| | |  Gobstones Preliminary Match: Hufflepuff vs. Gryffindor
 The building used for the Gobstones matches had had its doors closed against the early autumn morning chill. Its surfaces magically dusted by Professor Tanner and Mr. Kitridge, the school's Gobstones sponsors and made ready for the term's first preliminary match.
The yellow and green marbles were set out and the playing 'field' had been marked. Chairs were set out on each side of the arena creating a Viewing Area for those not playing to watch.
OOC: Remember only members sorted into Hufflepuff and Gryffindor Houses can post in this thread, it is not a chat thread and there is no rping.
Read the Gobstones Rule book before playing and if you did last term, please check again for potential updates and changes.
Any question please contact Nordic Witch and/or hpluvr037.

Mr Kitridge had walked in with his hands stuck in his coat pockets against the brisk autumn morning air, the Arithmancy Professor had graciously set up the hall for the first match so Leo could focus on lighting the fireplaces and getting warmed up.
As the teams assembled he put his wand to his mouth to enhance his whistle to get the players attention. "Good morning and welcome to the Gobstones club, today's our first game of the season, I hope you're all as excited and geared up as I am." Not waiting for any responses Leo quickly signalled for the teams to choose their representatives for the first shot of the game.
"Let's begin!"

For the first roll with the shooters Gryffindor sent out Emmylou Duchannes and Hufflepuff sent out Leah Abbott. The two girls swung their shooters and kicked their stones forward in the court. The red stone circled a few obstacles before it lost speed and stopped. The yellow stone surpassed its opponent on its way to clear four more obstacles before it too stopped.
"The first point of the match goes to Hufflepuff!" Leo declared from the sideline.

Emmy and Leah handed over their shooters to Adi and Zander who eagerly marched out for their first battle. The two boys swung their shooters and kicked their stone's forward. The red stone shot forward and knocked head first into a obstacle causing it to drop to the court and stop. Oozing out some smoke but no gob. The yellow stone surpassed it's opponent and cleared 3 more obstacles before it stopped.
"2 points to Hufflepuff! Come on lions!" Leo announced and cheered on with a glance over at the stands that was filling up with spectators.

Valentine and Rehman took to the court again. Adi seemed to have picked up some sort of luck on the bench during the short break. He was getting his house's stone closer and closer to the Gryffindor's stone, and the goal in extension. "3 points to Hufflepuff at the end of the first round. Hufflepuff leads 6-0 as we head into the second round!" Leo declared.

Adi remained for the badgers while the lions sent in firstie Marsha Hanover. The two swung their shooters and watched their stones take off. The red stone just rolled a few meters before it stopped and sprayed up a gush of smelly gob. Eww, watch out! The yellow stone surpassed its oppent and cleared 2 obstacles before it stopped.
"1 point to Hufflepuff! Come on lions!" Leo cheered on. If the badgers got a too big lead his hope for a tight match would be ruined.

Adi kept on for the badgers while the lions switched in Cinnamon Bayless. Hoping that a fresh player would have better hand with the shooter and stones. The two swung their shooters and kicked their stones forward. The red stone sped off oicking up pace as it rounded obstacle after obstacle but suddenly it just lost all its speed and stopped. The yellow stone had been trailing behind its opponent and now moved to surpass and around another obstacle before it stopped.
"2 points to Hufflepuff! Come on lions!" Leo cheered on.

Duchannes and Rehman took to the court again. Adi seemed to have picked up some sort of luck on the bench during the short break. He was getting his house's stone closer and closer to the Gryffindor's stone, and the goal in extension. "3 points to Hufflepuff at the end of the second round.

Personal Year Number = month of birth + day of birth + current calendar year.

It was Duchannes and Rehman again for the next roll. "One point to Hufflepuff," she said as Adi's stone rolled true. "Let's go, Gryffindor!" She felt badly for rooting on one house, but it was obvious they needed the encouragement more at this point.
