[15:16] <Poet> While its easy to drift off in various directions, let's all try to have a fun chat by sticking to the topic for today. OK, moving on to the topic for the chat! [15:16] <magicmeg8> Today's chat is about Pottercast 54: Sueless Show. We had some news, dominated mostly by the HP video game element. In the Fan Corner, there was an interview with Petra, a Philosopher's/Sorcerer's Stone Reading group member. Then the show moved onto Canon Conundrums, which focused on the importance of wands in respect to Book 7. [15:17] <magicmeg8> Lastly, this week's Extendable Ears was an interview with Danny Bilson, who worked on the original HP video games. [15:18] <danae24> It was a really gamey Pottercast this one............. a lot of the video game...... [15:18] <Siobhan4hp> I like the games though,m I have PS, COS and GOF [15:18] <magicmeg8> Melissa does the news this week. Did she do a good job? Did you miss Sue? [15:18] <dramione> i'm actually listening to it right now [15:18] <Sofie> i missed sue [15:18] <dramione> i'm at the fan interview part [15:18] <futureweasley> Light news week! LOL [15:18] <stewiegryf> of course we missed sue! [15:18] <dramione> haha [15:18] <dramione> yeah [15:18] <gryffindelle> I missed sue [15:18] <SoonerGryffindor> not that Melissa did a bad job, but it just seemed weird not to have Sue do it [15:18] <mrh216> I love Melissa but I missed Sue! [15:18] <Sofie> but im sure she was having fun with the yummy man smile [15:18] <Siobhan4hp> I miss Sue, not anything against MEllissa, It's just not the same [15:18] <fawkes28> i missed sue [15:19] <futureweasley> that's the only time Melissa will even consider reading the news [15:19] <danae24> I did like Melissa doing the news, but nothing like having Squeeing Sue doing the news....... [15:19] * yellowpepper2311 off to search some food in the fride *will be back soon* [15:19] <magicmeg8> I missed Sue, too. but i thought melissa did a good segment smile [15:19] * Siobhan4hp is having typing dificulties [15:19] <SoonerGryffindor> Melissa did a great job [15:19] <dramione> i didn't get the set visit tho' [15:19] <mrh216> Melissa still did a good job though [15:19] <magicmeg8> Alan Rickman was interviewed by BBC America for his new film Snow Cake. He has read the HP books, and is a bit tight lipped about Snape’s loyalties. Apparently, Rickman knows Snape’s true loyalties along with JKR, but he’s not blabbing. What do you think about this? [15:19] <dramione> will there be a leakymug podcast there? [15:19] <futureweasley> yes, being a journalist and all, it's kind of in her "threads" to "do news" well [15:19] * harryfreak359 thinks that she should listen to pottercast...as this all going over her head [15:19] <Sofie> i loved how they got off topic with john after like 1 minute biggrin [15:19] <SoonerGryffindor> I think its great that he knows [15:20] <SoonerGryffindor> so he will know exactly how to play Snape [15:20] <fawkes28> i think it's important for him to know as an actor [15:20] <dramione> yeah [15:20] <mrh216> I'm glad he knows [15:20] <dramione> i think it's great that he's not babbling [15:20] <Poet> I actually really like the news part of the show. It reminds me most of a prime-time radio or tv show. [15:20] *** harryfreak359 has quit [Bye] [15:20] * Sofie loves Alan Rickman [15:20] <Lizzieangel90> i think it is good from Rickman to know snape's loyalties [15:20] <gryffindelle> It's great he knows [15:20] <magicmeg8> Well, I think he'd get in a lot of trouble for blabbing [15:20] <SoonerGryffindor> I also think that it is great when one of the adult actors really cares enough bout it to read and know [15:20] <magicmeg8> I agree, Sooner. [15:20] <fawkes28> i am also glad he read the books [15:20] <mrh216> exactly [15:20] <Sofie> yep, im glad he bothered read the books [15:20] <danae24> Yes, now we have to see how he acts in the following movies.... to see if we catch something..... [15:20] <Lizzieangel90> that way he can actually portray the character "correctly" [15:20] <fawkes28> probablly not like us though smile [15:20] <gryffindelle> I'm happy he's not blabbing because: 1, he would get fired, and 2, it would ruin the surprise [15:20] <dramione> yeah [15:21] <Siobhan4hp> There wasn't much news anyway so it didn't really matter [15:21] <Lizzieangel90> good points gryffinadelle [15:21] <dramione> def! [15:21] <dramione> it should be kept a suprise [15:21] <mrh216> i love surprises [15:21] <gryffindelle> yeah [15:21] <danae24> And I like that he knows what is the deal with Snape, and not like Michael Gambon, who made Dumbledore his way, and not quit Jo's way...... [15:21] <Sofie> so its only him and Jo who know the truth about Snape [15:21] <magicmeg8> I'm just glad that Rickman has the responsibility of Snape's character. [15:21] <danae24> sorry......... mean to say quite, not quit..... [15:21] <fawkes28> it's better he avoids talking about HP in interviews [15:22] <mrh216> i can't think of anyone better quLIFIED FOR THAT [15:22] <futureweasley> I think it's really cool that Jo told him before he even filmed PS/SS [15:22] <futureweasley> it would almost be necessary to know if you were playing Snape, don't you think? [15:22] <futureweasley> I don't want anyone to ruin my surprise [15:22] *** futureweasley has quit [Bye] [15:22] *** futureweasley has joined #lounge [15:22] <danae24> yes!!! I agree future [15:22] <mrh216> sorry, stupid caps lock [15:22] <Sofie> after the 7th book we should all watch the moviea an analyze his acting lol [15:22] <magicmeg8> The number of OWLs awarded to Hermione in the British version of HBP was incorrect, but was corrected ages ago according to Bloomsbury. Do these type of errors make any difference to you? [15:22] <SoonerGryffindor> not so much on stff like that [15:22] <mrh216> not really [15:22] <Sofie> i didnt even notice the mistake [15:23] <fawkes28> nah, it didnt bother me [15:23] <SoonerGryffindor> but the error with James and Lily coming out of LV's wand-- that kind of stuff bugs me [15:23] <dramione> yeah [15:23] <Aislinn> what did they have in Bloomsbury? [15:23] <Poet> Yes, to me they do because I guess I spend too much time at the Lexicon. [15:23] <magicmeg8> I don't think it's that important, but good to know if you want to keep the book as a collector's item [15:23] <fawkes28> oh yes [15:23] <Sofie> but i didnt notice the graveyard mistake in the gof movie either [15:23] <SoonerGryffindor> lol Poet [15:23] <gryffindelle> not really [15:23] <mrh216> i thought it was weird, but i always assumed there was an explanation [15:23] <Poet> 11 OWLs when she only sat for 10 [15:23] <SoonerGryffindor> I just assumed that she was taking a class that Harry was unaware that she was taking [15:23] <magicmeg8> haha, usually i think the same thing, mrh -- i rarely think things are an actual mistake biggrin [15:23] <mrh216> so did i [15:24] <Poet> Most people that noticed I think assumed it was an error. I didn't think she'd somehow sat an extra one. [15:24] <SoonerGryffindor> I think JKR actally could have gotten away with it smile [15:24] <futureweasley> no, I was more along the "who cares" mindtrack [15:24] *** futureweasley has quit [Bye] [15:24] <gryffindelle> its not that big a deal, otherwise jo would have noticed [15:24] <fawkes28> it's so hard not to make any mistakes [15:24] *** futureweasley has joined #lounge [15:24] <danae24> Sometimes.... when you know that said typo is going to affect future plot, then yes, but something like that.... i dont think so... [15:24] <stewiegryf> was it just in the british edition? [15:24] * stewiegryf is too lazy to go check his book [15:24] <Sofie> its not Hotttt cheryls fault then biggrin [15:24] <magicmeg8> i think so, stewie. [15:24] <Aislinn> I sort of thought Scholastic had that too [15:24] <magicmeg8> i think so, stewie. [15:24] <SoonerGryffindor> lol stewie [15:24] <gryffindelle> *and fixed it [15:24] <magicmeg8> hmm. i'm not sure. [15:24] <dramione> her getting 11 owls is going to affect future plot? [15:24] *** futureweasley has quit [Bye] [15:24] * Sofie has the bloomsbury edition... [15:24] <mrh216> i hope not [15:24] <SoonerGryffindor> no, it won't so its really not that important [15:24] <magicmeg8> i don't think so, dramione [15:25] <magicmeg8> Rupert Grint will be interviewed by BBC Radio 1 for his film Driving Lessons. You can submit questions through Leaky. What questions are you planning on submitting? [15:25] <Poet> Yes, I am pretty sure Scholastic had it as well. [15:25] <danae24> the american version also says 10 Outstandings and 1 Exceeds Expectations.... [15:25] <dramione> actually [15:25] *** futureweasley has joined #lounge [15:25] <dramione> i don't think ppl should send questions about harry potter [15:25] <mrh216> i have no idea [15:25] <danae24> I dont think so either..... [15:26] <gryffindelle> i don't think i'm going to [15:26] <magicmeg8> So, your questions would be more rupert-geared? [15:26] *** Siobhan4hp has quit [Bye] [15:26] <dramione> i mean,he's goint on the radio to talk about his new movie [15:26] <fawkes28> how about...how does it feel to play a different character? [15:26] <dramione> not about harry potter [15:26] <Poet> I would love to hear more about his future plans. Does he have any interest in directing or other parts of the film world? [15:26] <magicmeg8> good point, dramione. [15:26] *** Jrg1990 has joined #lounge [15:26] *** Jrg1990 has quit [Bye] [15:26] <futureweasley> I've heard that Rupert is rather good in this new movie [15:26] <Sofie> i bet 90% of the questions will be about HP [15:26] <mrh216> good question [15:26] *** Jrg1990 has joined #lounge [15:26] <magicmeg8> me, too, poet! yeah, i really like rupert, i think he's a great actor.

