Ooh.  They've completed changed it.  I'm going to finish out the PoA section and then go back to the beginning.

If anyone wants to add me as a friend, I'm FelicisUnicorn105 there.

    It really is, sassy.  They've incorporated bits of reading from Stephen Fry's version too.  Plus doing the readings in the chapters count toward your total progress.

    Confession: I love the HP books and movies and re-read the series every year. Watch the movies every few months.....but I've never made a Pottermore account. Except to buy the ebooks. When it first came out everyone I know was complaining that the website sucked so I didn't bother.

    They were wrong, weren't they?

    I was a beta tester at first so I've been there right from the start.  The problem was that the site wasn't functional for the amount of people they had originally signed up.  It took forever to get it going.  And then the format wasn't quite as intuitive as some others so it turned a lot of people off. 

    It's really slick now.  My only request would be that they allow us to hide the progress bar.  I didn't see how to do that just now.

    OMG I haven't been on in foreeeeeever.  I'm going to have to look up my SN buried in my email somewhere.  This is going to be my new occupation during "me" time (i.e. late at night after the kids and hubby are finally sleeping)

    Has anybody dueled yet? I feel like I might finally be getting the hang of potions.

    I couldn't figure for the longest time why I was so bad at potions. Apparently when it says to come back in 40 minutes you need to go back to it in 40 mins, not 2 hours later.

    I did this. I was one of the Beta testers. Played for a little while and never went back.
    I write sexy books. I read all the books. I love dresses & macarons.

    I think it was so much worse at the beginning because it was all Beta version and there were just so many people trying to be on at once since it was so new. It's different than I remember it but can't quite figure out what the big differences are, I'm liking it though.

    I haven't logged on since I got beta access.  It sounds like I should revisit.

    It took me a good 20 tries practicing at potions before I got the hang of it (okay, maybe not 20, but it seemed like a lot).  Haven't practiced dueling yet.
