I guess I should stop whining about the hour I have been waiting. Sigh...:ohwell:

kapeluza

YES! Going to sign up!

nerdyandilikeit

Awesome! I know waiting for those emails can be agonizing! Did it tell you they might come in waves? For beta I had to wait several weeks! I hope that's not the case here, but you never know. Ah! I'm so excited for you guys!

Any idea when they're going to open the other books?

Not a clue! I wish I did, but I'm technically not even done with the first one. I haven't spent any real time there in ages. I suspect they'll give the newcomers some time to fish around before they open new stuff.

Well i'm in and having fun learning the back story and stuff...I just got sorted and am in...

I'm in - thanks Bron for the heads up, it's been a long wait.

Currently exploring Privet Drive, but off to play badminton in two minutes, gah!

So no idea when I get sorted, but I'll keep you posted.

When I saw this post earlier today... made my day. Thanks for letting us know!

I've been sorted into Hufflepuff and have a Rowan wand with dragon core, 12 and 3/4 inches. (Username's LumosDragon24356, feel free to add me )

I feel the sorting totally fits me and has solved that identity crisis of mine XD I always had difficulty choosing - who didn't want to be in Gryffindor with the Trio? If you read the books, you probably were bookish/Ravenclaw-esque in that manner like me. And then there was the honesty and loyalty factor of mine. Came down to that really.

Not going to lie... I cried a little tear of happiness while going through this... Or two... Three... Okay many. Fan girl problems.

Awesome! It's so nice to see you so excited about your Sorting! I love that it helped you rather than gave you a mini crisis

Hayley- it follows the storyline, so you'll get sorted when Harry gets sorted. No hurry!

MindyBlack

I am in!! I haven't gotten to the point where I get sorted yet as I am babysitting my 2 year old grandson. He is commanding my attention, go figure!! LOL!
My name is WillowRose6256. Please add me. I am going to send requests to all of you who posted your names here.

Thanks!

Thanks Bron. I just sent you a PM asking you some of these questions. Feel free to ignore it as I think you answered them all here.
I am so excited!!! I wish I had gotten in yesterday as it was a rainy stormy day. Today is beautiful and I need to make up some serious calorie burn.

Not been home long, but am loving the way the story is presented.

Thanks for explaining about the sorting, it might be a while, as I'm taking my time and exploring it properly - and hopefully finding all the things!.

I've just bought my wand, it's "ACACIA WITH DRAGON CORE, NINE AND A HALF INCHES, BRITTLE" :bigsmile:
My user name is FeatherWing30497

EDITED TO ADD: I laughed out loud at one of the "wand questions", which was "Are you short for your age?"
My dear Mr Ollivander, I'm short for ANY age! :bigsmile:

Hey there. My wand is a 10 3/4 inch Unicorn Core made out of siliver lime.

For those who are wondering you get sorted in chapter 7.

I just love reading all the extras in all the chapters. this is sooo cool, and yes I'm a geek

kapeluza

If anyone wishes to add me :CauldronPixie14573

kapeluza

Call me a dork but how in the heck do you even get sorted or get a wand?!

kapeluza

Ok nevermind, found it. Is anyone else a little overwhelmed by ALL the information provided?

nerdyandilikeit

You go to Diagon Alley and get sorted in the same chapters Harry Does in the books. It is VERY overwhelming! Sometimes I go through a few things and then go back later. You can skip around from your Gateway.

And being a geek is a requirement for this group

I brewed my first potion sucessfully...now working on spells.

MindyBlack

Gryffindor!!! Wand: Yew, phoenix feather core, 10 in rigid.:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

This is driving me nuts, I've been trying to get into the forbidden corridor for AGES, I'm clicking on each of the spell letters when the circle is at its largest, but however many times I've done it, the last letter drops.

Did other people find this tough? Really can't see where I'm going wrong at all...

EDIT... I've just realised I can move on from the door, I was expecting it to swing open or something, perhaps I did unlock it after all?

At least you figured out to keep clicking the letter, me not so much took awhile and boy did I feel stupid.

Wait till you try potion making... It would try the patience of a saint! :bigsmile:

I'm actually pretty good with potions. I've brwed all but one of the ones we are allowed to brew.

Okay I have a question...I have unlocked all of the signs at the top except the one to the left of Diagon Alley.

Anybody know what that one is and how to unlock it??
