    OK - I THINK THE FAIREST WAY TO ADD UP POINTS IS TO ADD UP ALL THE MEMBERS WEIGHTS, THEN FIGURE OUT THE TOTAL PERCENTAGE LOST FOR THE GROUP. That is the only way to make it fair since the groups are bound to be uneven at some point. I put it in caps to make sure everyone sees it. :)

    I think that's a great plan.

    Now I totally want to go watch one of the HP movies. I sense a very unproductive day coming on.

    I am currently in the midst of writing my thesis and of course, it's on Harry Potter. (I'm a Children's Literature major so that should explain it!) I'm so glad to now have all of your lovely brains to pick about the books and certain themes that I'm discussing in my thesis! :drinker:

    Hey Team!

    So when we report on Sunday for weight loss do we say our starting weight of the competition too?
    And I'm really sorry team if I don't lose anything, I seem to have hit a plateau :angry:

    Feel free to add me!! :wink:

    OH! And where do I go to update my ticker. I can't see where to go to ADD the Gryffndor shield, I just see how to change the standard ticker.

    We have been adding the shields to our signature - just paste the link to the picture you want surrounded by and:) To update your ticker the way I know how to do it is to go to your profile and click personalize your ticker...anyone know a better way? or does it update by itself?

    oops..that didnt work...surround the link to the picture you want with [ img ] and [ /img ] but take out the spaces. :) just paste it into your signature and it should come up.

    Maybe you just needed the HP challenge to help you bust through. Be a brave and strong Gryffindor! ;)
