Post J.K.Rowling updates website with treats

J.K.Rowling's website has been further updated with more information about the forthcoming Potter encyclopaedia and a couple of treats for fans.

Quote:
Companion Books

It's common knowledge that I love genuine Harry Potter fansites, which is why I created my own award to recognise their creativity and ingenuity.

It's also old news that I hope one day to write the definitive Harry Potter encyclopedia, which will include all the material that never made it into the novels, and that I will give the royalties from this book to charity.

I cannot, therefore, approve of "companion books" or "encyclopedias" that seek to pre-empt my definitive Potter reference book for their authors’ own personal gain. The losers in such a situation would be the charities, that I hope, eventually, to benefit.
To retrieve the goodies you have to, as always, figure out the steps. For those who don't want to do it themselves, however, there are the following the clues;

SPOILER!!: Happy Hallowe'en!
First Clue: In the Rubbish Bin, hold your curser on the Sneakascope until it moves. A ? will be revealed. Then go to the "Extras" section and draw the mark. A handwritten paper from Jo regarding the third year is revealed, and note the very curious names of professors at the top of the page.

Second Clue: Take the portkey to Jo's office. On the lightswitch, click the upper right corner, then move your cursor to peel back the wallpaper Door for a new Potion recipe (egg and Lacewing Fly leg). Portkey back to the main desk and wait for ole Peeves to come by and knock over the pens. Poof! an egg appears. Click on it. Portkey over to the "Fansites" area and wait in the Fansites trophy case for a new Lacewing Fly to flit in and land on the FSA cup. Click on it.

I like that Jo made that statement about companion books, and I'm very excited for her HP Encyclopedia.

Finally! Sheesh, it took me ages to ...

SPOILER!!: need help?
... pull back that wallpaper. Don't click on the lightswitch itself, click on the wallpaper near the top right corner of the lightswitch and drag your cursor straight up.
