Hey guys,

After some thought, I'm going to be leaving the game. With all I have to do to get into graduate school for this coming year, I don't have the time to devote to playing. I'm still wondering who thought it was a great idea to include math without the aid of a calculator on the GRE. GRR.

Mina has decided to leave the game for personal reasons, if you have questions feel free to ask. The Friends List has been updated once more.

Happy Halloween, we will be putting up a small thread to celebrate Spirits Day in-game!

I have some problems with how player concerns are being handled, so I am resigning from the game.

Hey guys, Spaz has decided to leave the game. The friends list has been updated, you know the drill. ;)

PSST! Lotus members, there's some new information you might find interesting. ;)

Ok gAang, we have lots to be said. Some rather big plot is going to start unfolding soon. Or rather, it's already started but it's going to be snowballing shortly, so watch out! We also have some new pages added to the mod journal/game info. ( Cut becuase this is long )

Slightly delayed mod post, but please welcome Spaz, who will be playing our Fire Lady, Zahira. She is found at supportingflame and the freinds list has been updated appropriately.

And yes, the graphics on the sidebar are all wonked. I'll be fixing them ASAP, but that's not going to happen until after they fix themselves because I apparently no longer have those graphics saved on my computer. So hang in there and the page will be looking pretty again in the very near future, I can only hope.

Uhm, hello everyone!

My name is Spaz and I will now be playing the Firelady for your Firelord. Zahira doesn't get out all that often but I will certainly strive to do my best for everyone.

It's nice to meet you all!

And the promised brother is here! Ji is Jene's older brother and a little more laid back. He is Mari's pup and can be found at solochvarande. Once again, the friends list is updated!

Hey gang,

David is bringing in his last character, Jene (pronounced "Gin") who is a rough and tumble street kid from the Earth Kingdom. He's a pretty strong bender, will be joined by his brother shortly, and his info can be found at benderjene. These two will be bringing in some new plot to the game, so keep an eye out for that! For now, be sure to update your Friends Lists.

I've got school kicking my ass at present, what with an exam this weekend and a group project from hell due a week from today. So any festival stuff with Azhar and Cheng (because I heartily plan on doing stuff with both) will be backdated.

Hey gang!

So here's the news, we have lost two players/four characters, Elle and Sly have both been removed along with their characters. That said, we have good news as activity has gone way way up! We are excited and thank you all for your participation.

We have a few open threads for those of you who are looking for a thread to jump into:
With Zuma
With Sakari

Mari is also going to be working to put together a page with more info on the regions in the city as well as shops, hours, descriptions, employees, etc. and we need your input on them! Please feel free to contribute where your character works, a place you'd like to see/think we should have, etc.

Thus far we have:
The Earth Kingdom clothing store
The Jasmine Dragon
Cheng's shop
The Zoo
The Theatre
The fighting schools
The Academy (Preparatory school)
The Bathhouse
A meat stand
Hospital

Please add in ideas you have, things you'd like to see, things your character would like to see, etc. Let's build up the city a bit more so everyone can feel more comfortable with the setting.

Also, due to the earthquake, the Fall Festival was delayed. The good news is, the city is stable and so the festival is going to take place next week! Starting Monday the festival will start, with lots of performances, competitions and of course, carnival foods! Get your party clothes ready, and feel free to throw out ideas for the festival right here! Thanks again for all your contributions to the game!

Hey gang,

Just a reminder that activity has been pretty low, and we don't want to have to start kicking people for it. :( Don't forget to tag into opens or start your own threads!

Taro still has an open sub-thread at the earth quake here.
Bass says he'd welcome more than one customer at a time at his tea shop threads, and one of which is here.
Sato has an open thread at the Sword and Fan, cleaning up here.
And Xiu Mei is at the city center here.

If you've lost interest or just aren't feeling the game anymore, that is just fine, no one is going to be mad, we just need a heads up and we will happily remove you. We would prefer a small, active game than a big cast with no activity, and sadly this is what we currently have. So keep being awesome! We have several Chibender characters now, so we'd love to let them start exploring their powers and impacting the game.

Hey all, some personal stuff's come up so I'm probably going to be away for the next two weeks.
See y'all then.

Hello everyone!

I'm Hailey and this girlie is Gia. She's a non-bender, and she works at the zoo actually. She's a caretaker and she helps the animals when they're sick generally too. She knows her herbs for them and whatnot. She's single, mostly because she's not very tame at times. She likes to be free most of the time. Sometimes she seems to get along with animals better than people.

I'm looking forward to playing with you all!

Hey gag, we have a new face! Please welcome Hailey, who is bringing us Gia, a non-bender who will be working at the zoo! She is found over at giaofthezoo and has lots of plot lines open. Please send her a warm welcome and update your freinds list!

Also: don't forget to jump into open threads! Mimi still has an open pre-earthquake thread here!

As you may have seen, we have our first event taking place here! A starter has been posted, this is the basic overview of what is happening to the city, the thread is open to everyone in the game. Don't forget to add your character's name to the thread so it counts to your activity. ;) Feel free to start a new sub-thread on it, or hop in with someone else. Sub-threads of two to three characters interacting seem to work best, letting things move more quickly than having to wait and wait for everyone to tag. Feel free to start a sub thread with a title of "Open to:" if you want to interact with someone specifically.

Here's your chance to see some action and let your character do what they do best. Dive in and fight the quake, pull people out of buildings, or be hurt and need to be rescued, entirely up to you. Wander out with a green face mask in a bath robe? That works too! Use this opportunity to steal from wrecked houses? Go for it! Earthbenders can also focus the next few days on fixing up the city, as it is going to need some repair! This is not extreme enough for the city to entirely fall apart, injuries are sure to happen but this would only have resulted in a few deaths, so it's not an entire city-shattering crisis. Just enough to leave people a bit shaken and give characters a good bit to do. ;)

Hope you all have fun with this!

Hi everyone,

I know I have tags and I'm going to get to them. ♥ I just wanted to put a note up that my onlineness is going to be sporadic because of the lovely combination of school/work. Weekends are my better times, so you should actually see more of me.

My plan, too, is to make poor Azhar some icons this weekend. I've got the pictures, now I just need the time to play with them.

<3 Mina

It's still limited. Moreso during the week since I'm using my brother's adapter until I get a new one. I had to order it instead of buy it from the store because it would have been nearly double the cost to get it in the store.

This means I will be very slow at tagging except on Saturday when I can use my mom's computer. I'd say Sunday as well but I'm throwing a friend a bridal shower this weekend.

Hey guys! I'm just saying that I'm sorry for being MIA this week - it's been hectic at work and I've been running around in RL. I should be back to posting regularly tomorrow night and this weekend!

And on that note, does anyone want threads? I need places to throw Kaja and Isska!
