New FAQ poll at her official website....... Article:
There is now a new F.A.Q. Poll at JKRowling.com, with three questions that Harry Potter fans are aching to know the answers to:
1. Is Percy working undercover for any secret orginazation/boss?
2. Where has Peter Pettigrew (Wormtail) been since the end of 'Goblet of Fire'?
3. What did Dumbledore's Howler to Aunt Petunia mean? ("Remember my last"?)

I think it's pretty clear what that Howler meant, Petunia was Dumbledore's last blood connection to Lily for Harry. And I doubt she's going to throw another spanner in the works for Percy. So I'd prefer her to answer the wormtail question.
Right now 57% want the Howler question answered.

I could see Percy being a spy of some sort for the M.O.M. but I doubt it. I would love to know what Wormtail's been up to though!

but if ne one wants to clarify the whole howler thing to me i would really appreciate it! Basically it detailed why Harry has to stay at the Dursleys when he's not at Hogwarts. The part of Lily's blood that's in Petunia protects Harry.

I hope the Wormtail question gets answered. I agree with Marcella_Riddle about the Howler, but it would be nice to see what JK has to say about it.
I very much doubt that Percy is working undercover. If he is then JK hasn't shown any signs of it. Wormtails most likely devising another plan to get or kill Harry, or he might be on some sort of mission.

[COLOR=purple][FONT=Courier]I voted for the Wormtail question to be answered. I think JK fully explained the Howler situation in the book well enough. It was to make sure that Petunia remembered that she took Harry in for Dumbledore so that he could stay alive and that it was because of that that sealed the charm. As long as Harry could call that home, he would be hidden from Voldemort. Petunia knows this, and is why she has to keep her promise to Dumbledore and not let Harry go.
I don't really like this poll, I really want to know about Sirius. But I guess if i had to pick anything, I would pick the Wormtail one. About the whole Percy thing, I don't think he is undercover. He just went against his parents and with the Ministry on the views about Voldemort, so he decided to cease all contact with them. I don't think that has anything to do with being undercover. Oh well, let's look forward to her answer no matter what it is to, and hope that the next poll will be a lot more informative! :/

| Isn't it obvious were wormtail has been?
With Voldemort, of course!!!
He didn't appear on OotP because he has to stay low in case anyone sees him and finds out he really is alive, therefore, Sirius would be proven innocent, Death Eaters and Voldemort (I think) are strongly against it. |

I voted the Howler question, but I wish I had read this first now because you've just told me what it meant and I had forgotten.
EDIT : But then again, if we didn't know to the full extent of what the Howler meant, she wouldn't have put the question up to answer.

I didn't know that silver could kill a werewolf. I hope that wormtail doen't try to kill Lupin because Lupin's the last of the true marauders. I would want the Wormtail question answered because:
1) The Howler was pretty much self-explanatory because "Remeber My Last" pretty much means when Dumbledore sent the last letter to Petunia with baby Harry, explaining all the blood protection and such, and
2) Percy is just being a git, siding with his boss.

I voted the Wormtail question. But my theory is that he ran away from Voldemort. The Sorting Hat didnt put him in Gryffindor for nothing! and Voldemort didnt draw attention to it when he was at the minisrty fighting harry,because Peter is weak and he doesnt need any help in killing peter. Thats how Peter pays Harry back...he gets himself killed like he should have done in the first place! |

Click on any of them. Then this sheet of paper comes up and behind it you can see a small piece of paper peeking out. Click on the last line that says 'FAQ Poll'  Hope that helped!
I've voted for Wormtail, but I can't help wondering why on earth she put a question about Percy on there if there isn't anything going on... :ermsmile:

Right now 57% want the Howler question answered. ^^exactly. This is just backing that up with the book...
The following is an excert from OotP, if you have not read the book, and don't want to read anything from it, then don't read the following.
"You sent that Howler. You told her to remember-- it was your voice--"-Harry
"I thought, that she might need reminding of the pact she had sealed by taking you." (page 836, OotP)-Dumbledore
There is more to it, but that may give something away, so I left that out. Dumbledore was just refering to his last letter to Petunia, which was given the night Harry's parents died and he was left to the Dursleys.
That is the answer of that question. Period.

I think the Howler question is the best one, because JK put those up for a reason, I think whatever answer she gives it may be an indication to what will be covered in book 6. I think Aunt Petunia is keeping a bigger secret than we realise. I think she knows more than shes not letting on! |

I want the Peter Pettigrew one answered, but I'm not voting for it because JK won't be able to give too much away because that will be answered in the next book. I'm voting for the howler question...it seems like the answers clear, but maybe there's something more too it. Plus, I think out of all the questions it is probably the one most likely to give us a good answer... the other two will probably just be answered with something along the lines of, "you'll find out next book!"
