No: HPFGUIDX 131582

I have been lurking for a while now.  After re-reading all five
books in anticipation for Book Six, thought I would have a go
at the predictions contest.

 
Compulsory Questions (0-5 points each): 
1. Who will be the most major character to die? 
As Harry always loses those people who have became
surrogate parents to him, Molly Weasley & Remus Lupin. 
Lupin will die because of Pettigrew's silver hand.
 
2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy," describe 
more.) 
Trevor, Neville's toad.
 
3. What is Lily's big secret? (This question will be eliminated and 
full credit given to everyone if no big secret is revealed.) 
Lily invented whatever gave the Potters the fortune they left to 
Harry - possibly Drooble's gum.
 
4. Who will be the new DADA teacher? 
Snape will finally get the position, as the WW is now at war, & 
Dumbledore wants someone qualified to teach it.
 
5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship? 
It will be Susan Bones or Eloise Midgen, now that her acne 
has cleared up.  There will be a bit of riff in 
his friendships though, as he spends more time 
with Luna & Hermione doesn't like to be around 
her.
 
6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic? 
Tiberius Ogden
 
7. What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover? 
A Pensieve from the Department of Mysteries.
 
8. Will Harry take Advanced Potions? 
Yes, but he will now hate DADA.
 
9. Will Neville take Advanced Potions? 
Yes, because there will be a new Potions teacher, 
McCleggan, the Old Lion guy. 
 
10. How many OWLs did Harry get? 
If practical exams get their own OWLs, Harry will get 12. If they 
aren't counted separately, Harry will get 7.
 
Predictions (0-10 points each): 
 
1. Harry will get the other mirror to Sirius beyond the veil, 
& he will be able to communicate with him 
& with his parents.
2. The Centaur population has been decimated by Grawp,
so it is safe for Firenze to go back into the Forbidden 
Forest.  We'll see female Centaurs in this book. 
(They have to be able to repopulate.)
3. Neville's mom is able to communicate this book, 
and there will be a potion using Drooble's Gum to 
help others like her.
4. Ginny will become a prefect.  
5. Dumbledore will ask Harry to continue Dumbledore's 
Army, but he will have to open it up to 
the Slytherins, thus going along with the 
Sorting Hat's song in OOTP.  Also, we will learn more about 
Theodore Nott & Blaise Zabini.
6.  Grawp becomes more civilized, & assists Hagrid 
in his duties.  This will be the wildest year 
for Care of Magical Creatures class. 
7.  The new Minister for Magic will give house elves 
& goblins more "rights" than they have had
before, which infuriates the pure blood wizards.
8.  Neville finds out about the prophecy & is convinced he
is the one to defeat Voldemort.  He will die, 
but his grandmother will finally be proud of him.  He will do 
outstanding magic this year, as he will 
have his own wand.


Nance, who is very happy Book Six will come out 
two days before her birthday.
