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??
It's been locked since the beginning. No one knows what it is yet, unfortunately.0 -

Cool! I haven't heard much about that, but I'll be excited if it happens that way! The Pottermore staff have changed their minds so many times already, it's hard to say.

I'm a beta user (Ravenclaw, what up) but I'm discovering that Pottermore is a little bit cooler now that it's open to the public. I'm finding more items (I'm not sure if I missed them or if they are newly added) and potions are trillions of times easier. Nobody wants to wait 85 minutes to brew Sleeping Draught. I'm DYING for Book 2 to open, as well as the shops in Diagon Alley. I'm also pretty curious about what's in Knockturn Alley. I finished Book 1 in like a day and a half.

That's cool! It's been so long since I've been through it in the first place, I'm tempted to start from the beginning and see if there's new stuff now! Also, Ravenclaw beta represent!

Well I've thought about it, and I am choosing Gryffindor. Harry has words with Professor Dumbledore about the sorting hat, and Harry said he was only in Gryffindor because he asked to be there and Dumbledore replies with: “Exactly. Which makes you very different from Voldemort. It’s not our abilities that show what we truly are, Harry. It’s our choices.“
I hope no one hates me with my choice or reasoning :sad:
I totally understand being upset because you so totally believe yourself to be one House. It would be silly to be mad, but it strikes me that this quote applies EVEN MORE to you being sorted into Slytherin. Gryffindor and Slytherin abilities are similar, but you could choose not to follow the negative stereotypes.
I just think this is a very interesting conversation. I know lots of people got upset about their sorting, but I like to think even the sorting hat didn't get it perfectly every time (Dumbledore does say he thinks they sort too early). And our choices are what make our Houses good or bad for us. It's fun to play along, but it's also not a perfect system. I think it's VERY close to what a sorting would be like, but since it's a computer and not magic, there will be glitches.
In this situation, the most important thing is you're having fun, whatever that means to you.0 -

Sweetie, this topic is for discussion. If no one agrees with you, it doesn't matter. All that matters for YOU is that YOU are ok with the choice you make. I never intended to make you do one thing or another, only to maybe give you another perspective for the sake of discussion. 0 -

Your wand is the long white thing that lays behind your ingrediants. Just click on it and it will wave. I usually go to the right of all my ingrediants and click where it sticks out. Good luck.0 -

My sister (QuestCat15732) got sorted into Slytherin. She was very upset because she didn't want to be in Syltherin. But she is having fun and you will too if you let yourself.0 -
Hello, I am signed up in Pottermore. My username is QuillBlade28043. Feel free to friend me! I've been sorted into Ravenclaw (dream come true) and have completed the first book. I've successfully brewed a few potions, although my last one was a disaster that destroyed my copper cauldron. I'm pretty good at the spells though.
Of course this awesome journey into the backstories of Harry Potter were very enjoyable to me, particularly the story of Professor McGonagall. Of course this inspired me to get into the story all over again. I just finished reading the entire series last year, so I opted to watch all the movies. I'm on the Dealthy Hallows Pt. 2 (which I will finish tonight). I'm certain that I will never grow tired of the world of Harry Potter.
If only JK Rowling would release some of the textbooks like 'Hogwarts A History', I would just be in pure heaven. I'm considering buying some Ravenclaw swag from www.noblecollection.com in celebration of my sorting!0 -

Look at Alivans.com, too! They have wands and all sorts of stuff. They're also working on making some of the Wands from Pottermore sometime in the future, so that will be cool.
You can look up Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and she's working on a Harry Potter encyclopedia that will have extra character info and things like that. I really wish she'd write Hogwarts, A History and I'd be content. 0 -

Because all of you are such awesome people, I'm going to take your advice and give Slytherin a try! (if I'm not having fun I'll change it up later on), but for now let the good times roll!

Why is Wizard's Duel so freakin' hard?? I've only won three, and I've gotten my witch butt kicked over and over. I practice the spells but they never seem to do well even when I do them perfectly. How are people getting like 140 spell potency? Does anyone know which spells are the most potent?0

Full Body-Bind is the best spell to use in dueling it seems. It takes practice (for me anyway), duel against your house to practice the spell. A score over 140 is good, the highest I've managed is 143.
I think brewing potions is far harder :sad:0 -

In case you are interested they have released the first four chapters of Chamber of Secrets. It is more interactive and you have to complete challenges every now and then to move on.
Oh and slytherin won the first house cup but Gryffndore wasn't too far behind.0
