Because we all know that we can miss those from time to time. Anyway! Here is where we will post important announcements. Any guild announcements will be in this thread, so if you missed the guild announcement, you can find it here. Please note the timestamp on each announcement, however, as some of these could be old and outdated.

7/6/14 - Summer and Hogsmeade~

Currently Accepted students. This is really important. Please update for the new year, and change the number in your title "~ Accepted (#)" to your current year, as well as the appropriate sections within your profile before July 29th. If you do not update the profile, the Profile Manager will assume inactivity, and move the profile to the Whomping Willow.

New sixth years, remember to add in your OWL scores from the previous year. Graduating students, remember to add in your NEWT scores, if you chose to take any. Failure to do so will result in the moving of the profile to the Whomping Willow.

New third years! You are now eligible for electives! Make sure you sign up for all the ones you want! Second years are eligible for Advanced Flying! Please note that all students above third year must also apply for electives, and sixth and seventh years must choose all the classes they will be attending. The requirements for NEWT level classes may be found here.

Note that if your student is an entering first year whose title is "Pending", you don't need to do anything. So just sit back, relax, and watch chaos unfold. C:

Those with profiles in Hogsmeade should note that profiles skeletons have been updated! Check here for more information!

8/8/14 - UPDATES. SO MANY UPDATES.

All profiles that were not updated were moved to the Whomping Willow. If you want to reinstate your student, simply dig up the profile from the Whomping Willow and PM Utsuha Moon the link to your updated profile.

The Current House Occupants thread was recently updated! Currently accepted first years are added to that list. If your student is in the wrong house, year, or any other changes you wish to be made, please contact Utsuha Moon.

Attention 5th and 7th year students! OWLs and NEWTs are open and students may begin testing (if you haven't already). Please head on over to the subforum and start!

10/06/14 - Decision of a Lifetime

It's that time of year again! Time to choose your class electives! The 2026-2027 elective list will remain unchanged until 10-18-14, so for those of you with more than one character, it can be used as a reference to double check which character had taken which elective. But don't worry, if you don't get a chance to send your electives in at first, you will be able to request to have them checked. More information on that will be released in a future announcement.

10/27/14 - Ze train! Ze train!

The Hogwarts Express has arrived in Hogsmeade! For returning students, please post your characters going to the carriages, for new students, please post them waiting for the professor that will take them to the castle. If your character has not been marked Pending, you will have to wait until your student is looked over before posting them.

Also, for third years and up, if you haven't yet chosen your electives, please do so now. Second years have the option of taking Advanced Flying. The form to do that can be found here.

Also, if you have not done so yet, please make sure that you have changed your student's age and year in their profile. If they have been moved, then please PM Utsuha Moon to request for them to be moved. Any moved characters can be found in the Whomping Willow, and you must change their year and age before they can be moved back.

11/9/14 Tick Tock Tick Tock! Don't be Late!


Welcome to the beginning of a new year!

Professors, it is time to open your classrooms. Keep in mind that most classes are scheduled to update on Saturdays. If you wish to request a different day, PM Essy ze Ninja.

Third Years and Up, if you haven't already sent in your Class Electives, please do so! If you're missing an elective or noticed a mistake on the Class List , you may PM Essy ze Ninja to edit it.

First years, please update your profile to reflect your sorting. Do NOT change your "Pending" status to that of "Accepted." To notify the Student Profile Manager that the house has been added, simply add "House Added" next to your pending status. For example:
"John Smith ~ Pending *House Added*"

Failure to add the house before November 15th, 10 AM EST will result in the removal of the profile to the Whomping Willow. If you wish to retrieve your character you may PM Diamond Wales.

Quidditch Try Outs are open! All students are encouraged to try out!

And last but not least, check out the Marauders Map to soak up the rumors of Hogwarts!

This school year, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is hosting a Yule Ball, open to professors and students of all years.

The ball will open on the 25th of November and continue on through to the 26th of December.

On an unrelated note! Fifth and Seventh years, remember that you have until the end of December to complete your OWLs/NEWTs.

Also, Professor Expectations has been updated, so if you have a professor, be sure to check that out!

Also, please feed your chickens.
