Well, I was just "browsing net" - the usual way to pass time, even when you are really busy; and I came across this site which has a quiz on all things about Harry Potter:
http://www.scholastic.com/harrypotter/challenge/index.htm
I, being a Harry Potter fan, just wanted to try out and test my knowledge.

Well, in the first few tries, I could hardly answer 4 to 5 questions, without going wrong thrice! What else would happen - imagine being asked "What time did Sirius ask Harry to meet him ...?" And the answers are :
  • One thirty Saturday afternoon
  • Two Saturday afternoon
  • Two Sunday afternoon
  • Six Sunday Afternoon
Well, you would hardly remember such details when you read a book... anyway, I got to know the answer after getting some of them wrong... And the maximum I could go upto was 11 questions! I was so happy, I decided to" challenge a friend" - an option that allows you to brag about your score to a friend, giving his e-mail ID.



I did that and the next day, in my mail box - I see that my fellow HP fan, Gururaj has beaten me by almost double my score! He scored a clean 25... I am thinking that either he had the HP books to refer and answer the questions (imagine how jobless anyone should be to do this!), or he should have made many many attempts to get to know some answers and he was damn lucky as well! Anyway, I will try to match him... maybe some day soon!
