Cedric Diggory / George Weasley

[Annielogic]

Always very interesting reading your campaign ideas and proposals, very indepth for all species, sentient and plant alike. Well done, fantastic work!

Lovely picture, Duckie!

Thank you, SusanBones, AnnieLogic, Tweedlidam and all the others. Your kind words of praise mean a lot to us.

Everyone was so supportive of our small, technically-challenged and undermanned team, it really was a great experience.

I'm actually sorry it's over... I hope the next forum-wide game will also involve teams, I found out what a great way it was to make friends!

Sorry it has taken me so long to get in here and congratulate my team mates for running a great campaign. I hate that our final tally wasn't any higher, but it wasn't due to our hard work. Each and every one of you, Fleur, Bill, Min and the Kid, did an awesome job and worked very hard...overcoming RL challenges and technological hurdles to pull off what I thought to be a great campaign. High fives and hugs all around for all of your hard work.

I do want to extend a special thanks to V-Duck and Boushh for their invaluable help and their selfless reaching across the aisle to help us out when we were in need. The world could take lessons from you two.

I also want to say that the best part of this whole experience was becoming friends with you...elections certainly come and go, but friends are always there for each other. All of you, feel free to contact me if you ever need anything!!!

[gottriplets]

Congratulations on becoming a Sixth Year Bill! I just graduated to a Fourth year myself!

[boushh]

And congrats on graduating into the next year gottriplets and Muggle_Magic.

Thanks, and bigger Congrats to you for your new title. I kinda miss the Bounty Hunter thing though, it was yours alone, whereas this one you share with your team... But if you prefer it that way, that's cool!

And we're definitely going off-topic here.

Ahem... Anybody has news of Cedric and George lately?

[FleurduJardin]

Susan, almost all the picture manipulations, the playing card, the logo, etc. were your work. Before boushh and Ducky came over to help, you were our only picture wizard, I mean witch. Ryan was our poet, good that his poems had been posted before his computer crashed, and we could use them in our Final Thread.

One thing I'll remember from this contest is how to make movies. - though without boushh, my videos would only have been slide shows. I really have to learn how to "rip" a movie clip from a dvd, but let's not get into technical details.

Our minuscule team did its best, we are eternally grateful for the help and encouragement received, and we made new, good, true friends. What more can one ask of an on-line game?

Congrats back to you, Susan!

Two of my posts have mysteriously disappeared, I don't even know which ones. But that gives me the opportunity of getting to post my 1001st post again. One thousand and one nights, here we come! [staff edit: no Hogsmeade surprises in here, please]

Bill, it looks like you're preternally destined for the Moral Fiber winner. You got that in the Triwizard Tournament, we got that here twice, for the banner and for the whole campaign. You should trot out that cup again.

Yes. If I can't get to be "Assistant to Cedric Diggory", maybe I could be "Moral Fiber Specialist".

That's an idea, trotting out that cup again. Maybe next time I change my avatar.

Bill,

Maybe they could give you a UT that says "I have Moral Fiber for breakfast"...wouldn't that be a hoot??

I love it, Susan! That would indeed be a hoot. But it seems we're not up for UTs... The only team who doesn't have UTs.

[vampiricduck]

Not true!!! , other teams did not get them either. I just think you need to gather the troops and demand some Moral Fiber for breakfast. Quite frankly, no one deserves it more.

Thank you, kind Lady Ducky. I really would like Moral Fiber for breakfast. Fleur could be Special Assistant to the HISD, Minisinoo his speechwriter, Susan his official portraitist, the Kiddo his poet - but then we should have assistants to George too, to run errands for him, take in the orders, etc.

Other teams don't have new UTs? I'll have to look around more closely. I seemed to me that at least the active members of every team got one - maybe not the absentee members who put in their names and dropped off the radar screen.

ETA: I looked more closely. ALL the other teams have members with UTs except ours. Not all members of every team has them, but the most active members do.

[gertiekeddle]

As far as I know within Magical Election Game only Neville/Hermione and Snape/Molly team (in both teams the most active members only) got UTs since both lead the poll by far. Other UTs you see are months or sometimes years old or actually custom.

The Voldie team also has at least one new UT connected to the election, as far as I can tell. They were nowhere near leading (though we're the first to acknowledge they do deserve kudos.)

If the two leading teams, why not the active members in the last two teams?

You realize, don't you, that you just killed any hope you ever had of getting that coveted user title?

If you mean Voldemorts8thHorcrux's title, as far as I'm aware, it's not connected with the elections, but merely with the character Voldemort, as V8 (forgive me, V8, but I'm not up to spelling your name out twice, minding all its subtleties ) has been his [very vocal ] fan since forever. It's like ignisia's Snape-related usertitel - and Iggy was on Luna's team.

[gertiekeddle]

Thanks Yoana, that's true. Again: nobody expect the active members of the two best teams got usertitles for this current game.
The admins did, however, hand out many usertitles over the last six years toomany members for the most different reasons. Some came as award for other games which happened in the past, some for individual help and advice or other reasons probably even the admins don't recall all in detail.

Either that, or you'll get a title that you'll hate and will beg the Admins to take it away. Be careful what you ask for and all that.

I love your avatar, though.
