 Month 7 resultsHufflepuff were awarded +20 points Gryffindor were awarded +20 points Slytherin were awarded +20 points  Month 7 Event 1 - Druidic Patchall Paste - Duel With life starting to return back to Hogwarts after a nice break. it didn't take too long for the first hitch to occur with Keane and Octavius each seeking to prove to the whole school that their recipe source was truest! Gryffindor and Hufflepuff pored over their notes, and eventually elected Chaoslord to get up and speak to everyone about what they found out. "Um.. hi... well uh, Keane's 'book' was uh really cool and... yes what was that Trevor? no shut up i'm getting to that!.. anyway yeah the book was like, good and stuff and GRYFFINDOR RULEZ PEACE." and farted out a few orange sparks from his sad looking wand and ran away giggling. Ravenclaw and Slytherin didn't know what to make of it. Poor Octavius was scrabbling on parchment and didn't pay any attention. his face was completely focused, and with a sigh, he handed it over to Mulberry to present "Hellllloooooooooooooooooo everyone my name is Mulberry Evergreen and you know i'm really happy to be up here and talking to you because talking is sooooooo fun and i love it and i know that um whatever all this paper says is suuuper interesting and you'll love it and then we'll all be friends! Yay!!! Well lets start from the top then "As you can see from Albertus Scimpii in 300AD, it is clear that druidic herbology and potioncraft is much intertwined..." Mulberry went on in a very animated fashion for over 20 minutes reading from the paper. "... and so we can deduce that this recipe is the one true recipe. The end! Wow that was fantastic! i mean, i didn't understand anything of what i just said but i'm sure it was really cool and we're all super smart and everything and yay us! Woo!" and she skipped off throwing her parchment into the air, Octavius looking at his work puddled on the floor in horror. Headmaster busb appeared from the side and piped up"Great work everyone! What fascinating presentations. +15 Points to Slytherin! Oh and +5 points to Ravenclaw i'm sure they put in some work, but great speech Mulberry!"  Month 7 Event 2 - Moonlighting - Individual Professor Mudd was very keen to test if people were still paying attention to his classes after the gluttony of xmas (which he definitely didn't partake in himself, oh no). Researching into what phase of the moon werewolfs are most fierce at and how to best counteract them proved to be a contentious task. After mulling over the proposed solutions to his problem, he smiled and patted newcomer Aedon on the head, and proclaimed "+20 points to Slytherin, that is a very solid report son, great job!"  Quidditch Month 7 - Ravenclaw vs Gryffindor While to the kids, excitement was in the air for the return to Quidditch and half of the competition to go, the Professors looked on with a wary eye, as the teams both looked a bit tired from their xmas overexertions. While some kids shouted encouragement to Ravenclaw given the detention of Keane, Ravenclaw showed exactly what they were made of. As quaffle after quaffle passed through their goals, all they absentmindedly attempted was to point the Gryffindor seeker in the direction of the snitch, so they could think about the best thing in the world... studying for the yearly exams! Gryffindor won 150-0 Gryffindor has won +40 points House Cup status: Slytherin: 395 Gryffindor: 345 Hufflepuff: 235 Ravenclaw: 225 busb fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Sep 18, 2017 |

 Month 8 1d10=3 1d10=3 Charms Double Event! Month 8 Event 1 - Trumpeting Totes Professor Mudd, always keen to keep students on their toes in his classes, decided that he would like nothing better, than for his favourite tune to be played every time he walked past students across the school! The spell would not be easy, but to sweeten the deal, Mudd offered what he didn't love most (that was pork pies and delicious vintage fizzwhisky), but instead points! The students could definitely see how important these points could end up being, and none of them even considered making their bags sound like farts! This event will test your: =(Effort + Charms + Empathy) + (Effort+Astronomy) + (Effort+Cunning) + 4Duellist, +4Pranking, +4Bullying The House with the largest combined total wins +30 points The individual with the largest contribution wins +10 points A tied result means all tying houses win +40 points Hogsmeade is closed for Students, but still open for Professors. * Colin Creevy’s Notes (43 available) - 40G - while in possession, the notes’ owner lets them take 1 other student and/or Professor to the Room of Requirement for the entire month(private discord channel) * Sparker 290 - 10g - This broom adds a player's Empathy to their Flying skill in all Quidditch games * Polyjuice potion (3 available) - 30g - (Professor only) - While in possession, this Professor may PM the mod to pick one Event per month and will contribute the same amount as the lowest contributor of the target player's house to their Event contribution total. busb fucked around with this message at 13:59 on Sep 18, 2017 |

Given the extended deadline and single event, there is a purse of Galleons sitting on my desk that I have earned throughout the year. It would be my privilege to hand it over to a deserving player. What makes can a deserving player? Well I need your help to figure that out. Players may nominate a player from a different house who deserves a prize. Entries must be less than 200 words in this thread describing why they are a benefit to Hogwarts, a shining example of their house, or anything else. If professors nominate a student it must be one they are not aligned with.

