  1. Hey Ladies and Gents! Today's task is quite simple. I will give you a list of FIFTEEN Quotes. Working as a team you must decide what Book and what Chapter you think they are from. You get one mark for the book and another for the chapter. Houses will then be ranked and given points dependent on that! First: 100 points Second: 75 points Third: 50 Points Fourth: 25 points. YOU MUST NOT USE THE BOOKS A very important part of this task is working it out, not finding the answer. These are meant to be difficult. Any cheating that I found about will lead to your House getting no points from this task and having 100 points deducted. You must have worked these out by 4…

    Hey Guys! I totally forgot to post these. As this deals with stuff from HBP, I figured we could discuss it in one thread. Firstly, Snape. Good or Bad? Double Agent or is he working for himself? This was one of the most interesting questions posed by HBP. Many fans remain divided. What do you think? Why? Dumbledore, Dumbledore, Dumbledore. We discuss this very regularly on the Blue Boards. Dead or alive? Coming back? Dead as a Dodo? What do you think? Charis, you can now state your opinion and I won't mock you (much :D). Why do you think this? What evidence is there in the books? What are all your opinions?

    Books Four and Five started the trend of longer Harry Potter Books. It demonstrates the transition the story goes through as they tend to deal with darker, deeper and slightly more adult themes. However, some people find these books a turn off. Why is this? Is it the length or the fact that Harry spends all of OotP being angsty? ;) What do you think? Do you like them or do you prefer others in the series?

    The Harry Potter films are some of the biggest films in History. They provide an alternative route for people to explore the Harry Potter world. Some people dislike the movies whilst others have only seen them and have not read the books. Do you like them? What do you think of the book to film transition? Would you have done it differently?

    Hey Guys! Sorry this has been delayed! I got back from London and after staying up ALL night (talking about deep, philosophical things) followed by travelling across the country, the thought of doing this yesterday made me feel more like hugging my ibuprofen and energy drink than ever. Plus, Rome was on last night and I needed to conserve energy! Anywhoo, today’s challenge is easy! Ish. I am assuming many of you will be going “Huh? She COULD have posted this yesterday!” to which I will reply “I was sleeepppyyy”. Talya will understand :p Anyhow, it’s a Caption contest! It is designed to test your comedic skills! *grins* Just have a go! Each House gets a separate…

    There was a death in my family Sunday Night so my activity this week will be less than usual as we prepare for the Funeral on thursday and family is in and out of my house. I should be back in the full swing of things come monday at the latest. If anyone needs to get a hold of me, send a PM as I'm not sure if I'll see it anywhere else. I'll try to keep informed with the important threads and work on the commitments i've made, however that will most likely be to the extent that i'll be active.

    Your Mother hands you your first pot of anti-ageing cream. Yes, that happened to me this morning. I am 18 next month so I'm not quite sure I need it. Her excuse was that it's Oil of Olay and it was expensive, thus someone needed to use it. Personally, I think she was hinting that I look old. You know this will be me in a years time, headscarf and all! http://www.danheller.com/images/Europe/Portugal/People/old-woman-big.jpg

    Well I posted this on the other board, until I discovered that this is the new and correct board, so I'll try again. :) Most of you probably don't remember me, as my time here previously was brief. Only a couple of months. However I'm finding myself once again with more time to surf the net as what I do at work has changed and I find myself with lots of downtime and nothing to do. As it's been about a year since I was here last, I assume I need to apply with a new bio for my character and start the process all over, correct? Also, anything big, new, and different happen in the last year that I should know about?
