	Professor should also be acceptable for Hagrid, Lockhart (which you spelled incorrectly), and Umbridge. Also, Lucius Malfoy's job isn't really Death Eater, he is a school governor. You misspelled Quidditch in Krum's profession. And some of these I wouldn't even define as a "job". Voldemort's and Sirius' jobs aren't really professions at all. Also you spelled "weird" wrong in "weird sisters". You should accept multiple answers for a lot of these. Good idea, but needs some tweaking.

	j1k2l3m4:	Oct 31st, 2009 at 16:57 GMT	5 points
	Good idea, but not very well made. You should accept more answers and fix spelling mistakes.

	WelshTom:	Oct 31st, 2009 at 18:26 GMT	2 points
	Agreed. This could be a good quiz but you really need to allow a lot more things as answers.

	RS89:	Oct 31st, 2009 at 21:50 GMT	1 point
	You definitely need to accept more answers. "Member of the order of the phoenix" is not a job, and Stan is specifically the conductor of the Knight Bus.

	LUNACHICK:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 00:29 GMT	1 point
	Is death eater a job? Cool! :)

	Frosc:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 14:32 GMT	2 points
	Death eater surely counts as a sort of job, member of the order I take your point. Voldemort is only really in there for fun. The problem with putting professor for Lockhart, umbridge, etc. is that there is not much variation. Hagrid is firslt the gamekeeper anyway, and Umbridge is the chief undersecretary. I could put in specific subjects though to get round that. The spelling errors are mainly due to me making it on my iPhone by the way.

	PassTheJello:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 14:35 GMT	5 points
	This is difficult because there are so many different ways of wording the different occupations. Perhaps switch the columns so that the clue is the job and we guess the names? Then make sure it goes one by one for us to answer.

	lalaLOVE:	Nov 1st, 2009 at 18:56 GMT	4 points
	There needs to be more leniency in the answers you accept, as well as accepting answers spelled the American way (ie. defenSe against the dark arts).

	Sabriel:	Nov 2nd, 2009 at 05:54 GMT	1 point
	Yes, I agree with the above too. :) Nice idea though. But its hard to guess what word you are looking for. For example, Stan Shunpike = conductor... He is more of a bellboy or assistant type..person, lol. Or Rita Skeeter... could also be called reporter.

	max123:	Nov 2nd, 2009 at 21:12 GMT	1 point
	should it accept dada teacher for both lockhart and umbridge?got one, but not the other. also accept robe fitter for madame malkin and weasleys wizarding wheezes for joke shop

	Frosc:	Nov 3rd, 2009 at 16:27 GMT	2 points
	Thanks for the comments, this is my first made quiz after all. Sorry about american spellings being omitted, I never use them, so if someone could hightly any missed ones. Stan Shunpike, according to my source is the buss conductor. Assistants or bellboys have very different jobs. Although I can see where you are coming from with them, conductor would be the job title. Skeeter as a reporter, I guess that's fine. Dada teacher is not mentioned in any of the books ^^ Sorry, but I'm not using abbreviations or acronyms. I'm gonna put on some more professors also.

	robzalli:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 01:46 GMT	0 points
	governor is spelled wrong. Artifact can also be spelled as artefact as well.

	lalalala:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 02:44 GMT	1 point
	more answers should be acceptable. In Book 1, Hagrid is described as the keeper of the keys and grounds. I gave up because I couldn't figure out the wording you wanted on a lot of them. Transfiguration professor should work for McGonagall and she's actually a headmistress, not a headmaster.

	browneyednerd:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 02:49 GMT	1 point
	Reduce the time by at least 6 minutes.

	Frosc:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 15:29 GMT	1 point
	Transfiguration as a subject has always worked, there is no point keeping that and putting in transfiguration professor as transfiguration will trigger the answer anyway. People say I need to be more lenient with my answer, what's more lenient that the general subject? Who spells it artefact? (I'll give you the benefit of the doubt though) Browney, do you really think anyone can name 42 Harry Potter jobs in 6 minutes? (some from characters they may not be familiar with) Lala, I wasn't expecting anyone to try keeper of keys and grounds but I've put it in anyway.

	bluebonnetln:	Nov 4th, 2009 at 16:46 GMT	1 point
	great idea, but I'd definitely accept more wordings. I tried "drill maker" and "Grunnings" and several other things for Vernon that indicate that I knew his occupation, but they weren't accepted.

	midwesterndiva:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 23:40 GMT	2 points
	I got Ludo Bagman right, but it didn't accept it because I said "Head of Department of Magical Games and Sports." Boo

	max123:	Nov 18th, 2009 at 19:40 GMT	0 points
	@frosc good quiz, but robe fitter still doesnt work. (u need to seperate answers). the point i was making earlier was that to be consistent u should only have to type in the subject, just like lockhart. wasnt she also headmistress at one point?

