Clash of Champions!
The Sun glistens, but you feel a light breeze brush against the sweat beading on your forehead. You stand determined, if not entirely steady, gazing into the eyes of your opponent. The cheers of the crowd rise, as the referee counts down, the weight of your weapon heavy in your hands… Many of you will have fond memories of beating a dear friend round the head with a gladiatorial stick, or throwing them out of an arena with a strange mixture of glee and rage. Either Sumo or the Gladiatorial sticks have become a staple of the festival area at Tokonatsu, giving you a chance to settle old scores, or…

History of Tokonatsu
Greetings all! We are looking to put together a little something for this coming Tokonatsu, but we need some help from all you lovely past toko-goers. Essentially, we are putting together a History of Tokonatsu hall, but we need material to add to it. Sooooo if anyone has anything they would like to donate to the effort, we would greatly appreciate it.

Toko-Retreat Competition Winners
So, Tokonatsu for another year is over, it is likely we are all done with our travel, and are now settling into normal life (or as close to) once again. Though we had fewer attendees this year due to aliens abducting over 100 of them, I think I can speak for most of us when I say this was one of the best Toko’s yet. For us at Toko-Retreat, this was largely due to the amazing response we had to the events we hosted. A big thank you to Myst and the Committee for the massive amounts of support given to us, and for asking us to be a bigger…
