Default Magical Shuffleboard!



An area near the Duck Pond has been cleared and the ground temporarily smoothed to make way for the Shuffle Board competition. Every student who wants to try their skills at this game will select a broom-shaped paddle in which they will get three chances to push weighted pucks down the court and into the scoring area.

At the far end of the smoothed rectangular board is a triangular scoring area in which your objective is to push the disks within the zone. The zone is divided up into four numbered sub-zones, the numbers representing point values. If the disk lands completely within the smallest triangular tip, without touching any borders of the triangle, it's worth ten points. Completely within the second tier of the triangle - trapezoidal shaped - scores you eight points. Within the third tier - also trapazoidal - seven points. However, if it lands in the large, rearmost and also trapezoidal section, it will be minus ten points. For the game purposes, each student will get three chances and whichever player scores the most points, wins.
SPOILER!!: Prizes

-30 - 0 points: ONE OF replica Albus Dumbledore beard, replica Gran Longbottom hat (squawks)
0 - 10 points: ONE OF Exploding Snap Cards, Trick Wand
10 - 20 points: ONE OF Six pack of Butterbeer, Dragon hide gloves
20 - 30 points: ONE OF Gift basket of Sugarplums treats, Honeydukes giftcard

EVERYONE receives ONE commemorative token for participating.

The Rules:
  1. Each student gets 3 pucks, therefore 3 attempts at gaining the most points.
  2. You must RP pushing the pucks down the court with your broom-shaped paddle.
  3. You won't ALL get into the small triangular section, every time.
  4. You will need to RP a minimum of 3 quality posts at pushing all of your weighted pucks into the scoring area. By "quality" we mean at least one good sized paragraph, 4 lines of text, and a bit of effort put into the posts.
  5. Staff members will be keeping score and the results will be announced at the end.
  6. Have fun!
