He didn't ask for any challenge, he asked for his Harry Potter general knowledge to be challenged - what a muppet, try thinking before you type.

thank you good sir

What the heck is your problem. I haven't read a single constructive post by this guy; everyone one them is some kind of vacuous insult like: 'you moron' or 'you muppet'. You really need to lighten up and stop posting such negative, scornful drivel.

well ur wrong AGAIN because i havent insulted any one but if ur looking for a fight uve found it-LOSER

It's called a JOKE mate, try looking it up in the dictionary; although the definition will probably go straight over your head because you're obviously humourless and ignorant.

anyway this thred is used for challenging my potter knowledge not to argue with some.....person

Typical, when things aren't going your way, 'it..it was only a joke, allright??' Haha.

What was the first line Harry ever said?
What was the first spell Hermione did?
What was the LAST line Harry said in the third movie?
What does RAB stand for?
Who did Ron go to the dance with?
Where is the first place you see Sirius' picture?
Name the books in order and what would you like the next book to be called? (Not really trivia right there, just wondering...)

Who is RAB?

Take heed: Don't challenge TheSun to verbal combat...

To stay on subject: Name all of the 4 houses ghosts.

Seriously, why do you even post on these forums? I've read many of your posts, and out of all of them I haven't heard you make a single point that's even close to constructive. Every single word you type pertains to some kind of retort, none of which are clever or even witty. They are merely trite and generic insults that make you look like a sad, miserable bastard, with nothing interesting to say for himself; so you have to resort to criticising the content of other peoples posts.

erm right
1. not sure
2. occulars reparo
3. regulas a black
4. padma patil
5. at the potters wedding
6. pilosaphors stone,chamber of secrets,prisoner of azkaban,goblet of fire,order of the phoenix,half blood prince ( i don't know about number 7 i have no ideas)

Sorry to bother you, sir. Um, these are really obscure, some of them, but I tried to make them hard, sir:

1. Where did the four Hogwarts House founders live (from where did they come - these are general area descriptions)?

2. Name one Unspeakable other than Broderick Bode (there was, I think, only one other ever mentioned).

3. For the Quidditch World Cup, who was the site manager for the Diggory's campsite?

4. How old is Lucius Malfoy and where is his mansion?

5. What is Doris Purkiss's address?

6. Of what band is Stubby Boardman the lead singer?

7. How old is Sturgis Podmore and what is his address?

8. Name the house ghost of Ravenclaw House.

9. Why was Vicky Frobisher not chosen as Gryffindor Keeper to replace Oliver Wood?

10. According to Lupin, who almost lost an eye to the Whomping Willow?

11. What type of creature is/was Aragog?

12. What is Professor Flitwick's first name?

There are a few that I thought pretty difficult.

I only know the last two - Aragog was an Acromantula, and Flitwick is Filius. I'll let scurran do the others lol. Oh and zombieman, you can say what you want about me insulting others, but the first thing you said to the guy opening this thread was 'sod off'. Honestly, talk about casting the first stone...

That's right, Mr. TheSun, sir. Perhaps I made them too obscure and irrelevant. My apologies if they were poorly conceived questions, but thanks very much for viewing them, sir.

Actually, noone knows what his middle name is - Alphard was mentioned as Sirius' uncle, so some people thought that was his middle name, however someone noticed that arcturus was a constellation, just like Sirius - hence came ot the conclusion that that was his middle name. Personally, I don't even think it is Regulus.

I challenge you.

What's my middle name?

9. because ron was chosen

11.acromantula
12. filius

these are hard as hell

Yeah, I know - I tried to make them difficult, and I think that I went way overboard. Sorry about that, sir. Here are the answers, in case you wanted them (the reference page numbers are given from the American version of the book, so if they do not work out then just look to chapter for reference):

1. Gryffindor was from "wild moor," Ravenclaw from "glen," Hufflepuff from "valley broad," and Slytherin from "fen." This is from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, in the Sorting Hat's song (GoF, Chapter 12).

2. Unspeakables, or members of the Department of Mysteries, were seen and discussed very rarely. Broderick Bode was a prime example, though he was killed in the fifth book, of course, by the Devil's Snare at St. Mungo's. However, the first time Bode was seen, it was at the Quidditch World Cup, and he was with another Unspeakable, both of whom Arthur Weasley pointed out to Harry. This is from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, where Mr. Weasley is pointing out Ministry officials to Harry. The other Unspeakable is named "Croaker" (GoF, Chapter Seven).

