Thanks TK for letting me know I forgot to answer #4. Must have skipped
it while thinking about a possible answer.


Predictions Contest Compulsory Questions (50 points total): If you
believe the answer to a question is a new character, write "new
character" *and* describe relationships to old characters or
characteristics of new character for full credit.

1. Will Harry die and stay dead at the end of HPDH?
yes & no (Id hate to see Harry gone forever, I can't write yes for both!)

2. Will Voldemort die and stay dead at the end of HPDH?
yes and yes

3. Excluding Harry and Voldemort, who will be the most prominent
character to die and stay dead?
Hagrid, I can't believe I'm saying this!

4. From HBP (p125, American Hardcover), in the shop while the trio
were listening with Extendable Ears, what did Draco show Borgin that
scared him?
Draco showed Borgin his Death Mark on his arm.

5. Assuming Hogwarts reopens as a school, who will return as a
student, which means enrolled in classes whether or not they attend
the classes (answer yes or no for each):
     a. Harry? yes
     b. Draco? no
     c. Hermione? yes
     d. Luna? yes
     e. Ron? no

the time period covered in DH, excluding any epilogue?
Bill Weasley & Fleur Delacour

7. Who will be the unusual person who performs magic for the first
time "very late in life?"
Uncle Vernon (just to piss off Aunt Petunia even more) *eg*

8. Assuming Hogwarts reopens as a school, who will be the:
     a. Head Boy? Ernie Macmillan for Hufflepuff
     b. Head Girl? Hermoine for Gryffindor, Padma Partil for
Ravenclaw, Pansy Parkinson for Slytherin
     c. DADA Instructor? Alastor Moody
     d. Potions Master or Mistress? a new character, we haven't met
yet, with tight links to the MoM and possibly Evil Doloris Umbridge
     e. Headmaster or -mistress? Professor McGonagall at least for a part of DH

9. Where do Snape's ultimate loyalties lie?
With Dumbledore - and without the "till death do us part" - part!

10. Identify the seven Horcruxes. (If you think there are more or less
than seven, write "n/a" or add extra letters as necessary. Horcruxes
in previous books and previously inactivated Horcruxes must be
identified for full credit. If you think one of the soul pieces is in
Voldemort so there are six external Horcruxes plus the bit still in
him, then write "In Voldemort" for one of the answers.)
     a. Tom Riddle's diary
     b. Marvolo Gaunt's ring
     c. Salazar Slytherin's locket
     d. Helga Hufflepuff's cup
     e. the Sorting Hat (Voldy somehow managed to get hold of it while
Dumbledore was out of his office)
     f. Harry himself
     g. in Voldemort


In case Hogwarts does not reopen, or in case we do not have sufficient
information to answer #5 and #8 above, these two alternate questions
will used in place of #5 and #8, above. If #5 and #8 are sufficiently
answered in DH, the alternate questions will be used as tiebreakers.

Alternate 1. What are Snape's patronus and boggert?
patronus: a tiger, because they both walk smooth, without making a
noise and are dark
boggart: James Potter

Alternate 2. What is behind the locked door at the Department of
Mysteries in the Ministry of Magic?
There's a prophecy of some form behind the locked door - Im just not
sure whether it is in a non-human form or whether it is a human...

Make 5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question section.
1. Snape will help Harry fighting Voldemort and play a significant
role in it all
2. we will meet Dumbledore again
3. information about the magical world will leak out into the muggle world
