Your answer of earwax is correct, as is toffee.

29- Roger Davies.
26- Hmm. I used to know this by heart, I think. But I’m not sure now.
I will now go sulk in a corner because I have finally snapped and I can’t stand Harry Potter any longer. It’s a fifth-grade reading level, the plots are not brilliant, the characters unappealing for the most part, the magic childish and unrealistic, as magic goes, and yet half the world’s literate population is totally fanatic. WHY? I thought it was good a while ago, and I wouldn’t have anything against if it wasn’t so CAKING POPULAR!

Lorcan and Lysander.
51 – WRONG. Frank Boyle was the gardener.

“Specialis Revalio” reveals invisible ink.
Ignore post 61, please. I was verrrrry tired. But now I downed some Gatorade (never tried it before), so I’m kinda sorta hyper!
Ooh, sorry ’bout the double post.
66 – 1980 and Mosag. C’mon, that was easy!
How do you guys know all this? o.O
69 – Forgive me. I’m rather tired, and I’m reading HP in hebrew right now, which doesn’t lend itself to trivia questions.
45-Peter Pettigrew
Sirius Black
Ton-tongue toffees

61-You get a .5 because you got half of Ludo Bagman’s team right.
64-Pigwigeon or something like that. I can never spell it.
66-#1 Wasn’t it 1980?
67-Right to the Ludo Bagman one.
Oh, you guys found a loophole. Specialis Revalio does read invisible ink, but there’s a specific spell.
POST 16 HAS NO ANSWERS!!
72 – Yes, wasn’t it mentioned in the book? Five or something. Maybe six.
72- It’s Pigwidgeon, I think. I don’t have my books on me, so I can’t check.
The spell to reveal invisible ink is Aparacium.
33~ Shell cottage. The lost diadem of Ravenclaw. George, I think?
36~ Lily.
37~ Draco Malfoy.
40~ (1) Moony, Padfoot, Wormtail and Prongs.
(2) They were Remus John Lupin (called “Moony” because he was a werewolf), Sirus Black (called “Padfoot” because in animagus form he was a large black dog), Peter Petigrew (called “Wormtail” because he changed to a rat) and James Potter (called “Prongs” because he transformed to a stag).

(2) Prof. Quirrrel.
(3) Paper napkins.
50~ A milkman.

Whew…..Cat’s Meow asks how we know tis stuff? I’ve read the first four books approximately 8 times each, the fifth 7 times, the 6th 4 times and the 8th 2 1/2 times. (yes, 2 1/2, it’s possible.)
I love the books, I thin that the writing is wonderful for all ages, and the plots are so intricate and perfect that I am continually amazed at them. I never tire of reading them, and I intend to read them all over again many times before I die.
I’m so glad that I’ve been part of this generating and able to see them unfold and develop.
As for their amazing popularity, that’s what kept me from reading them for awhile, but once I started reading I realized why they are so popular; not because they are cheap and easy reads like some bestsellers (*coughTiwlightcough*) but because they have real worth.
I’m hopeless! I can’t get these!
61- Mr. Tibbles is all I remember.
58- No….??
66- 1981, July 31st.
62- Incorrect. Ludo Bagman’s team was the Wimbourne Wasps.
16- Ah… wasn’t it six? I remember because they were screech owls, and the screech owls reminded me of Ezylryb from- oh never mind… This train of thought is on to twisted a track to trace.
Harry was born in 1980 but then someone already answered that.
Ask more questions!
Wait, is all of this off the top of your head? Or are you guys checking the books as you answer?
I’m doing it all off the top of my head. Which is probably why I’ve made a few mistakes.
79- Everyone knows who Ezylryb is. at least evryone who’s read…
81 – I am at camp and have no access to the books.
75-*awards a prize*
79-*prize to you to*
81-Yup. The ones I can’t get off the top of my head I don’t answer, except for that one.
this is kind of random ,but we used to play a cross between harry potter trivia and baseball in 5th grade.
i mean 4th
GAH, I was away for two days, and I miss the start of this? No fair, now it’s too confusing to keep track of.
…
Whom did Voldemort kill to make each of his horcruxes?
Who was Bellatrix’s husband? Whom did she really love?
Diehard questions.
Who thought that the symbol of the Deathly Hollows was a family crest?
88- Marvolo Gaunt. It was on the ring he almost “shoved up the ministry employee’s nose.”
87 – He killed:
Tom Riddle Senior for the ring
Moaning Myrtle for the diary
Hepzibah Smith for the cup
A Muggle tramp for the locket
An Albanian peasant for the diadem
Lily Potter for Harry
Bertha Jorkins for Nagini
HA!
87 – Bellatrix was married to Rodolphus Lestrange, but actually loved Voldemort (the horror!).
88 – Marvolo Gaunt.
This thread is my new favorite!
I hope no one asked these already….
Who invented the Golden Snitch?
Monkshood and wolfsbane are the same plant, which also goes by the name of what?
Which Ministry official at the Quidditch World Cup had horns?
91- monkshood and wolfsbane are also known as aconite, unless I am very much mistaken.
55- Yay Kokonilly!
92- Correct, all three names are acceptable.
Who does Luna marry, and who is his great great (however many greats) granddad?
Who did England lose to in the Quidditch World Cup?
91- The Golden Snitch was invented by someone from Godric’s Hollow to replace the Golden Snitch Bird, but I can’t remember the guy’s name.
94 – Bulgaria I think I’m to lazy to check
94 – Transylvania, 390-10
94- It was the Snidget! Not the ‘Snitch Bird’.
Exactly! did anyone read Quidditch through the ages? very interesting. Now, here is my question. What shape does Hermione’s patronous take on?
It was Bulgaria! Not Transylvania! (I do hope you’re referring to the match fought in book 4, because otherwise I am most likely wrong, and just might deserve a pie in the face.)
98- an otter!
87-
Hepzibah Smith for the cup
Some Albanian guy for the diadem
Moaning Myrtle for the diary
His father/grandparents for the ring
Hepzibah Smith for the locket again
Lilly Potter in attempt to kill Harry
Bertha Jorkins for Nagini
Rodolphus Lestrange, and she really loved Voldemort.
88-Marvolo Gaunt
91-I only know that monkshood and wolfsbane also go by the name acionite.
93-Neville maybe? That’s a guess.
94-Krum got the snitch, but England still won.
98-An otter.
What are [some] of the lyrics to “A Cauldron Full of Hot, Strong Love”? Who sang it?
101 (RE 87)- An Albanian woman, I think. But otherwise, completely correct!
93- Rolf Scamander.
101- the world cup was bulgaria vs. ireland. (94) England was beaten by Transylvania earlier in the season.
94~ They didn’t. It was Ireland against Bulgaria, and Ireland won, although Bulgaria’s Viktor Krum caught the snitch.
98~ An Otter.
101~ No, it wasn’t England, it was IRELAND!!!
and I think some of that song was “boil me up a cauldron of hot, strong love and I’ll keep you warm tonight!” or something like that. Mr Weasley was rather embarassed by it.
What is the poem that is written on the doors to Gringotts?
What did Neville mistakenly call the Sorcerer’s Stone in book 5?
101 – Oh, come and stir my cauldron
And if you do it right
I’ll boil you up some hot, strong love
To keep you warm tonight.
105-I wrote the poem in creepy letters and put it on my bedroom door along with a whole bunch of plastic spiders.
Enter stranger, but take heed
Of what awaits the sin of greed
For those who take and do not earn
Must pay most dearly in their turn
So if you seek beneath these floors
A treasure that was never yours
Thief, you have been warned, beware!
Of finding more than treasure there.
103-But…what… oh never mind. Okay. In any case, England didn’t play in the World Cup, did they?
106- I did something similar, only I wrote ‘wit beyond measure is Man’s greatest treasure; enter if you dare!’ And the spiders were made out of needle-felt.
What is Remus Lupin’s middle name?
England lost to Transylvania.
Hermione has an Otter Patronus.
Ireland won, but Krum got the snitch.
BONUS! Who was Victoire? And who was she snogging?
107~ His full name is Remus John Lupin. I think I said that earlier on this thread…..hmm.
108~ Victoire was snogging Teddy Lupin. I can’t remember who she was though…….*hits head* Was she Ron and Hermione’s daughter?
Victoire is Bill and Fleur’s daughter, named in honor of the victory over Voldemort.
110~ Ah. I was pretty sure that she wasn’t Ron and Hermione’s, but I couldn’t think who else…….okay, now I remember.
Maybe it’s because I don’t have the “extra brain capacity” of some of the other Musers…….*sigh*
Nonsense, Fiddler. Anyone who knows as much as you do about the rigging of tall ships clearly has plenty of room in her neocortex.
112~ Perhaps I’ve pushed out any important information to make room for more information about the rigging of tall ships and Harry Potter than any sane person would ever need or care to know. Thanks though, you’re cool.
I just found this thread- not sure what took me so long but whatever. I’m not going to answere any of the above questions because that would take way too long, and I can’t ask my favorite question because my sister Groundhog used it first (cake!) So here is my question:
What bush was Hermione pruning when Harry ran into Herbology late and then asked her to help him learn a Summoning Charm in one day?
106- I thought it was, ‘and if you seek beneath OUR floors’
What year did Nearly Headless Nick die?
116~ Sometime in the 1600s, I think. I can’t remember the exact year.
117 – No, the answer to 116 is 1492. The entire date is (I quote) 31st October, 1492
110- And someone told me she was named after Victor Krum. I don’t know if it was intentional, but it’s an amusing double-meaning
How do you guys know this stuff? 114- A bush? What bush? I don’t even remember a bush!!!!
120- we’ve just read the books a few times too many.
Here is a HP riddle:
What is ghostlike but never died,
Is mischevious but not unwise,
In the air it tends to fly.
Who/what am I?
121- A spell? Just a guess…
114- A Flutterby Bush!
121- A poltergeist?
121- you are peeves!!!
ok. i have one
what does Harry find that is “sharp” and hence leads him to discover the bowl with all the thoughts in it whos name I forgott and how?
111- what WAS ron and hermionies daughters name, and what does ron tell her as she is getting on the train to hogwarts?
125- Rose, and Ron says ‘ Thank god you have your mother’s brains. Make sure you beat him at every test, Rosie.’
107-John.
108-Victoire was Bill and Fluer’s daughter, and she was snogging Lupin and Tonks son, Teddy.
121-Peeves.
125-Rose, and Ron told her to be in Gryffindor or she’d be disowned.
125- Rose, and Ron told her “Beat him in every test, Rosie. Thank God you inherited your mother’s brains.” (Hermione’s response:)
“Ron, don’t turn them against each other before they’ve even stepped on the train.”
121- A poltergeist, obviously.
120- It’s not hard. In DH JKR states that “Two Flutterby Bushes waved their limbs lazily, though there was no breeze, creating a pleasant rippling effect.”
101- Celestina Warbeck.
yay!!! everyone is right!!
now, what spell did who use to blast one of the twins (which one?)’s ear off?
124 anyone? oh, it is in Dumbledor’s office by the way!
129- Sectumsempra, Snape, George.
yes! because fred got killed and I will never forgive JKROWLIng for killing him because he was my favorite twin yes ther was a difference and I will also never forgive her for killing Sirius becuse he was TOTALLY AWESOME!!!!! *pahnt* ok I am done rageing.
what did Fred and George bet that Ireland would win but krum would get the snitch?
132 – 37 Galleons, 15 Sickles, 3 Knuts. Plus a fake wand.
just one?
129~ Sectumsempra was the spell, Snape used it, and it blasted off George’s ear.
124~ It’s called a Pensieve, and Harry finds in in Dumbledore’s office in a cabinet because the door was not latched properly and the light made patterns in the substance in it.
129- Sectumsempra, etc.
Where was Sirius held prisoner in at the end of book 3 and where was this place located?
136- Professor Flitwick’s office, in the North Tower. I think.
What type of juice was present at every Hogwarts feast?
134 – Yes, just one. I believe their exact words were: “Oh, and we’ll throw in a fake wand.”
List all the Weasleys in order of age. What was written in neon in Fred and George’s shop? And what was the shop called? Answer tomorrow.
Double post. sorry. What form does Hermionie’s patronus take? How about Cho Chang’s? This is hard. What form does Snape’s patronus take? Last one. What forms do Tonk’s patronuses take on? There are two.
Wow.
Uh,
139-
Bill
Charlie
Percy
Fred and George
Ron
Ginny
137- Hm, Pumpkin Juice?
139- The wording was somewhat like…
“Why are you worrying about You-Know-Who? You should be worrying about U-No-Poo! The constipation sensation that’s sweeping the nation.” I’m not sure if that’s exact, though.
Boy, was it awkward typing that.
The shop is Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes.
140- Otter, don’t know, doe. I don’t know the first one, but the second is a werewolf… I think? Or at least something large with four legs.
137~ Pumpkin Juice.
139~ Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred and George, Ron Ginny.
Fred and George’s shop in Diagon Alley was called “Weasly’s Wizard Wheezes” and in neon letters was a sing proclaiming “Why are you worrying about You-Know-Who? You should be worrying about You-No-Poo, the constipation sensation that’s gripping the nation!” When Mrs. Weasley saw it she groaned in horro and said “they’ll be murdered in their beds!”
140~ Hermione: And otter. Cho Changs: (I can’t remember at the moment) Snape’s; A doe. Tonks: The second was a large dog like animal.
137- Pumpkin juice (like five people haven’t already said that). Also, your answer is close, but not quite. The Flitwick part is correct, though.
What was the line engraved on Ariana’s tombstone?
Hey! I already asked the Hermione-Patronous question! (Answer is otter) I forget what Cho’s was, but it’s probably some silly dainty thing that prances around.
Ah, I have to ask a question, don’t I? What color does a portkey glow when it’s about to leave? There.
Name a few (2,3,4,5…..) of the colors of Lockhart’s robes.
What is Lockhart’s favorite color? (I seem to like colors today) Secondly, name some questions from the quiz Lockhart passes out on the first day of class.
148- Light blue, or purple.
145- Cho’s was a swan. Which fits quite well, considering her personality.
146- Blue.

