Truebridge had the class set up differently today, there were tables arranged in clusters of three- seven desks, no real rhyme or reason in it. He was sitting at his own desk, apparently completely engrossed in reading a book.
You should probably sit down and get ready for class. | |

"Err..." she hedged uncertainly. "I'd say... yes to the first, no to the second." Quote:

"Yes to both," she said. OOC: It's like... midnight over here. If a few likely lads or ladies get three more posts together for me soon, I can reply one more time, otherwise it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Copernicus directed his questions at Natka. "Natka, is your organization the Official Gobstones Club?"
He didn't mind wasting his guess if it got that choice out of the way right off.

Nancy quite hesitantly raised her hand this time as she turned to face the Ravenclaw girl, Natka. "Uhm...Natka. Just like a rather random guess but is your organization Q.U.A.B.B.L.E.?" She bit her lip as she waited for the girl to answer. It really had been a rather random guess.

Those two were good guesses. Good question about brooms too. But there were still two more that could fit the profile, she guessed.
Guess... if she had more questions or guesses, she would give it a try with Kiri's organization. (OOC: I can't, right?)
con: you can guess for Kiri. I didn't make it particularly clear but you can have two questions OR a guess for each volunteer.
She had little to base her opinion of but, "Kiri, is your organization the Most Extraordinary Society of Potioneers?"

Irrelevant," he uttered almost immediately before realising the answer should either be yes or no, there was no irrelevance to it. "Oh erm... yes. I mean, no. No it's not." Quote:

MUST-WIN-THIS-GAME.
Anyhow, words started to pour from his mouth. “Hey! Varius, mate. Is it more than two words long?” The first year really didn’t have any smart questions to ask. This wasn’t QUITE his subject of strength. Varius liked Cy and he also liked Cy's question. Counting his fingers he eventually answered, " Yes". Quote:

Raising her hand, she said, "Varius, does your organization support the belief that a group of children or students can take a stand on a situation just as strongly as a group of adults can?" Oh wow. These questions were getting tough! His brow was beginning to sweat. Reaching up to wipe it he thought about what the answer could be as technically it could potentially be either of the answers. In the end up he decided to go with, "Irrelevant. I mean, no. Not no, just not irrelevant. I've decided to change my answer to yes. Yes it can."

Copernicus directed his question at Varius. Erm. What to ask the hyperactive Hufflepuff?
"Tipps, does your organization work for social justice? Do the members have something in common that has to do with their physical form?"

" Varius," Anna said, her hand still in the air. "Is your organization 'S.P.E.W., or the Society for the Promotion of Elvish Welfare?" Anna had always liked S.P.E.W., as the elves at Hogwarts had always been really loving and helpful creatures. Edit: Ha ha. I'm awful at this game, aren't I? lol I thought one question AND one guess was allowed per person, but I see now. Sorry 'bout that.

"V?" Raising her hand, Cela asked, "Is your group one that a witch or wizard can choose to join, I mean, instead of having to be invited or asked?" In other words, was it a non-exclusive club. "And, if someone is part of the organisation you are representing, would it be considered a profession?"

"I'm sorry Anna, I am not at liberty to say as you only get to ask me two questions OR have one guess and since you have already asked me one question," he turned to face Professor Truebridge to make sure he made the right call?

Cy nodded fervently as Varius asked his question, he then went on the violently scratch out all of the mere ‘two word’ organizations. The first year was so anxious that he appeared to be almost falling over the front of his desk.
Listening to him answer everyone else’s questions though, his attention was soon brought to that Slytherin, Kiri Starstalker. His small arm shot into the air so fast it was almost inhuman. “Hey you!", The gestured at Kiri, "WIZENGAMONT! Am I right mate, am I?” His eyes could not be opened any wider, his head was nodded for reassurance. He almost looked like a bobble-head.

Diane mmhed again. "Herminny, is your organization one of the Hogwarts Houses?" Her last question to Herminny. Plain but, if Diane was correct, it may give out the definite answer before long.
