Harry Potter // Fan Club

That's why I originally didn't want to be in Gryffindor. The welcome letter is absolutely terrible and wasn't what I would have expected. Just because the books focus on Gryffindor doesn't mean most people truly understand it, the traits, and the characteristics that make up a Gryffindor. Though, Godric Gryffindor wouldn't be mentioned apart from "he's the founder" kind of things. That stuff would go in his own biography page.

I've come to the conclusion that Ms. Rowling's people have forgotten all about me and I will have to register when the place opens to the public in October like the commoner casual fans :(

Well, it's not the one thing that's gonna turn me down. After all we should always keep in our minds that this is still in beta, so by October we'd be getting our worth in information. I guess JKR did a head start on the others because that needed a lot of focus than Gryffindor for the time being.

But it's not just Dumbledore and Gryffindor on there. There's plenty of wizards and witches that have done good in that House.

You're glad not to be in Gryffindor, but shocked to be in Slytherin? :P

Aww, don't worry, you've still got two weeks for it to come in. I know that sounds hard to say when even I was getting frantic and thought that I'd never get mine. Patience is a true virtue!

My second account got in and I'm convinced that this one is more accurate.

My wand: Holly with Dragon Heartstring, 11 1/2 inches, supple.
I was sorted into Gryffindor.

So...which one will you use? Forgot what your other wand was.

I haven't decided yet. I know I'm going to end up deleting one of them because I only want one account for this. I have too many accounts on too many sites to keep track of if I keep them all. I like my wand a lot more and I like the fact that I was sorted into Gryffindor on this account, but I like the fact that I registered on Day 1 on my first account.

I guess people would be lucky that their names are all anonymous, so they'd never be able to connect one account to another and it's the same person.

Ugh, I don't think I'm all up for Pottermore anymore. It was giving me a lot of excitement around the time it was first announced but now, I'm quite bored of it already despite not having experienced it yet. ):

It would be way too crowded @~@ And all those brothers...

I would like to be a Weasley, yes! It has been an ever fantasy of mine to be called a Weasley! I do love being in quite a big family, having and especially having twin brothers! Oh god, I've been wishing for a twin sibling ever since the beginning of time!

I would not like being a Weasley. :( I don't think I'd manage as well with a ton of siblings and I... kind of like being upper middle class, thank you. 8D;

(Also I got into Pottermore last week, guys! Couldn't explore it much until yesterday due to no internet but I got into Ravenclaw which was what I figured I would get into. n_n)

I suppose you do get bored of it once you're done exploring the book. I'll keep my patience as long as I can.

Still no email from Pottermore - I think I've just totally given up at this point. Oh well, I may not even bother with Pottermore at all - Patchisou linked me to that spoiler blog on MSN anyway so I'll just go on that and find out all the cool things I want to know.

Anyway, I've posted another Potter thread in Culture & Media which you should all check out and reply to! I was going to ask the questions here, but I think it fits better there where more people have access to it because it's about something larger and broader than Harry Potter as well.

Yeah, the feedback thing is *really* annoying. I can't remember what I thought of before, but it was stuff like potions glitch sometimes, but not all the time, or being able to reply to comments and the other person gets a notification, and stuff like that.

I'm not going to make another account when October rolls by. I'm perfectly happy where I am. I wish I could join my compatriots and start racking up points though.

Join?

What house are you in?: Hufflepuff. I don't know what any of the other houses are like on Pottermore, but I absolutely love mine.
Wand description (Wood, Length, Core): Sycamore, 9 3/4" in length, with a dragon heartstring core.
Sunshine daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat...: Yellow!

Does anyone know if they're still sending out emails?
