OOh, do my eyes read correctly? (hrmm, that's quite unlikely actually...) But anyways, I think Pinky just said that we are in the process of writing a quiz!

Think I'll have to jump over to the Ravenclaw common room and check it out!!!

The quiz has been completed and sent to Paul, you can expect it to appear here any time now!

I'd like to wish (on behalf of the entire Ravenclaw House) good luck to Slytherin, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor! Have fun with the questions, we sure did! :D

Here it is! Ravenclaw's carefully crafted questions in the Harry Potter Quiz have been finalized and here they are...
  1. Whom does Hagrid narrowly miss concussing?
  2. What is the staircase Harry takes to charms made of?
  3. Which people are known to have worn Harry's invisibility cloak alone?
  4. Which girls have kissed Harry?
  5. Who wears long green gloves?
If it's OK with everyone, I'll set the deadline for answers as 11.59 PM UTC/GMT on Wednesday 17th March 2004. This gives everyone an extra day more than the one-week deadline which was the original time period in the quiz last time, so as to give all Houses a good chance at answering. :) As always, please discuss the quiz answers in your Common Rooms only and not in this thread. By keeping discussions to your Common Room, you'll ensure that your answers are private and kept away from the eyes of the other houses. :) Once you've finalized your discussions, your House Prefects will need to post your final answers in your Common Room at any time before the deadline, which I'll collect.

Each question is worth 2 House Points to each of the answering Houses of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Slytherin. For each question that these houses answer correctly, the 2 points will go to the answering house. However, if a wrong answer is given to a question (or no answer at all), Ravenclaw, being the house who set the quiz, will be awarded the 2 points.

For each question, as well as the correct answer, you'll need to give a location in the books where the answer can be found (this is to safeguard against simply looking the information up on the internet). The location should be in the form of: Book name, country version (for example UK or USA version), chapter number, and page number.

Good luck and have fun discovering the answers.
:double jump:
