Movie Goerz

Jeez, it's quite hard but i found it at the first HP book mrgreen

Professor Vindictus Viridian.

wait? you found it? please don't tell me you looked it up after I just posted this just two days ago (which is on the same page you posted on)

miss_fawcett

Just as a reminder do not immediately go look up answers either in your books or on a website. I'm not trying to accuse anyone of anything, but some of the answers I am getting are uncomfortably exact, like it's being pulled straight from the text or the Lexicon.
I want to be awarding points for your knowledge, not your speed at finding the answer.
Obviously if a question has been up for a few days and no one has answered it, then looking it up is fair game. However, if it has only been up for less than a day, it is not fair to those that actually have the answer in their memory bank for you to go find it.
This is a quiz of knowledge, not navigation.

If you did, I won't award you any points and the question will have to be scrapped.
It would also mean you didn't read the Dueling Club Rules on the first page of the thread. Please go do so now.  

[miss_fawcett]

everything there has been resolved, and nothing is being scrapped. It was all a simple misunderstanding between languages. sooo
3 points to Slytherin!

What kind of broom did Jocunda Sykes use when she crossed the Atlantic Ocean?

 

[IceeWitch]

Looking things up takes all the fun out of it!

However this matter can be resolved easily.

I'm upholding miss fawcett's decision to scrap the previous question,
and not award any points. I understand people make mistakes (I make
plenty) so no points or anything will be deducted. In the future remember that this is just a fun little trivia club that tests knowledge. Of course questions Miss_Fawcett has will be known only be the most avid HP fans.
Give people a chance to answer before you run to the books. If a question is sitting dead for a long period of time (two days) check the answer and post it. I just reiterated everything fawcett said


(Miss Fawcett anything else you'd like me to add to the front page let me know)

 

[Music -Misfit-]

Yay! Being a Quidditch fanatic pays off sometimes. Jocunda used the Oakshaft.

Actually I pmed him, knowing that English wasn't his first language and it seems there was a bit of a mistranslation from French to English, so he will be getting the points.

What does the spell "Defodio" do, or what have we seen done with it?

 

[Hana Mylova]

It's so easy since i just finished reading HPATDH at indonesian language 2 days ago xd .
It's done by hermione to make the passageway larger to help the dragon.

@miss fawcett : isn't at jamie answer he suppose to get 3 points, not 2 points.  

[miss_fawcett]

(O.o yes he is! thank you! My questions tend to be 2 points, so I didn't bother to look and see. Good thing someone corrected me on that!)

and that would be CORRECT! 2 points to Slytherin!
