All righty, I spent last night going around updating a few things that need to be. First off, I've updated the website so check that out. JK's secret door has been opened again!

Registration Office:
The Registration Office has been updated. So if you posted to register an ability or something, I've replied. So please read my post and act accordingly. Also, the Celebrity Registration has been updated as well. :)o

Signature Guidelines:
Also, I'm in the process of creating new Signature Guidelines. It's been expressed that some signatures are a bit too long, so I'm working on coming with some new rules that should make everyone happy. ^_^

End of Term/House Points:
Next up, the end of term was in November, but because of my moving situation, I totlaly missed it. SO the end of term is to be annouced. As you might have noticed, the house points have been updated. This is just to give everyone an idea of where each house stands. I still have a LOT more points to calculate so the point totals right now are subject to change.

IF you'd like to earn your house some easy points, I have an opportunity for you. Our website is becoming very popular these days (I'm getting a lot of e-mails from other websites, wanting to affiliate with us) I think one way to promote to site and forums is to show everyone how active we are. Therefore, if you go to the website and post a comment, I will award your house 5 points. This is for EVERY comment you post. Now don't go to news on the 4th and 5th pages, let's stick to the current news on the main site. So the more comments you post, the more points you earn for your house. You'll be helping your house and this website both out at the same time. Easy points!

Jobs:
Lastly, I've already told a few, but I'm going to be handing out a few jobs around here, from those who signed up in the job listings. There's plenty to do around here, and even if you do not want an offical "job" you can still have some type of responsiblity around here. There's always creating a club and keeping that active, a job in diagon alley, or working on the newspaper. Just wanted to throw out some ideas for everyone.

Also, I've totally tried, but with the website and forums, I have a lot to do. So, if anyone wants to take on the responsiblity of writing the LC Newsletter, that would be great.

That's it for now. But plenty more on the way. :naughty:

. . .so much time spent making these updates..

. . .and no one has anything to say? :(

I was getting there, keep your shirt on!!!

Anywho, it all sounds great. I even posted a comment on the website. Heheheheh.....

Happy?

LC Newsletter? Well I am always eager to help, as usual. :P And thank you Emilie, 5 points for us smart Ravenclaws! B)

Sorry, I'm being thick... where do we post comments on the website. You have to spell it out for us oldies you know!

PS. have you got any jobs for Luddites with half a brain?

What is JK's secret door? * Runs to check registration board!

Sounds great Rogue! Scarlett JKR's secret door is on her official website. Here's the link : http://www.jkrowling.com/en

Once there, if there is not a do not disturb sign on the door, click on the door handle. It will open and you'll see a piece of paper with the Dark Mark on it. Click it and it will show you something interesting. IF the door has a do not disturb sign on it, then click on the fourth chime in the windchime and then go to the hourglass and click on the handle that turns it. When the actual hourglass lights up with pretty blue lights, you'll know you did it right. Click on the lit up hourglass and you'll see the day change and the do not disturb sign disappear. Then you can click on the door knob and it will open up. :)

rogue, i swear I tried commenting, but for the life of me I can't get it to work...I keep getting yelled at about the characters from the security thing :(

Thanks Rogue, but I also tried to post a comment on the website. And like Sailorleo, I also got a responce twice about the security thing. :rolleyes:

You guys are lucky. My computer wont even let me SEE the website. :cry: We all know that I'd be there everyday if it meant more points for Gryffy. :(

Yep, I am. Thank. 5 points to Ravenclaw.

All righty, here's how you post a comment. First off, look to where the date is and you will see a link that says "Comments" like here:



Clck that and you go to a page where you get to write your comments and post the Security Code. Like this:



Make sure that you type in the security code exactly the way it appears. If all the letters are CAPS, make sure you type it in that way. Also, make sure you put your name because it won't prcoess it unless a name is given.

I just tried it and it worked for me, so the system is working. TIP: Before pressing the "Add My Comment" button, copy your comments so in case it doesn't work, yo uwon't have to try and write it all over again. Just a tip. Hope this works. Let me know if you experience anymore problems.

i tried all that just now, and it's still not working @.@

*grumbles* I hate technology....*beats rock and sharp rock together*

edit: after a cunning fight i was able to outsmart the system, by having my nickname as Leo instead of Leona with my email addy, but when I tried repeating this maneuver, I got shot down...The force is truly strong with your website Rogue...*walks off to do battle once more*

WOW Hufflepuff is winning again . . . I'm actually surprised. How'd that happen . . . I wasn't aware we had that many active members. I think we got like three . . . :huh:

Ditto.
I came on one morning and saw the points. I was sort of like "Oh look, Hufflepuff has over 800 points... La di da. Wait, what?!" Oh well.

I was wondering same thing about Hufflepuff being in the lead, but I didn't think it would be very classy of me to say. But since you guys are just as baffled all I have to say is: lol. Good luck to all the houses. When one of us wins, we all do.

Well thank you all for popping this badger's bubble. :P

YOu couldn't tell that there are not many of your kind, wandering the halls around here. Didn't you notice a distinct lack of yellow?

We're going for quality, not quantity. :P

You tell 'em, Twi :D

Yeah HUFFLEPUFF FOR THE WIN! We may be few but we're always betterer then that average Gryff or Slyth or that other house :P

It's only cos we feel sorry for you that we're letting you win! muhahahaha :naughty:

Oh yes of coarse . . . I think our record of the only house who have actually won the house cup kinda makes that seem a little silly :P

But still seriously . . . where did we get all the points from. :mellow:

easy your house does more out side thecommon room than slytherin.

oh...snap....hang on.....what if those are last years points? *goes to investigate*

We had more point then thast last year though :mellow:

Why complain when we're in the lead? Who cares where we got the points from?! :D

Hmm good point . . . ok back to the bragging

NA NA NA NA NAAA NAAAAAA :P

Who are you kidding Dusty? We don't do JACK in the common room anymore. Nobody updates...

<<Currently Listening to: "The Journey" by FatBoy Slim feat Lateef>>

i hate to sound like a newbie, but what is the common room?

We have a common room in the Slytherin dungeon for posting communal threads in - you mean we're one up on the Gryffyz????! ZOMG!! :tongue:

LoL. Even we have a Common Room!
Haha. We've got a Common Room and we have more points than the rest of you :P

Oh a Common Room. Yeah we have that in Gryffy Tower. We have all kinds of stuff up there. I just never realised you got points for posting there. We actually have active dorm rooms. I hear that's pretty special.

You don't get points for posting in your common room . . . :mellow:

Shonk's right, Scarlett. And we also have active dorms.
