Did you discover any fun/new areas of HOL?
Funnily enough, I did discover that on the HOL forum if you go to quick links, there's a link to take you directly to unread posts. After five years, I had no idea until that one task for Off to School. It has been immensely helpful since then. Less time consuming checking the forum!
Which task(s) did you enjoy completing?
The quidditch tasks were definitely my favorite. I also liked that each house had their own little task with a house theme attached.
Did you attend any chat parties? Which game did you like the best?
I was able to attend three chat parties I believe, and I really liked the "Who am I?" games and the "Whodunnit" game that Medea ended up being the culprit and no one had a clue. I had such solid reasoning for Cody, and he turned out to be innocent. Oops.

Such a fun activity!!
Did you discover any fun/new areas of HOL? I learned a lot more about topics that I should know already such as how to see just new posts.
Which task(s) did you enjoy completing? All the creative tasks were amazing! I LOVED creating a scrapbook page. I also love all the puzzles.
Did you attend any chat parties? Which game did you like the best? I did get to attend a chat party and my favorite game was the who do it mystery!! So much fun.

Re: Off to School
This was a great activity for the start of term. I love that all the Common Rooms were involved and how so many aspects of HOL were introduced. I had trouble deciding where to move the forum after it was over because there are so many helpful links! The chat parties were a lot of fun and I'm glad they are continuing. One day I will get to play Articulate!
