Welcome to Hogwarts! House Point Update and Answers To Some Of Your Questions

[hd-writers-mod.livejournal.com]

Message from the Headmistress!

I have been answering questions all morning (very good questions, I might add) so I thought it would be easier to post the answers to some FAQ's:

1. Can we use more than one prompt in a fiction or art? Yes you can! But remember to have the word count equal to or greater than the lowest word count of both prompts. So if you want to use 4 prompts, as long as your work is 400 or more then you’re in the clear. Remember Snape loves to give detention!
Icons are harder because of the space and the fact you would have to do 2 or more with the same prompts in them.

2. Can the WIP be a non-Harry Potter fic? Yes it can be and you can mix this with the Word War or the 3k or more words assignment too.

3. Does the WIP have to be a chaptered fic? No any WIP that was a WIP before the 1st can count. That goes for unfinished art as well. Some people offered to create screen shots so we know, and that is a great idea but if you can't it is not a requirement. The House Ghosts are watching you anyway. Also if it is a fest and not posted, let us know the fest and as much information you can provide. If nothing else to rush to your work and give it all the praise it needs.

4. Can we have a list of communities that we can prompt at? Yes you can, I'll get a list up, but any HP community will work, spread the love of Harry Potter writing and art!

Also the math on #25 is fixed sorry it's 10 icons needed.

House Totals for Day 1!
These totals were up unto 9am PST I'll have day 2 up faster long meeting with the Board of Governors prevented me from doing it sooner


·         In 4th place with 0 points is Slytherin! Come on snakes it's time to wake up, put in your hair gel and get to work!
·         In 3rd place with 20 points is HufflePuff! - Good job Puffs!
·         In 2nd place with 30 points is Ravenclaw! - Some great stories from Ravenclaw!
·         In 1st place with 65 point is Gryffindor! Wow Lions, you’re wasting no time at all. In fact this House was brave enough to grab the first bonus 3 mins into the term!


Remember this can change at any time, so keep working! Any if you have any more questions please ask them here on this post, and the Mods will be happy to try and answer. And lastly, you can keep an eye on your points on the spreadsheet link in your common room and click on your house. The post is locked so others cannot tamper with it.


Have fun my students!

Thanks for the awesome planning and the fun this is!

I have a question for the mods: What is the art equivalent of "Assignment #8 (Writing or Art): Write 3k in a week (could be over multiple stories)"?
