There is the ranking of Top 6 Defence Against The Dark Arts Teachers, The number 1 means the Best, While the number 6 means the worst.

List:

*1. Remus Lupin - Because He is Affable, Friendly, Polite, Wise, Intelligent, Reasonable and Kind-Hearted Gentleman, Despite He is Were-Wolf.
*2. Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody - Because He is Cool and Awesome in his own way, He reminds me of Doctor N.Gin from Crash Bandicoot Video Games.
*3. Severus Snape - He is maybe a Snarky, Sarcastic, Stoic, Icy and Cold Person on the Outside, But He can be a Good Person on the Inside.
*4. Gilderoy Lockhart - Because He is Vain, Narcissistic, Over-Confident, Cocky and Foppish Showboat, But He is very Hilarious.
*5. Quirinus Quirrell - Because He is Shy, Meek, Timid and Nervous, But He is a Plot-Twist Villain.
*6. Dolores Umbridge - Because She is a Monstrous and Sadistic Jerk without any Sympathetic, Reasonable, Redeemable and Positive Qualities.

Well done to Dragonsmemory who thoroughly deserved to win the Fan of the Week Contest a few weeks back. I'm really sorry for the late response to the contest-I take the full blame!

Why do you think you won?

Probably because of the picture

Do you think you deserved to win it and if not, who did?

In all honesty, I can't say for sure


Who did you vote for?

Myself


Who's the biggest Harry Potter fan you know apart from yourself?

That's ahard one. In all honesty, I've never met anyone as big a fan as me. The closest anyone has ever come is my cousin Adrienne


How long has Harry Potter been in your life...

this is a song that I wrote, and it describes how Snape felt when he found Lily, dead, in her home. Btw, the parts in brackets are the chorus,and I will only type the chorus one time. ENJOY:

I found you lying on the floor,
dead
Had to hold my heart higher than my
head
[c]I took you in my arms and said
[h]Always, always
[o]I'll always love you
[r]Always, always
[u]After all this time
[s]Still wish you were mine
The rat did what his master said
Very next day, I found you dead
(chorus)
He only wanted the boy,
You stood in his way
He played with you like a toy
And you died that day
(chorus)
'whisper' always
Okay I am a Harry and Hermione shipper. I like them together. I still love the author and i still like Ginny. I never really cared for Ron because of the way he treated Harry. Anyways... I concluded she could put anyone (minus Cho) with Harry and he is a good match with them. Harry is just one of those guys. He has a great heart. If Harry couldn't be with Hermione i wish it was with Luna. But in the books i can see that he is good for Ginny. I dont hate her. I dont mind her. I just dont like that fangirl kinda love. well my friend and me had a argument over this and i wouldn't budge. But i do think it is crazy to hate an amazing author for a pairing.

Calypso's POV

Calypso ran to the Grand hall and placed her ear to the door. Nothing. 'That's not good' she thought. 'If no ones here, then there might be a battle going on........ Shit. Dementry.' He was her fathers right hand man, just as committed as her father was. She ran back to the slytherin common rooms, but on the way she ran into-almost literally- Madame Pomfry. She gasped and clamped her on the shoulders.

"Calypso! Were have you been! I have been looking all over for you!". The older woman shrieked.

"Madame, were is everyone? The hall is perfectly empty.". Calypo gasped.

"Why, a lot...

Yep.You HP fans know the moment Im talking about.You know,that moment when Hedwig's Theme played for the last time,when you wanted to cry and cheer,scream and weep at the same time...that time you knew it was ending yet refused to accept it.That moment,when all the boundaries vanished,when we all rose together from different places,from different countries,we all came together,clapping,smiling and crying at the same time.That was the moment when we found that,nothing has really changed,despite everything that has.Amidst the thunderous applause and the shouts and cries in the theater all,we knew that there has never been anything like Harry Potter.And there never will be..and that the oak doors of Hogwarts will always swing open to us in welcome...
WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU,HARRY...

1)Hug him. Say you were on strict instructions from Dumbledore to do it.

2)Make a voodoo doll of Harry Potter. Push pins into it in class and smile knowingly at Snape.

3)Scatter rose-petals in front of him wherever he goes.

4)Shout '10 points from Professor Snape!' at random moments.

5)Hide your face with your hands in class. When he approaches remove them and shout 'Peek-a-boo!'

6)Introduce him with the words "Here is a man who not only has a brilliant mind and a wonderful wit, but can also sing.'

7)Get a hose. Corner him. Spray him down. Run. (this one is my FAVORITE!)

8)Dress like him and dye your...

