HiH Clubs

Activity Name: A Retroactive Retroactivity
Points: Repetitive Activity: Participation & Additional comments: 2pts. 30pts limit
Details: Can you anticipate something you haven't even read yet? The notorious ABC-sentence story game with a twist.

The activity is over! Thank you to all who took part! Let's just jump straight to the points:

( Here we go! )

GRYFFINDOR: 176 points
HUFFLEPUFF: 82 points
RAVENCLAW: 46 points
SLYTHERIN: 34 points

Gryffindor take an emphatic win! Get it lions!

I'm pretty sure this is accurate, but let me know if I'm wrong. Also, once I've done some formatting, And just for kicks, I've posted the story itself in the gap below! How nifty is that, eh? :)


EDIT: Want to read the story we wrote? It's right here:

Thanks for taking part! The next Divination activity is already up! Go forth and post! Please? ;__;

Hi guys!

This is a reminder that the Crystal Ball Gazing activity ends in 20 hours or so. It's potentially easy points despite photobucket being a stubborn asshole despite due configurations *fume*. Can you see magic eye pics? Failing that, can you deduce any of the objects from the not-so-subtle-and-occasionally-utterly-tenuous clues provided?

Participation thus far is very low. I appreciate it's Zombie Jesus Weekend, but if you've got the Sight, it can be quite easy to rack points up.

Try it out!

Activity: The Year of the Snake
Points: Repetitive activity: 2pts per comment. 30pts limit.
Details: 新年快乐! 恭喜发财! 多余汉字! It's Chinese New Year, and we want to celebrate the Eastern Zodiac! On a selection of 500x500 images, adorn new graphics to make a beautiful mural for all to enjoy!


Aaaand my internet has returned. Zing.

I'll cut straight to the results: the collages we made are certainly worth a gander!

( Results! )

Hopefully when normalicy returns, so will an activity. I'd better get cracking on this scattegories game from Hogsmeade now.....

Eek, so.

This actually ended last night, but due to a foolish mix of forseen circumstances (snow; being out of town for a week) leading on to unforseen circumstances (me being marooned at work overnight OH GOD KILL ME NOW) I was neither able to close this properly nor give a shout of warning that this was due.

Because of this, extension to 20th January, @ 11:59PM UTC. There's still plenty of time to max out, and ample capacity to do so. So yeah, you'll have almost a day and a half from now, basically. :)

Yep, there we go. *watches new year resolution whizz out the window* I'm gonna get some sleep; you guys enjoy this o/

Activity Name: Minority Reports
Points: 1st/2nd/3rd/Participation Only: 50/40/30/10 points.
Details: This game will combine the two divinationy skills of predicting trends and influencing social conventions. Forsee the outcome of 10 threads on what you believe will be the LEAST favoured outcome each time. 10 pts for taking part in all ten threads, with placement for the greatest accuracy.


Aaand the results are in!

It was a tough battle, but we've finally worked through your votes, and can I just say thank you for the wonderful turnout from all houses? I've wanted to do a game like this for a few terms now, so the fact it got good representation from all round made it the gruelling battle I'd hoped it would be :)

I'm going to reveal this question-by-question. You might want to open the original game post in a seperate tab. You'll only be able to see your own votes, and can compare them with the outcomes! There were a couple of people who didn't vote for a stipulated option, but gave a response close enough for me to know what they meant (eg, answering YES to a true/false question). In these instances, I just allowed it to stand.

As I'd said in the beginning, I'll probably unscreen everyone's votes once we're finished and done with. But for now, let's look at our own ones, yeah? :)

( The votes are in..... )
I like how some of the questions formulated clear minorities, whilst others had a much tighter outcome. Also, a few of them ended up with runaway majorities. Interesting psychological games afoot?

Anyway, in the grand scheme of things, what's happened? It's time to announce the results!

( Placement: The Most Special Snowflakes! )

I'll try and upload a full breakdown of votes, points and suchwhats if I get the chance tomorrow- I know there's plenty of people round here who are suitably geeky to love that kind of review opportunity. I'll also look at uploading everything as a google document.

( Breakdown of points! )

RESULTS SPREADSHEET!

A new activity will be happening very soon. ♥

Activity: Hall of Prophecy
Points: 1st/2nd/3rd/Participation - 50/40/30/10 points.
Scenario: A race through the Hall of Prophecy! Find the 10 scavenger hunt clues among the Divinationy clutter, and submit it as fast as you can... but be warned, there's a secret twist at the end! Optional participation only hunt is available for 10 points only.

The results are in for this Scavenger Hunt!

I wanted to set you all something that was a little more challenging and lateral than the norm (we've had a lot of very simple activities in Divination this term.... you didn't think you'd get off completely free did you?)


( Revelations )

Also, many people didn't get all 10 clues, regardless of whether it was time trial or participation only (I believe many were prioritising the Amazing Race). So however you did, you're in good company. So, shall we face the moment of truth?

( Placement! )

( Results! )

Activity: Astrology Prediction Chart
Points: Repetitive Activity: Participation & Additional comments: 2pts. 30pts limit.
Scenario: Predict the events of the coming month or so based on what the planets are telling you. In true Divination fashion, the month will slowly get more and more tragic and hyperbolic as we go on. 2 points per sentence contributed, for 30 max. This activity was based on a suggestion by starianprincess who earns Gryffindor a further 5 points if she participates.


Results are in on this activity! I'm confident that if we handed in our joint homework assignment to Trelawney, we'd get a pass. It might only be an Acceptable (there was an awful lot of happiness in thems predictions, and we all know how allergic she is to people NOT dying miserable deaths in the coming months), but I think we'll live. Depends on how much cooking sherry she's had.

Anyway! Results!

Evening one and all,

You have just over 48 hours to submit an entry to this here Predictive Text Challenge!

We've had decent levels of participation, but there's always opportunity for more faces, ne? Remember that it's ONLY points for submitting an entry, not for guessing or anything! Just bung your quote of choice through your phone and voila, garbage output for points! :D

Oh yeah, that roster sweep (the one i've been promising since March) is still happening, but make sure your name is on the roster if you're participating- I shan't purge you if you're a recent conscriptee.

_{The future will look bleak if you forget to sign the ROSTER!}

The end of term approaches, and you are practicing for a subject that actually counts for something, Charms, by trying to vaanish objects from a subject that doesn't count for anything: Divination. A botched attempt when you lapse concentration, and all you manage to Vanish is the face design of the Seven of Cups. Realising you probably shouldn't be practicing with these at all, you quickly grab a quill and doodle a smiley face surrounded by a bunch of goblets. Amused, you decide to leave this one as it is.