What is Professor Lockhart’s secret ambition?

Hagrid got Fluffy from a ‘hooded stranger’ in the Hog’s Head bar (presumably Quirrell). Unless… wait, that might have been the dragon’s egg. Cake it!

155- Orange radish earrings, butterbeer cork necklaces.
154 — Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of number 4 Privet Drive were happy to say that they were very normal, thank you very much.
Ehrrr… that’s probably not completely exact, but it’s the gist of it.
I went and checked — happy = proud; very = perfectly. But I think I was pretty close, considering.
Cho Chang’s patronus is a swan.
144~ “Where your treasure is, there is your heart also” Or something like that.
151~ Hagrid bought Fluffy from a “Greek chappie met down a’ the pub”.
153~ Dumbledore tells Harry that when he looks into the Mirror of Erised he sees himself holding a pair of thick woolen socks.

163~ Oh goodness, thank you!
How did Mr. Ollivander describe Hagrid’s wand?
What did Dobby call Ron in Book 4?
What did Peeves sing after the attack on Nick and Justin in book 2?
163- Ooh, cool.
165- Um… bendy?
Wheezy
Something along the lines of, “Oh Potter, you rotter!”
160- close enough. The exact wording is, ‘Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also’ I think you got it
165- a) you told me, so I can’t put it in
b) Wheezy
c) “Oh Potter, you rotterm oh look what you’ve done!
You’re killing off students, and you think it’s great fun!”
Whoops! Sorry- in part c) of my last post, that should be ‘rotter’, not ‘rotterm’. It appears that I hit the ‘M’ by mistake.
Yay thank you Syllabub!
How does Hermione obtain hair from Crabbe and Goyle to put into the Polyjuice Potion?
169-She knocks them out with potion-soaked cupcakes.
163- actually she levetates 2 cupcakes full of knockout juice in front of them and they eat them
171-I said the same thing! And I answered earlier!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What color hand is the one Voldemort gives Wormtail in Goblet of Fire?
What are thestrals, and what must happen to you so that you can see them?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NO LOOKING AT BOOKS OR GOOGLE! Find these out…by yourself.
172- Or fansites, I suppose?
-The hand was silver
-They are magical black reptilian-horse-like creatures that pull the Hogwarts carriages. You can only see them if you’ve seen someone die.
172- Silver, obviously. I’ve never looked at the books or Google or any reference point except my head while on this thread.
Thestrals are a phantom-ish horse-dragon cross, and you must see a person die before you can see them.
172-sorry- I didnt read everything to cathc up.
what is harryding at the bigining of the 5th book? and what happens right afterwards?
172 – It was a silver hand, and thestrals are black horse-things. You have to see someone die and the death has to ‘sink in’.
No reference to books yet; all the past questions I’ve answered have been answered at nerd camp.
173, 174-Correct!
176-Sink in? Now, where’d you get THAT from? But really…well, you’re pretty much correct.
wow. I just realized how horrible post 175 cme out. I will try agian:
what is harry doing at the begining of the 5th book? and what happens right afterwards?
better?
175-this is just a guess, but is he dreaming? I don’t know, he tends to be having nightmares at the beginning of the books.
I dont think so…
anymore geusses?
177 – I got it from JKR herself.
181-Oh. Well, in THAT case…I give you 40 imaginary Trivia HP points!
They don’t exist, remember! So don’t think they’re a real kind of point…
175- At the beginning, Harry is hiding in the Dursley’s flower bed, listening to the news for signs of Voldemort’s return. Directly afterwards, he hears someone disapperate, causing something of an uproar. I think.
183 — Actually, that’s at the beginning of the second book.
170 — correct. 171, that’s just in the movie. In the book, Hermione puts them on the banisters of the staircase just outside the Great Hall right before they exit.
184- No, no, because the person who disapperated was Mundungus Fletcher or whatever his name was, and he had been watching Harry on Dumbledore’s orders. Remember, because Mrs Figg was so angry at him after the dementors attacked?
185 — My bad. I was not reading thoroughly, and as I presume you know, Harry hears someone Disapparate and sees something in a bush in the beginning of the second book. I do apologize for my hasty criticism.
186- No problem, it’s an easy mistake.
2- he was being held out of the upstairs window by his uncle who accidentaly dropped him when offered a slice of cake and he bounced.
9-sphynx
18- 4- he transfigured him into a bone a burried him. 6- sunshine daisies butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow. I think george taught it to him, if not it was fred. 7- earwax, vomit, toffee.
19- he was hit by the killing curse and fell through the veil.
165~ “Oh Potter you rotter, oh what have you done? You’re killing off students, you think it’s great fun!”
169~ By putting a sleeping potion in two cupcakes and leaving them on the banister for them to find and eat. She then hid them in a broom cupboard.
172~ Silver. Thestrals are creatures that are winged horses with a rather reptilian look to them, too see them one has to see someone die.
184~ No, it’s the beginning of the 5th.
172- Silver. Winged horses with a reptilian look which can only be seen by those who have seen death (like five people haven’t already said that. Whatever)
What color quill does Lockhart use when he signs Hermione’s note to allow her to get Most Potent Potions out of the library?
190~ I believe it’s turquoise? Or perhaps lilac or pink, in any case, it’s revolting.
190- Purple.
In which book does Harry first hear tell of the Room of Requirement?
190- It’s a peacock feather quill, so it would would be a mixture. But not any revolting colors.
What does Colin Creevey do when his brother Dennis walks into the hall with the other new students?
193- Dennis mouths, ‘I fell in the lake!’ Colin mouths ‘Awesome!’
Or something like that…
Syllabub: 192-fourth. Dumbledore makes reference to it as a bathroom.
MissSwann: You cheater, I just told you the answer!!!!
Syllabub: well it was one of my 2 guesses.
Correct ZVX!
193- Dennis: (gives a double thumbs up at Colin and mouths) I fell in the lake!
In what year did Sirius Black die?
192~ The fourth, from Dobby, I think.
196~ In the Fifth book, so in the time it was supposed to be in?? 1996, I think.
196- 1990 was year one, right? so 1995?
198~ Oh, yeah, you’re right. 1995. *hits head*
Never mind me and my mathematical ineptitude.
1. Prewett
2. He bounced when his Great Uncle Algie accidentally dropped him from a window
9. Lynx
10. Scoprius Hyperion
17. Lorcan and Lysander
18 Q1 Fishing for plimpies by the creek; Q2 mimbulus mimbletonia, “Order of the Phoenix”;
No more time now, I got called into work……
1. What object does Harry use to cut Ron and Gabrielle free and then hand to Viktor Krum to cut Hermione free in challenge 2 in book 4?
2. What form of frozen treat does Harry get when he is dragged by the Dursleys to the zoo for Dudley’s birthday?
3. a bit of trivia: Dudley is a nickname for donkey, which makes sense because Dudley Dursley deserves that name, the pudgy brat. (okay that last bit was a bit mild, don’t you think? Dudley is more than a brat) Now a question related to that, list 3 ways Dudley deserves his name.
201- A sharp rock
A cheap lemon ice pop
What year did Sirius Black graduate Hogwarts?
201- a jagged rock; a cheap lemon ice pop.
203- well, Lily and James were born in 1960, so add 17 years… that makes 1987 the year that Sirius graduated.
Teddy Lupin is found “snogging” whom in the epiloge of the 7th book? Who is she the child of?
(See 108-110, above. Bonus points to Syllabub for correctly using “whom.”)
205 — Victoire, the child of Bill and Fleur. Didn’t we already have a question like this?
196- Correct!
205- Victoire, who is the daughter of Ron and Hermione.
201- Bullying, annoyingness, and being a sucker brat.
(208) I don’t think donkeys in general are any more prone to bullying, annoyingness, or brattiness than people are. It depends on the donkey.
Oh, right. In fact, donkeys are much LESS prone to that than humans.
207 – Yes, that was my question exactly!
201~ A. A sharp rock. B. A lemon Italian ice. (If I’m correct) because it was the cheapest thing, and the attendant asked what he’d have.
129-Sectumsempra used by Snape, to blast off George’s ear.
136-Professor Flitwick’s office at Hogwarts.
137-Pumpkin Juice?
139-Arthur, Molly, Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, Ginny. “Why are you worrying about You-Know-Who? You should be worrying about “U No Poo”, the constipation sensation that’s gripping the nation!” It’s called Weasly’s Wizarding Wheezes.
140-Easy. Otter, Swan, Doe, and I forget Tonk’s first one, but her second was a werewolf.
146-Blue
147-Lilac, Lavender, Sky Blue
151-Professor Quirrel.
153-What form does Harry’s Patronus take, and socks.
154-“Mr. and Mrs. Dursley of number 4 Privet Drive were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much.” Not exact, but yeah.
155-Nargle charms, radish earings.
169-She knocks them out with cupcakes.
172-Silver? And thestrals are horse-like animals that are invisible unless you’ve seen somebody snuff it.
175-Lying in Petunia’s dying begonyas, listening to the Muggle news.
192-The fourth, Dumbledore mention’s it.
193-Congradulates his brother for falling in the lake.
196-1996
201-A rock. A lemon ice pop, and 1) Dudley was a jerk, 2) Dudley was a jerk and 3) Dudley was a jerk.
205-Victoire, and she’s the daughter of Bill and Fleur.
Phew.
Hmm. What caused Tom Riddle to permantly adopt the name Lord Voldemort?
207, 211- oops!! I didn’t know that question had been taken. I don’t have the patience to read all of these questions!!
206- Thanks!! At least my grammer makes up for my horrendus spelling…
208-she’s the daughter of Bill and Fleur, not Ron and Hermionie.
137 – pumpkin.
214 – Did you misspell “horrendous” on purpose?
What was the last word of Book 7 originally intended to be? BONUS: Why that word? Why did JKR ditch it?
216 – It was supposed to be scar, and it was changed because she wanted to end it on a happier note, with “All was well.”
216-not really….. But I needed to get off the blog so I wasn’t really paying attention…
217 – Yay!
213~ He hated being named after his muggle father who abandoned him before he was born. In the Chamber of Secrets he write with Harry’s wand in the air “Tom Marvolo Riddle” and then with a flick of he wand the letters re-arrange themselves to read “I am Lord Voldemort.”
He’s lucky they didn’t spell out “I am Lord Terdlvoom” or “I am Lord V. M. Troodle.” I think you’d have trouble getting Death Eaters to follow someone with a name like that.
221 –
Who DARES snicker at the great Lord Movolterd?!
What could he have done that would have had “Molotov” in it? That would still be intimidating, although maybe not to wizards, as they don’t always keep up with Muggle news.
I think you’re overestimating even Muggles’ knowledge of Soviet history. Besides, the point was that he was trying to distinguish himself from everybody else, especially Muggles.
Anyway, his options would have been Molotovred, Molotoverd, Erdmolotov, Redmolotov, and Dremolotov–or if he wanted to use the M, A, and I in his full name, he could have used Dreimolotov, Driemolotov, Derimolotov, Redimolotove, Ridemolotov Riedmolotov, Reidmolotov, Molotovdire, Molotovdreim, Molotovdriem, Molotovderi, Molotovredi, Molotovride, Molotovried, Molotovreid, or (probably the best option with “Molotov”) Diremolotov.
Muggles may not know Soviet history, but they would recognize it as part of the nickname for a certain kind of bomb.
…Oh. *did not, but that hardly makes a difference, as she a) was born a lot later than the Muggles in question were and b) practically lives under a rock*
You can rearrange Molotovdire to be Dire Molotov, which does sound intimidating, albeit in a comic book supervillain fashion.
Redmolotov… Communist Voldemort?
