Course, that also eliminates "I needed to use the bathroom" as an excuse for wandering around after curfew.
That depends on what your fellow housemates had for supper!
I am currently at a Hogwarts craft fair!
Hey, question about being in different Houses. As different Houses have classes at different times, how will we role play through those classes? Would it be better if we're all in the same House? I don't mind choosing one single House or just rolling for it, for the good of the game.
Otherwise we'd have to rp scenes outside of classes...or with certain people left out...and that doesn't seem as favorable, does it?
ALSO I WENT TO A HOGWARTS CRAFT FAIRRRRR
I get your concern but I think that if we all end up as one House we are going to be missing that sweet sweet inter party drama we would have when 3 or 4 Gryffindor and 3 or 4 Slytherin are amicable, if not downright friendly. And the lessons won't be huge role playing points I imagine. Mayne one or two posts a piece?
Not to mention the Hufflepuff that brings them together! And provides snacks! ^_^
The classes will be broken up but they will be hidden in spoilers or in area dividers. This will allow some to help with other classes or give warnings to other classes is something hard is coming up. I plan to make it not linger on scenes that not everyone is in, but as you have the majority of your classes with one group or the other I think it will be alright. And yes, huge rp points. Huge.
Also I hope you had fun... AND I'M SO JELLY!
Also let me know when you all start heading up
You could probably just move us along to the school. I think we've all disembarked from the boats.
Happy 4th to those in the USA!
My hope is to move along to the sorting ceremony when I get home before I head out for the cookout and fireworks.
The sorting ceremony is moving a lot faster than I expected. I am pleased!
I am too, but I am noticing a lot of male students as compared to female students.
Also, by my count, we're up to 6 boys in Gryffindor this year - 7 if Aeron is a boy (the spelling could go either way).

Cameron, Colleen, Siobhan, Leslie, Eres, Bryn, Samantha, Jennifer, Ava, and Olivia are all the NPC females while the rest are males. I needed enough males to fill your all's dormrooms are they are 5 to a room. Since both the female characters are in Slytherin I needed less.
Originally I got the last name written down then just rolled a d% to see if it was male or female. I ended up with a higher ratio of boys than girls. Then I applies the dorm room factor and saw that it needed minimal changing so kept it. In total there are 35 students in this first year class. Which is about right given that Harry's class was only 40. So in total with PCs there are 12 female students to the 23 male students. This of course isn't the same for the whole school. Some years have more females than males. The second year list I've started, still doing the d% part on it, has a total of 30 students and I'm about halfway through with a majority of them being female. So far it is a 2-1 ratio there... but as I said I'm not don't and that could change.
Well, this will be interesting come the Yule Ball.
I thought the Yule Ball only happened turned the Tri Wizard Tournament?
Drat. I forgot that they didn't do that. Still I expect that there will be some social function with lots of unattached guys standing around.
We have the '84 Prefects thanks to some video game... :D This is the Court pre-Prefect H.B. met. If we wish to stick to canon.

Can we get a google doc of our classmates and schedules in the game description. That would help a lot when we get going.
They are still a bit of a work in progress but here is what I have! Color coated even!

Slytherin
Hufflepuff
I'm going to go another day before posting to let the last two get something up!
I'm out from Thursday to Sunday, so bot H.B. or just have him get into trouble! :D
Hey all. Everyone doing okay? We good still?
Huh... strang... the gameplay tab stopped updating for me... Oh well, happened to me before give me a moment and I'll get us up and running again!
I hate when that happens. It's happened to me before, too.
The only thing that is worst is when a post gets eaten.
Any more table chat? I'm ready for a new scene, meself! :)
I'm going to give Vincent and Dragoslav another day to post then move us along when I get home tomorrow.

Apologies, I am in the middle of a move, so I will be a couple of days before I'm able to post again. Again, apologies for the short notice. We closed on our house three weeks early.
I'll be out this weekend in the woods, Friday - Sunday. Maybe Paizo's forums will work by then? :P
So welcome back Izzy! I hope you enjoyed your trip!
Because of the fact the servers where up and down I'll give Dragoslav one more day before moving us along!
I'm out again, from Thursday to Sunday, in the woods (like a badger)
Have fun! ... Wish I could to camping.
Sound off, who is still here and can post?
I am still here and can finally get to the website again! I've been getting the Ysoki mechanic for the past couple days.
Everyone has. They where having a huge posting problem so they took the site down.
Huh, it came back yesterday, eh? Here I am!
And then it went down again.
It looks like I can post again!
Okay so I left my list of room assignments at home. Ao once I get home from will, if the site still holds, I will speed us along!
I'm back guys. Sorry when the site went down I ended up going on holiday but im here now. Ill post later when I have time.
So apparently the Hufflepuff Common Room hasn't been infiltrated for a thousand years. Huh.

I will be out of the country starting tomorrow evening. I will have my phone and access to Wi-Fi, but I don't know if I'll be able to post. Please bot me if necessary.
The travel will actually be to Scotland and then Ireland, so I'll hopefully come back with lots of good inspiration for this game.
I hope you enjoy yourself!!!
I'll be moving us along tonight when I get home.
And now I'll be in the woods from Thursday to Sunday, with no signal! H.B. will banter and be ready for the next day soon enough!
Okay I sent a poke PM to a couple of players. I'll give them some time to respond. The paizo tumble plus pacing might not have done the best for us.
But, in the meantime I can ask how people would like to proceed if those I PMed have dropped out?

I'm back from vacation! It was a great time - our Harry Potter Walking Tour in Edinburgh allowed us to see a lot of the inspiration J.K. Rowling drew on for the series. Plus, we got to drive by some of the filming locations they used in Glencoe for Hogwarts.
If they've dropped out, someone will need to take over their respective years - if we're short 7 people, we can either consider re-recruitment, or we can just have some people double up.