[15:27] <dramione> but they portray ron as you know,too scared [15:27] <dramione> so that's bad [15:27] <Jrg1990> Im gonna think of a few and send them in defo [15:27] *** Siobhan4hp has joined #lounge [15:27] <futureweasley> I'm looking forward to seeing Driving Lessons...because I am a Rupert fan. That doesn't have much to do with Ron other than the fact that I think Rupert portrays him will [15:27] <danae24> Yes, I totally want to see the movie..... at first I wasnt that excited about it, but after seeing the trailer, I liked the story.... [15:27] <x0ginnyW0x> They give all of Ron's brave lines to Hermione [15:27] <Sofie> im glad he is back for HBP [15:27] <mrh216> but that's more the screenwriter than rupert [15:27] <magicmeg8> i think it depends on the director. i think i'll send some questions in, though [15:27] <Poet> It's great to see Rupert and Dan in other films while Harry Potter is going on. I think it helps them transition to other roles better. [15:27] <danae24> Not seeing it just because Rupert is on it....

[15:44] <x0ginnyW0x> he probably will be [15:44] <ridikulusdragon> I couldn't believe that the song wasn't in there [15:44] <ridikulusdragon> I'm a bit heartbroken [15:44] <futureweasley> I think Weasley is our King is so important to understanding Ron's character development [15:44] <gingin77> Weasley is our King could totaly be in the movie... as like a taunt [15:44] <Poet> Sort of hard to put something that is strongly dialogue-based in a video game (such as a song) [15:44] <Sofie> i bet he is but i dont care [15:45] <ridikulusdragon> I agree FW [15:45] <futureweasley> it broke my heart when I read it, and I think it's vital [15:45] <fawkes28> i know sad [15:45] <ridikulusdragon> maybe it will be in a deleted scene? *fingers crossed* [15:45] <mrh216> me too [15:45] <SoonerGryffindor> I want to see Snape;s grey underwear laugh [15:45] <dramione> yeah!

[15:45] <adamgryff> lol [15:45] <mrh216> i'm all for deleted scenes [15:45] <x0ginnyW0x> hehe [15:45] <ridikulusdragon> apparently sooner does [15:45] <gingin77> Hey guys they could make it worse trust me [15:45] <Sofie> but thy should have included that. but seems like there will be no quiddich at all sad [15:45] <Siobhan4hp> me too [15:45] * futureweasley looks at SoonerGryffindor and is very worried [15:45] <x0ginnyW0x> I'm for extended versions! [15:45] <gingin77> grey is better than what some other people have been saying [15:46] <Poet> Actually we are discussing the video game, not the film so deleted scenes don't apply [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> it's not like it's grown up snape's underwear, it's his younger self [15:46] <mrh216> that's true [15:46] * Sofie is slow [15:46] <gryffindelle> play the marauders [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> so we won't be seeing nasty grown up snape underthings [15:46] <x0ginnyW0x> stilllll [15:46] <futureweasley> well, it will be the "young Snape"... [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> yes [15:46] <futureweasley> it might not be THAT ba [15:46] <futureweasley> d [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> exactly [15:46] <Sofie> remember guys, its pg13 [15:46] <gingin77> which could be even worse than the adult version ridikulus [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> lol [15:46] <mrh216> he he [15:46] <Poet> So you're hoping we'll see the flashbacks in the video game? [15:46] <ridikulusdragon> maybe who knows [15:46] <Siobhan4hp> Sofie: They cut anything that involves Ron looking good, he has to look like a fraid cat, moronic idiot the whole time, didn;t you knwo? [15:46] <x0ginnyW0x> He's 15 going on 16 [15:46] <Expelliarmas> gotta go guys, see you later [15:47] <magicmeg8> John and Melissa will be heading to the movie set soon. John thinks that it would pretty important if he comes across a CAPSLOCK!Michael Gambon/Dumbledore scene, to redirect Gambon. OK, he probably wouldn't because he knows he'd get escorted out of the building. Do you think YOU'D say something? [15:47] <fawkes28> bye expel [15:47] <gryffindelle> bye expel [15:47] <gingin77> i would [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> YESSS!@ [15:47] <ridikulusdragon> i would like to [15:47] <Jrg1990> YEAH!

[15:47] <SoonerGryffindor> lol [15:47] <Poet> No way would I say something. [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> I am so very very angry at Gambon [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> I could rant [15:47] <Siobhan4hp> I would [15:47] <Jrg1990> id totally kick him in the shins LOL [15:47] <ridikulusdragon> get carted off set by security and everything [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> .....I'm not going to [15:47] <futureweasley> John is going to jail if he has a run-in with Michael Gambon...there is no doubt in my mind [15:47] <SoonerGryffindor> that would be so funny [15:47] <jgarden14> No but I'd be mad inside [15:47] *** Expelliarmas left #lounge [] [15:47] <fawkes28> oh i could [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> but I could [15:47] <magicmeg8> ahaha james [15:47] <Sofie> but wh have a new scriptwriter. i havent list my faith completely [15:47] <x0ginnyW0x> ask a question and the chat explodes Meg :P [15:47] <Sofie> id shout at him [15:47] <fawkes28> someone needs to get through to that man [15:47] <gryffindelle> I would, right before I have to leave anyeays [15:47] <magicmeg8> true, sofie. [15:47] <Aislinn> he won't be on the set long if he does say something [15:47] <mrh216> I hope you're right, Sofie [15:48] <magicmeg8> haha, i know! [15:48] <ridikulusdragon> that's true, maybe he already told off gambon... i mean re-directed him ;) [15:48] <Siobhan4hp> Britishism: Jail equals prison. [15:48] <x0ginnyW0x> He *needs* to read the books! [15:48] <fawkes28> that should be mandatory [15:48] <x0ginnyW0x> He can't mess up the end OOTP scene [15:48] <mrh216> yep [15:48] <x0ginnyW0x> he CAN'T [15:48] <Aislinn> it should be [15:48] <ridikulusdragon> felton has only read a few, hasn't he? [15:48] <Sofie> *lost [15:48] <gryffindelle> yes, i wish [15:48] <magicmeg8> I don't think i'd have the nerves, personally, but i hope john would. [15:48] <Aislinn> they should have to pass the HP quiz [15:48] <Siobhan4hp> He just acts how he's written in the scripts, I don't blame him [15:48] <magicmeg8> lol ais! [15:48] <fawkes28> lol aislinn [15:48] <Poet> How Gambon acts in the scene with Voldemort in the Ministry is also controlled by the director and editor, so... [15:48] <gingin77> i do [15:48] <futureweasley> I can't believe he won't read it [15:48] <ridikulusdragon> i don't think john will, he has respect for the whole process overall [15:49] <futureweasley> I really, really can't...it's his best source for information [15:49] <Poet> The final product is somewhat dependent upon people besides Gambon. [15:49] <Sofie> john should totally BOMBARDA him with his wand [15:49] <mrh216> but gambon is a special case [15:49] <magicmeg8> yeah, you're probably right, ridikulus [15:49] <gingin77> How Gambon acts in this movie is going to make or break the movies for me [15:49] <ridikulusdragon> AHAHa sofie [15:49] <futureweasley> the LEAST he could do is listen to the books on tape [15:49] <mrh216> exactly [15:49] <x0ginnyW0x> mm, yeah [15:49] <Siobhan4hp> What d'you reckon the likiliness that Dwlish will be on set when they go? [15:49] <ridikulusdragon> haha, be like a hypnotic thing [15:49] <x0ginnyW0x> and Gambon is so IMPORTANT in HBP [15:49] <gryffindelle> if he ever wants a job in that industry, he can't harm anyone already in it, isn't he an effects major or something [15:49] <Sofie> Tom read HBP [15:49] <ridikulusdragon> must play dumbledore properly... [15:49] <yellowpepper2311> tape? wow that's archaic [15:49] <gryffindelle> ? [15:49] <x0ginnyW0x> he better get it right [15:49] <Siobhan4hp> *dawlish [15:49] <fawkes28> haha [15:49] <ridikulusdragon> cd then yellowpepper [15:49] *** stewiegryf left #lounge [] [15:49] <yellowpepper2311> he he he [15:49] <ridikulusdragon> smile [15:49] <Jrg1990> DD is sooooooo central in this movie. If Gambon does GoF DD again, the movie collapses. FULL STOP [15:50] <gingin77> if Dawlish is on set when John is there... omg... its gonna be soooo funny [15:50] <futureweasley> please remember, I'm old [15:50] <magicmeg8> Are you looking forward to John and Melissa's report back from the set? Will that be the best PotterCast ever? Or, will it be stale depending on the timing of its release? [15:50] <futureweasley> tape = CD [15:50] <ridikulusdragon> yeah next harry will have 'magical' bruises [15:50] <x0ginnyW0x> With DD's growing importance he must must must get it right [15:50] <Sofie> lololol, i want john to meat dawlish [15:50] <Siobhan4hp> gingin: it would be, Rse would forget to breathe I think [15:50] <fawkes28> lol tapes rule! [15:50] <gryffindelle> depends [15:50] <jgarden14> Still awsome no matter when comes out. [15:50] <ridikulusdragon> it'll be wicked sweet [15:50] * yellowpepper2311 likes tapes [15:50] <x0ginnyW0x> the farther away it is from the movie the more awesome it will be [15:50] <Poet> I am very excited about them going to the set. I'm glad they will be recording their thoughts. [15:50] *** dramione has quit [Bye] [15:50] <Aislinn> I still have tapes, FW [15:50] <magicmeg8> Yeah, I think it'll rule even if it's super late [15:50] <x0ginnyW0x> but it will be exciting no matter what [15:50] <mrh216> best PC ever! [15:50] <gingin77> It just stinks that they dont let them release the information right away [15:50] <magicmeg8> I like the set reports [15:50] <Aislinn> but then, I'm ancient tongue [15:50] <jgarden14> It'll be great just for their reactions not the info [15:50] <SoonerGryffindor> lol Ais [15:51] <magicmeg8> well, i don' want to know TOO much, camie (gingin) [15:51] <Poet> So, we get their thought - fresh. Even if they aren't released until much much later. [15:51] <futureweasley> I think they will keep it fresh, and it will be a Pottercast worth listening to [15:51] <gingin77> I do [15:51] <Siobhan4hp> There going to england right? shouldn''t that mean they could do a leaky mug, I ealy want to go to one. [15:51] <Sofie> *meet [15:51] <Poet> Yes, they plan on it Siobhan [15:51] <Jrg1990> lol [15:51] <mrh216> it'll be like a commentary without the DVD [15:51] *** adamgryff has quit [Bye] [15:51] <jgarden14> Only 3 of them though. [15:51] <x0ginnyW0x> It's not going to be live though [15:51] <Siobhan4hp> Maybe JAmie would go [15:51] <x0ginnyW0x> correct? [15:51] <ridikulusdragon> yeah they should do one out there [15:51] <Poet> They mentioned that is why they pushed for permission for a 2nd person from either Mugglenet or PotterCast to go [15:51] <yellowpepper2311> yeah [15:51] <fawkes28> when are they going? october? [15:51] <ridikulusdragon> who's going from mugglenet anyways? [15:51] <Sofie> are they allowed to make videotapes? [15:51] <futureweasley> there was a coin toss? [15:51] <magicmeg8> yeah, i don't think it will be live -- they'll just record things here and there [15:52] <Siobhan4hp> AAndrew [15:52] <jgarden14> Andrew [15:52] <gingin77> no later this month [15:52] <yellowpepper2311> I don'T think so Sofie [15:52] <Poet> They need at least 3 people to have seen the set to have a proper LeakyMug [15:52] <Aislinn> that would be so cool - to be able to be there on the set [15:52] <ridikulusdragon> oh, right I remember them saying it was andrew [15:52] <SoonerGryffindor> oh man, wouldn't it be Aislinn? [15:52] <Poet> (Though there is much they can't say about the set itself) [15:52] <ridikulusdragon> I suppose they wouldn't be able to take pictures, that's rotten [15:52] *** dramione has joined #lounge [15:52] <futureweasley> yep, Melissa, John and Andrew. Scary [15:52] <Siobhan4hp> I think Andrew wil get overexcited though, he's like that [15:52] <futureweasley> lol [15:52] <mrh216> what about jamie? he's already in the country? [15:52] <gryffindelle> hey dramoine [15:52] <ridikulusdragon> yeah I wish jamie could go [15:52] <futureweasley> and John will cry when he sees the Great Hall [15:52] <SoonerGryffindor> it would be like being where it all happens [15:53] <x0ginnyW0x> They only let 3 in [15:53] <dramione> hey grfyindelle [15:53] <ridikulusdragon> he's good at interviewing as well [15:53] <futureweasley> awwww [15:53] <gingin77> Andrew is gonna flip [15:53] <Poet> There will be others at the LeakyMug I'm sure. There are other things they can discuss at a LeakyMug.

Let's move on. In Scribbulus 8, Weird Sisters wrote an essay called "Why Can’t Everyone Just Be As Big a Harry Potter Fan as I Am?" Do you come across "super fans" who have only ever seen the movies? How do you feel about that? [15:55] <futureweasley> she has said that she's got a majorly Italian family...I can see Grandma not speaking good English [15:55] <x0ginnyW0x> Oh that annoys me so [15:55] <gingin77> < wasnt lying.. still doenst like emerson that much [15:55] <fawkes28> oh i really liked her essay [15:55] <ridikulusdragon> I've never just met a movie fan [15:55] <gryffindelle> they aren't superfans [15:55] <mrh216> i have [15:55] <gingin77> i loved that essay [15:55] <ridikulusdragon> so I have no idea [15:55] <x0ginnyW0x> even people who have read the books, but only once [15:55] <Aislinn> they are not super fans if they haven't read the books [15:56] <fawkes28> it was very true [15:56] <gingin77> and i was like... omg thats the story of my life [15:56] <SoonerGryffindor> I had to laugh so hard that people who only have seen the movies even consider themselves fans [15:56] <dramione> haha [15:56] <futureweasley> I don't like that at all...the movies are good, but you are not a superfan if you don't have the canon knowledge to back them up [15:56] <mrh216> great essay [15:56] <Aislinn> exactly FW [15:56] <Siobhan4hp> It's not cool to be a Hary Poter fan in my school, anytime I mention it I get wierd looks [15:56] <jgarden14> I hate that [15:56] <x0ginnyW0x> I com across people who claim to be fans but aren't allll the time in my age group [15:56] <Sofie> they suck [15:56] <x0ginnyW0x> Me too Siobhan [15:56] <mrh216> i always trya nd get movie fans to read the books [15:56] <gingin77> people think that it is wierd that i can memorise cannon [15:56] <Poet> That is why I made it a point to read Lord of the Rings before going to the movie, since I was going to the midnight showings [15:56] <dramione> yeah [15:56] <dramione> ppl think i'm childish cuz i read hp books [15:57] <jgarden14> I don't know one person who is a real HP fan only the fack ones like that. [15:57] <gingin77> they ask me about it if they have a question.. im going to start saying go to the lexicon soon [15:57] <Aislinn> have never understood why people are so resistant to reading - you get so much more from a book than you can ever get from a movie [15:57] <x0ginnyW0x> Because I get such weird looks, I'm very closet-ish about the my super fan status [15:57] *** magicmeg8 has quit [Bye] [15:57] *** magicmeg8 has joined #lounge [15:57] <Siobhan4hp> The bigest HP fan I know is my fried Sam, and he's only read up to OOTP [15:57] <yellowpepper2311> one who's seen only the films = fan; somone whos seen the movies and read the books at least three times = HP-geek [15:57] <Siobhan4hp> *friend [15:57] * Sofie s psot appear way too late [15:57] <yellowpepper2311> my definition of fans [15:57] <fawkes28> that's why we all love leaky so much becaus eit hard to find "real" fans [15:57] * Siobhan4hp is having typing issues [15:57] <mrh216> proud geek here [15:57] <yellowpepper2311> he he he [15:57] <x0ginnyW0x> I consider a fan as somebody who goes and gets the book the day it comes out [15:57] <futureweasley> being 26, I usually don't run into people in real life that try to step to my Harry Potter skills [15:58] <magicmeg8> haha, future [15:58] <gingin77> I have people who say they know more than me about it at college [15:58] <gingin77> which is funny [15:58] <gingin77> because i beat them everytime [15:58] <futureweasley> there was this one kid...but, let's just say I won [15:58] <Jrg1990> LOL [15:58] <gryffindelle> I have only had a chance to read HBP once, but I've read the others at least 5 times [15:58] * gryffindelle hangs head in shame [15:58] <fawkes28> at first i used the excuse that i am a teacher [15:58] <gingin77> dont