Why did you revive this old thread. Everyone disregard any comments I may have made in this thread — or if you don’t, keep in mind that I had just turned 12 when I made them. (That was a long time ago!)
Sorry, I came across it while browsing and that joke jumped out at me.
223 – *completely cracks up* *rolls around on the floor laughing (I believe that is referred to by ‘normal people’ as ROFL?)*
221~ Indeed. That would most definitely spoil the atmosphere of the story and cause a great deal of embarrassment to the gentleman in question. (Or not, since he’s not exactly a gentleman when you get down to it.)
I just read the last few posts out loud to my brother and sister, and they’re now staggering around the room laughing. Jacob thinks those names are way better, and now he won’t stop saying them.
223~ Okay, I actually fell off my stool on that one. In all seriousness, no dramatization for the benefit of my dear fellow MuseBloggers, I truly fell onto the floor. (I didn’t roll though.)
226 – They *giggle* ARE better!
227 – No *chuckle* dramatization *snicker* here either! HAHAHA!!!!
SILENCE!!! Lord Modelvrot will not tolerate such levity.
229 – You have the best jokes… *hiccups*
229~ Stop, before I get a stomachache from laughing too hard!!
Oh never mind, keep going, it’s funny.
No, I think the “SILENCE” message was too much. Taking something too far doesn’t make it as funny.
From an alternate universe where most of the Gaunts are prone to poor grammar, Hogwarts is in St. Petersburg, and the fourth Unforgivable Curse is the Squelchy Centrifuge…
I are Roll’em Dmovtod!
(232) That’s true. Technically, it’s called “jumping the shark.” But I do like the idea of Voldy’s trying out various names until he finds one that works.
Now, back to trivia…
220-There was a specific time when he dropped his Muggle father’s name, though.
I can see young Tom Riddle at a desk, crossing out names.
“M. V. Troodle? No… Moldevrot? No… Voldemort! Aha!”
121, 123, 129- *totally cracks up* *mother thinks child is very odd*
Oh. My. Goodness. That’s all I can say.
213: 40 Muzey points because you got Tonks. Can some one tell me if I missed someone who got it right? Please award the points to yourself if I missed you, and then tell me.
List all of the chapter titles (including the epilogue) of Deathly Hallows.
What are Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Dumbledore’s full names?
What happened to everyone in the epilogue? Give the full name of at least one of Harry’s kids.
238-not gonna answer 1st one.
Harry Potter
Ronald Weasley
Hermione Granger
Albus Dumbledore
not answering last.
216-scar
223- That is honestly one of the few things I have ever read that made me cry tears of laughter.
238-
#1- can’t list them all off the top of my head
#2- Hemione Jean Granger
Ronald Bilius Weasley
Harry James Potter
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
#3- Albus Severus Potter
Right!
18. Q3 Willy Widdershins; Q4 He transfigured it into a bone and buried it; Q6 It said in Philosopher’s Stone that he chose it from a name in History of Magic (or one of his school books anyway….); Q7 “Sunshine, daisies, buttermellow, Turn this stupid, fat rat yellow!” (Yes, that’s by memory–all my answers have been); Q8 Dumbledore ate earwax in the infirmary (“Alas, earwax”); I believe he originally was turned away by a vomit flavoured one, and he thought he was going to get toffee (I think)
19. Sirius was hit by a stunner from Bellatrix Lestrange, and he fell backward through The Veil
25. Hmmm, i dunno, it’s the only Black name so far I haven’t traced it’s celestial origins….
29. Fleur went with Roger Davies
33. Q1 Shell Cottage; Q2 Blood of a follower, willingly given, blood of an enemy forcibly taken, and the bone/bones of an ancestor; Q3 Ravenclaw’s diadem was hidden in the Room of Requirements (I remember when harry saw it in HBP); Q4 George Weasley
34: Perhaps it was a killing curse, but likewise, I’m not so sure (following, is my Sirius theory I wrote before DH came out):
“Order of the Phoenix”, Pg. 805-806 (US) and Pg. 710-711 (UK): ‘Only one couple was still battling, apparently unaware of the new arrival. Harry saw Sirius duck Bellatrix’s jet of red light: [the color of a stunner] He was laughing at her. “Come on, you can do better than that!” he yelled….The second jet of light hit him squarely on the chest. [Not mentioned as being a different color, such as green, the color of the Killing Curse] The laughter had not quite died from his face, but his eyes widened in shock….It seemed to take Sirius an age to fall….And Harry saw the look of mingled fear and surprise on his godfather’s wasted, once-handsome face….’ Not only was the jet of light not mentioned as being green, the color of Avada Kedavra, but Sirius’s expression changed once the jet of light hit him. First, his ‘eyes widened in shock,’ then he had a ‘look of mingled fear and surprise’ on his face. Avada Kedavra kills instantly. His expressions would not have changed if it
had been the Killing Curse he was hit with, since he would have been DEAD. He was alive when he fell through the veil!
243 – Yes! I was right! This is what I said:
“19 – Bellatrix hits him with a spell (that was RED, so not Avada Kedavra), he then falls through a curtain, and presumably dies.”
Good job. Did you know I read a FanFic were Sirius disappartes before he gets swallowed up by the veil? Would’nt you love that?
I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE KILLED OFF FRED!!!! WHAT A B****!!!!!!
245 – That would be awesome. And Mrs. Weasley already killed her, and insulted her in that fashion. It’s not exactly original.
36. Lily
37. Draco Malfoy
38. Kennilworthy Whisp
40. Q1 Wormtail, Padfoot, Prongs, and Moony; Q2 They are Peter Pettigrew (wormtail for his animagus form of a rat), Sirius Black (Padfoot for his animagus form of a dog), James Potter (Harry’s dad, Prongs for his form of a stag), and Remus John Lupin, because of the fact he is a werewolf; Q3 Harry found the curse (Sectumsempra) in his sixth year potions book, in the notes written by the Half Blood Prince (Severus Snape), the curse was labeled “for enemies”; Q4 Severus Snape
41. Lorcan and Lysander–it’s on her website–I’ve got the Weasley family tree on a 2 ft by 3 ft piece of paper on my ceiling (starting with Molly=Arthur) and have Luna on there too
42. I think it was 2 owls, or maybe it was 3…I forget
43. It was after the fifth book that I became obsessed–because I hated Harry’s attitude (don’t ask, I’m not exactly sure how that turns me into a fanatic)
45. Q1 Peter Pettigrew; Q2 Sirius Black; Q3 Ton-tongue toffee; Q4 It made Dudley’s tongue grow long and thick and purpleish; Q5 Dudley
46. Q1 Bertha Jorkins in Albania (didn’t he)–oh and Cedric Diggory (s’pose that’s waht you’re going for, huh); Q2 She is his cousin; Q3 Sirius is named after the dog star–second name probably for the colour of his patronus form
47. Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle
48. Q1 She was murdered by Voldemort; Q2 Quirrell; Q3 She got the idea on a train from Manchester, I think she started it on a napkingk, and wrote on scraps of paper while sitting in cafes
50. Wait, where the heck did it say???????
53. I do believe it was summer–but I don’t remember
56. Q1 Tibbles, Mr. Paws, Snowy, and Tufty; Q2 Tim McGuffin (And now, over to Tim McGuffin with the weather. Can we expect another shower of owls tonight, Tim?); Q3 A lot–I forget; Q4 the Wimbourne Wasps; Q5 #1 probably, but i don’t remember, it was certainly one of the early ones; Q6 Revelio; Q7 it’s Malfoy Manor–uh, England, isn’t it?; Q8 Isn’t it the apothecary, or no maybe it was the brooms, or cauldrons, I really don’t remember
64. Oh, good an easy one. Pigwidgeon
66. Q1, well that depends: Going by Nearly Headless Nick’s Deathday (Oct. 31, 1492, 500 yrs prior to CoS, in which Harry is 12) the answer would be 1980. But, going by the date JKR gives for when Fred WEasley died in DH (on the family tree on her website, it says he died in 1997, but if Harry were born in 1980, the year would be 1998 when Fred died since it was the year harry was due to turn 18)and thus Harry’s birthyear would be 1979.
So, to summarize, going by NHN deathday, Harry was born in 1980, going by Fred’s deathyear on JKR’s website, Harry was born in 1979 (which actually meshes with days of the week in PS better–Harry’s 11th birthday being a Tuesday, Friday oct 16 being a Friday in Azkaban, etc.
66. Q2 Mosag
76–no kidding! Every time I reread the books, I discover something new. it’s great!
87. Ooh, toughy.
Lessee, the diary horcurx was his father, i think. The ring, his grandfather. Harry, Harry’s mum. Nagini, Frank Bryce. The locket (perhpas Hepsibah Smith (or whatever her name was), or oh, I give up
87. Q2 Her husband is Rodolphus Lestrange; Voldemort (duh, just read DH)
88. Marvolo Gaunt thought the symbol was the Peverell family crest
91. Q1. Oh, no, I know this, but I can’t remember right now….
Q2 Aconite
Q3 wait, what? someone had horns? oh, dear, I thought I would have remembered something like that
93. Luna marries Rolf–I think he’s supposed to be descended form Newt Scamander
94. England didn’t play in the Quidditch World Cup–Ireland did, and they won. “Ireland wins, but Krum gets the Snitch” Or do you mean who they lost to, thus preventing them from playing in the cup? I don’t remember that
98: Yes I read Quidditch Through the Ages, and Hermione’s patronus is an otter
Ireland, people, not England. England did not play in the cup!!!!
101. Oh, I remember Celestina Warbeck sang that song, but I don’t remember any lyrics
105. Oh, easy:
Enter, stranger, but take heed, of what awaits the sin of greed.
For those who take but do not earn, must pay most dearly in their turn.
So if you seek beneath our floors, a treasure that was never yours.
Thief, you have been warned, beware, off finding more than treasure there.
And yes, that was by memory.
105–I believe inSorcerer’s stone he called in “sorcerous stone”, but in Philosopher’s Stone, he called it something like “philosophic stone’
106: You did (put the Gringotts poem on your door)? That is so cool! I should do that on my dorm room door once I get to school–oh, wait, my roomie might not like that, not to mention, I want to appear normal to my ahll mates, so nvrmnd.
107. John
108. Easy–she is Bill and Fleur’s first born. They also had Dominique and Louis (I had to look Dominique up on my ceiling….). She was snogging Teddy Remus Lupin
111. Don’t feel bad, the books didn’t actually say who Victoire’s parents were–it was only actually spelled out on JKR’s website, although I think some, or perhaps even many of us, guessed her to be Bill and Fleur’s due to her French name (I did, anyway)
114. No clue, I forget
116. 1492 (when Columbus sailed the ocean blue) d’you know, that’s the only reason I can remember the date Colubus discovered the americas (because it’s the same as Nick’s deathyear)? (Yes, I know that’s very sad)
121. Um, a patronus?
124. It’s a pensieve, and I don’t recall any edges, if you mean the one in Dumbledore’s office. The door to the cabinet was ajar, and the rippling light from the thoughts caught Harry’s attention
125. her name is Rose, and Ron tells her to make sure she beats Scorpius on everything, and the Hermione gets mad, and he says “just joking”
129. Severus Snape used Sectumsempra, and he was aiming for a Death Eater trying to kill Lupin
132. All their money and a trick wand, but I forget how much money they had.
136. It was ina tower at Hogwarts
137. pumpkin
139. Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, Ginevera
Why are you worrying about You-Know-Who, when you should be worrying about You-no-poo, the constipation sensation that’s gripping the nation!
Or something along those lines
Weasley Wizard Wheezes
140. Otter
Swan
Doe (like Lily)
the second was something hairy (like a werewolf, probably, seeing as she was in love with Lupin)–I don’t remeber what the other was
144. Easy! “Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also”
146. Blue
147. Blue, pink, lilac, can’t think of any others right off, but they’re horrendous

