ADMIN: Who Will Die, Who Shouldn't Die, And Who Oughtta Die Polls

Dear listmembers,

In JKR's recent BBC Newsround interview, she again invited 
speculation about which characters will not survive the final pages 
of OoP. She said, "And there's a bad death in it, which I haven't 
enjoyed writing." In past interviews, JKR has said that OoP 
contains a death "that's going to be horrible to write" and she has 
warned that Harry will learn "exactly what death means, in even 
closer ways."

The Moderator Team has set up four polls asking list members to 
predict which character is the OoP death that is "horrible to 
write," which other characters might die in OoP, which characters 
list members hope will not die, and which characters list members 
would kill off if they had half the chance. 

All of these polls will remain open until the release of OoP; you 
may change your votes as often as you like. All voting will be 
anonymous except for the poll asking which death will be horrible to 
write -- those who choose correctly may gloat when OoP proves them 
right and may say "I told you so!" as often as is appropriate.

Happy voting!

Cindy, for the Mods
