HOUSE CHAMPIONSHIP: Day Five

[Niamh Sedai]

Today, ladies and gentlemen, is a quiz. It is a BOOK quiz so those of you who have only seen the film may only be able to answer a few questions. BUT your House gets a point per correct answer! The idea is not to use the books, though I suspect some of you shall! Just do your best!

 

Simply use the form I shall post below, fill it in an email it to harrypotterweek@hotmail.co.uk

[Vemynal]

Arn't us houses with lesser membership at an extreme disadvantage in most of these events due to only having 5 peeps?

[JenniferL]

I think she's assuming that Slytherin will cheat to make up the difference.

[Niamh Sedai]

Actually, things have been working out pretty fairly so far ;)

[Jhaenara]

Yeah, you're winning, stop complaining!   ;D

 

Lordie...  how do you answer some of these without looking at the books... ><.  *breaks the Blue Ajah tenants and reveals she's only read the books once*

 

We should put Paet to work on this since he's been slackin'...

[MsDanya]

so the whole House is sending in one form? teamwork yes?

[F Horn of Valere]

lol Kath, I think I won't be much help in this one except for a couple of them...

[chillimous]

Done. Rather proud that i remembered as much as i did. Alas, the house with Mia in will win. :p

[Niamh Sedai]

Individual entries  :)

[JenniferL]

Well crap. Hufflepuff is screwed on this one, unless Mia's allowed to enter. Hopefully we can make up the points elsewhere.

[Jhaenara]

Yeah, I just reread the questions and can't answer even one of them...  :( 

[Charis alAslan]

Lol! *hugs Jhae*

Wait - can Heads of House compete?  ???

[Niamh Sedai]

Of course  ;)

[Niamh Sedai]

Loreina wrote it! Blame her! And just try! I mean, the least you can do is get it wrong!  ;)

[Loreina]

MMMwwwahhaaahaaa!

 

This is where we separate the pretenders from the hardcore HP fans!

 

Actually, I thought people would use the books anyway, so I wanted it to be challenging.  :-[

And the answers to several of them are in both the books and the movies. ;)

 

Just be glad Nia isn't deducting a point for every wrong question! And that I'm not helping the huffies.  :'(

 

[Zardi]

Sorry, but when is this due? I didn't see a deadline in the first post.

 

From skimming through this, I do know some of them, so I'll get to work :)

[Jhaenara]

No, Loreina, it's good!  :D  You knew people would be using their books, so better to make it challenging.  I just don't have a good memory for those kinds of details... lol.  And with having a three year old to watch, I wouldn't be able to skim the books in the time period.  Unless Nia wants to extend it since she didn't post a time limit... ?  ;D

[Loreina]

Thanks Jhae!

Maybe people could divide the list and then PM each other with the answers (but you didn't read it here).

;)

[Niamh Sedai]

Okay, owing to test difficulty, you can use the books  ;) And I'd like it by 4pm GMT tomorrow  :)

[chillimous]

Oh for god's sake. I didn't use the books. ._.

[U4ea]

*applauds loudly and heads for the ones she couldn't answer off the top of her head* ;)

 

And I'm glad we can participate, because I am. *laughs* period! Can't make me not play... :P

 

*ducks*

[Jaydena]

*runs off to answer* How long do we have Nia?

[Minuet]

I have no clue with the time change, but I sent in mine. Oh, and I didn't have 2 of the books. There is only one answer I was not to sure about.

Come on Hufflepuff we can do this!!! We are hardworkers after all.

*Huggles*

[Vemynal]

sorry, but Slytherin will win^^

[Zardi]

Just sent mine in :)
