How to Play! Chasers are the smartest, greatest, most awesome people on the Quidditch team!
Because of your awesomeness you're going to have to answer some trivia questions!
Simple no?
I will post a series of questions in the Current Questions post each week.
Each Chaser will get to send ONE PM to me each week with the answers to the questions.
The questions will be Harry Potter related. They're not going to be your average Dueling Club questions either!
Every correct Response will earn you ten points for your team!
Since you're awesome Chasers, if you get an answer wrong, you won't be penalized! | Welcome | How to Play | Rules | Current Questions | Chasers' Scoreboard | Previous Trivia Questions | World Cup Scoreboard | Hall of Fame |

Rules! You guys are going to be wonderful. However, I must enforce some rules and regulations:
If you're not a Chaser, you can still post here. However, I encourage you to do most of your chatting in the Stands
Never ever post a Trivia answer in this thread (or anywhere else). Answers should always be PMed to me
When sending trivia answers to me, please make sure the subject has your Team's Name AND the Series Number. The Series Number will be posted in the Current Question section of this thread.
Chasers are only allowed to send me ONE PM per Series. Multiple PMs (in a series) will cost your team points, even if the answers are correct!
If you have a question about how this game will work or anything else, ASK IT. I prefer you to post your questions here, but if you want to PM me...go ahead.
Take the time out and sign some autographs with your fans. The Stands is the event's main hangout thread. Participation is key to win the House Cup! | Welcome | How to Play | Rules | Current Question | Chasers' Scoreboard | Previous Trivia Questions | World Cup Scoreboard | Hall of Fame |

Also, don't forget to put a subject for the PM! | Welcome | How to Play | Rules | Current Question | Chasers' Scoreboard | Previous Trivia Questions | World Cup Scoreboard | Hall of Fame |

Question:
How long do we have for each set of questions/trivia?
It sounds like it's either one week or until the end of the week (not sure), but what if you post questions twice that week?
