hh_clubs | History of Magic: Where's Binns? (Term XX, Activity #08)

Activity: Where's Binns?
Points: Participation Only: 1 point per clue found, 10 points for solving the final prompt. Maximum of 20 points
Deadline: Submit by Tuesday, August 30th @ 23:59 UTC (timezone converter).
Details: Oh no! Professor Binns has been kidnapped! Addmitedly the criminals were quite brilliant being able to kidnap a ghost, but not brilliant enough: They left footsteps. Follow these steps and you will surely find your teacher!

-Clues are only hidden in this community, but they can be found everywhere. Every month, every year, every club.
-Each clue will tell you where to look to find the next one, although, of course, it won't tell you the exact post.
-Use this link to look by date. Just change the 08 to the correct month and the 2011 to the correct year!
-Clues are hidden in a new comment by me,

flyingharmony. Some may be found in collapsed threads.
-Submit the links to the clues by using the textbox below. Clues are numbered so you don't get confused.
-Of course you're welcome to edit your entries and add links as often as you'd like within the deadline!
-You don't have to, but you will get ten additional points if you solve the final prompt.
-Whenever a clue says "Last year", we're counting the year the current clue is hidden in. e.g. if you find Clue 5 in 2009 telling you to look for Clue 6 in a post last year, we're talking about 2008.

The first Clue: You decided to take the dare and follow the footsteps to find Professor Binns. It looks like the kidnappers are traveling through time! They seem to be particularly interested in a very personal activity taking place in January last year...

You can't understand today without a look at the past. Join History of Magic today!

Positive - I double checked and now check for a third time. It's unscreened and on the place described in clue one. :)

No, I read the directions wrong. I thought it was only for this club. Sorry! ^^;

Haha, don't worry bb! :D

I think your clue Nr.8 (which is in 2009) is wrong because its says one year back but that would be 2008 and not 2007 where the next clue actually is?

Yup, you're right, it's in 2007, I've fixed it now. Sorry for that! And thanks for pointing it out!

Completely my fault on this - it's not in 2008 but in 2007. I've fixed it now, sorry! And thank you for pointing it out!

No worries! :3 Thanks for letting me know!! :) :)

(in the meantime I'm finding clues for other activities, so it was well worth it! ;D)

xD that happened to me during the Hogsmeade Scavenger Hunt - all of a sudden I found a Quidditch clue. It's always fun finding foreign clues :D

Unfortunately, I have to say yes. You should provide all links to the clues so I know that you've actually found them, because technically you could just find the following clues by accident and not by following the instructions from the previous ones (like it happened to me more than once). It'll only be one point less, though, so really not a big thing :)
Also, you're always welcome to edit your post and add the missing link(s) to it if you like!

xD Don't worry, that could've exactly happened to me as well - too many tabs just cause some confusion from time to time!

You're not blind, I was just too vague... It should be more clear now! :)

xD I'm glad you've found it - I really should've made it more clear!

You're right, it's not in September - go back to the clue, I've made it more clear now :)

Now it's my turn to be the blind one :P

Are you sure there is a path in the maze? At the opening on the top I've drawn in every which way I can go and constantly run in to a dead end.

If you say there's a path I'll keep looking though.

Completely sure bb :)
