Professor Truebridge waited for the Gryffindor and Slytherin players to enter the Gobstones court. He handed them their gobstone bags, green for Slytherin, red for Gryffindor, each containing the appropriately coloured gobstones and he levitated the grey jackstone into position in the centre of the court.

"I expect that before we begin you will have all made yourself familiar with the rules. There will be no tolerance for cheating and only one warning will be issued for playing out of turn. Lets begin."


ooc: remember, the match can be watched in the viewing area by those who are not participating. The rules must be followed at all times.

Evelyn Flores of Slytherin starts the match and the round with a confident shot, the green gobstone rolls to a stop a hands width or so from the jackstone. Does Gryffindor have an answering shot or will it be gob city for them today?

Evelyn Flores of Slytherin takes aim and her little green gobstone rolls within a little more than an inch of the Jackstone. Roxxy De Rivera of Gryffindor takes a nice shot too... but its a little too nice and the red gobstone just serves to nudge the green one just that much closer to the Jackstone. Slytherin wins the round and the point.

Gryffindor's Herminny Telerino takes a shot, the aim is perfect but not quite enough force behind it this time. The red gobstone comes to rest about a handswidth from the jackstone and the Gryffindors hold their breath as Destiny Shepard of Slytherin calmly and efficiently takes a shot, sending the green gobstone to rest against the jackstone, nudging the red stone just enough to force it to release a gob right at the Gryffindors.

An unusually weak attempt by Slytherin's Evan Cartwright leaves the game right open for the Gryffindor team. Gryffindor's Herminny Telerino takes a shot but it had a bit too much power in it and rolls out of the playing area. But whats this? Patroclus Hudson tosses a red stone in, and earns a warning for playing out of turn. No points awarded.

ooc: first and only warning for more than one post by the same house. Any further examples of this will result in a round penalty. ie, the round will immediately be won by the other house. In this case a new question will be asked.

As for the answer, any trade job would have sufficed, both Gryffindor answers were correct but the second post negated the first one.

The Warlock's Hairy Heart - the maiden the Warlock falls in love with
The Fountain of Fair Fortune - Asha

Gryffindor recover remarkably well and their shots come to rest so close to the Jackstone that it is almost pointless for Slytherin to bother. However Nancy Hudonson of Slytherin calmly knocks the green gobstone so close to the Jackstone you'd be hard pressed to slide a piece of paper in there.

Point to Slytherin.

ooc: Spelling errors enough to change an answer to be incorrect and an incomplete answer caused Gryffindor not to get this one, which is unfortunate since you guys obviously know the answers, but for the purposes of the game your posted answers were incorrect (or rather, not correct enough).

Surely Gryffindor are not disheartened? The Slytherin prefect starts the round confidently, the green stone rolls into play within one easy shot of a round victory. It is still anyone's game however and Gryffindor have certainly recovered from far more extreme situations.

Professor Truebridge solemnly levitated the Gryffindor players a few towels to wipe the gob off their faces as Nancy Hudonson shows a little bit of that old Slytherin Prefect skill, reminiscent of Clifford Carden and Evangeline Green. The Green gobstone rolls perfectly adjacent to the jackstone and even gives it a friendly little nudge. Point to Slytherin.

Glisseo. It may be the spell that transforms the stairs of the Gryffindor girls' dormitories at Hogwarts, to prevent boys from entering. Also, Hermione Granger used it to turn a staircase into a slide, during the Battle of Hogwarts so that she, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley could avoid attacking Death Eaters.

The students of Slytherin once more prove that they are among the most skilled and dangerous Gobstones players. Their opponents of Gryffindor aren't bad by any measure, but the Snakes consistently reign over the playing field with very accurate throws. But even with a comfortable three-round lead, they are showing no signs of slowing down. Evelyn Flores takes careful aim, and her green Gobstone, trailing a lazy arc around the center, comes to rest just a few inches away from the jackstone.
