| | |  Fourth clue of Pottermore's Magical Quill Challenge on Goblet of Fire now closed
The Fourth Round of Pottermore.com’s Magical Quill Scavenger Hunt has been launched, giving Harry Potter fans worldwide the chance to have early access to the expansive new website by answering a question from the fourth novel, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
A screencap of the question for Day Four, August 3, 2011, can be seen below: 
For those who have found the question and managed to register, you may discuss the question/answer in this thread but please put your comments in a spoiler tag to avoid spoiling other fans. [*spoiler=Pottermore Magical Quill Day Four]Answer text[*/spoiler] – but remove the asterisks (*).
Once registered, you may also insert your Pottermore name into your SnitchSeeker profile, if you would like to, by following this link and completing the field titled "Pottermore Username".
SnitchSeeker will continuously update with news on Pottermore every day of this week, including when the new clues are released. Thursday’s question will revolve around the fifth and largest book, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, so it may be worth brushing up on your knowledge of the Department of Mysteries (for it’s a mystery what the clue will be!). Note: If you figured out the clue and answer, and have been able to register and get your verification, you are done with this stage of the Pottermore experience. You will no longer have to register again this week through the Magical Quill challenge; the next part is to await for the Welcome Email for the Pottermore beta site, which will be sent anytime between August 7 to September 30, 2011. UPDATE: The Pottermore Insider Blog has once again updated, answering a question asked by many regarding the creation of multiple accounts. Quote: I’ve found The Magical Quill more than once. Am I allowed to create multiple early access Pottermore accounts?
No. You may only register for the early access period once. Please refer to the conditions of participation in The Magical Quill promotion Terms & Conditions.
UPDATE 2: The Fourth Day is now closed. Be sure to check back tomorrow for another chance to register. UPDATE 3: The Pottermore Insider has revealed a hint on the timeframe of the next clue. Quote: UPDATED: So far, all the clues have appeared in the early hours of the morning in my time zone. Will this continue for the remainder of The Magical Quill challenge?
We know that Harry Potter fans around the world are taking part in the challenge, so we will be varying the times that the clues are revealed. We can tell you that today’s clue (Day 5) will be released between 4.30pm and 8.00pm BST. For all those unfamiliar with British Summer Time, that's 3.30pm - 7pm GMT; 11.30am - 3pm EST; 8.30am-12pm PST.  | |

So now I'm stuck with CloakAsphodel185, which isn't horrible, but it's not what I would have chosen...anybody else have this problem? It doesn't let you pick your username, ever. It always gives you a randomly generated one, choice out of five.

After I entered quill.pottermore.com/*** -- the next page said Congratulations! You got the Quill...or something like that. Quite weird 'cause my sister registered the last time and I saw the page wherein you have to actually catch a glowing quill. I'm using the latest version of Firefox, btw.

When should I be expecting the email? For those who already signed up previously, how long did it take you to find it?

It took me about a half hour to receive my email. I know someone who registered the same day as me and it took a few hours. But we all got ours, so don't worry too much | |

HeartAuror190 is here!  It's makes me seem much cooler than Crookshanks the cute and cuddly kitty! Finally! After setting the alarm clock to the early hours of the morning (I had to snooze it like around 20 times) and keep checking Pottermore for the clue, I literally slipped off of my seat (and yes somehow that is possible) when I saw it up. All I got to do now is wait for the validation email. I hope it doesn't take long.

It'll be a lot easier to get some sleep though, with this all over and done with.