	ThatStarGirl:	Nov 24th, 2009 at 18:53 GMT	3 points
	yeah i would accept more things, especially viktor krum - i tried just quidditch, seeker, bulgarian seeker, seeker for bulgaria and quidditch seeker and none of them worked! Also remember Ludo Bagman used to be a quidditch beater so that should be accepted for him too, as well as his ministry title.

	boston_sports:	Nov 30th, 2009 at 20:49 GMT	1 point
	i would accept voldemorts job as killing people, if youre going to include voldemort. and definitly accept more wordings, i kept trying all sorts of things and they wouldnt work. and there is too much time for this, reduce it by like 4 minutes or so.

	Jawn:	Dec 1st, 2009 at 19:04 GMT	1 point
	Good idea, as above comments it still needs a bit of work (e.g. you are specific on who Lovegood works for but not Skeeter), nice to see some more minor characters in there as well. Plus, I wouldn't say that was Tom Riddle's primary job....

	alliebreanne:	Dec 14th, 2009 at 04:52 GMT	3 points
	I LOVE that it took "dark lord" for Tom Riddle. Great quiz!

	Frosc:	Dec 15th, 2009 at 13:16 GMT	1 point
	Tom riddle's first job was shop assisstant, and I have included dark lord.

	joannabanana:	Mar 19th, 2010 at 15:22 GMT	3 points
	i think you should accept wizengamot for amelia bones. but really good quiz! :)

technically, carrow was a dada teacher, as was snape, and they were both death eaters.and why is his job professor of dark arts and other teachers of the subject are defense against the dark arts teacher?!

	abean22:	Jun 6th, 2010 at 19:22 GMT	2 points
	you should accept "conductor of the Knight Bus" and "driver of the Knight bus" as well. Possibly Lord Voldemort for riddle. Also you should make "head of magical games and sports" and "head of magical law enforcement" acceptable rather than just their department. Maybe seamstress for Madam Malkin.

	yimababwe:	Jun 10th, 2010 at 21:50 GMT	2 points
	Actually, Carrow was NOT a DADA teacher. He taught the dark arts. So, that part of the quiz is fine. :)

	Chocolatl:	Jun 25th, 2010 at 22:50 GMT	1 point
	Snape WAS a DADA teacher, as well as Headmaster of Hogwarts.

	total_randomness:	Jul 6th, 2010 at 00:29 GMT	1 point
	accept conductor/driver, etc. please?

	Ch1033:	Jul 7th, 2010 at 18:35 GMT	-1 points
	dayyyyummmmnn! you need to be more flexible with ur answers! i know what the weasley twins do cuzz they ara propur legends! yet they don't have an official name do they?! i tried "weasley wizard wheezes" and "jokers" and "buisness men" out of pure desperation :( erm...add bellatrix in here somewhere?!?!? as loyal servant ?! :/ x

	silencewall:	Jul 9th, 2010 at 03:48 GMT	1 point
	you spelled lucius wrong, but other tan that it was adecent quiz. it's hard to accept all the different variations people will think of. but do you think you could accept gaurd for dementor as well?

	metalhead228:	Jul 13th, 2010 at 05:12 GMT	2 points
	good quiz. Can you add like "firm director" or "firm owner" for Vernon?

	mgwiley26:	Jul 25th, 2010 at 19:30 GMT	1 point
	Good quiz. Only complaint - it's Madam Malkin, not Madame. Good though!

	theshow123:	Aug 6th, 2010 at 23:16 GMT	2 points
	accept death eater for amycus carrow, joke shop for fred and george, and borgin and burkes for tom riddle

	ex3:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 02:14 GMT	2 points
	Mass murderer should be accepted for Tom Riddle :)

	donnamoss:	Nov 22nd, 2010 at 20:33 GMT	0 points
	you should take shopboy for tom riddle, and definitely SPY for snape

	hoberwafin:	Dec 6th, 2010 at 01:21 GMT	1 point
	MAlfoy's job is not governor or death eater, he works at an unspecified ministry job. And I typed "head of the department of magical games and sports" and reworded it every way I could and it wasn't accepted.

	CincyDavid:	Dec 20th, 2010 at 19:56 GMT	1 point
	good idea for this quiz, but not the best execution

	lunalover010501:	Dec 27th, 2010 at 20:10 GMT	1 point
	snape is a dada taecher and the headmaster.

	pinklily109:	Jan 22nd, 2011 at 02:52 GMT	1 point
	Ludo Bagman was also a beater for some quidditch team. And I tried just about every variation I could think of for Madam Malkin: shop owner, robe shop owner, robes for all occasions, madam malkin's robes for all occasions, and even business woman, and nothing came up. That needs fixing.