3. The only campsite manager with whom we became acquainted was Mr. Roberts, who was the Weasleys's campsite manager, though he ended up cast high into the air and levitated about with his family. When Basil was giving directions to the Diggorys and Weasleys after they arrived by portkey from Stoatshead Hill, he told Mr. Diggory to go to the campsite manager "Mr. Payne." This is the only time we ever hear of him. This is also from GoF (GoF, Chapter Seven).

4. You were, of course, right.

5. Doris Purkiss was the woman from that article from the fifth book that Kingsley Shacklebolt thought might give Sirius a laugh. She claimed that Sirius was innocent and that he was really Stubby Boardman, a singer. Her address was given as 18 Acanthia Way, Little Norton, at the start of the article, from OotP (OotP, Chapter Ten).

6. Boardman's band is also given as "The Hobgoblins" on the same page, on the same article as the address for Purkiss in OotP (OotP, Chapter Ten).

7. The article about how Sturgis was caught at the Ministry of Magic and was sent to Azkaban gave his age and address as 38 years old and "number two Laburnum Gardens, Clapham," respectively, in OotP (OotP, Chapter 14).

8. The Ravenclaw house ghost is the only one that often not expressed in the books, unlike the Fat Friar (Hufflepuff), Nearly-Headless Nick, or Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington (Gryffindor), or the Bloody Baron (Slytherin). However, the last ghost is named the Grey Lady, and she, though very inconspicuous much of the time, appears in the Philosopher's Stone when Harry and Ron search for the Mirror of Erised (PS, Chapter 12). The reason we know she is actually the official ghost of Ravenclaw makes the question unfair - this is a result of my own incompetence, however - I should have checked that it does NOT actually say so in any of the books. Instead, JKR actually gave this information out from her notes. However, the process of elimination of all the House Ghosts and the lack of background behind her also give the impression that she is the Ravenclaw ghost. My apologies, however, for the lack of clarity and the poor referencing in this question.

9. Frobisher tried out for Keeper and, being one of the best applicants, along with Geoffrey Hooper, was rejected, due to her many extracurricular committments and her statement that she placed charms club at a higher priority than she would Quidditch, in OotP (OotP, Chapter 13).

10. When Lupin is consoling Harry about Harry's broom being destroyed by the Whomping Willow he states that children used to make a game out of trying to get as close as possible to the tree, until a boy named Davey Gudgeon almost lost an eye, at which point it was forbidden to go near the tree (PoA, Chapter Ten).

11. This one was right.

12. This one was right as well, sir.

Sorry to have inconvenienced you. I hope that the answers were informative and clearer than the questions, sir. Erm, thanks very much for looking anyways, and I'd gladly try again, if you'd like, to make a better set of questions.

lol... wow your good darth dipsit!!! ppl should be challenging you!!! anyway i have a question!!! what is harrys moms maiden name? or first last name till she married james potter?

All of the evidence would suggest that RAB is Regulus: first name starting in R, last name in B; a locket was found in the Black's residence (bit of a coincidence that voldemort lost one and the black's have one); and lastly, wasn't Regulus Black a deatheater? That would explain the way the note they found was worded.

However, I will admit that nothing in a JK Rowling book has ever had an obvious or predictable resolution.

Yeah alot of people have said stuff like that

They certainly have.

do you believe any of the other theories

Personally, I'm about 90% sure it's Regulus; but I accept the possibility that we could be in for another of JK's HUGE unexpected twists.

what kind of wood is hermione's wand?

Good question. This is an accidental double-post, by the way. My post below was a repeat of this, so I modified this one to explain. My apologies for the trouble.

rookwood was also an unspeakable too

Really? It says that? If so, good job - you beat me at my own quiz, sir.

well that is my job

Oh yeah - it does say that Rookwood works for the Department of Mysteries in the "The Pensieve" chapter, so I suppose I've got to give that one to you. But are all Mysteries employees Unspeakables? I was never sure if it was meant that all were or just the lower employees, or the ones in the field. However, it would make sense for all of them to be Unspeakables anyways. But good work, Mr. scurran, sir!
