alt_sally_anneJust as I was finishing breakfast this morning, Cedric Diggory from Hufflepuff came over to the Slytherin table and asked me if third years were allowed in that game I was organising. I said sure, if they want, and he said what about fourth and fifth years and I said yes, anyone can play, they just need to let me know by Wednesday at breakfast so I can assign targets by Friday.
And he grinned and said I should put his name down. And then he glanced back over at his own table and gave them a thumbs-up.
So yeah, if anyone else is wondering, I was kind of assuming just firsties would want to play but anyone's welcome, just let me know I guess. If you're a big kid wanting to play you'll need to write down your name and house for me though, I know all the Slytherins and all the firsties but the rest kind of blur together still. I only knew Diggory because he's the Quidditch Seeker.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Alright I'm adding a rule: aside from the hex that turns people's ears blue you can ONLY use spells from the Standard Book of Spells, Grade 1 in the game. That still puts firsties at a disadvantage because we've only made it through the first half, but that should keep things a bit more even.

Its up to you but I dunno about 7th-years in the game. Maybe we could handicap them somehow?

That way everyone's playing at the same level, no matter what year they're in.