148. What’s my favourite colour? lilac
What, in your opinion, is my most significant achievement to date?
What would be my ideal birthday present? harmony between all magic and non-magic people, alhtough I wouldn’t say no to a bottle of Ogden’s old firewhiskey
What is my secret ambition? to market my own range of haircare products
I think there were more, but i don’t remember right off
151. “Bought ’em off a greek chappie I met in a pub las’ year”
153. What was in the corner of my office the first time you were there in your third year? (I know, the wording’s not correct) and the answer is Grindylows
Dumbledore sees woollen socks. “I? I see myself holding a pair of thick, woollen socks.”
And the mirror is the Mirror of Erised
154. Easy. Mr and Mrs Dursley, of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. (Shall I go on?) They were the last people you would expect to be involved with anything strange or mysterious. They just didn’t hold with such nonsense.
Mr Dursley was the director of a firm called Grunnings, which made drills. He was a big, beefy man with hardly any neck, alhtough he did have a very large moustache. Mrs Durlsey was thin and blonde, with nearly twice the usual amount of neck, which came in very useful (or handy, depending on whether it’s bloomsbury or scholastic) craning over garden fences, spying on the neighbours. The Dursleys had a small son called Dudley, and in their opinion there was no finer boy….and it gets slightly fuzzy here, I used to have the entire first chapter memorised, but not anymore….
155. A butterbeer cork/cap necklace (book five says one, book six says the other, don’t remember which in which) She also wears what resembles orange radishes for earrings, but die-hards will know these are really dirigible plums
165. Sturdy, made of oak, sixteen inches
harry’s wheezy, i think
Oh, potter your rotter, oh what have you done….
Actually, the very first thing he did, was scream “Attack, attack, no one living or dead is safe, atack” or something like taht
169. She doesn’t. She gives Harry and Ron chocolate cakes with sleeping potion in them, and Harry and Ron leave them on a railing for Crabbe and Goyle, and then pluck their hairs
172. Silver
They are winged horses, and to see them, you must ahve see n someone die
175–not sure if I translated your post correctly. He was laying underneath the window of 4 privet drive, listening to the news, then there was a loud crack (mundungus fletcher disapparating) and one of Mrs Figgs cats ran out from under a car, Harry jumped upright, smashed his skull on the window frame, Vernon looked out the window, and got pissed at Harry, and shouted at other curious neighbours about the car backfiring….
190 I believe it was a peacock feather, wasn’t it?
192. Gobelt of Fire, from Dumbledore at the Yule Ball dinner
193. Dennis mouths that he fell in the lake, and Colin gives him a thumbs up or something
OK, sorry GAPA, for this horrendously long post…anyways, I gotta go eat lunch, get ready for work…..it’s my next to last day, *sniff*, I will miss everybody there….
Alright, i will be back to answer the rest sometime, probably not till after I’m at school and moved into my dorm (so next week?). I won’t have time to post tomorrow, or sunday, or monday, or tuesday, or wednesday (since that’s the day I’m actally moving in), and so on and so forth, so it mkight be a while….
Oh, and all of my answers, unless stated otherwise, were from memory.
HP NEWS FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE CHANGING THE 6TH MOVIE RELEASE DATE TO JULY 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve- I’ve waited so long for it, so dutifully and loyally for months, AND THIS IS WHAT I GET?!?! RARRRGGGHHH!!!! *goes on murderous rampage at WB studios, accidently squashing Trevor the toad*
oops, sorry if double post, but I hit the “enter” key and it submitted my unfinished post.
So we have to wait almost a whole other YEAR to see the 6th movie!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here’s the article:
“Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” the sixth installment in the blockbuster film franchise about boy wizard Harry, is moving from its planned Nov. 21 release to July 17, 2009, distributor Warner Bros. said Thursday.
The move was made to take advantage of an open weekend in Hollywood’s busy summer season, said Alan Horn, Warner Bros. president and chief operating officer. The film had been on schedule, and the change was not due to any production snags, he said.
“The picture is completely, absolutely, 100 percent on schedule, on time. There were no delays,” Horn told The Associated Press. “I’ve seen the movie. It is fabulous. We would have been perfectly able to have it out in November.”
The switch will mean a two-year lag between the film adaptations of books five and six in J.K. Rowling’s fantasy series. But it will shorten fans’ wait between “Half-Blood Prince” and the final two installments, which are being shot simultaneously next year.
Based on book seven, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” the last two movies are due out in close order, in November 2010 and summer 2011. Horn said the later release of “Half-Blood Prince” will not affect the schedule for the final two movies.
Horn said the studio has had success with past summer “Harry Potter” releases, including the fifth movie, which was released in 2007 and became the second-highest grossing in the franchise.
The recent Writers Guild of America strike also had affected Hollywood’s lineup in next summer, leaving a key date open for Warner to slot in “Half-Blood Prince,” Horn said.
The July 17 release will be over the same weekend that Warner debuted this year’s blockbuster “The Dark Knight,” which had a record-breaking opening weekend and is on its way to $500 million domestically and the No. 2 spot on the all-time box-office charts behind “Titanic.”
Oh, not to take everyone’s minds off of trivia, but the other HP threads aren’t very active any more, and this one is.
Oops… heheheh… *runs out very quickly*
I don’t know exactly when this was asked, but Bellatrix means beautiful, or something like that.
As I understand it, Bellatrix means “woman warrior” (as in bellicose or belligerent, not belle of the ball; in Latin, “-trix” is the feminine suffix corresponding to “-tor”). Bellatrix the name of one of the stars in the constellation Orion — the closest one to Earth, in fact.
248-NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I don’t like any of the HP movies. *gets pied*
250 – I’m very annoyed at WB studios now. At least we won’t have to wait as long between that one and Deathly Hallows, Part 1.
242 – you missed part of my last question.
245 – I know! GRAH!! WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU, JKR??? DIDN’T YOU LIKE WEASLEYS’ WIZARD WHEEZES?!?!
253- Buy “Feminine suffix” yogurt! Silly phislopher- Feminine suffix is for kids!
*pops up after being busy for a while*
what is the password to the prefect’s bathroom? book 4
and to Dumbledor’s office in book 4?
253-Ah. Right. I think I knew that at one point, but I’ve forgotten.
221/223- Robert, you are my eternal source of merriment. I think I would die if you were not in the virtual world to make me pee myself with mirth (for example, like right now…) Terdlvoom is by far the funniest. It makes me think of poos doing car races…. *visualizes* *cracks up*
249- NOOOO!!!! TREVOR!!!!! Anyway, to compensate for the loss of HP goodness, they moved to Twilight release date to November 21!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I will be pronouncing this for many, many weeks with many, many exclamation points, so everyone brace yourselves for the onslaught. )
257-
253- I found a fan comic once about the meaning of Bellatrix’s name. In it, her name meant ‘constipation’. It was very confusing, because I believed it.
255-I’m with ya. *pied also* The fifth was meh, but the rest were downright horrid. They’re all bad (worse than bad, but I’m tired and can’t think of anything that wont get zapped) representations of the book, but at least the fifth was an okay movie to watch.
Robert: You’re bangin’ intense. ‘Nuff said.
261 – I didn’t even BOTHER to watch the fifth one. The third one was the worst. I also hated the fourth one. *gets trampled*
hello? 258?
the 3rd was pretty bad, but I liked the 4th, although there should have been more time with thedragons, and they SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A COUPLE OF MINUETS FROM THEAT BLASTED GRAVEYARD SCEAN AND SHOWN THE QUIDITCH WORLD CUP AND THE MASCOTS WHICH WERE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!! other than that it was ok
258- Pine fresh… Cockroach clusters? I forget which password goes with which book.
I have mostly forgetten what the movies were like. Nothing like the books, but that’s pretty much it. I won’t rant on it, that would take too long.
261- I never would have thought of describing Robert as “bangin’ intense”… although it’s quite accurate
262-I thought the first was the worst, and they got slowly better after that. If they trample the seventh and eighth (it’s already sacralige to make EIGHT movies) I’m going to learn the Bat Bogey Hex and use it on all of WB studios.
264-I spent a week and and three quarters with someone from Virginia Beach, my speech has been altered since.
Uhh… Who thinks the Sneakascope Ron gives Harry is fake, and why?
265- 3rd book- Ron gets Harry a sneakascope for his birthday, from Egypt. Percy thinks they’re just ripoffs to make money, because it kept lighting up and spinning during dinner. But he didn’t realize that Fred and George (or Gred and Forge! ) put dung beetles in his soup.
My Holiday Wish List-
Dear Santa,
All I want for Christmas is the Weasley twins.
What day were Fred and George born on?
267 – April Fool’s Day, oddly enough.
To whom (or what) does McGonagall say “CHARGE!!!” to in the battle of Hogwarts in the 7th book?
Who died, in all the books?
269-the house elves? *guesses off the top of my head*
270- Nope!
269-the students? the teachers?
272- No. And no.
273-grrrr….*pies in anger to no one in particular*
267-April Fools, duh.
269-The suits of armor and stuffed animals.
I made a list of who died in all the books, I left out a few but it’s on one of the Harry Potter threads… I’ll repost it in a minute.
Luna the lovley has 30 Muzey points.
275- Ummm, noooo. Would like me to just tell you?
269- The desks, statues, and armor.
272- Want seven brain points to add to your name?
What is encrypted on the gate that is the entrance to Nomengard?
I’m not sure if that’s how you spell Nomengard, correct me if I’m wrong please!
277-I didn’t mean stuffed like toys. I meant like the statues and suchlike.
279-For the greater good.
What color is Harry’s bedroom walls?
281- How the heavenly wungs am I supposed to know that???
where did Harry find Gryffindor’s sword after it was hidden?
What did Harry forget to remove that tried to strangle him?
Who rescued Harry from drowning?
278-Who? Me? Any particular reason for wanting to give them to me?
282-The sword was in the ground under some ice or something like that, Slytherin’s locket tried to strangle him, Ron rescued him.
201. 1 A sharp rock
2 a cheap lemon ice lolly (according to bloomsbury editions)
203–should we know? Wait, he started school 1971, so he must’ve graduated in spring 1978.
205. He was snogging Victoire Weasley, William Arthur Weasley and Fleur Isabelle Delacour’s daughter.
213. TM Riddle adopted Lord Voldemort as his name, because the phrase “I am Lord voldemort” is an anagram of his name, Tom MArvolo Riddle
216. Scar, and I forget why she changed it
223–you crack me up. The Dark Lord Movolterd!
238–your kidding, the chapter title (all)?
Harry James Potter; Ronald Bilius Weasley; Hermione Jean Granger; Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore
Lily Luna Potter; James Sirius Potter; Albus Severus Potter; Harry and Ron are aurors, neville is the Hervology teacher, etc.–don’t feel like going into more detail right now….
248. Yeah, it sucks–hey, this year’s roommate I think would have let me store a potter display in my room if I had managed to get one from one of the local stores when the DVD would’ve come out (probably would have been April 09), but who knows about next year’s roomie (assuming it’s not theh same one)
250. fabulous I can’t believe the guy think it’s fabulous–according to reviews, though, each movie has been better than the last, although in my opinion, they have been going steadily down hill, with HP5 being the definite worst of them all….
253–I can’t believe Bellatrix isn’t in my dictionary, since it’s the name of a star…..I’ve been trying to trace her name (sorta), and I knew it had to be a constellation/star/etc., since all the Blacks have those names, but wasn’t having much luck….
258. Oh, gosh, I should know this, and it’s driving me nuts that I can’t remember….I would go look it up, but since I’m no longer at home (I’m at college, in my dorm, recently remodeled, so I’m the first person to live in it) I can’t, cuz I didn’t bring my books, cuz I didn’t want to lose them….
It was candy, of some kind–oh, that’s right–cockroach clusters, wasn’t it?
255, 261 I hate ’em too
265–Percy, because it was lighting up at dinner, when he didn’t realize the twins had put beetles in his soup
267. April Fool’s Day
269. The animated coats of armor

