No: HPFGUIDX 128925

My turn (Fridwulfa):

 1. Who will be the most major character to die?
Victor Krum and/or Charlie Weasley.

2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy,"
 describe more.)

Godric Gryffindor.

3. What is Lily's big secret? (This question will be eliminated
and full credit given to everyone if no big secret is revealed.)

She worked for the MoM / was able to perform wandless magic.

4. Who will be the new DADA teacher?

A new character. Felix Felicis, probably.

5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship?

With no one. He'll be too busy grieving for Sirius and fighting the bag 
guys.

6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic?

Mafalda Hopkins

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

Voldemort's pensieve, found in Lucius Malfoy's secret chamber.

8. Will Harry take Advanced Potions?

You bet.

9. Will Neville take Advanced Potions?

He most certainly will.

10. How many OWLs did Harry get?

Six. He won't get OWLs in Divination, History of Magic and Astronomy


Predictions (0-10 points each):
 Make 5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question
 section. "Negative" predictions, i.e., "The Centaurs will *not* come
 skipping into Hogwarts offering free pony rides," will receive no
 credit. Obvious predictions, i.e., "Harry will be in his 6th year at
 Hogwarts," will likewise receive no credit.


 1. Firenze will save Harry's life or help him the way he did in PS.

2. Hermione will help Hagrid teach Grwap some English and become very fond 
of the giant, who will learn faster thanks to her.

3. We'll see Aragog again and this time he and his "children" will help 
Harry.

4. Muggles will die.
The Dursleys will be in great danger but not while Harry is with them. LV 
will understand that Harry's protected as long as he can return to his 
"home" once a year, and therefore try to destroy the Dursley's home and kill 
Petunia so he doesn't have said protection anymore. They'll survive, and 
Harry will visit Privet Drive on Xmas where he'll learn a lot of stuff about 
her mother.

5. Malfoy and the DE at the MoM will escape from Azkaban.

6. We'll meet Mr. Lovegood.

7. We'll see Rita Skeeter and Lockhart again.

8. Ron and Hermione will NOT start dating.