Chapter 2

Once Hermione was finished with cleaning Snape’s face, they decided to bring him back to the castle for a proper burial. They could not let him there, abandoning him like this after all he had done for them. He still had his black school robe on. They wrapped him in carefully, feeling respect for him like they had never felt before. Hermione took the Potions Master’s wand with her, putting it in her sleeve.

With a Levitation Charm, they brought him back to the castle, but not through the secret passageway this time. It would take more time but it would be easier and more dignified...

Thank You J.K. Rowling for writing Harry Potter, one of the best books I have ever read. Though I didn't grow up with HP (and I envy those who did) I am still grateful for deciding to read the book.

Thank You to the movie cast of the HP movies. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Ruper Grint, Tom Felton, Alan Rickman and the others for helping in bringing the HP story to life.

When I wtached Part 2, there were scenes that made me wanna stand up and scream "Hell yeah!" especially when they were preparing for the Battle of Hogwarts. But I did tear up when I saw Fred, Tonks and Lupin dead. And I tried...

Chapter One

Outside the Ravenclaw common room I saw Fred and George Weasley waiting for me.
I am Scarlet, I'm a metamorphagus that has changed her appearance so many times to look prettier I have forgotten all my true features. At the moment I have dark scarlet hair and light blue eyes.
The twins and I walked down to breakfast where we discussed the rumor of Harry putting his name in the Goblet of Fire. Sometimes they joke around so much that I can never tell whether they're serious anymore. They were discussing that the were going to begin taking bets on whether he would survive or not, and...

I have a few friends that are Percy Jackson fanatics and we were discussing who was more evil that day, Kronos or Voldemort. I obiously chose Voldemort and all my other friends chose Kronos. Lost cause, right?
Anyway, one of my friends, she said that Kronos ate his children and Voldemort did not.
Oh yeah? Voldemort doesn't even understand love to marry someone in the first place or he would have murdered his child cold-blood the momend he/she was born. Eh?
What do you think?
The discussion didn't go on very long because, well, we found better things to talk about.

Post you note and you opinion on who you think is eviller (is that a word, I think so...) Kronos or Voldemort.

A/N It really helps if you know Greek Mytholody
Harry woke with a start as Teddy’s cries pierced the small room. He groggily climbed out of the warm bed and stumbled over to the bassinet by the window. In the moonlight he could see that Teddy’s hair was bright pink. Chuckling to himself, he lifted the baby out of the crib and started over to the rocking chair.
He fed Teddy some warm milk.He stopped crying. Harry smiled,and Teddy smiled back.Harry put him back in the crib.Instantly Teddy fell asleep.

General Mistakes

Book 7 Mistakes

* The Elder Wand was supposed to be unbeatable, but Dumbledore defeats Grindlewald to win it.


* In chapter nine, Hermione, Ron, and Harry escape the Burrow to Tottenham Court Road where they are followed to a small, shabby cafe by two Death Eaters. The Death Eaters are hit by spells by Harry and Hermione and they have to decide what to do with them. Harry suggests they just wipe their memories, and Hermione says she's never done this. BUT earlier in chapter six Hermione explains that she has modified her parents' memories and sent them to Australia to keep them safe.

Book 4 Mistakes
NOTE: Many of these book mistakes were corrected in later versions, so the mistake may not appear in your HP book.
* On page 23 of the American version of Goblet of Fire, when Harry is writing to Sirius about the pain in his scar, it says he was "marveling at the fact that he hadn't thought of Sirius straight away. But then, perhaps it wasn't so surprising -- after all, he had only found out that Sirius was his godfather two months ago." Harry actually found out Sirius was his godfather about eight months before, on that day in the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade. Thanks, Audrey!...

"So what do you want to do today?" asked Snape to Lily. They were walking down an empty corridor on a sunny Sunday afternoon. "I don't know whatever you want" replied Lily. I wish we could, thought Snape, for he wanted to kiss her so badly. Kiss you thought Lily at the same time. They walked for a minute the only sound was their footsteps. Then James, Sirius, and Lupin turned the corner. "Oh great" muttered Snape. "Look guys, it's Snivellus and Lily. Why is a beauty like you friends with a beast like him" James almost yelled. "Because he's not a jerk like you," Lily said calmly back to him....

The three soon find out Sapphire's secret.

The gytrashes, fire crabs, and imps are all from the videogames and they are what I mean by the dementor's "friends". So far, I've only seen them in the Chamber of Secrets game for Playstation 2. I also made 5 gytrashes on The Sims 2 Pets. :P

Yeah, I was almost finished with Prisoner of Azkaban (book), but the crazy school librarians came after me. D: WHYYY CRAZY SCHOOL LIBRARIANS, WHYYYYYYY!?
