Professor Shackleton walked into the circle and stopped all the Hufflepuff gobstones. Shaking her head, she turned to the Hufflepuff team and said, "I have asked you all to read the rules thoroughly and yet, you have broken them. Each House gets one chance per turn to roll a Gobstone! If the first person's roll is off, you cannot correct them with your own Gobstone. That is why it is imperative for each student to ensure that their Gobstone is on course." Then realizing she was being a bit harsh for the first time this game has ever been played by the students, she added in a softer tone, "Here is what I am going to do. I am going to ask you to read the rules in their entirety once more. Since Gryffindor did not take their turn, though they had plenty of time, I am not going to award them the point for this question. Normally, they would not need to take their turn in order to get the points, but since this is the first question, I will not penalize Hufflepuff. But know that next time, I will have no choice but to award Gryffindor the point."

OOC: Please no more than one person from each house answering the question. Even if that person is wrong, you are not allowed to correct them. Not to mention that if Gryffindor had come to actually answer, you would have given them the correct answer anyhow and their answer would have counted, not yours. I know this is new and we're all getting our feet wet, so let's try again