281. peach, i think
282. in CoS, the Sorting Hat; in DH, a lake in the Forest of Dean

I have made 500 more M points.
(Answer to 149) Why yes, I am new, thank you for asking! Now, for a question of my own, that happens to be very easy because I’m bored and can’t think of anything better, (Not that that’s a good excuse) What animals are on the plates in Dolores Umbridge’s office? AND for some sort of bonus, what does Dolores mean in Latin? (HINT: Is involved in detention from Umbridge)
282-A little lake, the locket horcrux, and Ron.
286-Cats, and Dolores means pain, right? Because Dolor in Spanish is pain…
How many Muggle taxis took the Weasley’s, Harry and Hermione to King’s Cross in the fourth book?
Yay! People answered!
286-Cats that remind Harry of Mad-Eye Moody, and I have no idea what Dolores means in Latin.
286- Dolores means “lady of sorrows”, does it not?
286. kittens, at least one of which had piercing electric blue eyes the colour of Mad-Eye Moody’s glass eyejj
presumably pain, but I don’t know right off.
287. Ummm, I think it was like three, but I don’t know.
290- *gasp* LtL doesn’t know something about Harry Potter!!!!!!!!! Call the presses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
287 – One magically expanded taxi.
What was Harry going to buy on his first time on the Hogwarts Express, but it wasn’t there?

um…..
who does ron fall in love with because of a box of chocolates?
294- Correct. The other two?

297- Romilda Vane.
298- No idea.
293.2) I think Aunt Petunia’s hair is blond…maybe.
301- It is. The last one?
291: I don’t claim to know everything.
292: I had been thinking they were escorted by a couple more Ministry vehicles, in addition to the one they were riding in, but it is quite possible that I’m wrong (and unfortunately, I don’t have my books to go run and look up the answer….)
293: Mars Bars; blonde; a mug tree
297: Romilda Vane (sp?)
303- Wrong on #3, I do believe. *exasperated* Would you just like me to tell you?!
304: Really? I could have sworn it was one of those stand things that has mugs hanging on them (which I would dub a mug tree) that she knocked over….
As I, unfortunately, do not have access to either of my two US edition DH’s or even my UK DH, I cannot even go and prove myself wrong….*cries pitifully*
What is it, then? And could you do me a huge favor and type up like the paragraph it was mentioned in? Not that I don’t believe you, I do, it just would help me jog my memory….
305- She was leaning on a toaster, I believe. She might have knocked that down, but I don’t know. Sorry; no can do; I can’t do the paragraph thing.
297- Romilda Vane. Too easy.
306: Oh, lean against. That could very well be –I dunno. I was thinking you asked what she knocked over (and I think, in either OotP or DH, she knocked over a mug tree). Anyways, I need to learn to read, hehehe.
Hm…
What was the name of Bellatrix Lestrange’s brother-in-law?
309: Rabastan Lestrange
Ok, here are some questions (and I apologize if anyone has already asked them….I would have zillions of these, if I only had access to the HP trivia game that I started (and am still in the process of thinking of enough questions for), which I don’t, cuz the questions are on the family computer (on my account) at home…..)

