Transfiguration Club: Quiz Time!!

[omfgerbear.livejournal.com]

So I hope everyone's done reading the required essay I gave in this post, because it's quiz time!!

I'm sorry if it's a bit late.. haha. School is killing me, and it's the term's only been through with one week. Haha. I hate being a Stat major.

MAJOR EDIT: Hey, guys, Jack (xenylamine) has just pointed out that I am not allowed to post Bonus Points without prior approval. I thought I had approved it, but I apparently hadn't. So there. XD That being said, the bonus word-find is now just for fun. :( Anyway, nobody's going to be negatively affected except for my reputation... jk. I'm still offering more LolCats for bonuses, though! :3

Anyway, here's the little activity info box:

~TERM X ACTIVITY 1~
QUIZ CHALLENGE - VANISHING MAGIC
Activity Description: You must have first read Steve Vander Ark of HPLexicon's essay on Vanishing Magic and Invisibility, which you can find here. You will now have a quiz worth ten points, and the questions will be posted below.
Mechanics: Just answer the quiz I'll put in below. :) To be able to place in the top three, you'd have to get ALL the questions right. Don't worry, though: it's quite easy... if you read the article.
Points: 1st/2nd/3rd gets 50/40/20 points each, while the rest of the participants get the number of points they get right in the quiz. ^_^
EXTRA POINTS: Remember, I will be doling out an extra two points for every Transfiguration book purchased from hh_diagon! ^_^ These include the following: A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration, Intermediate Transfiguration, A Guide to Advanced Transfiguration, The Invisible Book, and Theories of Transsubstantial Transfiguration. Phew! Those titles were damnedly long. XD
Schedule:Quiz answers will be accepted from today, January 11, Friday up to January 16, Wednesday at around 5:30PM Philippine Standard Time (+0800GMT). I assure you, I will strictly follow this schedule. :)

So there you have it! Any questions should be posted as a comment to this entry! ^^

The questions and bonus word-search are below the cut.


Transfiguration Club Quiz: Invisibility and Vanishing Spells

1.) Which do Fred and George Weasley's Headless Hats use: Invisibility or Vanishing?
2.) What are the origins for the Vanishing Spell's incantation?
3.) This large bird, thought to be extinct by Muggles, actually has the ability to Vanish at will.
4.) This magical creature is usually Invisible, except when the person who sees is had previously "seen death".
5.) Name three modes of transport which use Vanishing Magic. (3pts)
6.) This book, which can hardly be found in the Hogwarts Library, contains thorough discussions on Invisibility. This book can also be purchased from hh_diagon for an extra two points if you're a Transfiguration Club member. ;)
7.) Montague, a Hogwarts student who fell into a Vanishing Cabinet, ended up here after a few weeks.
8.) Harry Potter often wonders whether his Invisibility Cloak works on this particularly infamous animal.


And your bonus word search...


There are just five words there, and I've made it hard since it's supposed to be a bonus thing. XD I think you'll enjoy doing this. There are a lot of real non-transfiguration word there, so have fun! XD This does not award points, but I'm thinking of something in the future that can be done with this... hmm.. Suggest, anyone?

And here's a bonus Invisibility LOLCat since I just can't help it:


And for inspiration...




And there you have it! ^^

Gerry, I can't find aaaanything on that final question. The only thing I can think of is if you're looking for a mouse because it talks about them being harder than the snails. Can you possibly word that one a little more clearly?

O, hai! XD Sorry, LolCats have taken my brain.

Anyway, it's not in the essay, but I thought the answer was obvious... oh, well. Clarification time! XD

Here's the clarified question:
"When Harry uses the Invisibility Cloak while in Hogwarts, he often comes across this particularly infamous animal, who apparently stares at him. Thus, Harry wonders whether the Cloak can actually work on it."

Clear enough?

Erm... besides, the answer to Number 4 isn't in the essay, either. :3

((And everyone else seems to have gotten the last one.))

[heartzablaze.livejournal.com]

I have to say.. ONLY after your clarification in the comments lol

[omfgerbear.livejournal.com]

Hello! ^^

You've gotten question 8 wrong. I've clarified the question as a reply to kecchin's comment, just in case you didn't get it the last time. :)

Also, I need to see the image for the bonus puzzle. You can put it in Microsoft Paint or whatever image editing program you have, and then highlight the words. :)

Gerry, I hope you're not giving out points for the word search since it wasn't approved by Sas. It's fine if it's bonus without any points, but if it's for points, you need to make it not for points. Also, please clarify in the post that it isn't for points.

Erm... okay then. *faels again*

Can I get it approved late? If not, then I can clarify. :)

Anyway, thanks for the clarification. I'm so sorry again. ^^

[xenylamine.livejournal.com]

No, I'm sorry, you can't... please clarify that it will not be for points.

That's all right, I'm just here to keep order. ^^

P.S. Since you've already posted the word search, you can't use it again... >_>

[omfgerbear.livejournal.com]

Oh, of course, of course, Jack. :)

I'm thinking much more deviously than that. I'm not predictable.

Bwhahaahahahahaha!

Sorry... I just won humongously at monopoly against people at least three years my senior. XD

[omfgerbear.livejournal.com]

Well, they wouldn't exactly come from the essay or else if would be a giveaway. :) XD

Anyway, ^^

Hello there! You got the last question wrong, dear. :) If you needed extra clarification, you can see some of the other unscreened comments here. :)

[omfgerbear.livejournal.com]

No need to repost them all, dear. :3
