| | | Third day of Pottermore's Magical Quill Challenge on Prisoner of Azkaban now closed Pottermore.com’s Magical Quill Scavenger Hunt has launched the third round of registrations, giving fans worldwide the opportunity to have early access by answering a question from the third book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
A screencap of the question for Day Three, August 2, 2011, can be seen below:
For those who have found the question and managed to register, you may discuss the question/answer in this thread but please put your comments in a spoiler tag to avoid spoiling other fans. [*spoiler=Pottermore Magical Quill Day Three]Answer text[*/spoiler] – but remove the asterisks (*)
Do NOT post the link of the page the Magical Quill challenge directs to! Also: make sure your adblock is disabled, or you won't be able to see the quill.
Once registered, you may also insert your Pottermore name into your SnitchSeeker profile, if you would like to, by following this link and completing the field titled "Pottermore Username".
SnitchSeeker will continuously update with news on Pottermore every day of this week, including when the new clues are released. Wednesday’s question will revolve around the fourth book, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, so it may be worth refreshing your knowledge of Durmstrang and Beauxbatons (for who knows what the question will be). Note: If you've answered the clue and been able to register and validate your account, you are done with this stage of the Pottermore experience. You do not need to register again; the next part is to await the Welcome Email for the Pottermore beta site, which will be sent anytime between August 7 to September 30, 2011. UPDATE: The Third Day of registrations are now closed. Be sure to check tomorrow for another chance to sign up to Pottermore.com! UPDATE 2: The Pottermore Insider blog has been updated, answering some more commonly asked questions and also giving a hint on when tomorrow's Clue will be revealed. Quote: So far, all the clues have appeared in the early hours of the morning in my time zone. Will this continue for the remainder of The Magical Quill challenge?
We know that Harry Potter fans around the world are taking part in the challenge, so we will be varying the times that the clues are revealed. We can tell you that tomorrow's clue (Day 4) will be released between 2.00pm and 6.00pm BST. I have seen people offering to register early access accounts for others. Is it safe to give my personal details to someone who is offering this service?
Absolutely not. You should never share personal details online unless you are certain how they will be used and protected. Also, please note that the transfer of Pottermore accounts is expressly prohibited in The Magical Quill promotion Terms & Conditions. Is there any update on the Yahoo! Mail issue?
This has now been resolved and everyone who registered with a Yahoo! Mail account on Sunday or Monday should now have received their validation email.

Stupid Pottermore, is so mean!  They make it at a normal time when I actually can stay up all night and have to be in the car all day. Curse you Pottermore!

I really want to get involved in this. I hope im not the only 29 year old here doing this. lol Mere babies.....I've been at my current job for 31 years. The body may age but the mind is as young as you choose to keep it. You don't have to be Hogwarts age to appreciate a magnificently creative and magical experience. I got in day 1. You need less sleep as you get older. |

I activated the account and everything went fine. I'm trying to get to that page again from the activation link, and can't get in anymore, is that normal? I'm about to start freaking out!

I'm about to start freaking out! What do you mean? When you have avtivated your account just go to Pottermore: a unique online Harry Potter experience from J.K. Rowling and click sign in and you should be able to access your account. I think once you have clicked and validated your profile, the link becomes invalid.

I hope that they will release the question later so that it comes up at a good time for everyone around the world, which I think they are doing. I think the last questions will be better for other people (time-wise)

Rage. My dad woke me at 5 a.m., because I asked him too, but the fact that it won't be until later is pretty irritating. Whatever though, it's happening for me today, I feel it...
