Hogwarts RPG Name: Emma Second | Okay everyone! It is time for a new contest! There are several different ones to choose from. We could do another Caption Contest, or do something different like a McGonagall Trivia, Poetry, Drabbles, etc. Please post your ideas, and then the pressies can choose what looks like to be the most popular choice! Lets get posting so we can get started in a week or two! |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Emma Second | Okay! I know I am a day late and a dollar short, but you all made it pretty tough for me to grade. First, I will tell you, there were two questions where two different answers had to be made acceptible. They were McG's official birthdate Oct 4, 1920 or 1925 will do and the meaning of her name includes both "the mind" and "Goddess of Wisdom" because the answer depends on where you look. Both are definately correct.
The most missed question was: What happened to Minerva that severely injured her and perhaps even threatened her life? She took a total of no fewer than four stunning spells directly to her chest. Those responsible were Umbridge and five others that included Dawlish the auror.
However, we do have one winner, although I must say it was close! Most everyone did quite well. The winner is.........Drumroll please............... lemondrop13!
Congrats!!!!!!!! Our graphics officer will have a prize for you very soon, so keep watching this site because it will be posted here! Also a new challenge will be coming soon!

5) What does Minerva consider to be the most complex and difficult branch

6) What is McGonagall's probable heritage? (Nationality) Scottish
7) She has a fondness for what type of patterns that hint at this heritage? Tartan plaids
