I've decided it's time for a new trivia game. There may only six books in the official series, but considering that there's over 3000 pages of story amongst them, plus two supplemental books, and three movies (at least the fourth will probably be released before this thread totally dies), and we'll even allow personal stuff about J. K. Rowling to be in play.
Anything Harry Potter-related is in play, if anyone hasn't read the latest book, or seen the latest movie, be warned that plot points from things you don't know yet are bound to be revealed.
I'll kick it off with the following question:
What two items did Snape accuse Harry of stealing from his private stores, and who actually had stolen them?

Argh! I know who it is but I can't remember what the items were and I don't have the books for reference. How irritating...

Don't have the books either, but I can do I believe: - Gullyweed for the Tri-Wizard Tourny in #4, which was actually stolen by Dobby. - Ingredients for the potion to turn Harry and Ron into Crabbe and Goyle in #2, which was actually stolen by Hermoine. Good enough?

Close enough, Cobie...the thing stolen by Dobby was actually called Gillyweed.
As for the potion ingredient, it was boomslang skin. However, while Hermione did steal it in book 2, the accusation Snape made in book 4 was more likely based on theft of the stuff by Barty Crouch Jr., who had to continually make Polyjuice Potion so he could stay disguised as Mad-Eye Moody.
Cobalt Kid, you're up!

Wow, very detailed Chaim!
Off the top of my head:
How many times has Harry been able to listen to the Sorting Hat sing his yearly poem & what were the reasons he missed it?

Hm. That one I know I can't answer unless I look at the books, which I'm trying purposely not to do for this game (I hope others are too!).

Well, I thought I knew it, but after checking my answer, I found that I was wrong

Wow, that one went over like a lead balloon.
The first word is "Ottery." Now can anyone finish the village name?

With hexes I think. She hexed a boy from her year and Slughorn saw her and thoght she was good at it (because of course she had been practicing tyhe previous year in the DA).

I waited patiently, not wanting to make this thread into a "Keller shows off how obsesses he is with the Potter books."
But I'd rather do that than let the thread totally die. It was the Bat-Bogey Hex.
