[Harry Potter Week 2018] Trivia Game

[Adella]

Welcome one and all!! 

 

Please, please, come in and take a seat. 

 

By posting here you're signing up for a fun filled fact-a-palooza of the Harry Potter variety!! 

There will be Weezleys, witches, and werewolves.

We have pixies, pustules, and Percy.

And don't ever forget the Dementors, Dursleys, and Dumbledore!

 

I will post each day new questions, and you can answer those questions by sending me a Private Message, so as not to ruin the fun for everyone else! Please feel free to banter, chit chat, read your Quibblers, play a game of wizard's chess, or whatever else suits your fancy to pass the time before the answers are revealed!

 

Rules:

No cheating! You may use your books or movies to find answers, but no Googling!

Play fair! Any accidental giving away of answers will lose you points!

Questions may be answered at any time until the winner is announced! That means if you come in on day 4 you could still win!

Have fun!!!!!!!