busb posted:Okay fine make them a novel then if you want to! Haha no I will keep it within reason  I want to nominate Keane - I really like hanging out in the commons and getting to know the other non-Slytherins, and of everyone I feel like Keane is the person that I've gotten to know best. I've learned so much about giants since we became friends! I honestly like all of the Gryffindors that I've gotten to know, but admittedly I tend to appreciate people who can keep the pace with me when it comes to conversation and so I think he deserves it.

xiw posted:I'm going to nominate Deena for managing to actually do well at two subjects! With all the PLOTTING and PLANNING and CONSPIRACIES it's nice to see people remembering to go to class. Aww. I'm happy to discover I've made an impression. It has certainly been my best effort to keep up my attendance and to help struggling students. However - I must confess that all this inter-house competition has flown right over my head. After all that nasty business at the beginning of the year, I'd decided to throw myself into my studies and while yes, I certainly hope it does pay off for my presently under-performing House, what are we here to do except to learn? In that vein, I'd like to express a fair amount of disappointment at my inability to nominate my Housemate Nintholomew, who has been an absolute slave to the intricacies of the inter-house rivalries and has been doing his absolute best to attempt to secure the Cup for Ravenclaw. That perseverance in the face of what you will no doubt grant me appears to be considerable adversity is always admirable. I would consider it quite the boon if someone from another House would take the time to nominate him in my stead. There's no self-serving element to this request - I believe, individual to individual, that he's earned it. I know he'll end up spending it on trying to beat your House somehow - let us both come to that simple fact with open arms - but I wish he'd spend it on something nice for himself instead. (You should see the state of his robes, what with all his running around.)

Podima posted:This is a fairly weak attempt at subverting the spirit of the headmaster's challenge. I'm disappointed in you. Consider what you could instead be doing to advance intra-house relations, like your peers! I disagree entirely! If one of our House is to stand, it should be he - not me. Doubly - nay, triply! - so for choosing who might be worthy of a proper Ravenclaw nomination. It would be preposterous of me to attempt to do such a thing. Further, Professor, if I could be accused of anything, it would in fact be advancing intra-house relations, rather than inter-house relations. The reality is quite the opposite - though perhaps my intent would be better put this way? Headmaster, should you consider my nomination worthy of reward, please instead distribute your prize to Nintholomew, with stern instructions to get himself something nice. Indeed, were I to hazard a nomination, it would only be to seek the favor of my intended companion for the year-end formal, which is certainly not what the Headmaster seeks to reward. Presumably. Now if you'll excuse me, my crop of Venemous Tentacula are almost ready for... heh heh... field testing.

Blatant manipulation aside, I really would like to nominate Nintholomew, for being willing to forgive. Everyone knows that we failed Ravenclaw rather spectacularly in the past, and I shoulder a fair portion of that blame. I would 'ave understood if 'e 'ad wanted nothing more to do with our 'ouse from that point onward; 'e would 'ave been quite justified in it! But 'e didn't take the easy way, or give in to anger. 'E was understanding about the fact that we made an 'onest, disastrous mistake, and was willing to move forward. For that, I really am incredibly grateful towards 'im. Thank you, Nintholomew, and the rest of Ravenclaw as well.

If it's not too late to nominate someone for the gold award, I'd like to nominate Dārta from Hufflepuff. At a time when I felt short of friends Dārta was there for me, someone to count on when I needed help with coursework or dating advice, someone I could relate to, someone who has made my stay at Hogwarts more enjoyable for being here.

Month 8 Results: Month 8 Event 1+2 - Trumpeting Totes Musical notes played throughout the school, but the best charmed totes turned out to be a lovely chorus of slyphic prog-wing-chanting from Ravenclaw! But the best individual tune was Celestine's gorgeous rendition of La Vie en Rose - played on a tricoleure bumbag, Unfortunately it was to be part of a chorus, but due to some strangely animated totes, her comrades were too busy sitting on them to muffle their incessant yelling of "HEADMASTER busb SMELLS FUNNY PAAARP  "Ravenclaw has been awarded +30 points Slytherin has been awarded +10points Quidditch Round 8 With a lot to play for, the Slytherin team took to running a huge offensive game. Whatever they tried to do however, Hufflepuff matched them, and the first period o fthe match saw Hufflepuff creep to a 90-80 lead. Quaffle after quaffle seemed to bamboozle the Slytherin goalie, and even with some sharp beater action, the lead kept increasing, until the final whistle blew, leaving the Hufflepuffs victorious once again in a 340-100 smashing. Can anybody stop this late season juggernaut? Truly Gryffindor vs Hufflepuff willon the return leg will be a fascinating spectacle! Hufflepuff has been awarded +40 points!