gryffindelle [15:58] <fawkes28> now i dont care [15:58] <x0ginnyW0x> Someone challenged me to trivia once, and I showed them tongue [15:58] <gingin77> hahahahaha [15:59] <Sofie> lol [15:59] <Siobhan4hp> We once did a who wants to be a millionare type thing on the computer in IT lessions and I had my hand up for every question, they were so easy [15:59] * yellowpepper2311 sucks at trivia but is still a geek [15:59] <Jrg1990> I do that too gingin. people are all *ooo new HP book, im a superfan, and i asked them like one easy-ish question and they just failed. [15:59] <mrh216> i am very unapoligetic about my HP status [15:59] <magicmeg8> Are you a canon snob? Do you think movie fans are less HP fans than book fans? [15:59] <Poet> I get to use the excuse that I am a computer science major and help on a HP website. [15:59] <SoonerGryffindor> one of my best friends says that she is a big fan as well and she's only read each book once [15:59] <Jrg1990> its like......dont even claim you are a super fan [15:59] <x0ginnyW0x> Yes tongue [15:59] <futureweasley> um, yes [15:59] <gingin77> total cannon snob here [15:59] <magicmeg8> haha [15:59] * SoonerGryffindor admits to being a canon snob [15:59] <Aislinn> yes - total snob here [15:59] <mrh216> yes [15:59] <Siobhan4hp> I am a canon snob,,,,,, I ffrely admit it [15:59] * futureweasley is proudly a canon snob [15:59] <Siobhan4hp> *freely [15:59] <SoonerGryffindor> card-carrying member over here [15:59] <fawkes28> i took a HP class in college someone made a board game...we were so competitive [15:59] <x0ginnyW0x> Well, thats unanimous [15:59] <Poet> Yes, I am a canon snob I admit.

[16:07] <magicmeg8> I like to read rather than post [16:07] <magicmeg8> Petra thought that the Reading Groups help new member to get into the Forum without really jumping in full-force. Do you agree? Did this happen to you? [16:07] <Poet> I agree very much. [16:07] <yellowpepper2311> agreed. definitely [16:07] <ridikulusdragon> I would see that being a good progression [16:07] <fawkes28> yes, that how i started with he SS reading group [16:07] <Sofie> yep [16:07] <gingin77> my posts like skyrocketed because of the reading groups [16:07] <SoonerGryffindor> I was already pretty involved, but I have seen it happen a lot with some other members [16:07] <Poet> Don't have to worry about repeating points others have brought up [16:07] <Aislinn> I've seen that to be true meg [16:07] <Siobhan4hp> I've been on LL since January 05 so not really [16:07] <mrh216> i agree [16:07] <futureweasley> yes, I think the Reading Groups help to iintroduce you to the forum as a whole [16:07] <futureweasley> really, fawkes? [16:07] <gingin77> they get you comfortable posting [16:07] <Aislinn> there are new people in the groups that talk about how much less intimidating it is to post in there [16:07] <Sofie> though i started in my PS RG a few months after i became regulat on the lounge [16:07] <gryffindelle> not really, but it is ultimately why I joined [16:07] <Siobhan4hp> They are awesome though [16:08] <Aislinn> and then later you see them out on the main board [16:08] <justblue73> I need to get find the time to get more involved. The forum is a bit overwhelming if you dont spend much time here so I am hoping it helps [16:08] <SoonerGryffindor> but I do have to say that I didn't get to know you guyes nearly as well as I did from the reading groups [16:08] <magicmeg8> It would make sense to me -- i think it's a great way to start slow -- when i first came to the lounge i would pick threads by looking at the recently posted in [16:08] <fawkes28> yup i found the lounge because of SS RG [16:08] <ridikulusdragon> I'm off you guys, it was nice talking to all of you [16:08] <Poet> Actually, the reading groups summer 2005 were what got me to join after I'd been lurking for awhile.

[16:10] <fawkes28> i like the other topics besides the chapters [16:10] *** Sofie has quit [Bye] [16:10] <Poet> Yes, Meg. I don't have time to post, but I've enjoyed reading [16:11] <Siobhan4hp> I only post when I'm sure I know what I'm talking about, which isn't often [16:11] *** dramione has quit [Bye] [16:11] <gingin77> i love the chapters.... [16:11] <gingin77> they are my main domain [16:11] <mrh216> so do i [16:11] <fawkes28> that's how ive been learning about alchemy - it's nice to learn it in the smaller group than in the big one [16:11] <Siobhan4hp> POA is my fav hp book, [16:11] <magicmeg8> Have the Reading Groups changed the way you've read any of the books? Which book and how so? [16:11] <Aislinn> much easier to take in there than in the main thread fawkes [16:11] <gryffindelle> mine too, sio [16:11] <gingin77> its mine as well.. tied with ootp tho [16:11] <magicmeg8> it's definitely more focused in the rgs [16:12] <gingin77> Philosophers stone [16:12] <SoonerGryffindor> I love the THIPS threads that go on there [16:12] <justblue73> OOP is my favorite - its an emotional rollercoaster. [16:12] <gingin77> its now my second fav [16:12] <Aislinn> there are always insights that other people mention that hadn't occurred to me, so I love the groups for that [16:12] <fawkes28> i like getting others input [16:12] <SoonerGryffindor> it makes me look closer for clues now [16:12] <yellowpepper2311> yeah, I pay more attention to detail [16:12] <yellowpepper2311> s [16:12] <fawkes28> it makes me think and realize things ive never noticed [16:12] <gryffindelle> yeah [16:12] <jgarden14> Not really but the new theroies or new hidden things that was said now pop out more. [16:12] <mrh216> yeah [16:12] <justblue73> I am hoping the reading grops impact the way that I read the books and think more about what Jo may have planned for book 7 [16:12] <SoonerGryffindor> I also love the new threads that you see n Flourish & Blotts that arise from some of the topics [16:13] <gingin77> yeah sooner [16:13] <jgarden14> Yeah it is good for seeing foreshadowing [16:13] <Siobhan4hp> I don't notice nearly as much as I should that's why the reading groups are helpful to remember al these stuff that I forget about [16:13] <mrh216> i'm better at finding clues now [16:13] <yellowpepper2311> yeah [16:13] <gingin77> or just transfering thoughts [16:13] <futureweasley> the reading groups help when I have a question about something I can't quite wrap my head around [16:13] <mrh216> that happens to me a lot [16:13] <justblue73> If the books are supposed to be parallel to one another then hopefully, the goups will bring those few things that foreshadow events to come to light, [16:14] <gingin77> i love the forshadowing threads [16:14] <futureweasley> so, it's good to get in there, read some of the threads, and then reread the chapter...it gives you a whole new perspective at times [16:14] <gingin77> they are my favorate... [16:14] <fawkes28> i'm glad they talked about reading groups on pottercast i always try to encourage people to join [16:14] <Poet> Reading groups are a great way to share research, especially when it comes to huge subjects like Egyptian mythology or alchemy [16:14] <gingin77> Divination Station has the "things hidden in plane sight" great thread [16:14] <magicmeg8> me, too, fawkes! [16:14] *** danae24 has joined #lounge [16:14] <magicmeg8> In PS/SS, Petra thought Harry recieved too many letters; she thought that "difficult" cases would have recieved their letters directly through staff members. What do you think about this? [16:14] <futureweasley> I am always trying to get people to join, too [16:14] <danae24> Ok, I'm back!!! [16:14] <magicmeg8> wb, danae! [16:14] <futureweasley> you know HP fans are rereading anyway! Why not do it on a schedule with friends? [16:14] <Siobhan4hp> brb [16:14] <magicmeg8> we're just talking about the fan interview [16:15] <Poet> Dumbledore has a sense of humor for sure to keep sending letters [16:15] <mrh216> that's what i thought [16:15] <gingin77> lol.. Dumbledore... always knowing how to tourture the Dursleys [16:15] <SoonerGryffindor> exactly FW [16:15] *** AnnaNoe has joined #lounge [16:15] <SoonerGryffindor> welcome Anna [16:15] <danae24> Yes, I think DD thought of handing Harry the card via a staff member as a last resort..... [16:15] <futureweasley> hi Anna [16:15] <gingin77> Anna yay [16:15] <mrh216> but how often does a sitaution like Harry's happen? [16:15] <Poet> Also, he gave them a choice. They chose to keep ignoring the letters. [16:15] <AnnaNoe> hi~ [16:15] <Poet> Hi Anna [16:16] <gingin77> probably just Harrys in that case [16:16] <AnnaNoe> hi poet [16:16] * yellowpepper2311 yawns ... hugs everyone in the chat room and leaves coz it's time for bed. Bye! [16:16] <gryffindelle> hi anna [16:16] <Siobhan4hp> back [16:16] <futureweasley> bye yellowpepper [16:16] <gingin77> night yellow [16:16] <SoonerGryffindor> bye yellow [16:16] <Aislinn> right poet, they would have stopped if they had let him read one [16:16] <gryffindelle> bye yellowpepper [16:16] <magicmeg8> Yeah, good point poet. I'd think it'd be different for other people -- they might just say no and it'd be ok, but, you know, not with harry. [16:16] <Siobhan4hp> by yellowpepper [16:16] *** Islwyn13 has joined #lounge [16:16] <Aislinn> bye yp [16:16] <magicmeg8> night yellow! [16:16] <yellowpepper2311> bye folks! [16:16] <Siobhan4hp> *bye [16:16] <mrh216> bye yellow [16:16] <futureweasley> hi Islwyn [16:16] <Aislinn> hi islwyn [16:16] <danae24> he did the whole "bunch of cards" stunt because he kind of expected that Harry would get his hands on one of those.... [16:16] <Poet> I wonder if the Gaunts received special messengers - probably just the normal letter I presume. [16:16] *** yellowpepper2311 left #lounge [] [16:16] <Islwyn13> Heya ;) [16:16] <magicmeg8> hey islwyn! [16:16] <AnnaNoe> bye yellowww hi gryfdelle [16:16] <Islwyn13> Just a quick drop in to say "hi" smile [16:16] <fawkes28> hi isl [16:16] <gryffindelle> hi islwyn [16:17] <SoonerGryffindor> hi Islwyn [16:17] <gingin77> hi Islwyn [16:17] <Siobhan4hp> Hey [16:17] <danae24> Hi Islwyn!!! [16:17] <Aislinn> we were just talking about how great the RGs are [16:17] <futureweasley> Dumbledore was proving a point with the letters [16:17] <justblue73> I am still listening to 54 as I type but it I think it was Jo's way of really getting the readier to understand the dursley's personalities. [16:17] <futureweasley> there weren't too many...there were just enough [16:17] <Poet> I agree futureweasley [16:17] <magicmeg8> yeah, i think that's a great point, justblue. [16:17] <SoonerGryffindor> agreed [16:17] <Islwyn13> I haven't listened to the PC yet sad [16:17] <fawkes28> lol the dursleys didnt think so [16:17] <Poet> spot on [16:17] <justblue73> how they refused to even acknowledge the wizarding world [16:17] <SoonerGryffindor> laugh [16:17] <magicmeg8> exactly. [16:18] <justblue73> if you ignore it, it will just go away [16:18] <gingin77> Well how could you just keep ignoring hundreds of letters [16:18] <Aislinn> it did illustrate their pig-headedness well [16:18] <SoonerGryffindor> such a Dursley-ish attitude [16:18] <danae24> if they had been too many, Harry would have been able to get one, and we would never had seen that scene of the house in the rock..... [16:18] <mrh216> but they tried [16:18] <gingin77> like seriously thats just plain stupid [16:18] <justblue73> normalpeople cant but we arent talking about normal people, we are talking about the dursley's [16:18] <SoonerGryffindor> like with so many other things, their own pig-headedness makes things worse in the long run [16:18] <mrh216> exactly [16:18] <gingin77> exactly [16:18] <fawkes28> mr. dursley puts an awful lot of effort to get away...silly man [16:18] <AnnaNoe> pig-headedness.. biggrin [16:19] <Siobhan4hp> Yeah [16:19] <magicmeg8> As to the fear of Voldemort’s name, Petra thought he took pride in the fact folks were so scared of him, they would not speak his name. She thought this would take away from his goal of immortality–having your name remembered. Why didn’t Dumbledore reveal Voldemort was Tom Riddle? [16:19] <gingin77> because it set up book 2... lol [16:19] <futureweasley> I think Dumbledore thought it would incite more fear... [16:19] <Aislinn> it is interesting that Dumbledore doesn't make more of a point of revealing that [16:19] <Jrg1990> lol yeah [16:19] <justblue73> exactly, they felt if they locked the kdi in the cupboard under the stairs, it would stamp the magic out of him [16:19] <fawkes28> i dont think it was the right time [16:19] <Jrg1990> book 2 wouldnt be book 2 if DD always said Tom LOL [16:19] <danae24> I agree fawkes [16:19] <fawkes28> too much information at once is not good [16:19] <mrh216> hmmm...must think about that [16:20] <Jrg1990> thats the reason basically lol [16:20] <justblue73> it was a matter of timing also [16:20] <gingin77> the ignorance of people would laugh at Dumbledores face and say .. haha yeah right [16:20] <futureweasley> everyone who was connected in one form or another with Hogwarts knew that DD was the one who got Tom Riddle... [16:20] <Poet> I've always wondered that as well... Harry was only 11, so I don't think it was the time to be giving a history lesson. [16:20] <Islwyn13> Perhaps DD is trying to keep Tom Riddle separate from LV [16:20] <Aislinn> he doesn't need his name remembered if he is alive, as he himself will be foremost in the people's thoughts [16:20] <SoonerGryffindor> really, it does make you wonder why DD hasnt been more forthcoming with info on Tom Riddle [16:20] <Aislinn> its only when someone dies that their name needs to be remembered [16:20] <futureweasley> it would have brought more questions that DD wasn't prepared to answer [16:20] <justblue73> and dumbledore reveals how much he cares about harry in book 5 and it was his way of protecting him [16:20] *** AnnaNoe has quit [Bye] [16:20] <jgarden14> Also he wanted to look into his past he didn't want evreyone else to do so too. [16:20] <Islwyn13> maybe he thinks Tom might be able to be redeemed, if he sheds the cloak of LV... [16:20] <magicmeg8> Well, it took DD quite a while to tell Harry much of anything, so i'd think the name of tom riddle would have been something revealed later. [16:20] <Islwyn13> Man, that sounded weird...I hate fevers smile [16:20] <danae24> That and the fact that Harry had to learn slowly of Voldemort, and not have his head crammed with info since book 1 [16:20] <mrh216> that's true [16:20] <futureweasley> good outlook Isl [16:20] <Poet> And the Ministry was ignoring the Voldemort problem, so they might have not cared. [16:20] <Jrg1990> anyway...ill talk to y'allz later. [16:21] *** AnnaNoe has joined #lounge [16:21] <futureweasley> bye James [16:21] <magicmeg8> WB anna! [16:21] <gingin77> wb anna [16:21] <danae24> bye James! [16:21] <SoonerGryffindor> bye james, wb Anna [16:21] <AnnaNoe> geez [16:21] <jgarden14> Bye James, wb Anna [16:21] <gingin77> bye james [16:21] <Siobhan4hp> Bye James! [16:21] <AnnaNoe> it kept knockin me off [16:21] <Jrg1990> i have my first day sixth form in the morning so need sleep. Night all. [16:21] <gryffindelle> bye james, wb anna [16:21] <magicmeg8> night james! [16:21] <futureweasley> well, let's hope you're back to stay this time, eh? [16:21] <Poet> I definitely think Dumbledore didn't want to draw attention to the fact he was researching Tom. [16:21] <Siobhan4hp> I feel fo you, James, G'night [16:21] <futureweasley> yes, feed snuffles, by all means! [16:22] *** Jrg1990 has quit [Bye] [16:22] <gingin77> lol [16:22] <magicmeg8> Well, the fan interview rocked! Let us contiune. This week's Canon Conundrums was on wands. Did anyone call in and make it on the air? What did you talk about? [16:22] <justblue73> and what's really odd is that once tom riddle became LV, his aards and honors were still on display in the award case [16:22] <danae24> lets get a fat Snuffles!! [16:22] <futureweasley> I called in and made it on the air!! [16:22] <danae24> yay for future!!! [16:22] <futureweasley> I was the second call-in [16:22] <Aislinn> yay, FW! [16:22] <magicmeg8> rockin' future! [16:22] <mrh216> good for you, FW [16:22] <fawkes28> yay! (and you didnt say woot!) [16:23] <futureweasley> whoo-hoo [16:23] <futureweasley> for you [16:23] <AnnaNoe> oh yea PC jus came out like...not long ago..ok im so bad. BRB [16:23] <Siobhan4hp> I would of but the topic requires too much cleverness for me too ring in [16:23] <futureweasley> I talked about how