For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

Being a Canadian, of course I love Toronto. My brother lives there.

The Pitstop - Leg 1

At the pitstop, the host Light was waiting for the other teams to arrive along with Pickles, Penguin, WIS, Typhoon, Susanhimmo and Princess Miyu.

Out from another smartcar, came Annohilator and Pixa.

"Annohilator, Pixa. You are team number 4." the host said. They simply shrugged and walked to where the others were.


3 teams to arrive

Leg 2

"All of you are stuck on plane this round. The tension is rising, or at least that's what the producers want!" the host said and with that the teams were off!

"WAIT!" WIS cried "LovioNeko, Roxas/DM and Dyl/CWisgood haven't shown up yet!"

"Oh yeah."

Suddenly, Dyl/CWisgood jumped out saying "Sorry, we're late! Our smartcar broke down!". Roxas/DM followed with another excuse "Our.. uh.. PLANE broke down!". LovioNeko came out, with no excuse.

"LovioNeko, you are the last person to arrive. Though I'm pleased to tell you that this was a Non-Elimination leg!" the host said "Now GO!"


Please remember to check in at the pitstop. IF you can't participate please PM me and we'll remove you for the leg.

This Leg's Items
- Yield - Delays other teams. Type Get Yield and which team you're using it on, to claim it (on this board). Also, include who Ron ends up with in the Deathly Hallows book and whether he passes the Muggle driving test or not in spoiler tags. The teams that get yielded will be delayed for 2 hours. Post quick though, cause once it's claimed: no one else can get their hands on it. Be warned though, this can cause you to have enemies. Who cares? As long as you finish the race! :D

Example :

Get Yield - Bonnie/Cylde

To all those that think the train route is fictional, it's not. It is not the route from King's Cross to Hogwarts :P

The Pitstop - Leg 2

At the pitstop, the host Light was waiting for the other teams to arrive.. When all of a sudden.. CWisgood and Dyl came out of the taxi/train (I forget)!

"CWisgood, Dyl. You are team number 1!" the host said. They were speechless.


6 teams to arrive

This clue is apparently very hard.

Challenge: Post a duel-conflict (200 words minimum) scene between Ron/Hermoine and Draco Malfoy. If you do this, recieve 2000 points. About the time when the epilogue takes place. Why, cause the other epilogue wasn't so good. :P

Will it be graded on speed, i.e. the first one to submit an entry, or on quality, i.e. the best entry submitted?
