Thanks to all the Slytherins who came out for our house in any way in this past week! The RP and associated challenges are now over, but please post your "dress robe best" since the HA contest portion isn't over yet. Here's the link to that topic - Wizarding [CONTEST] Show us your dress robes! <3

Thanks, I got all those, it was just she mentioned answers, and I thought it was just an HA challenge. Phew! Then again, I totally missed the challenges in the The First Term Ball RP, though I did RP and had fun. RP is NOT my forte. Love dressing my HA. Only wish I could do that during the day instead of at night when I am falling asleep... :P Thanks for the ping and for clarifying. You're the PINGEST!
You still have time (4.5 more days) to participate in the Wizarding HA contest [edit] Yay to all of you Gryffs who earned points in the Ball challenges (that went way way WAY over my head... sigh...)
Now that the ball is over, here's the last bit of points (other than for the HA challenge!):
The following students have earned 20 House Points for solving Peeves's riddles: of Hufflepuff of Slytherin
The following students have earned 15 House Points for naming the song, artist, and moniker: of Hufflepuff of Slytherin
As previously said, anyone that participated will also be receiving points. It may take me a little while to add up all the points, but those should be awarded soon as well! Once that is done, the tallies from the Ball will be added to the main tallies.
And here's the participation points!
How this was calculated was that everyone that participated got 20 House Points for the base, then 1 point per post. Anyone that participated 5 out of 8 days or more also earned an extra 10 House Points. If you think I calculated your total wrong, let me know, and I will recheck. Please note that even though this is how the points were calculated this time does not mean this is how they will be calculated next time!
from Ravenclaw = 25 from Ravenclaw = 43 from Ravenclaw = 24 from Gryffindor = 45 from Hufflepuff = 22 from Hufflepuff = 21 from Hufflepuff = 21 from Ravenclaw = 37 from Slytherin = 23 from Ravenclaw = 23 from Gryffindor = 37 from Hufflepuff = 37 from Ravenclaw = 25 from Hufflepuff = 21 from Slytherin = 45 from Hufflepuff = 23 from Slytherin = 24 from Gryffindor = 23 from Slytherin = 21 from Hufflepuff = 22 from Slytherin = 25 from Ravenclaw = 22 from Ravenclaw = 23 from Slytherin = 25 from Gryffindor = 21 from Gryffindor = 25 from Ravenclaw = 31 from Ravenclaw = 25 from Gryffindor = 25 from Ravenclaw = 22
***Please note that these have not been added to the tallies in the first post yet. I'm falling asleep as I type this lol
[edit] Ball tally has been updated!