Ollivander sold Neville the last wand before "disappearing" [16:23] <magicmeg8> what did you talk about, future? just as a recap [16:23] <justblue73> dont feel bad anna, i am about 40mins behind [16:24] <futureweasley> and how I think that the wands will mean everything in the last battle...well, not everything, but they will symbolize everything [16:24] <Aislinn> interesting points, FW [16:24] <mrh216> i think so too [16:24] <magicmeg8> cool. [16:24] <fawkes28> nice [16:24] <justblue73> Sio - i felt the same way, i needed to really think about it [16:24] <danae24> Neville was lucky.......... I kind of feel that wands are an extension of the wizard, not just only a device to do magic.... [16:24] <futureweasley> I said that the Lounge has got some crazy theories flying around, and I think that they all have some merit [16:24] <magicmeg8> i think the symbol aspect is a good point [16:24] <futureweasley> I'm paraphrasing, of course [16:24] <magicmeg8> lol future [16:24] <Poet> Yes, the wands have the same core, so I think this says something important about the Harry and Voldemort connection [16:25] <fawkes28> i think we all these theories we have we still wont figure it all out [16:25] <gingin77> i liked the whole discussion on the word destined [16:25] <Lizzieangel90> yeah [16:25] <futureweasley> yes, that made a lot of sense to me [16:25] <mrh216> me too [16:25] <gingin77> like how the wand was destined for harry... and harry is destined to fight voldie in the end [16:25] <futureweasley> "brother wands" and "destined" [16:25] <Aislinn> yes [16:26] <magicmeg8> Canon Conundrums was hosted by Jason (TheGuruofSloth), John, and Melissa discussed the significance of the wands to book 7. How do you feel about their dynamic? [16:26] <Poet> And Tom Riddle reimnded Harry of an old friend when he came out of the diary wink [16:26] <futureweasley> I love their dynamic, but I love Steve, too [16:26] <futureweasley> I want it ALL! [16:26] <gryffindelle> yeah [16:26] <Islwyn13> Steve was gone again? [16:26] <fawkes28> i liked them together but i did miss steve [16:26] <gingin77> they need Steve V. its just not cannon conundrums without Steve [16:26] <Poet> Did I miss having Steve there? For sure. [16:26] <Islwyn13> What, he's still camping? [16:26] <danae24> I missed Steve.......... he is the whole esence of CC............. [16:26] <Siobhan4hp> I watch far too much sci fi, so I kept comparing what they were saying about Fawkes, Regenersting into a new boy, mental age looking younger than he is to Doctor Who, what can I say? I don't have a life [16:26] <gingin77> they were great tho [16:26] <mrh216> i thought they were great but i love Steve [16:26] <justblue73> I miss Steve, I like Jason but i do miss Steve [16:26] <jgarden14> It was great because I missed having Guru now without Modcast but Steve is great too. [16:27] <danae24> They should have Cheryl back for a Canon Conundrum...... [16:27] <gingin77> i was happy it was guru tho [16:27] <Poet> Yes, it's great having Jason (Guru) in CC. [16:27] <magicmeg8> I was happy about guru though -- i think they really tore up the topic [16:27] <fawkes28> im glad they put him in it would have been weird with just two of them [16:27] <SoonerGryffindor> gotta love Jason in the CC segment [16:27] <gingin77> it wouldnt have gotten done if it was just two of them [16:27] <gingin77> i missed sue too [16:27] <futureweasley> Jason is a smartie, too [16:27] <mrh216> Jason is great in that segment [16:27] <magicmeg8> well, it's good to have some variety [16:28] <futureweasley> I just love him...he is funny and very knowledgable [16:28] <justblue73> You definitely need the variety of personalities [16:28] <mrh216> exactly [16:28] <danae24> Jason is good too!!! I love the insight he brings..... [16:28] <gingin77> Jason is great [16:28] * futureweasley wants to give Guru a big hug!! [16:28] <AnnaNoe> ok i gtg bye guys [16:28] <magicmeg8> Well, they discussed the possibility of Voldy getting a new wand. Do you think that will happen: why or why not? [16:28] <magicmeg8> bye anna! [16:28] <gingin77> bye anna [16:28] <fawkes28> bye [16:28] <gingin77> No way [16:28] <danae24> bye Anna! [16:28] <futureweasley> Voldemort is too vane to switch wands [16:28] <jgarden14> No prior icatatam is too importent [16:28] <gingin77> Voldie will keep his wand [16:28] *** AnnaNoe has quit [Bye] [16:28] <gryffindelle> bye anna [16:28] <gingin77> i agree future [16:28] <fawkes28> i dont think it would work too well [16:29] <gingin77> he is too vane [16:29] <mrh216> no, he's way to in love with his wand to want to change it [16:29] <Aislinn> I think he is too FW [16:29] <SoonerGryffindor> no way man, LV will keep his same wand [16:29] <justblue73> Well if it is the wand that choses the wizard and not the other way around, how is that possible. [16:29] <danae24> I dont think that Voldy will get a new wand...... unless he can make an even more powerful wand..... [16:29] <Aislinn> and people seem to need to be matched to a certain wand - if he got a new one, it may not do as well for him [16:29] <futureweasley> I think if anyone switches wands, it will be Harry...but I think it will only happen if he's "forced" to do it [16:29] <Islwyn13> he's undergone a lot of changes since he got his first wand, though [16:29] <fawkes28> i agree ais [16:29] <Islwyn13> He might need a new one [16:29] <gingin77> exactly future [16:29] *** flipendo has joined #lounge [16:29] <mrh216> exactly [16:30] <magicmeg8> Maybe his wand will be modified somehow. [16:30] <gingin77> i think ovlivander left on his own will [16:30] <justblue73> If you are using a wand that is not destined for you - do you end up with the catastrphies like Ron in book 2? [16:30] <danae24> Maybe he will not stick with the 3 common wand cores, and use a more "powerful" thing...... [16:30] <Aislinn> I don't think either one will get a new one - although Voldie may have Ollivander working on one for him [16:30] <gingin77> so maybe olivander contacts harry [16:30] <futureweasley> I liked what Melissa said about "outgrowing" your wand [16:30] <fawkes28> maybe harry will break it lol [16:30] <SoonerGryffindor> great chat so far guys, but I've got to go [16:30] <gingin77> aww .. bye sooner [16:30] <Islwyn13> bye, sooner! [16:30] <futureweasley> I said that on the call-in [16:30] <justblue73> bye [16:30] <fawkes28> well voldemort does not deserve fawkes feather [16:30] <futureweasley> the "break the wand" thing [16:30] <SoonerGryffindor> bye everyone hug [16:30] <fawkes28> bye sooner [16:30] <Siobhan4hp> Maybe it a horcruz, yes, that's my very original idea, o'course [16:31] <Poet> Yes, we know that some people get new wands as they get older. Lily appeared to. [16:31] <futureweasley> bye Sooner [16:31] <futureweasley> see you Wednesday [16:31] <danae24> I dont think Harry will change his wand......... I think he hasnt gotten out the full potential of the wand [16:31] <mrh216> but do we know of any other adults who've changed wands? [16:31] <Siobhan4hp> *horcrux [16:31] *** SoonerGryffindor has quit [Bye] [16:31] <justblue73> do we know if the wand that LV has is the wand he was given when he first became a student at Hogwarts? [16:31] <gingin77> where did you see that poet [16:31] <Poet> Some of the Death eaters might have new wands. [16:31] <Islwyn13> we don't know of any other wizards who have "died" and come back, either ;) [16:31] <magicmeg8> I don't know, justblue, but i assume, so [16:31] <Aislinn> I think little kids might get "training" wands, but I think the one that they get before going to school is the one they keep [16:31] <futureweasley> anytime a wizard breaks their wand, they need a new one [16:31] <justblue73> BRB [16:32] <Aislinn> unless it gets broken or something [16:32] <Islwyn13> I think LV would be wise to get another wand, which is why I don't think he will smile [16:32] <magicmeg8> Can the two wands fight each other, or will priori incantatum always prevent them from effectively fighting each other? [16:32] <Poet> Gingin - from an interview. We don't know that Lily for sure had a new one, but Olivander said "I remember your mother's first wand" [16:32] <gingin77> the two wands can fight [16:32] <jgarden14> Alwyas prevent [16:32] <gingin77> good point poet thanks [16:32] <Poet> It will always, yes [16:32] *** gryffindelle has quit [Bye] [16:32] <Aislinn> I think it will always happen if they cast spells together [16:32] <futureweasley> Priori Incantatum will only come into play if they are "dueling" [16:32] <Siobhan4hp> No, because like they said they were lucky that time because it was he exact same time [16:32] <fawkes28> i liked what they said about being able to fight but not at the same exact time [16:32] <mrh216> i think they can [16:32] *** gryffindelle has joined #lounge [16:32] <Lizzieangel90> i think priori incantatum will always prevent them from fighting [16:32] <gryffindelle> stupid internet [16:32] <jgarden14> Yeah fawke [16:33] <gingin77> Priori Incantatum.. who said that it has to be like the exact same time... the exact same space [16:33] <Poet> As long as they both aim properly [16:33] <gingin77> i agree with that [16:33] <Aislinn> lily's may have been broken in one of the times she defied Voldie [16:33] <gryffindelle> what's the question now? [16:33] <futureweasley> I think so too, Lizzie...they won't be able to effectively and strategically hit each other [16:33] <danae24> I dont know...... maybe the Priori Incantatum will happen always or only in cases where there is the exact opposite spell........ [16:33] <magicmeg8> boo. internet. Yeah, i think it will likely make it difficult for them to duel. [16:33] <magicmeg8> If the wand is just a vessel, would they be unable to defeat each other even with using wandless magic? [16:33] <fawkes28> well maybe they wont be able to use their wands against each other and that is how it is supposed to be [16:33] <Aislinn> I don't think they were exact opposite spells danae [16:33] <gryffindelle> I think so [16:33] <Aislinn> that is an interesting question [16:33] <gingin77> i think that Priori is rare... it wont hapen all the time.. maybe once more like for the final push [16:33] <Poet> Voldemort was able to crucio Harry and to make him bow, so if Harry were hit unprepared... [16:34] <jgarden14> Yeah probebly if Harry is strong enough. [16:34] <gingin77> that was a good quesiton [16:34] <gingin77> It depends on Harry's skill in wandless magic [16:34] <mrh216> i'm looking forward to wandless magic actually [16:34] <gryffindelle> I think it will ultimately depend on some other factor [16:34] <mrh216> so i hope not [16:34] <magicmeg8> good point, camie (gingin), we know so little about wandless magic anyhow [16:34] <Poet> I do think Harry will use wandless magic again, but I don't think it will be all wandless [16:34] <danae24> I think they will be able to fight without wands..... maybe thru that "other" type of magic Jo has talked..... [16:35] <mrh216> i agree, Poet [16:35] <fawkes28> yes, danae [16:35] <Poet> I also don't think it will be all wordles [16:35] <futureweasley> I'm worried about how "wandless magic" will play on the page... [16:35] <futureweasley> I'm afraid that I will get confused [16:35] <gingin77> I dont see harry mastering wordless magic [16:35] *** MidnightPhoenix has joined #lounge [16:35] <magicmeg8> haha, I was just thinking that, future. [16:35] <justblue73> back [16:35] <Siobhan4hp> I don't even think Harry wil need to use his wand to defeat voldie, because you can't fight evil with evil and what good spell is going to destroy voldie? [16:35] <gingin77> i see him getting pritty good at it.. but not mastering it [16:35] *** MidnightPhoenix has quit [Bye] [16:36] <jgarden14> expeliarmis sio. heh [16:36] *** MidnightPhoenix has joined #lounge [16:36] <gingin77> the mysterious love spell that hermione is going to find in a book in one of the later chapters of book seven [16:36] <gryffindelle> yeah [16:36] <gingin77> lol Siobhan [16:36] <mrh216> yep [16:36] <Aislinn> he's going to use the psychic connection between them, which will not require wand use [16:36] <mrh216> : [16:36] <futureweasley> Harry is his own worst enemy...the boy does not like to close his mind, or do anything that has to do with overworking his brain. If it's instinct, that's one thing... [16:36] <danae24> Bye guys, I have to go..... have fun!!!! [16:36] <magicmeg8> Did Voldemort know about priori incantatum they way Dumbledore did? If not, would he need Olivander to explain what happened? [16:37] <futureweasley> if it requires effort, that's quite another [16:37] <MidnightPhoenix> bye [16:37] <magicmeg8> bye danae! [16:37] <futureweasley> bye danae [16:37] <gingin77> No.. Voldemort was dumbstruck [16:37] <Siobhan4hp> Maybe, I dunno, I just can't see it being a huge magical duel everyones expecting [16:37] *** danae24 left #lounge [] [16:37] <mrh216> i don't think he did [16:37] <Lizzieangel90> i think he need olivader to explain it to him and then make him a new wand [16:37] <mrh216> he forgot about the phoenix tears after all [16:37] *** MidnightPhoenix has quit [Bye] [16:37] <fawkes28> i dont think so how often does that even happen? i think it's extremely rare [16:37] <Siobhan4hp> I don't think he did, Voldie is quiiet dumb at times [16:38] <Poet> I don't think Voldemort knew he and Harry had the same wand core [16:38] <magicmeg8> Yeah,I think so too, fawkes [16:38] <gingin77> future.. i disagree with the effort thing... harry was pritty determined in book six with the draco thing [16:38] <mrh216> well, Tom Riddle did [16:38] <justblue73> I am sure he knew about it but maybe just forgot - like th old magic that protected harry the night his parents were killed [16:38] <gryffindelle> I think lv did know [16:38] <flipendo> Oh, good point, Poet. (hi, all, by the way) smile [16:38] <Islwyn13> gotta go, guys, later! [16:38] <justblue73> true gingin, he also used the levicorpus spell tht lifeted ron out the air [16:38] <gryffindelle> but after the fact [16:38] <Siobhan4hp> I don't those types of magic, voldie undervalues [16:38] <Aislinn> I don't think he knew, but I think he made a point of finding out afterward what had happened [16:38] <futureweasley> gingin, can I PM you about that later? [16:38] <fawkes28> bye islwyn [16:38] <gingin77> bye Isly [16:38] <gingin77> sure [16:38] <futureweasley> ok, thanks [16:38] *** Islwyn13 left #lounge [] [16:39] <gryffindelle> bye islwyn [16:39] <Siobhan4hp> By Islwyn [16:39] <magicmeg8> Did Ollivander go into hiding or did Voldemort take him? Could someone have hidden Ollivander? [16:39] <futureweasley> I don't think LV knew it was going to happen, but I think he recognized it for what it was when it did happen [16:39] <gingin77> Ollivander went into hiding [16:39] <Siobhan4hp> I think DD helped hide him [16:40] <mrh216> I hope he's in hiding [16:40] <Poet> I also think he is in hiding. [16:40] <gingin77> yeah sio that to me seems like the most logical [16:40] <flipendo> At first, I thought he was taken by Death Eaters; but now I think he might be hiding. Maybe DD hid him. [16:40] <futureweasley> Ollivander is either hiding on his own accord, or is being hidden by the Order [16:40] <justblue73> I would hate to find out that he has been taken [16:40] <justblue73> and working for the Death Easter [16:40] <gingin77> same here justblue [16:40] <justblue73> Eaters, I mean [16:40] <mrh216> maybe a Fidelius charm? [16:40] <magicmeg8> Olivander's an odd duck. [16:40] <futureweasley> I do, however, think that Fortescue was taken...but I think Ollivander was spared [16:40] <fawkes28> he is [16:40] <Aislinn> he is meg [16:40] <justblue73> never thought of that. [16:41] <Poet> The Death Eaters like to make a scene for purpose of creating fear. [16:41] *** jgarden14 has quit [Bye] [16:41] <mrh216> I agree about Fortescue [16:41] <gryffindelle> the order his him, i think [16:41] <gingin77> i think Ollivander got out after Fortescue [16:41] <futureweasley> yes Gingin...my thoughts exactly [16:41] <Aislinn> his shop wasn't trashed, like Fortescue's was [16:41] <futureweasley> right [16:41] <gingin77> exaclty... he had enought time to get away [16:41] <futureweasley> it was just empty [16:41] <Poet> But where could he hide all of the wands? This is very curious indeed. [16:41] <Aislinn> right [16:42] <fawkes28> in the room of requirement! [16:42] <futureweasley> a