Fall of 2073 (IC-wise)

Welcome to Hufflepuff!

We would like to give our newest additions to Hufflepuff a warm welcome and hope you're enjoying yourselves so far! Congratulations on being sorted into our house of gold and black, we hope you're loving it and if not we assure you Hufflepuff and all its members will grow on you before you realize it.

Welcome back to the older students as well, please make sure to try setting a good example not only for the first years but on how a true Hufflepuff should present our house. ~~In other words Hogwarts is not a zoo, refrain from acting like monkeys outside of the privacy of the common room lounge.~~

With the Triwizard Tournament’s conclusion last term, Quidditch will resume same as usual this school year. Keep a look out for Tryouts on the bulletin board if you’re interested and be sure to cheer on our Badgers at their matches (to be announced)!

Additionally, Mr. Ikenna Gevrik, Special Security Liaison to the School through the Ministry of Magic, is spending the year with us. Please try your best to make him feel welcomed.

This being said, have a wonderful (and safe) term, everyone!

(OOC) F.A.Q.

Where can I find my member number?
You can find your member number by clicking on your username to view your profile, and then by looking at the number at the end of the link. For example, mine (imaginarynumb3rs’) would be 97404.

What year are we supposed to be in?
It's currently the year of 2073-74, term 27.

Do I have to do the homework and attend classes?
No, it is not mandatory. However, if you want to earn house points for Hufflepuff, completing homework and participating in the classes is the best way to do it.

What does OOC mean?
OOC means ''Out Of Character'', while IC means ''In Character''.

How can I get involved in the school story? I feel so out of everything.
There are so many ways to get your character involved in the RPG! The best ways are having them join the Quidditch team, participate in the classes, and meet other students! Also, if you're confused about what's going on in the school's plot line, take a look at Hogwarts, A History; it should help answer a lot of your questions.

Is there a Head Boy and Girl? Are there Prefects?
Indeed there is! They are Kellen Stern (Ashwinder) and Trixie Malfoy (feltbeatslover22) and can be identified by a Head Boy and Girl Tag, respectively, under their usernames.
In addition, there are still two Prefects for each house, and they will be designated by a Prefect's Badge under their username.

If you have any other questions feel free to PM myself, Wenz (Wenzlebug), Lindsey (Lindzers) or our lovely HoH, Colley (Colley ♥). You can also go to Question Thread as well.

Classroom Tips

1. Respect your teachers and classmates.
2. If you come online while the class is already going on, do not announce that you are late. Simply act like your character’s been there the whole time, otherwise teachers will deduct points from our house.
3. If you’ve got to leave before the end of the lesson, do not announce it.
4. Unnecessary chatting in the classroom will not be tolerated.
5. Keep OOC comments to a minimum.
6. When the teacher asks a question, feel free to raise your hand and offer an answer. The quickest answers as well as the most creative answers can be rewarded with house points.
7. Please be patient if the professor doesn’t answer you straight away. We all live in different timezones and have other responsibilities in real life, so it is possible the teacher had to leave for a few minutes/hours.
8. Be creative and have fun!
