Nahiinnn the round was revealed at 9:30 AM EST, which is 7 PM IST. I'm sorry but I don't see how IST members could be asleep at that time. Are the Ravenclaw IST members all 3 to 5 years old that they are put to bed by 7 or 8?

The whole point of this game is to have fun. You win some, you lose some. Hufflepuffs got a bonus 10 points this round. For all you know, Ravenclaws or Gryffindors or Slytherins could get a bonus 100 points next round. Should Hufflepuffs raise a huff about that then?

Maybe I'll scrap these bonus points altogether given that the repeated complaint from Ravenclaws is timing.

Do you know that both you and Slytherin got the bonus 10 points for First to Send Names? You were off by like 5 seconds, so I awarded both teams the bonus points. Maybe Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors should get angry that they weren't told so they couldn't be first.

I'm sorry, but after seeing 3 pages of Ravenclaws complaining that I didn't say anything about time, I'm pissed. I clearly stated under the announcement "Note: I will change up the bonus points each round. And there are still many other categories of bonus points to be won." because I know it might appear unfair if I hadn't said that.

I'm trying to make it as fun for everyone as possible. I had a long list of surprise bonus points that could be awarded each round, but now I think I will remove them all and just make it the basic points.

I was just making ppl understand about time.. 9.30 am EST is still 6.30 am PST California time. If you would choose afternoon time, IST will be sleeping. Good have bonuses but on a international forum time based one is a bit iffy.

We just questioned where was the bonus mentioned. We didn't realize its a surprise element. I didn't know there were 6 bonuses in one round and thought we lost one grace bonus point. I have no problem with others getting a point. I don't think there is need to get agitated. I didn't know we couldn't question you and your authority.

Just like our emblem highly misunderstood

We had good wizards and witches too people

Heck even Merlin was Slytherin but was he evil?

No he wasnt

We are also like other flawed yes not perfect yes but bad no not always

It feels sad

And the other two houses were also not given the equal importance

Exactly! You know what would have been a great turning point? If Slytherins were given a chance to fight in the final battle. Instead of just being led out, they should have been given a choice. Those who were legally adults should have been allowed to choose. It would have proven once and for all that not all Slytherins are evil.

Look at Peter Pettigrew. He was Gryffindor. Yet such a coward. He turned on his own friends. If Gryffindors are all courageous and strong, then how did he become a Gryffindor?

May be you should have announced our bonus points then . We would have seen their reaction as well . May be our reaction would have been diff too .

We felt disadvantaged and if we can’t even point out without being tagged as complaining all the time then how it’s gonna work ? It surely came as a shocker and are we not allowed to express our disappointment?

none of us dying to create drama . All of us want to have fun .

I agree. We're always shown in the wrong light. Does being ambitious mean a negative thing?

Yeah Puffs weren't given much importance until JK and FB films had to portray in their stand.

(Sorry the Slytherin in me just got a little excited. Back to being lions now😆)

I like these colour comments

Hufflepuff had Zacharias Smith and I want to know WHY?!
