How old did you have to be to enter the Triwizard Tournement? Was it 17 or 16?
17...yup, that was it.
:o :o :o :o The JKR made a HUGE mistake in GoF. Okay here is MY theory:
In Harry's 3rd year, Cedric Diggory was in his 5th, as was Fred and George. But in Harry's 4th year, Cedric, Fred, and George were all in their 6th year. You're supposed to be 16 in your 6th year. Therefore Cedric should've only been 16. BUT he was allowed to enter in the triwizard tournement while the Twins were not. Interesting, eh?
Aren't I the smartest person in the world to have figured that out? 8)
Hmmm....very interesting...never thought of that! :D
well, that is pretty interesting. i didnt think of that, but maybe cedric had an early birthday like Angelina Johnson. I dunno. its possible :) :)
;)anything's possible!!! Especially at Hogwarts! ;)
Well, if they had the Triwizard Tourney start in January, I could believe that... but it happened before Christmas.
Hmmm... tricky... Shui, uusa very smart! Maybe he was kept down a grade??? ???
Uh... it said in the fouth book he was around 17... but that was a mistake, 'coz he couldn't be 17 until after December... yeah... now I'm really confused... Prami found another mistake. IT also said that (in the 4th book), after the World Cup thingy, when the death mark and junk happened, that Hermione used her wand (for lumos, all of them did), and they didn't get in trouble, and Hemione wouldn't use her wand since it's illegal.
??? It's illegal to use your wand? ???
If you are under age, yes. Once your outta school, then you can use your wand, elsewhere, you get in trouble by the Ministry (hence the second book, and third.. sorta).
;DOh yeah. I kinda forgot. :-[ *Nervous laugh*
But wouldn't it be ok to use Lumos? I mean if a muggle saw it they'll prolly think it's a flashlight since that's all it's doing....
It's still doing magic. And it's not for the good of muggles, but for the underaged wizards... I.. think.. ??? I can't remember.
Wow :o :o :o
Yes but...oh nevermind! ::)
lol. Shui you are a SCHOLAR!
lol yes! you should wear one of those hats! ;D
Lol! ^_^
If you read between the lines, an underage wizard can use his wand under 'special sercumstances'. Like the Quidditch Cup raid (Hermione), and fighting Voldie Moldie (Harry - duh!). *Nod nod*
Other-wise, you're dead meat with the Ministry! :P ^^;;
Lol! *picures Shui with a schalor hat on* Amusing! ;D
*curt nod* hey does anyone here have a pogo stick?
The ones you eat? (LOL) Or the ones you bounce on?
there are edible pogo sticks? COOL! but no, i mean the ones you bounce on!
I used to1 gave it it to my younger sister!
I have one, haven't used it in a while though....
same..
i wanna edible pogo stick!!!
lol! it's one on a sitck!
A Hotdog on a stick!
I've never had a pogo stick sadly enough... hey, how did it get on this subject?
And what's a scholar hat? Or, what does it look like?
I think they mean a bowler hat......
Ooooo lol

What's the matter Ron? And Shui, I agree. I hate the sophomores at my school. And I CAN'T STAND the kids that will be freshmen next year. They're sooo annoying!
