"I hereby certify that I have not read the scanned "Epilogue" pages
or any summary of them." (Tracy Tunstall.)



1. Will Harry die and stay dead at the end of HPDH?
No

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

3. Excluding Harry and Voldemort, who will be the most prominent
character to die and stay dead?
Hagrid most prominent but also Percy, Kreacher, Tonks, Peter, Luna & 
possibly a few more. We have been promised a  "bloodbath"

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?
Dark Mark

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?    	NO
b. Draco?    	NO
c. Hermione?   	YES
d. Luna?            YES
e. Ron?             YES
f. Neville?	YES
g. Ginny?	YES

6. Which will be the most prominent couple to marry, if any, during
the time period covered in DH, excluding any epilogue?
Bill & Fleur

7. Who will be the unusual person who performs magic for the first
time "very late in life?"
Mrs Figg

8. Assuming Hogwarts reopens as a school, who will be the:
a. Head Boy? RON (mirror of erised)
b. Head Girl?	Hermione
c. DADA Instructor?	Kingsley (Voldy will be gone at end, so no 
curse!)
d. Potions Master or Mistress?	Slughorn
e. Headmaster or -mistress?	McGonagall

9. Where do Snape's ultimate loyalties lie?
     Against Voldermort

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.  Diary (desytroyed)
b.  Ring (destroyed)
c.  Locket (Aberforth has this, took it from Mundungus in Hogsmeade)
d.  Hufflepuff cup 
e.  Ravenclaw wand from shop window
f.   Gryffindor sword
g.   In Voldermort


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 boggart?
No patronus, don't think he has enough happiness in him
Boggart=Voldermort victorious

Alternate 2. What is behind the locked door at the Department of
Mysteries in the Ministry of Magic?
Unselfish love like Harry showed at the age of 11 when he looked in 
the mirror & only desired Voldermort's defeat, Dumbledore said he was 
unique and that is a power Voldy can never comprehend.



Predictions (10 points each / 50 points total):

Make 5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question section.

Current Off-Limit Spoilers:
-- Predictions that describe any the covers are worth 0 points
unless they include specific information not obvious in the cover.
-- SPOILER: Kreacher will be in DH. (David Yates, interview.) (Note:
because we are pretty sure that Kreacher will figure at least
somewhat prominently in DH, any predictions about his presence on a
cover will also be worth 0 points.)
-- The probable identity of "R.A.B." as stumbled around by JKR
during Leaky / Mugglenet interview will earn 0 points.
-- Predictions based on "Gabriel the Hacker" are allowed but we will
laugh at you when they're wrong.
-- Anything stupidly obvious (e.g., Harry will turn 17, Ron and
Hermione will date, Voldemort is evil, someone will perform magic,)
will be worth 0 points, at most. Negative points are possible.
-- "Negative" predictions, i.e., "The Centaurs will *not* come
skipping into Hogwarts offering free pony rides," will receive no
credit.
-- Only your first 5 predictions will be evaluated and included in
your score. Extra predictions may be marveled at but will not be
scored.

1. Snape is working for good and will survive but throughout the book 
it will appear otherwise.
2. Aberforth is the order member we have met but not in detail. He 
has the locket. He will help Harry, he also has a conection to Snape.
3.  Bill & Hermione (ancient runes anyone?) will help with curse 
breaking.
4. Harry will go through the veil with Voldermort but only Harry will 
return & we will get a final goodbye to Sirrius (sob! sob!!!)
5. Ron will appear to be fatally injured in a sacrifice for Harry (as 
per the chess game) but will survive & enable Harry to go on. Peter 
will pay his life debt (Fernrir?) and Kreacher will be forced to 
reveal that he went with Regulus to retrieve the locket, he will go 
with Harry but may betray him to the baddies as in HBP. I'd love a 
Kreacher/Dobby final showdown.

Finally, because I couldn't resist, I am hoping that the last chapter 
(not epilogue) will be called "The Boy Who Lived"

Thank you, that was fun
Tracy, de-lurking for the first & possibly last time in years.
