Dueling Club: The Great Pumpkin Pasties Duel: Victory Food Fight! (Term XX, Activity 5)

[flipflop-diva.livejournal.com]

Activity: The Great Pumpkin Pasties Duel: Victory Food Fight!
Points: 10 points for submitting a grid of your character "hiding". 1 points for every guess you make to others. 30 points max
Deadline: 6p CDT//11p UTC Wednesday, July 20
Details: How else to determine the winner of a duel than a food fight? Pick your "hiding spot" and then try and guess others


Neville Longbottom takes his pumpkin pasties veryseriously. One day, he was nibbling happily on a pumpkin pasty in the Great Hall when Harry Potter and Ron Weasley walked past him. Harry made some disparaging remark about the taste of Hogwarts' pumpkin pasties, and Ron laughed. Neville got to his feet, outraged, and waved his pumpkin pasty as he argued with Harry. Finally, Harry drew his wand. But they didn't want to duel here in the Great Hall - too many things could get broken - so they decided to duel over the state of Hogwarts' pumpkin pasties out on the Great Lawn.

Of course, in the five minutes it took them to make it out to the Great Lawn, word was flying all over Hogwarts — and beyond — about what was to take place. Before you could say "Expelliarmus", battle lines were drawn, and each side was determined to make the other side see just how more awesome and assured of victory their chosen dueler was. There were arguments and insults as each side praised their dueler and undermined the other.

But then, suddenly, silence fell over the crowd. All heads turned to the two men in question. Harry raised his wand ....(read about the epic battle here).

Pretty soon, however, it was clear to everyone that the two men were very equal opponents. What to do, what to do? Advice was offered by everyone on both sides of the battle.

All of a sudden, Dumbledore, always the mediator, raised his wand in the air and summoned for quiet. "How else to settle a duel over pumpkin pasties," he said, "then with a food fight?'

(thanks to kissoffools for the scenario)

Okay, everyone. We have followed the Great Pumpkin Pasties Duel for the past three months. Now it's time to pick a winner.

Here is how it will work. Please read carefully so you post in the right spot! Not posting in the right spot will lead to points not counting!

#1: Claim a character in the Claim a Character thread and declare their team allegiance IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE FROM THE LAST ACTIVITY. For those of you who chose a character last activity, you automatically get to have them again.

You can pick anyone you want as long as they are an HP character. Each character can only be claimed once. You can play as soon as you pick a character. You don't have to wait for me to add you to the list, but be careful no one else has chosen your character or it won't count.

When you pick your character, please decide which team (Harry or Neville) they are supporting.

#2: The grid at this post is numbered A-J across the top and 1-10 down the side. Pick ONE square that you want your chosen character to "hide" in. Hide your character by taking a picture of them and inserting it in one of the squares of the grid. (You can do this by using photoshop, drawing a stick figure, using just their head or using their full body. However you want. Just make sure your person is only in one little square.)

Submit your grid and the text box to THE OTHER POST where you got the grid. That post is screened.

#3. Once your grid is posted, come back to this post and make a new thread with your character's name in the subject line. Then go around to other people's threads and guess the square you think they are hiding in (i.e. want to throw food at, since this is a food fight after all).

At the end of the activity, I will count up the number of correct hits and the team (Harry or Neville) with the most hits wins the duel!

RULES
1. Don't tell anyone where your character is hiding
2. You can only make one guess to each person
3. Make sure your guess has a letter and a number (i.e. A5)
4. You can guess the same square for every person if you want. Strategy is up to you.
5. 10 points to post a grid with your hiding spot. 1 points for every guess you make to other people, with a max of 30 points total

Okay, dumb question, and you may still be on holiday (hope it's a good one!) but can we throw food at members of our own team? For example, my claim, Prof. Trelawney is on Team Neville, so should I be throwing food at Cedric Diggory (Team Neville) as well as George Weasley (Team Harry)? Thanks. =)
