The Quidditch Pitch has been officially opened so the players can subscribe to it. Spots looks over the two rosters and then addresses both Captains, "great these list are final, from this point until the end of the match each of you are only allowed 5 substitutions. The substitutions MUST be approved by either myself or other Quidditch Official (Headmaster Hendrik has expressed an interest in assisting) before that player may answer a question. Also, I will expect you to inform your players NOT to try and answer a question that is not poised for their position. Out of position answers (such as a beater answering a snitch question) will result in a penalty shot and 25 points being awarded to the opposing team.
I will be using the following symbols for the types of questions being asked"

Snitch question: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5...1/snitch3a.bmp

"As I have stated before, expect the match to extend from Saturday into next week, I will try to check up on answers in a timely manner to keep the game going but just because I am online doesn't mean that there will be questions. You will also notice that I have started the thread for the first match, this is only so players and coaches can subscribe to it so they'll be notified of posts. Please inform your players about the thread location so they can include it on their subscription list. I will also be opening the Stands soon so that other students can begin arriving, taking their seats and begin cheering on their teams. Please help me in moderating the stands, remember if either side gets too unsportsmanlike there will be penalties. Good luck and as always, if you have questions, post them here or send me an owl".....Spots :ballcap:
Please read the above material carefully, so you understand all the rules. As stated Professor Hendrik may also act as a referee during the match. Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday.

lol. same. i'd thought people would say something like, "no worries. you'll do fine." yea, easy for them to say. lol. phew...

Well, your right you shouldn't be worrying. As captain it's my job to worry for the whole team. Hee! Hee! I'm sure everything will be fine once we get on our broom and take the first lap around the field.

i hope so ^^. getting butterflies. yummyumm lol.
but i think we need similar uniforms. to show unity or something :P

Good idea, I'm putting you in charge of that. Let me know what you come up with.

bleh :P

i cant think or rather find any at the moment, but...i think bethzc's siggie looks nice. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...eker/cp8o7.png what do u think? i'll ask her permission of course.

how about this one? --> http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...quidditch1.jpg

the match has started!!! first question to Hufflepuff:

Quaffle question to Hufflepuff:
What player scores first in the Quidditch World Cup the year Harry attends with the Weasleys?

Troy from Ireland Team scored first 10:0 to Bulgarians

The first Chaser Question has been asked for Hufflepuff. Spot says he the game will resume tonight.


Quaffle question to Hufflepuff:

What player scores first in the Quidditch World Cup the year Harry attends with the Weasleys?


ooc: well this question has been up for almost three hours, I have to go for now but stay tuned, I will be back tonight......:ballcap:

i answered it for out Chasers..um what i mean is i posted the answer here, because... um
a) i got scared.
b) im here
c) still scared
d) i wanted to help
e) scared1!

I like the second one. I wonder if we could incorporate it with the blinking letter in the following signature and make a unique signature for the team.

i have no idea how to do that, sorry, but at least i helped :P

where is our team!! im getting butterflies just because they're not on!!!

You did the right thing posting the question here. As a beater you are not suppose to answer chaser questions. Even if I substituted you with a chaser, we would have to wait for Spot to return tonight and approve the substitution. By then a chaser could have answered the question, and since we have only 5 substitutions, we'd better use them wisely. Gill Boo makes the signitures with the blinking letters. The one I posted is one she's already done. I have put in a request with her to design a signiture using the Quidditch picture you found and adding Hufflepuff Quidditch Team. I will post it here when she has it ready. Thank you for all your help.

I just wish you guys all the best of luck! You will do great! I am reading through the thread and I am still lost on whats with the graphics, I do not mean for that to sound harsh I merely meant there cool, just wondering what there for... like signatures? I think it's a great idea, if they are... just wondering ;) Good luck huffies, and don't worry mrs. weasley, you will do a great job.

EDIT: haha I know what the graphics are for now *pokes self* anyways I think its great your adding some house spirit to your sigs... I was thinking of opening another huffs graphic thread in the CR anyways like we did last year for HIT...

you're welcome Mrs Weasley :P

and i think its a good idea to open that graphic thread. though i dont remember that last term...

If any of yall know the answer please tell me I have narrowed it dowon to these three ppl

Mullet
Troy
Moran

They are the chasers for the Ireland team

the answer is Troy. i checked.
Troy dropped the quaffle to Moran. a bludger hit Moran causing him to drop the quaffle and then Troy caught it back and scores.

heres a snippet from the book. im going to delete this post after you tell me you've read it.

Quote:

PORSKOFF PLOY flashed up next, as Troy made as though to dart upward with the Quaffle, drawing away the Bulgarian Chaser Ivanova and dropping the Quaffle to Moran. One of the Bulgarian Beaters, Volkov, swung hard at a passing Bludger with his small club, knocking it into Moran's path; Moran ducked to avoid the Bludger and dropped the Quaffle; and Levski, soaring beneath, caught it - "TROY SCORES!"

Thanks

For some reason today is the day I can't seem to find my hp books any of them. :dizzy:

lol. its ok. i would go frantic if i were you, but its ok, i'll help the best i can ^^

Great job, ~*Keni's Girl*~!!! Of course we have to wait for Spot to make it official, but it looks like we've made the first score of the match. Go Hufflepuff!!!!

^^ yeay!!!

Quaffle question to Slytherin:
