[03:06:28 pm] * Eiji has joined #gryffhousemeeting

[03:06:38 pm] [RandomNinja] Bridget?
[03:06:53 pm] [Bridget_Chlum] just letting you know i have to leave, my mom is screaming her head off at me right now

[03:07:21 pm] [Neha|HW] Bibi Bridget :)
[03:07:26 pm] [Bridget_Chlum] bye neha
[03:07:32 pm] [Neha|HW] and Hola Evebee :)
[03:07:35 pm] [RandomNinja] Anyway, everyone, first order of buisness
[03:07:45 pm] [RandomNinja] this affects all you first years for the most part

[03:08:06 pm] * Bridget_Chlum Quit
[03:08:25 pm] [Eiji] Hola~. =)
[03:08:27 pm] [RandomNinja] Now, you'll notice that growing crowd of first years outside your den, the new ones that is.
[03:08:45 pm] [RandomNinja] Basically, the den is not big enough for all of you
[03:09:04 pm] [RandomNinja] so come end of December/beginning of January, you shall be re-sorted

[03:09:04 pm] * GhettoChild-1|Pin Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[03:09:09 pm] [RandomNinja] but into the big people dens :)
[03:09:31 pm] [RandomNinja] Congratulations! You survived the first leg of the adventure!
[03:09:43 pm] [Distracted] well... some of you

[03:09:52 pm] * BenAckerman has joined #GryffHouseMeeting
[03:09:59 pm] * Neha|HW collects everyone into her den

[03:10:05 pm] [RandomNinja] It also means that Neha, Missa and Mia will be the new terrorists on the block
[03:10:18 pm] [Jebus] Well, to be fair, they were always terrorists
[03:10:42 pm] [Echizen] Wheeee
[03:10:49 pm] [Neha|HW] *G*
[03:11:04 pm] [RandomNinja] So you'll be moving out to new caves, the new students shall take on Mira and her army of vengeful demons
[03:11:42 pm] [RandomNinja] Any questions? Particulary for Neha or Missa?
[03:11:59 pm] [Echizen] [---is still not awake despite what nick may say

[03:12:08 pm] [AmandaH] ?
[03:12:14 pm] [RandomNinja] Amanda?
[03:12:30 pm] [AmandaH] How are we going to be sorted into the dens, just randomly, or do we choose?
[03:12:41 pm] [Distracted] randomly
[03:12:58 pm] [rebalexi_] ?
[03:13:06 pm] [Neha|HW] Choosing dens wouldn't be really fair. All of you might want to come into my den, and we can't have that happening, now can we? XP
[03:13:12 pm] [RandomNinja] So no, you cannot say "I wanna be with Neha because I think Missa is scary"
[03:13:13 pm] [Neha|HW] (im just kidding of course)
[03:13:19 pm] [Neha|HW] LOL
[03:13:23 pm] [RandomNinja] which is a legit reason, but still...
[03:13:25 pm] [Distracted] and it'll take place after the current challenge... so continue with that ;)

[03:25:29 pm] [Jirou] In the month of January I will be reopening the quidditch tryout topic. There will be changes made so it will be a new post. Basically you have to follow the directions EXACTLY and I do mean EXACTLY as I don't allow people who can't read to even try out for my team. ;)
[03:25:41 pm] [Jirou] Keep your eye on the boards. Very important stuff happening.
[03:25:47 pm] [Jirou] Okee quiddy done

[03:26:01 pm] [Emilor] ?
[03:26:15 pm] [Jirou] Emilor?
[03:26:37 pm] [Emilor] is it possible to be good at quid w/out being very good at irc?
[03:26:58 pm] [Jirou] You must have IRC or SNAK to play quiddy on GQT.
[03:27:08 pm] [Jirou] However if you pass, we'll help you set it up and teach you what you're doing.

[03:27:28 pm] [Gwyd] ?
[03:27:29 pm] [Emilor] but if I don't know how to change color, or change my name or that kind of stuff, ...

[03:27:39 pm] [Jirou] You don't need to change color.
[03:27:42 pm] [Distracted] *mirc ;)
[03:27:43 pm] [Jirou] Gwyd?

[03:27:56 pm] [Gwyd] How do you spell "whiskey" in England?
[03:28:03 pm] [Kamio] o.O
[03:28:11 pm] [Emilor] beer

[03:28:16 pm] [Jirou] Tha'ts a great question and welcome to the debate of the century
[03:28:19 pm] [Jirou] whisky.
[03:28:30 pm] [Jirou] At least according to the book in my bag.
[03:28:35 pm] [RandomNinja] *bops Emilor*

[03:28:46 pm] [Emilor] ?
[03:28:54 pm] [Gwyd] Really? My son in law is british and he said whiskey - it's the answer on one of the quidd bots.

[03:29:08 pm] [RandomNinja] Emilor?
[03:29:24 pm] [Jirou] Yeah, and half the time the answers are wrong. That's what happens when you use a four year old set.

[03:29:47 pm] [Emilor] isn't there somewhere to play quidditch on hol for practice?
[03:29:52 pm] [Distracted] *burns question set*
[03:29:58 pm] [Jirou] Weeeell.
[03:30:11 pm] [Jirou] GQT offers its bot to gryffindors for use.

[03:30:11 pm] [Gwyd] !
[03:30:17 pm] [Jirou] So you get trivia questions
[03:30:22 pm] [Jirou] The rest is just pick up games.
[03:30:35 pm] [RandomNinja] Gwyd?
[03:30:37 pm] [Jirou] And Gwyd if its about spelling I do not want to hear it.

[03:30:44 pm] [Emilor] but you can get your speed up, right?
[03:30:51 pm] [Gwyd] I can help Emilor, so we don't waste time here.

[03:30:57 pm] [Distracted] and your hard work is noticed a lot more if you use our bots ;)
[03:31:00 pm] [Jirou] Botting is the best way to enhance your speed.

[03:31:04 pm] [Emilor] ta very much!
[03:31:08 pm] [RandomNinja] thank you Gwyd :)
[03:31:12 pm] [RandomNinja] so anything else?
[03:31:12 pm] [Jirou] Yeah. I'll prolly laugh at people who try out and don't use out bots.

[03:31:14 pm] * Jirou coughs
[03:31:25 pm] [RandomNinja] (that was a hint people)
[03:31:27 pm] [Jirou] our*

[03:31:28 pm] [Gwyd] ? (last one)
[03:31:32 pm] [Distracted] because we don't pay attention to the hol bot
[03:31:38 pm] [RandomNinja] Gwyd?

[03:31:55 pm] [RaeB] !(random comment so you can choose to ignore)
[03:31:57 pm] [Gwyd] Is it possible to get a list of some british spellings for us in the US who spell everything wrong?

[03:32:01 pm] [Jirou] No.
[03:32:12 pm] [Gwyd] Ptthhh!
[03:32:13 pm] [Jirou] I'm in the US and I don't have one. :)

[03:32:14 pm] * ChanServ sets mode: +o PaRmE

[03:32:15 pm] [Kamio] !
[03:32:25 pm] [JadeThaerd] !

[03:32:28 pm] [Jirou] And I've been playing for 5 years now.
[03:32:31 pm] [Jirou] You can make one though.
[03:32:37 pm] [Jirou] My lovely Kamio.
[03:32:47 pm] [Jirou] And Rae Sorry Rae

[03:32:58 pm] [Kamio] Uhm, I believe both US and British spellings are accepted *nods* *bounces off*
[03:33:03 pm] [Distracted] nope
[03:33:18 pm] [Distracted] unfortunately.
[03:33:30 pm] [Jirou] We're still panning things out with the quiddy board.

[03:33:30 pm] [Gwyd] If someone makes a British list, I'll make the American one..
[03:33:42 pm] [Jirou] The american wouldn't matter.
[03:33:47 pm] [Jirou] British answers only
[03:33:58 pm] [Jirou] Rae you going to say something random?

[03:33:59 pm] [Gwyd] It would so we Americans would know which words were different.
[03:33:59 pm] [RaeB] LOL, it's okay, it's just a random thought due to my out-of-itness: I wonder how JK Rowling would fare playing quiddy here o.O Yeap that's it and I'm like okay bye XD

[03:34:14 pm] * Lurking has joined #gryffhousemeeting
[03:34:15 pm] [Kamio] !
[03:34:16 pm] [Jirou] Jade what's your comment?

[03:35:30 pm] [Jirou] NO MORE QUIDDY.
[03:35:33 pm] [Jirou] NEXT TOPIC.
[03:35:34 pm] [Distracted] note: if you are looking for a list of US and British differences... i believe the HP lexicon has some. though it won't make much of a difference because refs usually go by what the answer in the question set is.
[03:36:05 pm] [Jebus] *wrenches the mic away from Missa*
[03:36:07 pm] [Jebus] *clears throat*
[03:36:14 pm] [Jebus] SILENCE!

[03:37:40 pm] [Jebus] Seriously, you guys are this ... far from getting silenced.
[03:37:51 pm] [Jirou] About that time a topic will appear in the announcements asking for new writers. There is a very specific outline that you must follow in order to become a writers so read the announcement carefully and follow the instructions exactly. (ARE WE NOTICING A THEME HERE?)
[03:38:06 pm] [Jirou] Gwyd

[03:38:34 pm] [Jirou] Ah thank you for bringing that up.
[03:38:40 pm] [Jirou] You must be a writer before you are an editor.
[03:38:46 pm] [Jirou] And when you edit you must still write.

[03:39:35 pm] [Jirou] ANy last question about Paw Print?
[03:40:02 pm] [Jirou] Okee day. *gets off soapbox*
[03:40:21 pm] [Jebus] *trots up*
[03:40:28 pm] [Jebus] Okay, next I want to talk to you guys about the Den Challenge
[03:40:39 pm] [Jebus] This month's challenge has you creating a holiday for Boris to celebrate.
[03:40:51 pm] [Jebus] All the details can be found here: http://www.gryff.net/cr/index.php?showtopic=4585
[03:41:00 pm] [Jebus] But I may remind you taht if you participate, you're eligible for rubies
[03:41:04 pm] [Jebus] But ONLY if you participate.

[03:41:12 pm] * TastyEdibleXD has joined #gryffhousemeeting
[03:41:13 pm] [Jebus] And the best holiday wins quite the nice ruby payoff
[03:41:28 pm] [Jebus] So I'm going to strongly encourage you to get active in your dens, and have a lot of fun, and be as creative as possible
[03:41:37 pm] [Jebus] Any questions? Comments? International border disputes?
[03:41:40 pm] [Jirou] !
[03:41:44 pm] [Jebus] Missa?
[03:42:03 pm] [Jirou] I'd just like to remind those in my den that I'll give you manes corresponding to the amount of effort you put into the challenge.
[03:42:15 pm] [Jebus] Oh, and a reminder, it's due on the 20th, which is sort of early
[03:42:21 pm] [Jebus] But I didn't want you guys working on it over the holidays
[03:42:21 pm] [Distracted] yay bribery >>
[03:42:25 pm] [Jebus] Oh, and admirable offer Missa :D
[03:42:33 pm] [Jirou] I always do that. :)

[03:42:42 pm] [Gwyd] !
[03:42:46 pm] [Jebus] Gwyd?
[03:42:53 pm] [Gwyd] Hear that, Desert Kitten Leader?
[03:43:00 pm] [Distracted] haha
[03:43:04 pm] [RandomNinja] (who's not here)
[03:43:12 pm] [Distracted] she'll see later ;)
[03:43:14 pm] [Neha|HW] rofl
[03:43:15 pm] [Jebus] You shouldn't need to be bribed to participate
[03:43:16 pm] [Jebus] Although it helps
[03:43:21 pm] [Jirou] I have 6 people in my den really.
[03:43:22 pm] [Juli] bribery only works when your den leader is loaded with manes ;)
[03:43:24 pm] [Jirou] So I need the bribery.
[03:43:24 pm] * Neha|HW pets her den for being ahead of the game
[03:43:26 pm] [Neha|HW] for once.
[03:43:52 pm] [Jebus] Don't forget to email your stuff though
[03:43:59 pm] [Jebus] Or nothing will happen! And remember the due date!
[03:44:01 pm] [Neha|HW] !
[03:44:06 pm] [Jebus] Nehahahahaha?
[03:44:07 pm] [Neha|HW] or rather
[03:44:08 pm] [Neha|HW] ?
[03:44:22 pm] [Neha|HW] If we have pictures, do you want us to send them as attachments, or provide the link?
[03:44:30 pm] [Jebus] please provide the link
[03:44:32 pm] [Jebus] It'll be easier
[03:44:37 pm] [Neha|HW] okie dokie :)
[03:44:55 pm] [RandomNinja] final questions?
[03:45:01 pm] [Jebus] Well, if that's all, I'll hand the mic to...whoever
[03:45:05 pm] [RandomNinja] Missa
[03:45:16 pm] [RandomNinja] she's making up for the meetings she didn't present a topic in ;)
[03:45:29 pm] [Jebus] *tosses the mic to missa*
[03:45:31 pm] [Jirou] Wow. I'mma popular today! See what skipping work does for ya?

[03:45:53 pm] * Summer has joined #gryffhousemeeting
[03:46:09 pm] [Jirou] Anways. I'd like to point our new newbies in the general direction of this topic:
[03:46:16 pm] [Jirou] http://www.gryff.net/cr/index.php?showtopic=4574
[03:46:32 pm] [Jirou] Also known as the READ ME FIRST topic in the Hear Ye, Hear Ye section of the board.
[03:46:36 pm] [Jirou] This topic will show you the ways.
[03:46:44 pm] [RandomNinja] read it at the risk of being called dumb by Missa
[03:47:00 pm] [Jirou] Coz if you don't listen to it I will giggle madly and make fun of you all while deleting your validation for the gryff board.
[03:47:21 pm] [Jirou] You should check the validation thread for some of the current comments.
[03:47:40 pm] [Jirou] And yeah that's it.
[03:47:58 pm] [RandomNinja] (by the way, yes she is usually like this. But she's too much fun to put in a cage :P)

[03:48:14 pm] * BenAckerman Quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
[03:48:35 pm] [RandomNinja] OKAY! NEHA! *tosses the mike*

[03:49:00 pm] [Neha|HW] *puts Missa in her cage*
[03:49:11 pm] [Neha|HW] Time for the important announcements :D

[03:49:15 pm] * Distracted watches Missa break out
[03:49:31 pm] * Jirou goes to cuddle with teh Kamio

[03:49:31 pm] [Neha|HW] First off, I'd like to remind all of that the Autumn Term comes to a close THIS FRIDAY
[03:49:33 pm] * Jirou is now known as Echizen
[03:49:36 pm] [Neha|HW] (that's the 16th)
[03:49:38 pm] [Kamio] (Woot)
[03:49:46 pm] [Neha|HW] so if you haven't sent in any of your homework or whatnot, do so now.
[03:49:57 pm] [Neha|HW] Because we could really use some points.
[03:50:05 pm] [Neha|HW] Also
[03:50:20 pm] [Neha|HW] Sign ups for classes begin after Christmas
[03:50:28 pm] [Echizen] !
[03:50:36 pm] [Neha|HW] Yes, Missa?
[03:50:49 pm] [Echizen] I gots more points than you doooo.
[03:50:52 pm] [AmandaH] ?
[03:50:53 pm] [Echizen] And you.
[03:50:55 pm] [Echizen] And you.
[03:50:56 pm] [Echizen] And you.
[03:50:57 pm] [Neha|HW] I know.
[03:50:58 pm] [Neha|HW] *G*
[03:51:01 pm] * Echizen coughs
[03:51:03 pm] [Neha|HW] Yes Amanda?
[03:51:14 pm] [AmandaH] Two of my classes haven't even posted their exams yet, so...
[03:51:35 pm] [rebalexi_] ?

[03:51:38 pm] [Neha|HW] Your best bet is to try and contact the professor of that class.
[03:51:41 pm] [Neha|HW] and see what's going on.
[03:51:47 pm] [Neha|HW] if there's no response.
[03:51:47 pm] [Echizen] Which class?
[03:51:54 pm] [Neha|HW] you can't do much about that.
[03:52:00 pm] [Neha|HW] Yes, Rebalexi?
[03:52:01 pm] [AmandaH] Astronomy II and DADA 1
[03:52:07 pm] [KatieP] !

[03:52:10 pm] [Echizen] Phhhtcha.
[03:52:32 pm] [rebalexi_] I have one class that the Proffessor seems to have disappeared.
[03:52:39 pm] [RandomNinja] That happens sometimes
[03:52:41 pm] [RaeB] !
[03:52:44 pm] [Neha|HW] *nods*
[03:52:45 pm] [RaeB] okay ?
[03:52:50 pm] [JadeThaerd] !

[03:52:57 pm] [Neha|HW] Katie, Rae and then Jade :P
[03:53:00 pm] [rebalexi_] ?
[03:53:03 pm] [KatieP] The DADA1 exam is going to be posted in January along with decembers, which will be for extra credit...
[03:53:15 pm] [KatieP] decembers assignment*
[03:53:17 pm] * Summer is now known as Summer|away
[03:53:33 pm] [RandomNinja] Wow, Katie's on top :P
[03:53:55 pm] [KatieP] :)
[03:54:00 pm] * JadeThaerd wants to say that not all classes have exams
[03:54:08 pm] * Summer|away is now known as Summer|feedingbrother

[03:54:12 pm] [RaeB] My Magical Musicology professor (Ruben Orion) has gone missing. Owes me points, which is okay. But no replies on a couple emails I sent.
[03:54:26 pm] [RandomNinja] Ruben likes his vacations to Middle-earth
[03:54:27 pm] * Summer|feedingbrother Quit
[03:54:28 pm] [RandomNinja] no seriously
[03:54:31 pm] [RandomNinja] he does this often

[03:54:36 pm] [RaeB] Exams due 16th Dec, but third lesson (which is already past) isnt even up.
[03:54:45 pm] [RaeB] Oh XD Okay.

[03:54:46 pm] [RandomNinja] studying elves and the like
[03:54:48 pm] [Echizen] I'll take him ot the vet and get him fixed or something...teach him to stop taking them vacations....

[03:55:06 pm] [RaeB] I know he's taking neuroscience or something.. medical school
[03:55:09 pm] [RaeB] must be busy
[03:55:18 pm] [RaeB] okay! that's all \o/

[03:55:21 pm] [RandomNinja] Listen everyone, sometimes professors don't fly in on time to get points or exams up.
[03:55:29 pm] [RandomNinja] Fault of the professors really
[03:55:44 pm] [RandomNinja] but there's little you can do but poke them constantly and complain
[03:56:05 pm] [Echizen] I can give lessons on how to do that.
[03:56:14 pm] [Echizen] I've been doing it for years.
[03:56:26 pm] [RandomNinja] Regardless, if it's a large enough problem, usually it's resolved one way or another
[03:56:28 pm] [Neha|HW] okay
[03:56:41 pm] [RandomNinja] but for now, the best we can give is a "well, focus on your active classes"

[03:56:51 pm] * Neha|HW nods
[03:57:19 pm] [Neha|HW] as well as class sign up starting after christmas
[03:57:30 pm] [Neha|HW] I was saying that all of you need 2 quills in order to move up to the next year
[03:57:32 pm] [Jebus] pick your classes wisely
[03:57:39 pm] [Neha|HW] yeah

[03:57:40 pm] [Gwyd] ?
[03:57:51 pm] [RandomNinja] this is where talking with older students come in real handy
[03:57:56 pm] [Neha|HW] Yes, Gwyd?

[03:58:06 pm] [Gwyd] What happens if you get two quills in first term?
[03:58:17 pm] [Neha|HW] Then you're guaranteed to pass the year.
[03:58:21 pm] [Neha|HW] however
[03:58:30 pm] [Neha|HW] you won't turn into a second year, say until next september
[03:58:35 pm] [RandomNinja] You don't need to work for the rest of the year. :P
[03:58:40 pm] [Neha|HW] you need to wait until the whole school year finishes :P

[03:58:41 pm] [Gwyd] WOOT!
[03:58:43 pm] [RandomNinja] but you'll still need to earn points
[03:58:43 pm] [KatieP] !
[03:58:43 pm] [Neha|HW] but working is good.
[03:58:46 pm] [Neha|HW] points are good.
[03:58:50 pm] [Neha|HW] Katie
[03:58:53 pm] [RandomNinja] or you'll be set passive

[03:58:58 pm] [KatieP] I was just about to say....
[03:59:01 pm] [RandomNinja] and we'll evict you from the Common Room
[03:59:03 pm] [KatieP] that if you don't work..
[03:59:08 pm] [KatieP] no points for us :(

[03:59:15 pm] [Neha|HW] yesh.
[03:59:19 pm] [Gwyd] I'd never not work... just can't do it.
[03:59:25 pm] [RandomNinja] Or, actually, Missa will, and cackle while doing so.
[03:59:33 pm] [Neha|HW] If you don't get, I believe, points in between 90 days, you are set to passive.
[03:59:40 pm] [Neha|HW] which is why getting points is important.
[04:00:05 pm] [Neha|HW] Winter term starts on Jan. 9th...
[04:00:06 pm] [Neha|HW] soooooo
[04:00:12 pm] [Neha|HW] ENJOY YOUR CHRISTMAS
[04:00:15 pm] [Echizen] You can get points just by submitting a haiku to Paw Print. How hard can it be? *g*
[04:00:21 pm] [Neha|HW] BUT GET READY TO WORK ONCE AGAIN.
[04:00:22 pm] [Neha|HW] *nods*
[04:00:36 pm] [Distracted] yeah. you should all check out the prose and cons thing!
[04:00:36 pm] [Neha|HW] Yepp, points are not only earned through classes.
[04:00:38 pm] [Distracted] it rocks!
[04:00:40 pm] [Neha|HW] keep that in mind.
[04:00:47 pm] [Neha|HW] AND IM DONE.
[04:00:51 pm] [Neha|HW] WITH THE IMPORTANT STUFF.
[04:00:55 pm] * Neha|HW tosses mic to Parme
[04:01:04 pm] * PaRmE grabs mic
