Why don't you take GP.
Your GP or your HP? :D

Hmm... *takes both*

He'd like it. I'm happy in the minors.
Inlé: Triple A?
Johnny: What?
Inlé: The minors.
Kut: I call shortstop!
Alec: Fitting enough...
Spike: I'm a player!
Inlé: ...
GP: What? Are we playing?
Spike: I've playing the field!
*everyone stops and stares*
Inlé: Right. You're out in left field...
Kut: Literally or figuratively?
Spike: Who made you coach?
Inlé: *looks at Spike* ... probably figuratively

hey, speak for yourself. I'm gonna stay outta here until there's a potter-related question that Inle posts.
See you in a few weeks then.
Oh Frank!!! ~♪

Frank is my pet Balrog who does my evil bidding and grocery shopping.

And both of us dislike insinuations that we are not posting questions fast enough. Especially when we don't even deserve it. :D

Don't make me hit Frank's cage door's control with a discarded skull, sending massive spikes jutting into his back whilst you run out in a wacky headress weeping for your lost pet.

these questions are being posted plenty fast. if you don't believe me, drive the delorean parked outside 88 miles per hour and go back 2.73 years. once you do that, sit and wait for a question

answer: no it is not. everyone knows creamy italian dressing is what makes it love; thousand island just makes a mess.

guys, the one thing you need to learn is to think before you post your "spam." the back in the day stuff that alec and i were referring to, was actually intelligent conversation that was just in the wrong place. what this has turned into is merely post count raising drivel. the occasional one or two posts might be fine, but this is getting out of hand.

JohnnyRush
July 23rd, 2006, 05:33 PM
Even though I'll still cower under the might of the ban stick, I have to ask, what's the big deal? I haven't seen too many attempts at intelligent conversation, just in-jokes between older members and throwback trivia that too is mostly in-jokes.

And don't tell me the teasing post made by you was any better than the "drivel" we post. Unless you want to start calling it cheese.

i have decided to draw the line. either you listen to me as a moderator of this forum or you listen to me as a super-moderator at this site. either way, i said it is time to tone it down a little and that is what we will do.

Inlé_rah
July 23rd, 2006, 06:49 PM
I think we all know that the present situation is becoming unpleasant for us all, in one way on another. By tone it down, I would ask us all to restrict comments between question to stuff relating to the score, the quiz, and at the very least Harry Potter. This is a public quiz on a public forum. Not a gentlemen's club.

You were. When I updated the scoreboard, I went ahead and posted a question out of habit. I'll go delete that now, on the odd chance that no one has answered it yet. If not, I'll update again. Without a question. :D

The very odd chance indeed...

Inlé_rah

1. Your question indicated the singular, not the plural.

2. Shield hats were the only ones mentioned explicitly. While the follow up explanded line of products could have been sold in bulk to the ministry, it is never stated than any of those items actually were.

3. Most importantly, Alec (or someone else) would have jumped on it much quicker if they'd actually thought I was wrong.

Inle, are the question jsut about the books? Or can I ask quesitons about the games too?

Inlé_rah
July 30th, 2006, 11:05 AM
Of course, now that Benzie is running it maybe we don't have to worry about being admonished for spamming up the thread.
Wouldn't count on it, champ.

Where is inle anyway?
Just the greatest waterpark in the States, s'all. I got back at 1am this morning. Now I'm hopefully off to watch the Astros lose. (Hey, I'm being realistic here.)

---

I think that we should keep things to what everybody knows. I mostly keep to the 6 books because I don't have FB and QttA, and I know that a lot of other people don't either. I will do a more basic question from the textbooks if I think it is easily researchable, but I myself have to look it up in order to ask it.

If you want to do film questions, I have no problem with them in one way because everyone has seen the same thing, but the problem with them is checking them is annoying, and the level of obscurity in questions taken from film can be a bit over the top. (Eg: What was Prof. Quirrel holding when McGonagall took Oliver Wood from DADA class? An iguana. Seriously now.) If you want to do the odd film question, I've no big problem with it, just try to keep that in mind and clearly denote that it relates to the film. Book/movies difference questions are also good.

Oh yes...

What was the last bit of news that Harry heard, before hearing a gun shot like noise?

AlecTrevylan006
August 1st, 2006, 12:19 AM
A helicopter had almost crashed in a field in Surrey is the last piece of news, famous actress divorced from her husband, and then Bungy the budgie learned to water-ski...

I'll say Bungy the budgie learning to water ski, but the last two aren't really "news" in my opinion >_>

Also, you need a scoreboard and should make sure you fully define the question. Sure, most people will know what you're talking about, but just to remove ambiguity :P

Why did Barty Crouch appear on the Maurauders map so often?

AlecTrevylan006
August 16th, 2006, 04:19 PM
SPOILERS!!!

Because "Professor Moody" was always on the grounds, was really Barty Crouch (Jr) and the map is not fooled by polyjuice potion.

However, the map does not feel the need to make the distinction between people with identical names with such trivialities as "Jr" "Sr" or "III"

D-Generation-X
August 16th, 2006, 09:07 PM
Well, he sort of explained it at the end, but it was because both the Crouches we're on the grounds until Sr. died, so they were seen more often.

AlecTrevylan006

Keep in mind that they didn't start at 1, they started at 24.

It wasn't defined as "put into effect during Order of the Phoenix". It was just "put into effect". The other ones were put into effect in the past even if we don't know about it.

28: "Dolores Jane Umbridge (High Inquisitor) has replaced Albus Dumbledore as Head of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." (OP28)

29: Filch: "But when Educational Decree number 29 comes in, Potter, I'll be allowed to do them things..." (OP28)
