In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry returns for his fifth year of study at Hogwarts and discovers that much of the wizarding community has been denied the truth about the teenager’s recent encounter with the evil Lord Voldemort. Fearing that Hogwarts’ venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about Voldemort’s return in order to undermine his power and take his job, the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge, appoints a new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the Hogwarts students. But Professor Dolores Umbridge’s Ministry-approved course of defensive magic leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared to defend themselves against the dark forces threatening them and the entire wizarding community, so at the prompting of his friends Hermione and Ron, Harry takes matters into his own hands. Meeting secretly with a small group of students who name themselves “Dumbledore’s Army,” Harry teaches them how to defend themselves against the Dark Arts, preparing the courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that lies ahead.

This contest ends 7/30/07.

I despise Harry Potter, as it represents all that is atrocious about contemporary popular tastes in fiction. All the same, I love these contest, so here's my entry:http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/archtorsveld/mockery1.jpg

And a variation on theme:http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/archtorsveld/mockery2.jpg

It says that site is unavailable. You need to host the image elsewhere because we're unable to view it.

[Obscurus Lupa]

Mynx- I like the entry, but it's a pain in the butt to open up each individual square and wait for the page to load...

[Mynx]

I know it isnt fun opening and loading, but, sorry, thats all i was able to make.

[arg_zombies]

I'd make one of these....

[JeromeMoiso]

Unfortunately, I didn't consider the fact that this was my first post ever. Considering its contents, I think I may have inadvertently classified myself as creepy.




God Dammit...

[hypnotic_peach]

hahaha
don't worry, i've seen worse things on the forums.

[Mynx]

When do we get the results? :confused:

[hypnotic_peach]

[Obscurus Lupa]

Rog is busy with moving and such. We'll get the results eventually.

[toonamil]

and im using my get impatient really fast powers to get impatient really fast.

That's abuse of power, man! Don't do it! You'll kill us all!


Except Steve. He's behind a rock.

[Obscurus Lupa]

This should've been my entry:

http://a629.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/77/l_18e8d212b2dff410a27996800e223c14.jpg


I WOULD'VE WON WITH MY PICTURE FROM FIFTH GRADE!

[toonamil]

Needs more burning if you ask me.

[hypnotic_peach]

That's abuse of power, man! Don't do it! You'll kill us all!

Muahahahahaha!!!

[JeromeMoiso]

I think they forgot about us... oh well, posting redonk lists about the things you hate are probably more important anyways! Maybe next week, instead of announcing a winner, we can get a grocery list or something! :)



I kid, I kid...

[Protoclown]

We're currently voting on the winner in a SECRET THREAD in a SECRET FORUM!

[LackofInnovation]

The suspense is terrible. I hope it will last...

[Mockery]

Alright everybody, the votes have been cast and the winner is Yggdrasill's "gyspy / wear your face like a mask" entry by a landslide. Yggdrasill, please send me a PM with your full name and contact info so I can send out your copy of the game.

As always, thanks to all of you who participated in this latest contest. I swear these things are getting better and better each time. Also, thanks for your patience with us casting our votes... it's mainly my fault since I've been so busy with Comic-Con, BlizzCon and moving to a new place.

Speaking of which, as soon as I'm done moving, you can expect some more contests to go up on the forum shortly after. All kinds o' spiffy prizes await!

[JeromeMoiso]

Congrats brotha!

[LackofInnovation]

I don't know, I would have gone with Obscurus Lupa's 5th grade picture. If only he submitted it before the contest ended...

[MLE]

Ygg's is the only one I ended up laughing out loud to, so I'm glad he won.

[Yggdrasill]

oh baby yes fill my prize hole with sweet prizes

[Obscurus Lupa]

Man, I thought "A Tipical Day at Hogwarts" was a shoe-in.

Congrats, Yggdrasill. I'll best ya next time!

[Yggdrasill]

I knew I would win, girl. By the way you apparently didn't even read the rules.

[hypnotic_peach]

congratulations, dude
i'm looking forward to the next contest.

[Obscurus Lupa]

Yggdrasill- My fifth grade picture was a joke. I know it had to be screenshots from the game. Also, it was submitted AFTER the contest ended. :P

[toonamil]

Congrats. I thought Harry's Secret Place would work, but oh well. They are other things I can do like eat humans.
