We plan on having the next pickup sometime in April and are still very interested in your availbility, especially if you've had a particularly hard time making the Saturday 5:30 PM HOL pickup time!

Re: Lesson 2 - Critical Inference (SPRING 2024)
NOTE: This 'response' is intended to give students a chance to earn reply points right away. Each word in the sentence does have an intended Parseltongue meaning, but I'm forgetting that fact for now! The third image, showing a cute boy very happily hugging a gorgeous snake, was described with the f...

Re: Which Wizarding World Food Would You Most Like to Try?
I'm amazed that pumpkin juice is unknown in the American Muggle world given how much American Muggles enjoy pumpkin as a sweet and savoury food - and are even starting to put it in their drinks in the form of pumpkin pie filling! To be honest, I would love the chocolate stuff a lot because chocolate...

Re: Pickup Scheduling: 2023-4
Time to think about our next pickup! Although we did get some people last time who couldn't show up before, our turnout wasn't quite as high ten days ago as it had been in January. We're thinking about having our next pickup sometime in March; if you're interested in playing, and especially if you c...

My name is Prof. Will Lestrange and I am currently the Head of House for Slytherin. I joined HOL in 2013 - two years after Prof. Sirius Fudge (Sirius was actually my First Friend when I started out, back when that was still a thing)... hard to believe I've been here for over ten years! I joined this...

Lesson 4 - Bus! (SPRING 2024)
As per Assignment Four , we will play a counting game in this thread! ( Bus is the way snakes refer to the buzzing sound made by busbira - which is the Parseltongue for 'bee/bumblebee/yellow buzz'. In particular, Bus is NOT the equivalent of the English word 'bus'.) The rules of this game are as fol...

We had great turnout last Saturday, but at the same time I know at least one or two people who were interested in playing were unable to make it! If you are interested in playing in the next two pickups, especially if you weren't able to make the last time out, please let me know your availability o...

Re: Professional Sporting Teams, anyone?
The professional sports teams I follow the most are the ones based out of Baltimore: I've been an Orioles fan for as long as I can remember (so much disappointment - especially 1989 as well as the years of losing after 1997) and also support the Ravens - everyone seems to be optimistic that this is ...
