Part II: How To Play Quidditch

On the Quidditch Pitch two threads will be created, one that is to be RPed in by Quidditch Players and the Umpire Only and the other is for everyone else to RP in as if they are watching the game. Chasers will be placed into pairs (one from each team). One pair will begin and then a question will be asked. The person who answers it correctly then will take control of the Quaffle. That person chooses who they will throw it to and then the person they choose to throw it to, and their partner, will answer another question which determines who catches the Quaffle. This is how the chasers will play.

Once the chasers believe that they are at the goal the person in current possession of the Quaffle and the keeper will be paired to ask a question, just as with the chasers, and whoever answers the question correctly will either catch the Quaffle or score a goal. With beaters the beater determines which person they would like to hit a bludger at and, again, the beater and chaser must answer a question in the same nature of the keeper/chaser and chaser/chaser questions.

The seekers role will, however, be different. A small picture of a snitch will he hidden in a thread on the site. Any post will be modified by an administrator and it is the seekers job to find it though they can role-play in the game thread as if they are looking for the snitch.

There will be a separate thread for the questions. Characters RP as if they are playing and when it comes to passing and scoring, etc they will answer questions in another thread. It will be this thread that the seeker replies with the location of the snitch and the first seeker that replies will have caught the snitch.

All points that are scored will go to the various teams house point count.

PLEASE NOTE THAT NO-ONE IS ALLOWED TO INFORM THE SEEKERS OF THE TWO TEAMS PLAYING IF THEY FIND THE THREAD THAT THE SNITCH IS LOCATED IN. INFORMING THEM OF THIS WILL RESULT IN THE LOSS OF HOUSE POINTS. THIS GOES FOR ALL OTHER TEAM MEMBERS AS WELL.

Once the Quidditch teams have been filled the Quidditch Captains will recieve information on training sessions and games, etc. Times of games and who will be playing will be posted on the bulletin board when the time comes.

The teacher will state in their class rather it is a roleplay class or a lecture class. In the roleplay you will of course roleplay learning and talking to the teacher and in lecture style the teacher will post up the lesson and give you the homework after it.

All homework will be pm'ed to the teacher and they will grade it.
