Well, here's my 2 cents worth....
 
> Compulsory Questions (0-5 points each): 
> 
> 1. Who will be the most major character to die? 

Remus Lupin

> 2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? 

Neville

> 3. What is Lily's big secret?

I am guessing she did some major spying for DD and got herself 
into a few compromising postitions.

> 4. Who will be the new DADA teacher? 

Someone new and hopefully on DD's side.

> 5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship? 

Luna Lovegood or Ginny
 
> 6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic? 

Madame Bones

> 7. What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover? 

That'd be DD's pensieve.

> 8. Will Harry take Advanced Potions? 

Yes and Snape will be doubly hard on Harry.

> 9. Will Neville take Advanced Potions?

I'd say no.
  
> 10. How many OWLs did Harry get? 

I say Harry will pass everything with flying colours.

1.  Harry inherits Grimmauld Place (much to his chagrin as well 
as Kreacher's.)

2.  We learn more about Snape (hopefully enough back story to 
show why he is so bitter but not enough to ruin the character).

3.  Neville FINALLY stands up to Snape and tells him to take a 
royal hike.

4.  Draco sides with LV after his dad is in jail but has an 'oh, 
CRAP' moment once in LV camp and manages to switch sides realizing 
he ain't as bad ass as his dad and when pa hears this disinherits 
the lad.

5. Either Snape and/or Lupin had a crush on Lily.
