I was torn between

“I don’t care, as long as I get to buy it one day.”

and “Not soon enough!”

But I chose I don’t care. I can always re-read the other HP books until her next book is published. :)

MM, Herbert is rather good at hiding in dark corners for his size, isn’t he?

mwahaha…evil grin

I was so excited at seeing the new poll which meant the problem was fixed that I forgot to vote. I voted for not soon enough. Lol

And my auto filling email has been corrected by itself. All the mess up ones I did last night by typing my answer in the address box has been corrected. We will see how many times I do this today. I better have my address in front of me this time. lol

MM, Herbert is flapping his wings enticingly and making cooing ostrich noises at you.

I think him continuing to eat your avatars is a sign of attraction…since you don’t have plumage for him to groom or anything…

I voted for “Middle of next year”. Just that with editing and all, I figure it will take that long. ;)

Thank you Cool Grandma, you always seem to get results. ;)

Do you think they let us hang for so long on the last poll just so they could find out what the total capacity for any comments section would be?

We are a lot more prolific than the news article comments, so we make a better “test group” for such things.

I am dreadng the day that they talk about the poll comments on Pottercast. if they ever do mention our little corner, we will get a whole lot of strange people for a couple of weeks. That will make playing a lot more difficult. ;)

This was my only pop in until I finish my errands and pay bills. I should get back rather late this evening. Have fun! ;)

Bbl. ;)

I voted for I do not care….

Hi Harriett! I haven’t talked to you in a while. How have you been?

I voted for early next year. I went with something practical, I guess. I’m ashamed to admit that my first inclination was to vote for it’s Harry and only Harry for me, but I think that’s just because I’m still bitter that there won’t be any more books. I think the fact that the series is over is just starting to hit me…

Hi everyone!

I’m so pleased to see Leaky is up and running again!

Thankyou CoolG and all you lovely Leaky technical people!

Is the game still on? I will be in and out for a bit, but if that is OK, can I play for Hufflepuff please!

Yay! Other people are showing up!

Good evening!

I voted for middle next year. Jo said she is happy to write without deadlines, so she’ll take her time.

The sad thing about the new poll: I can’t catch up, but I doubt I would have made it through 30 pages in detail anyway, lol. I’ll better catch up on CC instead.

Thanks CoolG for asking Leaky to fix the polls!

Laura it was my first inclination to vote for “only Harry”, too, lol. And for the same reasons. But I can understand that she does want to leave that behind. And we had some sequels from other books, where the author was pressured into writing them. And they were not really good, mostly. So yes, lets see what else Jo has in store.

I’ll be more or less lurking for Ravenclaw again. I still have things to do, so won’t stick to my computer. But I am no good at this anyway, lol.

Hi forgetmenot! Glad I’m not the only one who really wanted that option ;)

Here’s the link for the last post if you want to try to catch up: http://the-leaky-cauldron.org/2008/1/15/deathly-hallows-as-two-films/text_comments/1 CC should keep you busy, though.

MM, hopefully more people will show up soon! Or Gryffindor will win by forfeit!

forgetmenot

Thank you Laura! I’ll see when I’ll have time to catch up on the 30 or more pages, lol.

About the poll. I guess there are more people who’d rather want more Harry or stories that are taken from that world at least. But if there would be an option to get her writing more about it, then yes, I’d still choose that option. :-)

Hey, Laura! I am here, too and I am in Ravenclaw. Even if I don’t know much about these quotes, lol!

Yay! Forgetmenot! I wasn’t sure if you were going to play or just lurk! Yay for playing!

I discovered last night that I’ better at the HP quotes anyways! (which surprised me greatly)

Is there anyone here from Slytherin??

I know that ASTI said she would play for Hufflepuff!

Posted by MM on March 02, 2008, 07:21 PM report to moderator

As long as someone is here for Sllytherin it should be OK.

Unless Cool G would like to play for Slytherin or Hufflepuff. LOL

I will be in and out though. I hope I won’t miss too much.

Hey since I’m not a great help, I’m willing to play for Slytherin until someone arrives.
