Post your QUAFFLE, then post a new chain."

Yes Jenny we are aware. We’ve apologized and we were addressing it.

[Jammin Jenny]

Cool. Post a new chain when you have one. You can't use the one you posted before you announced your QUAFFLE was fixed. That wouldn't be fair or in line with the rules.

Again, yes we are aware. And again, we are in the process of addressing it. And truthfully, I think we owned up, we apologized, we admitted we were addressing the problem, so I’m really unclear as to why that isn’t the answer you’re looking for?

[Jammin Jenny]

That is the answer we were looking for thank you. I think I'm probably just feeling a bit beaten down at the moment...



What is the current score anyway? Gryffindor 80, Slytherin 0?

Squawk away!

[Shannon]

After spending an hour on the bench with dunce caps on per orders of a very irritated Madam Hooch to give Slytherin time to strategize, and fending off a surprise kangaroo attack on Chava, Team Gryffindor are back on their brooms and ready to score....

Have you seen some of the stuff Karen’s been posting in the other match thread? Really cute. Not as dreamy and beautiful as your pic, but definitely cute. Y’all are making me wanna go google....

[Jammin Jenny]

It is really cute.

GOAL!

[Jammin Jenny]

So what is the score now anyway?? I've lost track LOL

[Elen]

I did some digging and searching and found this (Sonia posted that)

If a chaser is knocked out by a beater, can they still read for the quaffle if it is broken, or are they completely benched until a successful score is made?

If the Quaffle is broken, it resets the chain, therefore, the knocked out chaser is back to the game.


PS. My post was written before Quaffle was broken + I am not psychic to predict that our Keeper will finish so fast after I posted Beater post.

Ha. I’ve got no idea. We’ve just been plugging along, and trying to coordinate everybody and searching for books that work. And every once in awhile coming up for air. Lol!

[Jammin Jenny]

You guys are freakishly fast! Thanks for the info though - that's what I thought should happen so I'm glad it's what the rules say. I'll tell our Beater she doesn't need to revive our Chaser.

They changed the rules in the captains group, (Its the first match—we get all the tweaking lol)

The chaser gets back in, when either the beater reads them back in or if the other 2 chasers score. But they can read for the Quaffle.

We are fast?? Stacie and Nicole Natalie are like XMen readers!!!

No she’s got to read her back in.

[Elen]

The score is 60 - 0

Thanks, Shannon. Rules have changed so much from the beginning. So, Natalie still has to read and finish a book to save Snowtulip.

Mods are testing this game on us. xD

[Jammin Jenny]

Okay - good thing we got that clear as mud now.

So we are still reading Snowtulip back in the game per message #208

As far as I have understood Sonia, breaking the quaffle wikll not put the chaser back in the game. In order for the chaser to get back on the broom, a beater must read the book to defend her or the other chasers must make a score on their own.

EDIT: Sorry Shannon, didn't read all the messages through before answering, I see now that you have already said this:P My bad!

[Eldarwen]

Mmmh, our beater will be reading her back in as soon as she has some free time (you know, the sleep and work thing hehe).

Thanks, Silje!