Best go read geog now
(easy?) QUESTIONS
What house was Ernie in?
Who was Dilys?
Who was headmaster when Tom Riddle went to Hogwarts?
331: 1. (Ernine, as in Ernie Macmillan?) Hufflepuff
2. Dilys, Dilys, @#$% it rings a bell, but I can’t figure out why right now–I’m too busy cussing out my college profs and wishing them back to whatever foreign countries they came from, cuz I am sick of trying to understand their horribly accented/garbled english. They should not be trying to teach english speaking students, if english is not their first language, cuz I end up spending the entire language try9ing to understand what clame out of their mouth, instead of concentrating on the meaning of the words–like I would if I could understand themwithout trying.
sorry….I needed to vent.
3. Armando Dippet
So, Luna, it looks like it’s you and me on the MB right now… how about some ridiculously easy Harry Potter trivia?
All right, what is Harry’s middle name?
What happened to the time turners?
Er, whoops, I need periods.
What is the occupation of both of Hermione Granger’s parents? (I undoubtedly got the grammar wrong on that question)
How old is Voldemort?
Bonus: What does Voldemort mean?
333: James; they were smashed in OotP in the Department of Mysteries, in the Time Room, when Harry and company were fighting the Death Eaters; both her parents are dentists; well, Voldie was going to Hogwarts fifty years prior to Harry, and I believe he was a fifth year 50 yrs prior to CoS, so….*does quick computations*….would have been 65 in CoS, and 70 or so in DH; Voldemort is french for “flight from death” (according to John Granger, for whom I have much respect, given all of the things he correctly has inferred about the books, and predicted for DH)
Here’s some:
1. If you made a list of all the death eaters by last name, who would be last alphabetically?
2. Who were the beaters for the Bulgarian Nat’l Quidditch Team?
3. Colin Creevey’s dad does what?
4. Draco Malfoy’s paternal grandfather is named what?
5. What happened to Ron Weasley’s pet puffskein?
335: 1. Unfortunately, I don’t ahve access to my list of Death Eaters–the last that is coming to mind is Severus Snape (who was, at one point, a Death Eater, beforeo converting)
2. Oh, jeez, I dunno
3. According to an earlier questiion/answer, he’s a milk man
4. Abraxas
5. Gred and Forge used it for bludger practice (ok, ok, Fred and George–I loved that scene)
3-5 are right. 1 is Yaxley and 2 is Volkov and Vulchanov.
337: *pounds head against desk* Yaxley, Yaxley, how could I not have remembered Yaxley? He was only going to Malfoy Manor with Snape,and then was (unless I misremember) one of the Death Eaters went to Xeno’s…..oh, jeez, I’m an idiot….
338) Don’t worry about it, you’re not an idiot.
338-Yup, he want to Xeno’s.
Did anyone else know the “The Tales of Beetle the Bard” is going to be on sale in December??!!!?? I’m so excited!!!!!!
340: Yup, I knew–will be so totally awesome!!!!!
339: *in shocked voice* I’m not? You mean, my sister’s been lying to me all these years????

