That Leaky Cauldron quiz ...

I'm not sure whether I should be pleased or worried at that score ...

Is it bad that I got distracted for about five minutes at how handsome Percy looks in that picture?

[snorkackcatcher]

He does? Um, if you say so. :)

Sorry. Well-groomed geeks are a turn-on. Apologies for the TMI.

I'm going to have to agree with you on the Percy=handsome in this pic. I also have a thing for red hair, so that helps. (Sorry about the TMI as well.)

I shall call you Weatherby from now on!

[snorkackcatcher]

Ouch. :)

Incidentally, I got 103. Don't think I got a single Book Six question right, but was amazed at some of the trivia I did know - Krum's wand, the time of the Portkey to the World Cup, the MoM rating for a Glumbumble!

One of the answers has a typo - they haven't put a 'c' in Smethwyck. Mind you, I didn't put a 'y' in, so I can't complain.

What surprised you - that you did or didn't know?

Well, it was mildly annoying not to score more -- some avoidable mistakes -- but the worrying thing was really that I did remember so many bits of pure trivia -- like the wand and the Portkey (I put 2 for the Glumbumble).

It's quite scary, isn't it? There were some where I was kicking myself - or choosing the wrong one of two answers. I actually left a lot blank. I don't do guessing games. If I don't know it, I don't know it!

*headdesk* Dude, can someone out there please get a lower score on this than me...

[snorkackcatcher]

Oops. :)

Good Score! I got an Acceptable 84, thus scoring as Harry. I was a tad miffed that I missed a few because I couldn't dredge the correct spelling up, but generally got it right.

I would guess that the mascot for an Outstanding would be Hermione?

[snorkackcatcher]

Sounds about right -- if I can be bothered I might cheat by typing in all the right answers to see what happens. :)

I think it means you're a genius. I would be pleased.

[snorkackcatcher]

Well, the fact that I remember can trivia like Ron's broom being made of 'Spanish oak' does suggest that I should get out more. :)

Oh dear. Now I can't stop giggling. If it helps, I just got 169 after retrying for the third time (the first time I got 124).

I'm going to post the 169, methinks.
