Thanks! That's what I have to use. I abhor the mobile version.

Thanks for the info. I'll knuckle down and get the lesson out this weekend! Snape story I'm still lost on, but something may come to me. The Snape story deadline's bee extended to the 31st. we still have a chance to get a story in.

Spot the Difference Challenge Word Scramble Both of these challenges end tonight!

Check out 's pet Buttered who is the featured Pet Spotlight winner today! Slytherin pride. ^^

has posted a new cryptogram over in the Second Term Ball thread. Please stop by before the ball ends on Sunday, and enter the HA contest too.

You can sMail this decoded cryptogram for 10 House Points by the ball's end. "ANG X'DD LR ESPXAT S GRR LQRSP--GSWE, GHSE XZ HSJJRAXAT? ZNORNAR KSDD EHR HRSWOXZEQRZZ!"

argh the spot the difference is a pain! Ive found 5 so far...will try and get it done...thanks for the update!

I think there might be a typo in the cryptogram because I solved it and one of the words doesn't make sense. Also, Mary's inbox is full.

I think it's either a typo or is portraying the character as being really muddled. Thanks for doing it! :)

Oh good, it's not just me. I was like, um, that's not a word. But the letter was definitely solved, so /shrugs

has corrected the typo in the crytogram. Her inbox should be emptier now.

She's also posted a new Missing Items challenge. You can sMail her the answers for 20 House Points by the end of the ball.

Things that end this Sunday: Challenges - Reopened! Writing Challenge - Severus Snape - CSC prizes! Wizarding [Harry Potter] Second Term Ball [OVER] - & the aforementioned crptogram and missing item challenges.

thanks for all the info poppet! I appreciate it...(also was able to finish the find the difference challenge...thanks for the encouragement! :)

I really love these Writing challenges, it gets my brain pumping with ideas.

You're welcome and good for you!

That makes me happy. I'm roleplaying for the first time with Wizarding and I'm enjoying writing with all of you.

The Second Term Ball and its 5 associated challenges ( posted another one since my last update here, and will be posting the last one later today) have been extended to Tuesday night. Thanks for representing Slytherin House! <3

Latest ball challenge: "Time for another challenge! This time it's a writing challenge. Write a wizarding fairytale/children's story for Professor Morgan to tell. Each member may submit one story, and each story should be at least 200 words. Please sMail your stories to ! Each story submitted to meet the minimum word count will receive 15 House Points. Professor Morgan will choose one story each day for the remainder of the ball to tell all who want to listen in the tent (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). If your story is chosen, you will receive an extra 10 points!)

Ball Challenge - Get to Know Your Schoolmates I totally forgot to post the first challenge from the ball! Ping 3 people from other houses and ask them a question through Tuesday night.

Challenges - Reopened! The reopened challenges are the only things due tonight as the Snape writing challenge has been extended through February 7th.

I got that extra 10 points. WOOT WOOT! (But, I dont think a lot of people submitted fairy tales.)

Im hoping people are getting all my stuff...there was a mishap with Italia but we figured it out, (accidentally deleted one of my submissions) do the teachers check the ummm classrooms much? Like I did the potions assignment (2) and I dont know if the teach saw my post.

Congrats and well done!

Everything in the classrooms will be graded after Second Term ends February 13th. The House Cup winners will be announced and awarded after all the points are tallied. :)

has posted the final challenge of the ball here. It's due Tuesday night like the previous four. "Your challenge is to choose TWO SPELLS ONLY to shoot at the mountain troll. Don't worry, the headmistress's shield will hold until the troll is knocked out or the ball is over, whichever comes first! You will be graded on which spells you choose, so choose carefully and thoughtfully! Please bold your spells so they are easier to find. If you'd like to explain why you chose the spells you did, please do so in OOC comments. Each spell will be graded out of 10 points each for a maximum of 20 House Points. If you'd prefer not to partake in the roleplay but would like to participate in the challenge, please sMail your spells to ! Even if the troll is knocked out before the ball, you will still be able to sMail your spells to me before the ball ends Tuesday, February 2nd at 11:59PM. Good luck!)"

thanks again! I think I missed some crucial things because I started mid term. I appreciate all your help!

Hi fellow Slytherin, My name is Itachi and I would like to have have your help in defeating the other house. I know that it isnt hard to find atleast to spells on the HP wiki and at the very least send a smail to Mary. The points will help a lot. If we had a few people to participate in the ball challenges then we would wipe the other teams out of the competition.

The current points are Gryffindor - 138 Students - 5 Hufflepuff - 114 Students - 6 Slytherin - 137 Students - 7 Ravenclaw - 158 Students - 9

If we could get 3 people to all get 10 points we could be in the lead, this is not counting the latest challenge.

HA Challenge ends till Feb. 6th 20 Points I understand that HA's aren't for everyone.

Ask a Question to 3 Fellow Students From Other Houses ends Feb. 2nd Subeta 11:59pm 10 Points All you have to do is ask one question about any topic such as cats/dogs/pets/colors/shapes, anything that is a question.

Decode the sentence. Very Simple ends Feb. 2nd Subeta 11:59pm 10 Points

Missing Item Names and Their Fairy Tales ends Feb. 2nd Subeta 11:59pm Max 20 points, 2 points each item. You can submit Just the names of the Fairy Tales. Also, if you google search the image you can find it faster. (Helps to be a computer geek.)

Writing Challenge About a Fairy Tale ends Feb. 2nd Subeta 11:59pm Max 25/Min 15 points, 200 word minimum. Also, extra 10 points if chosen by the headmistress to read. I understand that writing is also not for a lot of people, but writing a fairy tale about your favorite one seems pretty easy.

Troll Fight ends Feb. 2nd Subeta 11:59pm 20 points, 10 points each spell. Like I said before you can go on HP wiki here and pick out two spells you think will help knockout the troll. Also, if you don't want to RP it then by all means please mail Mary Your answers.

Thank you very must for helping out in trying to take down the other Houses. Please send all your answers to , unless they are stated to post them like the fist two.

P.S. how do we get those cool Forum Signatures that have our name and house with the colors?

@ ItachiSiller Ask someone who has one? I'm sure you can get what you're looking for commissioned.

I won't ping the group again, but the ball and its five associated challenges end tonight.
