These characters are all from the books (I would definitely not use the movies to go by in this). There is actually one character (#30) who is excluded from all the movies but is in all the books. If you have any more suggestions of anyone I forgot in this list or anyone who doesn't trigger a mine (since there are ALOT of characters) leave a comment about it and I'll see what I can do.

Sorry about the strange stats but I had to add in several characters I thought I had included but hadn't.

Molly, Arthur, and Percy don't trigger the mine. Hedwig definitely appears in the movies, but I think #30 must have changed because you've added in more (Peeves is #31, so that's definitely who you were talking about). Great idea for a quiz! And yes, Percy does appear in the Half-Blood Prince when Scrimgeour brings him to the Burrow as an excuse to talk to Harry.

Definitely a great quiz idea Davidos. You need to make sure every character which isn't in the list make it go 'BOOM'. I'd put a game note saying characters only included in 'Harry Potter Top 200' and only use characters featured in the 'Top 200'.

oh sorry yeah peeves was number 30 before i added crabbe goyle and fang. Also I used the quiz top 200 hary potter characters to find the others but some of the extremely obscure ones I didn't out in because it was taking FOREVER and I figured no one would try some of them. I will check about Percy, I was thinking about him but not sure. Also Mrs. Weasley is in the list (it might not accept Molly idk I'll check) and I guess I forgot to add Mr. Weasley to the mine list. I'll fix these.

You were correct, Percy was in all so I added him. Guess the movies messes up my judgment of that. Also I only had Mr. Weasley as a mine not arthur (fixed) and Molly Weasley (not just Molly, also fixed now) accepted. I also rearranged the order so Peeves is again number 30.

Great quiz, but still has a few issues. Eg. Filch is on the list twice, and I typed Ernie and Justin and neither set off the mine (I also tried adding their last names but I might have spelled them wrong). Once you work out all the kinks, I'd say it'd be worthy of nomination!

Sorry I got rid of the minefield bit. The game editer was spazzing and kept deleting and adding in rows and changing information. I finally think I have it stopped. Hopefully it won't do anything else weird.

Since it's not a minefield any more, maybe knock a minute or two off the time limit? 5 minutes seems a bit much; I ended up just using extra time to name all the characters I could think of.

I think Nick should also be accepted for #34. That is usually an accepted answer in other quizzes.

Given the short time, I suggest accepting "Nick" as a correct answer.

Ok, I actually thought it had already accepted Nick but was wrong so I changed it.

I never thought I would see the day when a Harry Potter quiz would see the series' namesake guessed only 79% of the time.

That's cause it started out as a minefield quiz, and so when that happened Harry wouldn't count when someone hit the mine. Still does seem strange.

Good quiz, but I think it could do with another minute, 3 is a bit tight. 5 seconds per answer doesn't give much thinking time.

Katie Bell! Noooo! (got all the others) I personally think you've got the timing just right, you don't need longer (in my opinion anyway) Nice job.

@hevabean. fudge is not in Deathly Hallows. He resigns in HBP and then in DH Thicknesse and Voldemort take over. @hevabean. also the fat lady is not in DH. harry talks about going back to his bed in his dorm but never goes there before it ends. @lucyinthesky9. Arthur is only mentioned in the first (he's not at platform 9 3/4 like mrs. weasley and ginny. Percy goes to school in the first one and then appears in all of the books (including fighting in the battle of Hogwarts.

Spectacular quiz! I loved the time where it was. I'll bet that I would have gotten one or two more if I had more time, but I like the challenge of it. Is there any significance to the order of the characters on the list?

No the order is random (doesnt change each game though). I just put them in as I thought or found out about them. Some people I tried to group who are similar together though (malfoy, crabbe, goyle)

@davidos; I wasn't saying that you were mistaken, just that I was shocked. Fantastic quiz, loved every brain-racking second of it.

Voldemort never appears in the 3rd (he also is only in flashbacks [pensieve] in the 6th book).

What makes a dog with no speaking roles and almost no plot relevance a character? Does simply appearing in the book make a pet a fully-fledged character?

He's got a name and he actually is important in some parts (he goes with Harry into the forest several times and always seems to be willing to drool on them when they come to Hagrid's hut).

@Sitsaln: How dare you insult Fang! He may be a bit cowardly, but Hagrid loves him, and he's a cute doggy! He is a living creature. And now after all that ranting I really want a puppy. :(

It's kind of sad that Peeves was in all seven books but they never bothered to show him in any of the movies. It would have been fun to see him on the screen.
