Hogwarts RPG Name:
Maximus O. Vindictus III
First Year
Default Rule Book Changes
No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher

The following changes have been made to the Hogwarts Quidditch Rule Book (changes are in bold red):



Quote:
Seeker
The Seekers must be knowledgeable about the Harry Potter universe. During the game, Snitch questions will be presented. These will be the more difficult questions.

The first Seeker to answer the question correctly will get a bit closer to catching the Snitch and their team will receive 50 points. After a Seeker correctly answers three Snitch questions, the game is over.

The Seekers cannot edit their posts, but they may post their answer more than once and can double/triple/quadruple post until they have posted the correct answer.
**The Seeker is now awarded 50 points for each Snitch capture, instead of the original SS Quidditch rule of the Seeker with 3 catches receiving a lump total of 150 points.

Games
The Quidditch season in the school RP will consist of a total of six (6) games, with each House having the opportunity to play in at least two (2) games each. Each game will happen in one session lasting 2 to 3 hours. The game ends when one team has caught the Golden Snitch three times, and the team who has scored the most points will be declared the winner.

The Quidditch games are set up in a tournament-style bracket. The team that wins its first two games will advance to the Quidditch Cup Championship Game and will face the team who wins game 5 of the bracket. The championship game will be the last game of the school term. The winner of the championship game (game 6) will be the official Quidditch Cup Champion and will receive House Points for the total number of points they score in the game (including the Snitch). The loser of the championship game will finish in second place and receive 100 House Points or the amount of points they scored in the game (whichever is greater).

The team that loses game 5 will place third in the Quidditch Cup standings. The team that loses game 4 will place fourth in the Quidditch Cup standings. No points will be rewarded to teams finishing third or fourth in the standings.

Please note that House Points are only rewarded for the championship game. Points will not be rewarded for the other games.

During the match, the only people who should be in direct contact with the Quidditch official are the team captains or administrators who are consulting with the official (see "Unsportsmanlike Conduct" for the penalty). It is important that the official is not distracted during the running of a game, so please be courteous and avoid contacting them until the game is over.
**The change is to the bracket. Game 3 is now played between the losing teams from Games 1 and 2. Game 4 is now played between the winning teams from Games 1 and 2.
