You guys are so funny!
I feel like you're always matching each other! xd Ah well... anyways... on to the good stuff...
The results for Series 5 are as follows...
-65pts from Peru
-65pts from Ireland
These points will be removed from the total keepers score.
And now onto what I believe is our last series! crying It saddens me greatly, but at the same time, it's probably for the best because as far as thinking up trivia, I'm just about tapped out!

Alrighty, here it is! Series 6! I'm a little out of sorts right now, so I apologize if they're a little... odd. Hopefully you'll find some of them as fun as I do. Good Luck my Keepers! xd
*Series 6*
For this series you will be allowed to use the Books ONLY for ONE question of your choice. You must however tell me the page number where you found the answer and what version of the books you used (i.e. US paperback release, UK hardback, etc)
All "Reasoning" Questions will be marked with a "*"
Series 6 1. What other biography has Rita Skeeter written besides The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore?
2. For which class was Harry reading Quintescense: A Quest?
3. How long were Lily and James in a relationship? (that is, from dating to their tragic, untimely deaths)
4. What went wrong during Ron's Divination O.W.L.?
5. How old was Severus Snape when he was murdered?
(JK Rowling has disclosed Snape's birthday (as in month and day) and since I don't want to give it to you willy-nilly, I made up a little riddle of sorts. Keep in mind that the riddle's answer will help you to get the right answer to the question, it is not the answer itself.)
First the month,
Into the bitter cold, young Severus Snape was born,
Cradled in the Cypress boughs, with a stoneclad will of constancy.
Next the number of the day,
Dawn of night, and night of dawn.
Where Spine of Lionfish and Porcupine Quills share a passing sound,
Now think, Eddie Charmicael earned just how many Outstanding O.W.L.s?
You will have until next Wednesday(8/17) to send these answers to me! It's okay to guess because I don't expect you to get all of the questions right! But remember, that you are duty-bound to do your Country justice, or, to put it more colloquially...
Make your Mamma Land Proud!

So I just did an unofficial tally of the score, according to what everyone has up... and I thought you guys might like to see... maybe give you guys a boost in urgency to do well...
245 | 230
So there you have it, remember it's unofficial... possibly one of the refs haven't updated their scores or what-have-you but... that's what it is with what is up right now....
Now come on! And FIGHT FOR THAT WIN!

Alright, so I'm torn, because I still haven't received answers from one person, who is likely to have some extenuating circumstances which they told me about. But I said no exceptions on lateness, and it wouldn't be fair to go back on that... but it turns out, they haven't logged on since I said that, so I feel a little cruel holding them to a condition which they were not privy to at the time... anyways... I hope you will all bear with me, I think I will wait just a little longer until posting the answers. Think of it as my Hufflepuff-ness getting the better of me. sweatdrop

I'm really sorry that I haven't posted anything until like but with the college work and my tonsil surgery that I've been trying to get over is piling up and I just never really got around to it. I didn't mean to make you guys wait so long. sweatdrop
