That is unless the culprit is one of our house members!! Just now thought of that possibility! Hmmmm I think I am off to sleep, need to ponder a wee bit more on the first clue. Goodnight Ari.

Oh Ari, you are so silly. It was just a thought I had I honestly don't know for sure. Have a goodnight, I am totally knackered. Need to call George before I drift off. *yawn* I am so sleepy. See you tomorrow.

GeorgesPrincess I have pm'd Icee with my responses to both of those questions.
However I did want to ask you one more if I may. I know this may sound silly especially since we are Ravenclaw house, but how many classes do we need to take this term? I mean do the 1st years have a choice or is there a standard requirement for classes?
there is no requirement class-wise. In fact I don't think I have ever taken any within the guild. I'm too busy in RL. I just run the Dueling Club, and occasionally participate in the events.
Bye Uchiha!

I don't think there would be a problem with brainstorming, but then I'm also not entirely sure. We probably shouldn't sit here and say 'OOH! I know the answer! I got it right! It's ___!'
If you get the right answer, you can give hints to the brainstorming, but not give it away. Or just totally abstain from the brainstorming. I just don't want us winning points (from now on through the end of the event) by sharing answers.
Princess: No requirements to the number of classes you take. Just sign up for the ones that catch your interest.
And the Eyebrow/I bow theory sounds interesting. Probably not quite correct, but interesting nonetheless.

Bye Ari!!
I only signed up for two of the classes. I don't think I'm going to take any more than that because I'm quite busy in RL. I don't know...I might take one more if I like the sound of it, but maybe not....

Ooh! We got two more hints for the Yultide Mystery.Quote:
Hint 3:
This one is really a fill in the blank, but in riddle form.
To find that hidden treasure chest,
you must take the first step in a perpetual [blank].
Hint 4:
Since my riddles are adored so much here's another!
Above the place where you needle the thread

Hint 3
I assumed that it had to rhyme and found all rhymes for 'chest':
best, blessed, blest, breast, crest, dressed, fest, guessed, guest, jest, lest, messed, nest, pest, pressed, quest, rest, stressed, test, vest, west, wrest, zest
abreast, addressed, arrest, assessed, attest, behest, bequest, compressed, confessed, congest, contest, depressed, detest, digest, distressed, divest, expressed, impressed, infest, ingest, invest, midwest, molest, northwest, obsessed, oppressed, possessed, professed, progressed, protest, recessed, repressed, request, southwest, suggest, suppressed, undressed, unrest
Hint 4
She's playing with our brains again.
Needle the thread. That's thread the needle reversed. Not sure if that's got anything to do with the cost of tea in China, though.

Above the place where you needle the thread.
So... Above the place where you thread the needle.
Hold on...in a needle what is the hole called where the thread goes through?

The eye of a needle. But that won't be it; she reversed the words 'needle' and 'thread' on purpose. I doubt it has anything to do with the eye of the needle, because you aren't threading the needle, you're needling the thread.
Which I still don't really understand.

Very good with the rhyming Alutian--Did everyone get the answer to hint #3? Still working on hint #4.
From myself, Ravenclaw has gotten a total of 2 points for the yuletide mystery--that we need to add to whomever else received points for the correct answers as well.
