06/10/08 - I got a note back from ~ManuelMishonu, where she told me that she's too busy to keep up with this club.
And, since the other moderator has decided to quit, this leaves me on my own.
Therefore, I have decided to close this club down. There are barely any active members left in here and the club needs a serious clean up. Plus, I'm already a moderator over at ~Junangeki, so I can't keep up with this place. Which, in other words, means;

KYO-LOVE IS HEARBY OFFICIALLY DEAD. I'm sorry, guys.

If you want to, you can always join , my new Kyo club. It's new, fresh and filled with active members.

With this, I now leave you guys. It's been a pleasure to moderate this club for you!


And sorry about leaving the contest hanging like this. I know some of you have worked hard on your entries, but it can't really be helped.

// *Sato-ri.

9/28/05- My entry to the chibi Kyo contest has been entered. Waiting for one more before I can close the contest. (If you're working on one, note me or comment to this journal entry so the contest won't close before you bring it in. I'd be happy to have 2, 3, or even 4 more entries!)
9/26/05- I ( ~ManuelMishonu ~_^) have decided to join the contests too. Partly due to low turnout, but also because now I have more free time on my hands then the first few weeks of school. Come enter the contests if you dare to face me. ( I'll play fair.) May the best entries win! This means that the mod pick awards will be solely judged by ~dudeitstegan . Remember, even though we haven't come up with the prizes yet doesn't mean you won't get public recognition among our 80-some members if you win.
Also: We need your help! Note us with contest ideas! Note us with new possible affiliates that you come across! Prize ideas are most appreciated (because obviously I have no ideas! )
9/25/05- 83 members! Wow! Our contests are still open. Hope to see some wonderful entries!
9/22/05 - 1 entry so far for the chibi Kyo contest. 1 entry has been submitted for the Hot News contest.
9/21/05 - What happened folks? The most popular pick of your own ideas and only one entry? I'm going to extend the deadline. I expect at least 4 more entries. ~_^ C'mon people, show me your Kyo Love!
9/8/05- Our first contest is beginning its end, and it has no entries so far. Remember, you can make more then one entry. Please participate and just have fun!
8/25/05 - who is this person and what is she doing in the kyo-love account?! yep, I updated (the other mod that never does anything). and am glad I did, cause we got 1 new member. ok, so I don't know when the last time the other mod updated the list was, but I do know that although only adding 1 person to the list saves me some unneeded effort, it also makes me sad. sad enough to waste all that effort typing this up. so go tell your friends, and if you don't have our icon up somewhere, you better put it up. or you'll die. soon.
8/20/05 - Our next contest has been decided!

NEWS (OLD)
03/06/07- [link] This link is about an artist having blatantly false charges of terrorism placed against him. It's obviously politcally driven to shut him up because he speaks out for the underdog and tries to let the public keep informed on important issues the US government would rather us remain ignorant and therefore complacent about.

You can see why it's important enough of a point to raise in a mostly unrelated club. (People like Kyo could get arrested for performing a concert that criticizes the government XP That's my reason for posting this and I'm sticking to it!)

Please fellow Kyo fans, read about it. If you're informed, you're already helping to protect your rights to legally criticize the US government (who really NEEDS to be criticized at the moment >_< ) .

This also gives me an idea for our next contest. Details will be provided at a future date.
~ManuelMishonu

03/01/07 - The voting for the contest is over! Aaaand; we have a winner! See the contest section below to see who won! Congratulations! *pats on the back*
If you ask me, I could've voted on three of the entries, but as I'm a mod, I haven't voted at all. XD All the entries are lovely!
Thank you to everyone who voted in the contest, and thank you to those who entered the contest!
Added one new member too!
02/26/07 - Keep voting, keep voting people! ;D
Added new members today! We're growing and growing!
02/24/07 - Voting is open and has been for a few days now, so continue to give us your opinions on the different contest entries! We've gotten some votes so far, but we need MORE! I mean.. with so many members, I'm sure at least more than 10 people have the time to give us some votes. So, continue voting!
(The voting will be open until the 1st of March.)
Added two new members today as well!
9/22/06- We have a winner by default. It's the only entry there. Look at our contest section for details.
9/02/06- Hey, ~ManuelMishonu reporting for duty once more! Anyway, our contest is still happening! Please submit if you have time. I know school just started for many of you out there, so I'm going to make the deadline September 23rd. (The first day of Fall, folks.) There's a new prize for the winners of our contest, as their picture will be displayed in our gallery for many to see. Exciting, huh? On another note, the creator of this club ~dudeitstegan is officially retiring as an administrator. One more thing. I added a "General Kyo Art Submissions" section, which yields no winning, nor is a contest. It is general Kyo art for display. (You can submit art by note). Have a nice day!
7/10/06-It's about time we had another contest! Hmmm....as for the theme??? It's summer time, and I know everyone usually hates their crappy summer jobs. SO! draw Kyo working a summer job(that has nothing to do with the band). Examples: fast food resturants, lawn care, etc. BE CREATIVE!
Due Date pending.
6/4/06- It has been confirmed that Dir en Grey will not be performing at the first three shows of the Family Values Tour in the United States, because they have a couple of Tokyo shows they were preschedualed for. link here: [link]
they are not coming to the States until August 4th.
-In other news, we have another moderator! Please welcome fatale16 as she will be helping out with a lot of the club duties.
5/29/06- Phew, finals are finally over for a lot of us, with still some remaining. I've got a job for over the summer, and so I'll leave you all in some capable hands. I'll be at camp all summer, so I don't know how much I'll be online. I'll miss you all though!
4/20/06- Thanks for voting everyone! Our final results are in, and the winners are below!
04/10/06- Please forgive my lag. We've officially got all of the entries up. Any votes before April 10th do not count. If you voted previous to April 10th, please vote again, and make sure to look at the lovely new entries while you're at it. There are several new entries to check out! Happy Voting!
03/29/06- Check out the entries! I've extended this contest by one week. Remember, you can submit more than one to increase your chances of winning. If we can have 2 more submissions (or more), that would be awesome.
03/09/06- A new contest has begun. It's a general contest, and the only theme is "Kyo", so it's basically a free for all. ~_^ We've also got a new affiliate and two new members.
02/26/06- Dir en Grey is playing in the USA. They're only making 3 stops. They're basically testing, because tours are expensive, and if they flop, they can really hurt profits. Anyway, They're stopping in California, Texas, and New York. I believe the Texas stop is industry only. The NY one sold out in a presale, and I'm not sure about the California one, but they probably sold out really quick too. Guess what though. Even though most of us fans won't be able to see them first time around, it means that they're very popular. That means they're definately coming back. I'll try to keep updated on when they're coming again.
02/03/06- Welcome to the new month! I, ~ManuelMishonu, am back. Sorry for the lateness everyone. I've been fighting off this cold. x.x We're starting a new contest soon, and if anyone has any ideas, don't be shy! Please note us! We have a new affiliate, and 4 new members.
01/20/06- I'm sick, spring semester just started, and my 20th birthday is on the 26th of this month. I'm taking a little break, just so you all know. You can definately still note asking to join, and I'll get to it when I get back, or Tegan might update. I'm not sure. Also, if you have any ideas, we're looking into the idea of a Spring Contest sometime in the near future. Please note us with any ideas you have. I'll be back soon. ~ManuelMishonu
ps: Speak Spanish? Love J-rock? Check out our newest affiliate.
01/14/06- We have a winner! Check out the contest section below! Also I had to move the members list to another area. T_T I'm proud to display you all, but it's hard to visit the main page with so many of you great dedicated members! We shall definately continue to show new members on the main page! Always remember to welcome our new members!
01/05/06- Talk about club spirit and Kyo love! You should all pat yourselves on the back. We've got a LOVELY amount of beautiful entries, even though this season can get so hectic. Many people have voted, and it makes me so happy. ;-; *sniff* Anyway, happy voting! We're accepting votes until the 13th, that is, next Friday night. Remember, your vote counts! Tell us who you think should win voter's choice!
01/03/06- Sorry for the lack of updates. I was busily bringing in the new year, and other such personal important things, and I'm sure Tegan was busy too. Anyway, the contest is offically closed today, and voting shall start.
1220/05- We have several new entries to the contest! Check it out below!
12/16/05- I can't believe I missed updating on the 100th member XD I had some wicked finals, but I'm back! Hey everyone! Make sure to enter our contest. I know you're busy drawing for other contests or buying presents or trying to survive finals, but hey, show Kyo what holiday spirit and Kyo love can whip up to make the season bright! ;D
12/15/05 - We now have over 100 members! #100 would be ! I think you deserve something special. Actually, the whole community deserves something special. Woohoo. PS Look at me I never update but I did yayay!
12/09/05- 98 members!
12/08/05- We have 97 members, and two entries to our holiday themed contest. We're still accepting entries, and I'm glad to see early entries!
12/06/05- Hopefully I'll get internet tomorrow. Enjoy the first entry to the holiday contest! Enter the holiday contest today! Also, we're almost at 100 members. Wow, maybe I should make a "members" section now. Heh heh.. The day we make 100 members, something special should be done. Like.. a happy surprise.
12/03/05- I'm still alive and kicking, but I'm having internet problems and Tegan won't update. If it looks dead in here, I'm sorry. Things might go slow. It's just my internet connection. Have faith, it will get better.
11/12/05- Check out our contest section for the holiday contest. Welcome our new affiliate. (Wow, we have a new affiliate! Ha ha )
11/08/05- I'm still working the details out with ~dudeitstegan about our next contest. I'd like you all to know I'm still alive and updating. I hope you all had a great holiday. How're you all doing? Good? Nothing else to update on. Hope you're all well. Oh, has anyone read any updates on Kyo?
10/24/05- Let's start a new contest. I'm currently brainstorming, so if anyone wants to input their ideas, they can note the club or comment on this journal entry. I have nothing solid as of yet, and Halloween can't be done this year because we'd need more time for the contest. I am leaning towards a holiday emotion theme. Also, welcome our newest members. We sure have a lot of them this time. XD
10/22/05- The contest is over. The voting turnout was dissappointing compared to 92 members. We only got 5 votes. The winner is announced below. The other contest is closed, due to low participation. (I'm sorry for the one person who entered.)
ATTENTION: Check our members section for a new rule about inactive deviant art accounts.
10/20/05- Please vote. We have no votes so far. Remember, you can vote for yourself, but only if you honestly believe yours is the best entry. Don't be biased! People worked hard in this contest. Thank you. Anyway, we've had 0 votes! That's right! Voting is supposed to end Saturday, b
