I just want to take a moment to personally and publicly thank Rucha,
Catlady, and Julie for their responses to this contest. I also want to thank
Joywitch for putting this contest on her schedule so accommodatingly!

I passed the question on to Joywitch when a friend of mine asked me. I
thought immediately that it was the kind of thing HP4GU would love to talk
about.

These are all great ideas and with you ladies' permission, I will pass them
on to my friend, who wanted some ideas for a situation in a role-playing
game. 

That's the second part of this post: I do want to talk a little more about
this topic, but as it is no longer a contest, the thread should move to
OT-Chatter. Anyone who is interested, please reply there.

Catlady mentioned trying to figure out how to simulate magic at the faire.
And I guess I should have been clearer in my post to Joywitch, because the
contest didn't make it clear: in the situation where these games and ideas
will be put to (virtual) "use," the hosts of the faire DO have access to
magic. They have to be careful, just like wizards, and no, they are not
wizards, but they are NOT LIMITED to what is technologically possible. In
other words, they could make broomsticks fly, if they wanted.

So, if you had access to magic and could overhaul a Renaissance Pleasure
Faire into a Harry Potter themed faire, what would you do? Please join me on
OT-Chatter to discuss this.

Thanks!
