About damn time
By: YouBetcha Date: September 10, 2011, 3:33 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
So I got my welcome email on my first account (not
ChestnutWolf42; and yes, I made two, shut up).
It's okay so far. Could be a little more interactive, although
I'm not sure how. The art is gorgeous, but it's kinda slowing
down my 10-inch netbook. It's unavailable for the second time
now, so that sucks. I was only on Chapter 10.
The exclusive content is neat, especially McGonagall and wand
woods. I don't have much to say about it because I already
looked up spoilers before I got my welcome email and read it
all. Heh.
Fuck potions and spells. This is almost impossible on a finicky
touchpad. I only did one of each so far (alohomora and cure for
boils, which I failed), so I might try again and change my mind,
but I don't see myself doing either very often since I'm not
very competitive. Edit: I tried to do a few more spells, but the
movements are too jerky. Damn slow internet speed.
My wand is alder (blah, alder's boring; I thought pine or
hornbeam fit better, but whatever) with phoenix feather core
(yay), twelve and a quarter inches, slightly springy. I took a
screencap and uploaded it to photobucket for some weird reason.
Here it is, not that anyone but me cares:

Snazzy. :P
My house? Ravenclaw. Hmm. Not sure how I feel about that ... My
first choice was Slytherin. It fits me the most just based on
the descriptions, but I suppose I could see a little of
Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff in me. I'm still not sold on the
sorting questions. I maintain that dawn or dusk, heads or tails,
etc., has absolutely nothing to do with personality. Oh well.
Something that interests me is if I'll get the same house when I
get sorted (with some different questions) on my other account.
If so, that might slightly sway me to its accuracy. Slightly.
:-\

You actually managed to do anything on Pottermore today?

Luckily, I did! I got on early in the morning, but it was down.
Then it came back on for a bit soon after, then went down again
(and has been down ever since). I made it to Chapter 10.

I got stuck on chapter 5. Nothing happened when I clicked the
shopping list (I tried many times).

[/quote]Hmm. Did you zoom in (you can zoom in twice, too)?
Sometimes visible things only become clickable at certain
distances.

I think I zoomed in enough? There was this purple glow light
around it.

[/quote]Is it back on for you now? It is for me (I finished it),
so maybe try again. If it doesn't work, then it might just be a
glitch.

Thanks. It worked when I changed the browser. Pretty sure it
was the browser anyway!
