One of the most rewarding things you can do in your seven years at Hogwarts is win the House Cup and having tasted that victory last term I found that I rather fancy it. It is not an easy feat, but with a little elbow grease and a little perseverance anything is possible.
In the common room, a poster of a lion may be found on the wall by the pasteboard. Here, Professor Flamsteed, your Head of House, will display the names of the top five achieving students and leave a few words of wisdom. These names will be updated on a regular basis, so be sure to keep up with classes and homework if you hope to glimpse your name on this prestigious list. The lion is enchanted, and will purr affectionately when approached by one of the top students, however if you have been lazy, don't worry too much. He can't hurt you, though he might try to take a swipe at you with his paw. Good things he's just a poster.
How can you hope to see your name on this list? Simply attend all your classes, complete any homework assignments in a timely manner, and perform random acts of kindness, chivalry, and bravery. You never know when your actions may be rewarded!
United we will conquer, divided and we will be defeated.
OOC: Welcome to the Roar Awards! Here I will post the top five students with the highest house points. To give Gryffindor a fighting chance at winning the Cup this term, all you need to do is get involved. Lessons and homework will earn you points, unless of course you break the rules, then you will lose points. But the main point is to keep spirits high and do whatever you're comfortable with. Just have fun! | |

Welcome, WELCOME...to another year at Hogwarts, Gryffindors. With the school term well underway, it pleases me to see so many of you applying yourselves to your studies and extracurricular activities. We, as a house, are only just getting warmed up and I sense GREAT things from all of you this term. As the great W. B. Yeats once said, do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking. SO STRIKE, GRYFFINDORS! STRIKE! Take advantage of every opportunity! Whether that be in lessons, homework, duel practice, creature shenanigans, or simply challenging your dorm mate to a friendly game of Wizard's Chess...make sure you are giving it your all.
Each and every one of you and your efforts is important, and here is a special thanks to our top 5 point earners thus far.
Hera - 89
PhoenixStar - 82
Harry174 - 72
GoldenSnake - 70
JustAlice - 46
The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as long as we live...so do not waste it. Do not waste anything. You never know when things may slip away. Like beloved pet rocks.
Well done so far, Gryffindors! Keep up the pace and continue being your own sort of Gryffindor.
ROAR ON LIONS!

Congratulations, Gryffindors! We're a little over halfway through the school year and so far your relentless tenacity has paid off! A special congratulations to our Gobstones team who not only proved this article wrong, but came out victorious against Slytherin 23 to 4 in the last match! Thank you to each and every one of you lions who stepped up and gave it your best toss, and a special roar out to Mr. Jackson Hwang (RandomRaven) for being selected player of the match! Remember, there are gobstones kits in the Game Lounge for you to practice with should you so desire.
Another special roar out to our top 5 point earners at this point in the term.
PhoenixStar - 167
Hera - 161
Harry174 - 124
Holmesian Feline - 111
ArianaBlack - 104
The castle may be full of cobwebs, but be sure not to let your minds nor your spirits be full of them! Keep up the stellar work lions! Remember, your diversity is what makes our house so special and never let anyone put you in a box. You are all doing fantastically.
ROAR ON LIONS! And...if you happen to see Pebbles...please bring her home? I would be eternally grateful.

Stellar job, lions! We are now in the home stretch here and your resilience has not wavered. We are still in a fine position to secure the House Cup so be sure to check the pasteboard often to keep on top of your assignments and a special thank you to all you lions out there contributing to make sure it is up to date! AND A SUPER SPECIAL ASTRONOMICAL THANK YOU TO MR. ATREYU AND MISS VALENTINE FOR BRINGING PEBBLES HOME! I have put in a request for you to receive the Special Award for Services to the School and expect there will be a ceremony in your honor soon.
And congratulations to our current top 5!
PhoenixStar - 357
Holmesian Feline - 278
Harry174 - 255
Hera - 240

Keep strong, lions, and in the words of an infamous former Headmaster of Hogwarts (and Gryffindor) - DON'T DIE!
ROAR ON LIONS!
