| | |  Gobstones Preliminary Match: Gryffindor vs. Slytherin
 The building used for the Gobstones matches had had its doors closed against the late autumn morning chill. Its surfaces magically dusted by Professor Tanner and Mr. Kitridge, the school's Gobstones sponsors and made ready for the term's second preliminary match.
The red and green marbles were set out and the playing 'field' had been marked. Chairs were set out on each side of the arena creating a Viewing Area for those not playing to watch.
OOC: Remember only members sorted into Gryffindor and Slytherin Houses can post in this thread, it is not a chat thread and there is no rping.
Read the Gobstones Rule book before playing and if you did last term, please check again for potential updates and changes.
Any question please contact Nordic Witch and/or hpluvr037.

Mr Kitridge walked in with his hands stuck in his coat pockets against the cold autumn morning air, the Arithmancy Professor had graciously set up the hall for the second match so Leo could focus on lighting the fireplaces and getting warmed up. On the way down from the castle he had seen the growing golden leaf piles under the trees.
As the teams assembled he put his wand to his mouth to enhance his whistle to get the players attention. "Good morning and welcome to the Gobstones club, today's our second game of the season, I hope you're all as excited and geared up as I am." Not waiting for any responses Leo quickly signalled for the teams to choose their representatives for the first shot of the game.
"Let's begin!"

The first roll of the match for the lion side was taken by first year Ava Burton, while another first year, Oliver Tate Thomas-Borzekowski, took Slytherin's turn. It was good to see new players! "Well done, you two!" she said encouragingly after they both took their turns. The red stone had landed closer, but neither marble had run into an obstacle, which was impressive.

Ava and Oliver remained for another attempt with the shooters. The two first years swung their shooters again and watched their stones roll down the court. The red stone picked up pace as it rounded a series of obstacles before it stopped. In expectation everyone waited for the gob that did not come. The green stone surpassed its opponent and two more obstacles for the points.
"2 points to Slytherin!" Leo announced from the sideline.

Oliver and Ava remained on the court for their respective houses. Oliver seemed to have picked up some sort of luck with his third try with the shooter. He was getting her house's stone closer and closer to the Gryffindor's stone, and the goal in extension. "3 points to Slytherin at the end of the first round. Slytherin leads 5-1 as we head into the second round!" Leo declared.

After a short break Ava returned for the lions while the snakes sent in Cilla Ashcroft. The two girls swung their shooters and kicked at their stones. The green stone only managed to round one obstacle before it abruptly stopped and sprayed up a gush of gob at headed straight for the viewing area. The red stone surpassed its opponent and a series of obstacles before it stopped for the points.

Oliver switched with Cilla for the snakes while Ava remained for the lions. The two swung their shooters and kicked their stones forward. The stones had rolled far before they collided with each other so hard that the whole arena was covered in a cloud of dust. Fortunatley no gob was released.
Advisor note: No points was awarded since neither house gave a correct answer.

The Head Boy was back in action for the lion side, while Oliver Thomas-Borzekowski took the Slytherins' turn. Each marble made its way around an obstacle, curving in at the last second. But the red stone inched forward just a bit more, landing closer to the target. "Point to Gryffindor!"
