<I know that moron!!!! I am in lots of clubs, but I want to knwo if
there is anything special, like if we get sorted or anything.>

Though I could've done without the "moron" part, you ask a valid question,
which I am happy to answer. Thank you for the clarification, by the way.

We're pretty informal around here. A month ago, several of us went to
www.harrypotterfans.net to be sorted. But aside from comparing notes
on the results, we didn't *do* anything with the information. We don't
compete for house points, or play online Quidditch or anything of
that nature.

We do have a couple of non-competitive activities, however.

One is a round-robin story, which seems to be at a standstill right
now. For more information on that, go to message #1087. Or, if you'd
just like to read the story, check out the messages in that time period.

The other is the "daily" puzzle. Every day (or thereabouts), someone
posts a puzzle or set of trivia questions, along with their e-mail
address. Anyone who solves the puzzle e-mails their answers to the
given address. The puzzle writer chooses a winner (usually the first
with the correct answers). That winner will post the next day's puzzle
or trivia. If that interests you, go to the latest puzzle (right now
it's on message #1205) and follow the instructions on the post. Maybe
you'll get to write the next one.

But mostly what were all about is plain old, ordinary discussion. As with
most clubs, if you have something HP-related you'd like to talk about,
just jump in. Same with if you see see something you'd like to reply to.

I hope that answers your question. If not, please feel free to try again,
but in a nicer way this time, okay?

Thank you.

Melanie