334~ John granger is amazing, I’m reading some of his books now.
344: Unarguably
343:
1. oh, jeez, I don’t remember….
2. don’t remember that one either…..
3. P–that’s an easy one
4. The language the Goblins speak is not called Goblin, but rather Gobbledegook, and it was Ludovic Bagman who commented that he can only speak one word of it, the word being Bladvak, and meaning pick axe
5. Homenus revelio
6. Once again, England did not partiipate in the Quidditch World Cup they comopeted in the prelims (so if you’re going for who beat them in the prelims, I don’t remember, if it even said)– and if you mean in the actual cup, the Irish one–beating Bulgaria, even though Krum got the snitch
7. Mm, it’s right at the tip of my tongue, but I can’t quite recall–did it involve cherries?
8.Puddlemere United, I believe
343 – Susan Bones, I think… not sure. Luna answered the rest that I know.
346: I think Susan was the first person sorted in PS, but I think CE was going for who was first sorted in OotP…
209. Yes, I suppose, although being named after a donkey isn’t exactly fun.
Name the ingredients for the polyjuice potion, and for some kind of bonus, name the procedure. Oh, and tell me, in book five, what sort of things does Harry hear on the news when he hides in the bushes?
What brings together Harry and Ron with Hermione? (If you can’t answer this question, get off this thread, and spend a while reading up on your Harry Potter books!)
347 – right… I thought it said “first year”… hehe…
Let’s see… fifth year. Ooh, ooh, it was that Abercrombie kid, wasn’t it? Yes! Er… Evan Abercrombie? Eh, whatever, it was something like that.
350: that’s ok….Oh, I think it was Euan, but hey, Evan Ambercrombie is a heck of a lot closer than I got…
349. um, lacewing flies, boomslang skin, and, um, oh, gosh it’s hard to think when watching monty python clips on youtube–i’ve never actually seen any mp before–rather hilarious–I like the song about sir robin, hehehe.
he was hearing about the drought, I believe, and something about a budgie learning to waterski (I think)
And, of course, Harry, Ron, and Hermioone were brought together after the fight with the troll on hallowe’en in the girl’s toilet in PS. duh
good job, the only ones not answered were 2- Assyria and 6- Transylvania beat England in the preliminaries 320-10. And flitwick ordered a cherry syrup and soda.
350- Its Euan not Evan. Close enough.
Anyways:
1. What is a Re’em?
2. What is the first name of Ron’s paternal grandfather, and who did he marry?
3. Cormac McLaggen could not try out for Quidditch in Harry’s fifth year because he did what?
4. What house was Moaning Myrtle in?
5. Hepzibah Smith’s elf’s name is what?
6. What is the name of the assistant to the Muggle prime minister who impersonated a duck?
7. The person who plays drums in the Weird Sisters was played by an actual rocker from what band?
8. A warlock from what country was given the memory charm by Lockhart for having a mole on his face?
9. The original name for the Death Eaters is what?
10. Which Durmstrang boy was denied wine and called “disgusting” by Igor Karkaroff?
352- Not answering, but there’s a FanFic where Harry calls the Death Eaters Death Munchers, and the bad Slytherins Death Nibblers. It cracks me up, and they don’t seem so scary that way, y’know?
352: Yes! I knew it had something to do with cherries….
1. A Re’em, if I remember rightly was a ox thing (that, by some weird occurrence, originates from something in the bible, according to the idiot who wrote the idiot’s guide to Harry Potter–a book I do not recommend, because, as I said, the stouffer person who wrote it is an idiot–numerous inaccuracies, etc. For instance, she says Dumbledore’s full names is Albus Wulfric Percival Brian Dumbledore–when we all know its APWBD)
Anyways.
2. I believe it’s whom did he marry–and I”m only correcting your grammar, to stall on answering the question, because I really don’t remember. (Oh, just googled it–septimus weasley, according to the HP wiki)
3. Oh, jeez, i don’t remember–why couldn’t you have asked who confunded him in tryouts in HBP? (also on wiki–just regular this time–he ate a pound of doxy eggs on a bet)
4. Ravenclaw
5. Hokey (ok, so I cheated, cuz I couldn’t remember–doncha just love google?)
6. Herbert Chorley
7. are you kidding? I don’t know any real bands! (well, in the movie, it was played by Phil Selway–googled, found on hp wiki)
8. it was an armenian warlock, I believe
9. according to wiki, the knights of walpurgis–which kinda makes sense, y’know? walpurgisnacht, and all (was that hallowe’en, or one of the others, by the way?)
10. oh, drat, I remember the scene, but the name escapes me…. (poliakoff, according to some obsessed person who has compiled every passage in which igor karkaroff appeared in GoF–now that is dedication….it’s the first entry if you google “karkaroff wine durmstrang deny”–without the quotes, of course)
ok, so I cheated on most, but 1,4,6,8 were my own work!!!!
Hmm. You needed Larry and Sergei to get to the answers. That’s cool. I used the HP wiki for 2 7 and nine. Ten is the only one you didn’t get, and the answer is Poliakoff.
Yeah, I knew Evan wasn’t right, but I decided “whatever”.
343 – Ooh, I remember now, the mimbletonia is from Assyria. But you already answered that yourself. Dangit!
352 –
1. Hm… I think it rings a bell far off, but my current conscience has no idea.
2. Gosh, I feel like I should know this… well, although I’m not sure this is true, it would make sense if he married someone from the Black family, right?
3. He ate something, didn’t he? Went crazy or something…
4. Ravenclaw, I believe
5. heh whatsit?
6. It was dorky-ish… it had an H… don’t remember
7. Was that in the books? Huh. I don’t know what you mean. Well, I don’t know the answer either way.
8. He was from Europe somewhere, but my brain’s not working too well. I don’t know if I ever really knew, actually.
9. Gosh, another one of those that I should know, but don’t. Heh, whatever.
10. I loved that part, it was a perfect character buildup thing… but I only know that his name ended with “koff”. I think.
Er, I was going to say something, but I don’t remember. Hehe.
355: Erm, actually, I did get 10, to quote myself:
oh, drat, I remember the scene, but the name escapes me…. (poliakoff, according to some obsessed person who has compiled every passage in which igor karkaroff appeared in GoF–now that is dedication….it’s the first entry if you google “karkaroff wine durmstrang denyâ€â€“without the quotes, of course)
i say poliakoff right inside the parentheses….’course, I did look it up, so it doesn’t count (but, then I looked up half the others, too….)
If the GAPAs will let me, there’s a hilarious quiz “Harry Potter and the Storm of Controversy”–hilarious because the arguments and viewpoints of some of the anti-potter people are just so absurdly false. I mean, where exactly is there blood drinking going on????
http:// www. funtrivia.com/trivia-quiz/Literature/Harry-Potter-and-the-Storm-of-Controversy-102720.html
“They [anti-potter groups] object to scenes of gory murders and blood-drinking….” I’m sorry, what? Gory murders? The vast majority of the murders were bloodless murders with the use of the AK–and blood drinking? Get real.
“Pokemon and Harry Potter- A Fatal Attraction, by Phil Arms, tries to convince readers that Pokemon and Harry Potter are Satanic conspiracies designed to corrupt our children.” OMG, this had me rofl
“They [Family Friendly Libraries] also believe that Harry Potter, due to his participation in Potions classes, is a drug peddler. They claim, â€The drug message in this book is clear. To reach your goals in life like Harry Potter you need to know how to make drugs and take drugs in just the right way or else you are a ‘dunderhead’ and will never succeed. Read the book for yourself and consider that the message is indeed there…” I haven’t laughed this hard in years! It was so incredibly absurd that it was hilarious!
“What is the title of the video, produced by Robert S. McGee and Caryl Matrisciana, which warns that Harry Potter’s scar is actually a swastika and that the broomsticks used in Quidditch are phallic symbols?” I’m sorry, but seriously? that is so–um, crazy
Tim “LaHaye [left Behind series] helped promote the “Harry Potter-Witchcraft Repackaged†video.” Well, now I have a good reason (since she doesn’t accept my religious viewpoints as a good reason) to use on my sister for why I won’t play her Left Behind game–doing so would be supporting an anti-potter whacko.
Anyway, if the GAPAs let the website through, you can read all this hilarity first hand!