vault in Gringotts [16:42] <flipendo> Do you think DD warned Olivander after Harry's story of priori incantantum? [16:42] <fawkes28> lol [16:42] <gingin77> he shrunk them and put them in his man purse [16:42] <justblue73> Maybe there were there. [16:42] <mrh216> exactly [16:42] <justblue73> Fawkes - I was thinking the same thing! [16:42] <futureweasley> or, they are hidden in plain sight [16:42] <mrh216> smile [16:43] <justblue73> Maybe it is the Fidelius charm and Ollivander and the wands are still there [16:43] <gingin77> that is a good possiblility justblue [16:43] <mrh216> that's what i think [16:43] * Siobhan4hp is confused [16:43] <gingin77> but a little risky [16:43] <gryffindelle> yeah, justblue [16:43] <mrh216> especially if DD was SecretKeeper [16:43] <gingin77> exactly mrh [16:43] <justblue73> I know I am reaching but anything is possible in Jo's world [16:43] <gingin77> i was just thinking that [16:44] <futureweasley> there are too many possibilities...it's one of those things I will be relieved to put to bed when reading Book 7 [16:44] <fawkes28> that's interesting blue [16:44] <gingin77> If DD was secretkeeper for ollivander.. we will never see him again [16:44] <magicmeg8> The Canon Conundrums certainly made you think this week, but let's move onto the Extendable Ears. This PC's interview was with Danny Bilson, one of the original innovators of the Harry Potter videogames. [16:44] <magicmeg8> He gave a lot of information about where all the extra spells and creatures came from in the games: they were all invented by Jo. Were you surprised to hear this? [16:44] <mrh216> me too [16:44] <gingin77> surprised but HAPPY [16:44] <futureweasley> yes, actually [16:44] <fawkes28> glad to hear [16:44] <mrh216> yes [16:44] <magicmeg8> i was surprised as well. [16:45] <gryffindelle> not really [16:45] <fawkes28> it is her world she deserves it smile [16:45] <futureweasley> I thought why would Jo give Video Game makers all that information? [16:45] <mrh216> thank Jo! [16:45] <gingin77> becasue Jo would want her world to be accurate future [16:45] <gryffindelle> but I don't know if any of those are really important in the books [16:45] <futureweasley> like she wouldn't care about the "games"...I don't konw what made me think that [16:45] <gingin77> if she wasnt planning on using it in the books it can extend her world without giving stuff away [16:45] <futureweasley> I just thought she'd disconnect her books and the movies from video games [16:45] <Poet> Only 15 minutes left, everyone! This has been a great chat! We want to remind you all that this transcript can be found at the PotterCast Forum http://www.leakylounge.com/PotterCast-f104.html. [16:45] <futureweasley> I'm glad she didn't, though [16:45] <mrh216> for obsessed people like us [16:46] <futureweasley> lol mrh [16:46] <justblue73> It is surprising but it gives more weight to the games. I know she wants to maintain control over the characters she has created to ensure they are portrayed in the best ulight. [16:46] <fawkes28> i think it is interesting she gave that information because i wonder how many people that play the games read the books [16:46] *** flipendo has quit [Bye] [16:46] <magicmeg8> I thought that was all EA/WB territory. [16:46] <gingin77> i have to say that i have barely played the games [16:46] <futureweasley> it makes me want to play the games [16:46] <futureweasley> and see what I'm missing [16:46] <justblue73> So often when books are translated into other media, so much is lost from the author;s original direction [16:46] <gingin77> but im going to get the 4th one soon [16:46] <fawkes28> lol right future but i bet it doesnt work the other way around [16:46] <mrh216> me too, FW [16:46] <Lizzieangel90> I had a lot of fun today!! I hope you all have a great day!! I've got to go! byebye!! *huggles* to all!!! This post has been edited by Poet: Sep 4 2006, 07:02 PM |

[16:47] <gingin77> bye liz [16:47] <justblue73> I have played the GOF game and its been a bit tricky. [16:47] <futureweasley> probably not [16:47] <fawkes28> bye lizzie [16:47] <futureweasley> bye Lizzie [16:47] <Aislinn> bye lizzie [16:47] <justblue73> by lizzie [16:47] <futureweasley> behave yourself! [16:47] <fawkes28> which is a shame [16:47] <gryffindelle> bye lizzie [16:47] <gingin77> its rpg style right [16:47] *** Lizzieangel90 left #lounge [] [16:47] <Poet> I was very surprised that she'd worked so closely with them, but it makes a lot of sense. [16:47] <mrh216> bye liz [16:47] <futureweasley> yes, Poet...I agree [16:47] <magicmeg8> It does, Poet. and I'm glad -- i mean, they have to have some sort of base for making the models [16:48] <mrh216> yeah, it does [16:48] <Poet> Wouldn't we love to get our hands on that parallel fiction document. [16:48] <futureweasley> you know that aren't just coming up with "bombarda", like out of thin air [16:48] <Poet> 100+ pages at the time, huh? [16:48] <fawkes28> lol poet [16:48] <mrh216> definately [16:48] <gingin77> that was so anoying [16:48] <gingin77> i hated bombarda [16:48] *** Siobhan4hp has quit [Bye] [16:48] <futureweasley> it was impressive on screen...but I wasn't a Canon Snob member yet [16:49] <gingin77> well as a cannon snob member now... do you like it or hate it [16:49] <mrh216> but it's canon now [16:49] <magicmeg8> In the Wrap-Up, we learned about a new Broadway filk contest. Are you going to write a filk? Record one? Send one in? [16:49] <futureweasley> not at all [16:49] <justblue73> "canon snob" - I like that [16:49] <gingin77> recorded two already [16:49] <magicmeg8> rockin! [16:49] <futureweasley> lol, good for you Gin [16:49] <justblue73> I definitely plan on writing a filk [16:50] <mrh216> awesome [16:50] <fawkes28> if i had time maybe [16:50] <magicmeg8> I've actually never written a filk, but i'm not so good with writing lyrics [16:50] <futureweasley> I will have to ask you how you do that. I own all my own Karaoke stuff, but I don't have the software to record it [16:50] <mrh216> i'm no good at writing those things [16:50] <gingin77> well..i have an in with the filk queen herself... how couldnt i take advantage of that lol [16:50] <fawkes28> but i dont think i'd be that good [16:50] <gingin77> use audacity future.. or just pm me [16:50] <justblue73> writing would be easy, its the recording portion that will be a challenge - i am not a singer. [16:50] <gryffindelle> probably not, I'm really bad at that stuff [16:50] <futureweasley> I will PM you later about that [16:50] <futureweasley> thanks gingin [16:50] <magicmeg8> You can download a program like Audacity (just google it) and record [16:50] <gingin77> sure [16:51] <futureweasley> I love writing filks, they are fun! [16:51] <gingin77> they are fun [16:51] <magicmeg8> They seem complex [16:51] <futureweasley> and I like listening to other people's creativity [16:51] <justblue73> i have enjoyed listening to the filks that have been writtenin the past [16:51] <gingin77> i just stink at the broadway ones.. so i recorded stuff for hermyg [16:51] <fawkes28> some people come up with great ones [16:51] <futureweasley> some are, Meg...and some are really simple [16:51] <justblue73> but Broadway should be easy [16:51] <gingin77> she wrote them..... i sing... all arehappy [16:51] <mrh216> i'm looking forward to hearing what ya'll come up with! [16:52] <magicmeg8> Yeah, I like the broadway idea [16:52] <futureweasley> I've got an idea...when I was in NYC, I got to see Spamalot... [16:52] <justblue73> Me too - I am looking forward to hearing what the new filks will be. [16:52] <Aislinn> yeah - broadway tunes sound like they'll be fun [16:52] <futureweasley> I'd like to use one of the songs from that [16:52] <gingin77> dont give it away future [16:52] <futureweasley> I won't [16:52] <magicmeg8> OK. Final thoughts on PC 54, everyone? [16:52] <futureweasley> don't worry [16:52] <justblue73> and it doesnt have to be something that is on broadway now - there are tons of shows that are no longer in [16:52] <gryffindelle> it was awesome [16:53] <gingin77> best podcast without sue ever.... i missed sue a lot [16:53] <fawkes28> good even if sue was missing [16:53] <futureweasley> great show.
