	Are you sure Diggle isn't mentioned before Mcgonagall in SS? Great quiz.

	paranoid_android:	May 7th, 2010 at 21:31 GMT		4 points
	@midwesterndiva: Have double checked this. Professor McGonagall gets mentioned half a page before Dedalus Diggle.

	good quiz, but you should accept tom riddle jr for Thomas riddle.

	paranoid_android:	May 9th, 2010 at 18:47 GMT		5 points
	@AJAX22: Thomas Riddle is Tom Riddle senior's father...

	Aw, man, I though I was gonna get Dedalus Diggle for SS as soon as I saw this quiz! I just love that name, I never forgot it from the first time I read it, lol! Great quiz!!

	Great quiz! So hard - what a brilliant challenge. Well done.

	cirith:	Oct 11th, 2010 at 03:46 GMT		6 points
	Fun and challenging quiz, I really enjoyed it! Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn''t Tom be a nickname for Thomas? So I would think Tom would be an acceptable answer for both riddle sr and his father.

	You shouldn't need to have the last name for Frank Bryce - you don't for any other. Other than that great quiz! Really got me thinking!

	Is there a reason that Lucius Malfoy requires a first name, but no other answers do?

	jeopardybound:	Oct 29th, 2010 at 04:58 GMT		10 points
	Also could you accept "Mason" for Mrs/Mr Mason.

	PiiXiiE:	Nov 4th, 2010 at 19:27 GMT		5 points
	i agree with the suggestions about Frank and the Masons. (and maybe "Scabbers" accepted for Wormtail?) but tough quiz! good job! n_n

	bob_the_blob:	Nov 7th, 2010 at 22:27 GMT		9 points
	why doesn't it accept "bryce" for frank bryce? and i agree with Cirith about accepting "tom" for thomas riddle. otherwise great quiz!

	Hermy:	Nov 13th, 2010 at 14:26 GMT		5 points
	Great quiz. Only got 45, but it was still fun. It wouldn't accept Malfoy, which I would recommend changing since Lucius is the only Malfoy in the quiz.

	parafreakx8:	Nov 28th, 2010 at 16:20 GMT		9 points
	i happened to have a copy of prisoner of azkaban in front of me while taking the quiz and aldabert waffling isnt mentioned, bathilda bagshot is. Check if you want.

	nyjet624:	Dec 13th, 2010 at 20:52 GMT		5 points
	good idea, but could be a little better done

	Erinmusik:	Dec 25th, 2010 at 01:19 GMT		7 points
	I agree that just "Mason" should be accepted... I tried several variations and still didn't get them. And I personally think that just "Riddle" should be accepted for all the Riddles, but maybe I'm just a sore loser. ;) Cool idea for a quiz, anyway. :D

	swiftfish08:	Dec 26th, 2010 at 05:16 GMT		2 points
	You should change this to first ten names mentioned in the book because some of these, Adalbert Waffling, Wendelin the Weird, and Bungy the budgie, for instance, aren't actually characters. They're just names that are mentioned, they have no part or substance in the story.

	briskt:	Dec 26th, 2010 at 23:43 GMT		6 points
	Please improve the detections in this quiz to catch all last names

	Laura4734:	Jan 4th, 2011 at 17:25 GMT		10 points
	Really good idea for a quiz, but you need to be more consistent - either accept both names, first name only, or surname only for all of them.

	The Muggle Prime Minister is named first in Half-Blood Prince

	I'm nearly certain Narcissa andBellatrix were mentioned early on in HBP in Ch 2 called "Spinner's End"

	vupiccolo08:	Jan 30th, 2011 at 06:58 GMT		2 points
	@ex3 Yes that's true, but all ten of the characters listed above were named in Chapter 1 of HBP

	I remembered Bungy the Budgie, Ted and Dot ... forgot Hedwig though ;)

	ashw731 - Philosopher's Stone is the original British title. It was changed to Sorcerer's Stone for the US because the publishers thought kids wouldn't read it with that title. JKR says it's her biggest regret with the books, agreeing to that change.

	teddylupin_snape:	Jul 31st, 2011 at 01:36 GMT		2 points
	@Joesh: hes actually the muggle prime minister's assistant....got them all for books two and three, proud of that for a first try...

	TerraTheTerror:	Sep 9th, 2011 at 02:58 GMT		2 points
	@bob_the_blob: While I agree with you, I would like to point out that none of the Riddles are named Thomas. The males' name is Tom. It says so on Voldemort's father's grave.

	Yuallica:	Sep 8th, 2012 at 21:04 GMT		1 point
	The names 'Thomas' and 'Mary' never come up for the Riddles in this chapter (are they given in the books anywhere?) so I think 'Riddle' really should be accepted for Voldemort's grandparents, even if 'Tom Riddle' is needed for his father. Otherwise great quiz- I spent ages trying to remember the name of the budgie!

	Roccondil:	Sep 25th, 2012 at 20:44 GMT		1 point
	Kind of silly that you accept either first OR last name for so many characters, but you have to have Bertha Jorkins' full name. That should probably be changed.