I think I’ve remembered who Dilys was, peary moppins! Would it by any chance be Diilys Derwent, who if I remember rightly was out with Stubby Boardman (aka Sirius Black to Quibbler subscribers) on the night Peter Pettigrew was “killed”?
333. something to do with vermin, I think.
What does Dumbledore mean? (This is not really a trivia question, I was just wondering. I know it’s got something to do with bumblebees…)
221, 222, 223. (Tries not to laugh at… erm, Lord Molvoterd)
Sorry for the double post. Is there anyone around here to read my double posting anyway?
360- Dumbledore is an old word for bumblebee.
362- Dumbledore=bumblebee? Logic does not compute.
(363) It’s a regional word in the Devon dialect, I hear. Dumbledore doesn’t strike me as particularly beelike (though he does work hard, creates pleasant things, and carries powerful hidden weapons that he can use in an emergency). Maybe JKR just liked the word.
Apparently, some of the foreign translations say he likes to hum to himself.
Dumbledore also has a fondness for sweets–a rather beelike predisposition…..all the passwords to his study were the names of wizarding sweets.
ok–just an interesting note: We have established (via wikipedia) that the Death Eaters were originally named the Knights of Walpurgis. Additionally, we know that Gellert Grindelwald was defeated in 1945, the same year that Adolf Hitler committed suicide (suggesting a parallel between the two, when combined with other similarities Nurmengard/Nuremberg; “For the Greater Good”; and their oppression of “lesser” races).
It is also interesting to note, that according to wikipedia, Adolf Hitler committed suicide on the pagan holiday of Walpurgisnacht (May 1)–perhaps Grindelwald was not only defeated in 1945, but on this same holiday? And JKR mayhap was going to have them be the Knights of Walpurgis, in some form of tribute to the Dark Wizard Grindelwald?
Just a thought…..
366 – That’s really cool. I bet you’re right. *surfs books for cool trivia questions*
Eh, I’ll find a real zinger of a question later. Now I’m too lazy to look hard enough.
What was the last line to that song about the wizard Odo? Sixth book, Aragog’s burial.
“And his wand snapped in two which was sad.” According to something online–I googled it, cuz I didn’t know, and *sniff* don’t have my books at school!!!!
Okay, I have a few easy ones. And a few hard and stupid ones, too. All can be found (I’m pretty sure) in OotP.
What is Dolores Umbridge’s middle name?
What is Educational Degree #26?
What does S.P.E.W. stand for?
What animals are in the Fountain of Magical Brethren?
And I have to ask this, because I laugh out loud every time I read it: The Prophet quotes Fudge at the end of OotP, “We believe that the dementors are currently taking direction from Lord – _____________.” Fill in the blank.
370:
1. Jean
2. I don’t really remember what numbers corresponded to what degree (and I don’t feel like cheating and googling it right now, either….)
3. Society for the Promotion of Elvish Welfare
4. There is a warlock, a witch, a centaur, and a house-elf (and yes, the warlock and witch are animals)
5. Thingy (it cracks me up, because that’s the same thing Vernon Dursley called him in one of the books…..)
this blog is to LONG
Slytherins password in the 2nd book is_____
372: Pure blood
372- Pure Blood.
360- In early versions of JRR Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings series, the wizard known as gandalf was referenced as Dumbledore.
371 – I’m surprised, but your answer to #1 is incorrect. Maybe it’s a typo…
Sorry about the 26th decree, I just felt like being extra mean. If anyone else doesn’t come up with the answer, I’ll say it.
375: lol. Yeah, meant Jane. Jean is Hermione’s middle name.
sorry to double post, but:
374: Are you sure? I know in one of the Muse mags (prob’ly the LOTR one), it said that Gandalf used to be known as Dumbledore, but I’m pretty sure that was a spoof page, judging from everything else on the page (such as slurpie)–the editors never admitted to it, but they didn’t actually deny it either. ‘course, I did fall for that page at first. Of course, maybe you know something else that I don’t know, and that’s not where you got your info, and that was maybe actuallly something that was really true. I dunno…..
377- What, that was a spoof page? I don’t know. I always thought it was true. we’d have to ask an editor.
378: I think it was a spoof page, although I know I believed it for many issues…..Yup, we could, although if they were as mysterious as when readers were writing in after reading the article, they really won’t say one way or the other.
‘Twas a spoof.
305. I could have sworn it was a mug tree, too!!!
Here’s a question: What broom does Tonks ride?
Oh, I forgot – ED #26 is no teachers can tell students anything about anything but what they teach. Basically.
382 – It’s a Comet, right? Two-sixty, maybe? I dunno…
383: Oh, yeah. That one was hilarious–when the twins (it was the twins, right?) told Umbridge off for telling them to stop playign gobstones (or something) in class because it didn’t ahve anythign to do with the subject she was teaching? And thens he took loads of points away…..
Is Professor Sinistra a man or a woman?
385: Is this trivia, or do you just want to know? According to one of my scrapbook pages on JKR’s official site, where she was making a list of the genders of Hogwarts teachers for Azkaban, Prof. Sinistra was listed as female (Aurora Sinistra). but, at the same time, Divination professor was listed as male–and I can’t quite make out what the name is supposed to be. So, the gender could have changed by the time the books actually came out, but I don’t actually remember there being a gender listed in the books, so anyway…..
*skips all posts*
There’s to much for me. If I don’t get it all, I won’t get any.
I’m starting over.
I just read this headline about the moved HP movie date. This was the headline- “Voldemort hath no fury like to angry Harry Potter fans- Studio delays movie, gets death threats; ‘I hope you choke on your own saliva!'” Made my day! The media payed attention to HP, and I got a neew insult to add to my collection! Whoopee! Happy days!
388: lol–that’s hilarious.
I just read a russian book that is called “Porry Hatter and the Stone Philosopher”. It is just plain amusing. There’s “Merhione Pager”, a pureblood witch, a troublemaker, and later gets mugglified. There’s Sen Aesli, son of some Ministry dude, who is Porry Hatter’s best friend. There’s Krako Malhoy, a wacko Porry Hatter fan who refers to him as “My favorite sweetie”, who is accompanied by Grabbe and Coil, two boys “of intelligent appearance”.
And don’t even get me started on how wonderful Yugorus Loozh is.
(meaning the head of the equivalent of Slytherin)
390 *chokes on Airhead while laughing* *does international sign for choking- still laughing*
392-I know, right?
And………….Miss McCanarykl is a lady who is very obnoxious, and is very biased (in terms of giving extra points to her students).
386 – It was trivia. Sorry for any confusion.
390 – That’s just…bizarre.
What kind of sandwiches does Ron hate, but still manage to eat a ton of in McGonagall’s office in Book 2?
394: Ron hates corned beef. Or so he said on the Hogwarts Express in PS…..
395 – Correct! Yet in Book 2, he and Harry eat a ton of them when they weren’t allowed to go to the feast.
396: lol–so much for hating ’em…..
What’s the name of a small furry pet that Ginny had in book 6?
398 – Arnold the Pygmy Puff.
What does Dobby wear?
399- Thank you! I’m doing my NationStates thing, and I needed to remember the name of that.
400 – That’s a little too broad… he’s quite fond of socks, for obvious reasons, if that’s what you mean.
398: Arnold the Pygmy Puff
400: when he belonged to the Malfoys, he wore a pillowcase, i believe, and as a Hogwarts houself he wears a tea cosy (correct british spelling), but he also wears sock (zillions), Hermione’s house-elf hats, wacky shorts, t-shirt, etc.
403 – Not to mention the sweater (jumper, whatever) that Ron gave him.
This is a trivia question: What choice words did Malfoy have to say about the Weasley twins’ brooms?
404: Oh, gosh, I don’t remember. Something very condescending, though, I’m sure.
We need a new thread.
Or just more people posting. This thing runs slowly if I ever saw it.
404- Something mean, I suppose.
405, 408 – Well, you two are partly right. What he said was: “You could raffle off those old Cleansweeps. I expect a museum would bid for them.”
Wowzers. I haven’t been on here in forever.
New thread Oh Mighty GAPAs?
New thread!
