Pottermore

[rikustark]

I don't know where I heard it, but someone suggested it might be Hogsmeade!

[lucyolsen]

I don't think it would be Hogsmeade, since that is in Scotland, and Diagon Alley is in London.

[rikustark]

The common room and the great hall are both in Scotland as well, you know.

[lucyolsen]

So, I haven't quite played around enough to know what I'm talking about.

[Trilonias]

Hmm, if I were a betting man... I'd go with Hogsmeade. All other places don't exactly jive with the way they seem to have the links set up...

Also, does anyone know which chapter one can find Hengrist of Woodcroft card in? It's the only card I'm missing... I'm not above asking for help!

[Miss Wings]

it's not what I thought it would be. I signed up, got a name and house and then attempted the tasks. Gave up on Potions and occasionally still duel. Added a friend, dueled them and lost and then started to follow his stories on ff.net.. Mr Point Given

That one is in Chapter 10, moment 3 near the jack-o-lantern.

Whoo! Thanks! That's all the cards then! Also, interesting that most people have Sycamore for their wands. I do not, but a good majority do! Huzzah for random trivia given by the site.

All that's left for me to do is duel and make potions. Both are actually fun to me, but... I want more to do! XD;; Fun to throw away a bit of time though.

[dracosfairmaiden]

I love Pottermore, but until COS is opened, I haven't done much. I suck at potion making. I never know how to control the temperature. It's either too hot or too cold.

Can't wait until COS is out though!

[Serena R. Snape]

I just turn of the heat and turn it on again to let it stay in the correct position.

I'm waiting for CoS too, and am not very active on there at the moment.

First time I tried I was stuck in Diagon Alley before I gave up. That was months ago, I think, and I haven't gone back since. Never even got my wand...

WHAT!?! But that was the best part! I remember getting stuck there too, I think. I think it was because I couldn't figure out how to zoom or something.

I got stuck there too the first time; it just wouldn't zoom no matter how much I double clicked. Then I was stuck for days at Gringotts because dragging the key into the lock would not work. It's got a long way to go with all the bugs....

BTW, what was everyone's results?

Wand: Alder, Dragon core, 12 3/4 inches, hard
House: Hatstall - Ravenclaw/Slytherin - chose Slytherin

I'm quite pleased with my results; Alder is suitable for nonverbal magic and the most advanced witches and wizards, while the Dragon core is powerful. And I am quite stubborn at times, so having a less flexible wand is fine.

[Serena R. Snape]

My wand is Beech, 11 inches, Phoenix Feather, and Quite Bendy
And I was sorted into Slytherin immediately.

I'm also very pleased with my results. Here's all the information I could find on my wand:

Beech

The true match for a beech wand will be, if young, wise beyond his or her years, and if full-grown, rich in understanding and experience. Beech wands perform very weakly for the narrow-minded and intolerant. Such wizards and witches, having obtained a beech wand without having been suitably matched (yet coveting this most desirable, richly hued and highly prized wand wood), have often presented themselves at the homes of learned wandmakers such as myself, demanding to know the reason for their handsome wand’s lack of power. When properly matched, the beech wand is capable of a subtlety and artistry rarely seen in any other wood, hence its lustrous reputation.

Phoenix

This is the rarest core type. Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike.

Phoenix feather wands are always the pickiest when it comes to potential owners, for the creature from which they are taken is one of the most independent and detached in the world. These wands are the hardest to tame and to personalise, and their allegiance is usually hard won.

[Silvertongue]

My wand is Sycamore, 12 1/2 inches, Dragon Heartstring, Brittle. My other wand is Elm, 10 3/4 inches, Unicorn Hair, Hard.

I was sorted into Slytherin straight away. I created another account recently to see if I had changed at all in a year but nope, still straight into Slytherin! =D

[biakit]

My wand is Ash, 12 1/2 inches, Dragon Heartstring, Hard and my other wand is Ash, 10 3/4 inches, Phoenix Feather, Hard.
I was sorted in Slytherin and Ravenclaw.

[ShotgunWilly]

Mine's Hazel, 12 inches with a Dragon Heartstring core, reasonably supple

Like I said earlier, I was a hatstall who was given the choice between Hufflepuff and Slytherin, I chose the latter.

[Animikokala]

Interesting to note that everyone has different wand woods so far.

[dracosfairmaiden]

Mine's 14 and a half inches. Rowan wood,unicorn core and slightly wielding. I'm in Ravenclaw.

[rikustark]

My wand: Apple, 12 1/2 in., dragon core, pliant. House: Gryffindor!

That IS interesting, and I even have 2.

[Trilonias]

Time to change that!

Wand: Alder, Unicorn core, 10 in., slightly springy.

I am in Slytherin. I wasn't quick, but I wasn't a hatstall either.

[Sailorgreeny]

Wand: Dogwood, Unicorn hair, 13 3/4 inches, Surprisingly Swishy.
House: Slytherin.

I thought I would be Hufflepuff since most of the tests I've taken before put me there. Did it tell you what the other choice is if you are given one? I don't remember seeing one.

[Dimcairien]

I'm actually one of those people who made two accounts. And two more woods.

Maple, Unicorn core, 10", quite flexible. House: Hufflepuff

Cherry, Unicorn, 10" quite flexible. House: Ravenclaw

Yes. If you hatstall, you are given the choice between the Houses you best fit in. Example: for me, there was an extra question at the end that had a Ravenclaw card and a Slytherin one, and told me to choose which House I wanted.

[dancersofthenight]

My wand is Cypress, Unicorn core, 12 1/4 in, and Slightly Springy.

And I was sorted into Ravenclaw.

[rikustark]

I kind of want to make another account, only to see what would change on my wand if I would of picked a different item for that last question. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing if I get the same house.

[mountaingirl777]

Laurel, Dragon core, 12 1/2 inches. I'm in Gryffindor.

[Miss Wings]

House cup awarded in 1-2 days

[Miss Wings]

Ok so Slytherin won which could have happened to Griffindor aswell, I'm sure of it. It was an extremely close tie.

[rikustark]

It was close, I just want CoS now!

House: Ravenclaw.

Just thought it was cool that we have the same wand wood.
