For those of you interested in attending Azkatraz, the Harry Potter Symposium, they have extended the $145 rate until April 15th, if you can come, think about it, it's going to be a lot of fun.

I, along with SerenityRose and MikeCrim will be hosting a panel discussion at the event on "Wizarding Physics: Gamp and beyond" where we will dig a little deeper into Rowling's magical world and hopefully understand the limits of magic in the Potter universe.

In addition, we are hoping to have a HogwartsLive meetup at the event for people attending Azkatraz who play on HogwartsLive.

I hope to meet you there.

A longtime member of this site, AislingBlack, and her family would like to spread the word about her niece Mikyla.



Mikyla needs open heart surgery before she is 1 year old for two heart murmurs. She recently had the pinched aorta fixed but flat lined. They were able to revive this smiley, happy girl but now she is stuck on a breathing tube. Her family are not yet asking for donations to help in the care of her. All they request is that the world get to know this loving child through her Caring Bridge website by reading her journal, subscribing to updates on her, and signing her guest book.

When Mikyla recovers from this nasty health problem, her daddy will be show her just how much human compassion the world had for her.

So please we request of you to go to her website and sign her guest book:

Then print out her flier to pass around at your schools, churches, jobs, and social events: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v427/AislingBlack/Mikyla2.jpg

Pass her website along to all you know.

Thank You!

Warner Bros. released a brand new trailer for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the sixth film in the series.

If you're not already aware of this you can earn donator points by getting people to sign up for Hogwarts Live via your referral link. I've recently changed everyone's referral links to make them easier to remember. While the old referral links still work, it'd be nice if you could start giving out the new easy-to-remember referral links, which look like this:

http://hogwartslive.com/r/Username

Please note Username should be replaced with the name you use to login (i.e. the name that comes after Firstyeargirl or whatever your title happens to be); for example my referral link would be:
http://hogwartslive.com/r/Danilo

By giving your friends this link you will automagically receive 50 points every time one of them reaches level 10.

There's more about this on the Referrals page in the Prefect's Lounge.

Sorry, about the downtime but as you see the site is back up now. We have some ideas to fix the crashes and we'll let you know what we're gonna do about it soon.

Thanks for your continued patience everyone!
