that game is great! well, the only thing is you have to do always the same things over and over, so it can get boring after a while... but until then, that game is ok. lol

Attention! Wrong link! Even in the wizarding, something wrong always happens.
Here's the correct URL, which should look a lot nicer anyway!

Post 12 by bubbygirl (Generic Zoner) on Monday, 06-Mar-2006 7:27:59

I love that game but I did get a bit bored with doing the same things. I might give it another try one day soon though.

I'm firstyearboy Thomas Lupin. I am level two with a licorice wand and flannel pajamas. I specialize in arcane runes, but I don't know much about them yet.

Post 14 by cuddle_kitten84 (I just keep on posting!) on Saturday, 25-Mar-2006 13:02:53

does someone have to refer you then? i just heard about it for the first time today.

Post 15 by skittles_freak (the freak of skittles) on Thursday, 30-Mar-2006 20:01:41

I like hl. for the person who asked about refering, no I don't think so. You can just get an account. I'm on there, but I haven't played in awhile.

Post 16 by cuddle_kitten84 (I just keep on posting!) on Friday, 31-Mar-2006 8:33:55

oh right, thanks, i'll have to look for it. thanks a lot.

Post 19 by cuddle_kitten84 (I just keep on posting!) on Friday, 21-Apr-2006 6:31:06

i got on there yesterday, i'm kaymuggle, but chose a wrong speciality, i chose dark arts instead of mystical powers, but from there, i'm stuck, people kept telling me to fight, but can't seem to find the right links to do that sort of thing. How do i go forward? any help would be appreciated.

Post 20 by OrangeDolphinSpirit (Despite the cost of living, have you noticed how popular it remains?) on Saturday, 29-Apr-2006 10:10:07

Near the top of the page, there's the link to the forbidden forest! click that, and then there'll be a link somewhere still near the top of the page that says look for something to kill. click that, and ... yeah. most of the links you use are close to the top of the page.

Post 21 by cuddle_kitten84 (I just keep on posting!) on Sunday, 30-Apr-2006 5:12:33

hehee thanks, i'm well into it now, but keep losing fights. i try to curse everything i fight, but still end up being dead.

Post 22 by krisme (Ancient Zoner) on Sunday, 30-Apr-2006 11:28:55

Hi, I was bored today and decided to get back into HL, not having much luck though. I'm stuck on the eighth level of the second year and keep losing fights in the Dueling Club. grrr! Trying to figure out how I can get more experience.

Post 23 by krisme (Ancient Zoner) on Sunday, 30-Apr-2006 11:30:40

BTW, I don't have many friends on there so if you want to add me I'm Secondyear Girl Hyacinth Goodkind.

First year girl for me, and still bloody evil. minus 320 infact! oops! Not good for Dumbledoresbabe. Lol. That's my user name on HL if anyone wants to add me to their friends, list.

Post 27 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Thursday, 04-May-2006 6:38:14

evil- 142 and still nor horcrux.

oh...and i'm a member of the dark slayers guild

Post 28 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Wednesday, 24-May-2006 11:40:52

I'm stil fairly evil, about 188, but I'm getting good. The last snowy owl I had on there seemed to hate me and wouldn't play with me or let me feed her or anything, so I traded her in for 3000 gold and got a new one. He likes to play and everything and isn't so boring, perhaps because I'm getting good.

Post 29 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Tuesday, 30-May-2006 14:13:14

i had an owl, but sold her! now, i'm a seventhyear i have a pony

Post 30 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Tuesday, 30-May-2006 19:04:42

I've done it! I'm good plus 62, but I've just been killed off in the Diagon Alley battle Arena. Aw'w'w'w'w'w'w'w'w! (punches desk hard! Boom'm'm'm'm!)

Post 31 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Wednesday, 31-May-2006 19:56:45

Tips on getting good and gaining loads and loads of those ever-so-important experience points lollol. To get good - either, help the children get out of the well, don't destroy them, give Robin Hood and his men all the gold you have on hand so they give it to the poor and spare the young nobleman after you've dualled him, don't dispatch him and walk the small girl back to the village and walk the old man in to town and rescue the princess from the cicillian kidnapper. Best go for his glass of wine. In Diagon Alley, buy the red apples from Siche's apple shop and look at the comics in Skies Bookstore and sellect Green arrow from those to gain litterally, about 6000 experience points in a day if you're incredibly lucky.

trying t work out how to use my curses

Post 36 by Telemachus (Death: the destroyer of worlds.) on Thursday, 08-Jun-2006 8:04:25

It's an alright game, I suppose. Although, having played Legend of the Green Dragon, it's annoying to see how much they've taken from that game, modified ever so slightly, and used as theirs. Not sure what the rules are with the whole creative commons license thing, so this could all be perfectly legal. Lol.

Post 37 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Thursday, 08-Jun-2006 13:16:11

I'm sure it is perfectly legal. I've had to start over again on HL. My old Dumbledoresbabe account buggered up and corrupted itself, so I'm still sending countless petitions to the Admins about it so they can wipe it off the map, but I'm now Dumbledoresmate and can't get off sodding level 2 and on to lovely level 3.

Post 38 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Friday, 18-Aug-2006 6:53:29

hey..did you all hear about the changes there meant to be making to the game?

looks like soon, there will only be 7 years, and you have to start taking real lessons

Post 39 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Friday, 18-Aug-2006 7:11:43

O wow! Sounds more er, challenging and interesting. Shame we won't hit the Ministry of Magic and stuff anymore. I'm now enchantress Dumbledoresmate on level 3, so what'll happen to things like the accounts if people've fought you know who 11 times and there will only be 7 years?

Post 40 by cuddle_kitten84 (I just keep on posting!) on Friday, 18-Aug-2006 8:49:42

gosh, i'm not sure, sounds interesting though, wonder how they'll work real lessons in. i'm not 3rd year girl kaymuggle. i couldn't believe the thrill i got when fighting voldemort.

Post 41 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Friday, 18-Aug-2006 10:21:41

well, from october 31st all players, gods, dukes what ever danilo is going to reset all the acounts to the start.

think he wants to make it like the book

Post 42 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Friday, 18-Aug-2006 18:04:18

Aw'w'w! Bugger all my hard work to get to Enchantress then! It's more fun this way.

Post 43 by Mexican Spitfire (Eating the elephant one bite at a time.) on Monday, 21-Aug-2006 9:51:15

Really? I will have to get back on there then. I think that Hl and Lotgd have the same creator. I am a third year there and I have the most expensive broom right now. Methinks will go back there for one fight! Hmm!

Post 44 by Reyami (I've broken five thousand! any more awards going?) on Wednesday, 04-Apr-2007 6:03:08

Ah, barnacles. I just tried to register, and I can't because registration's closed until Thursday.

Post 45 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Wednesday, 04-Apr-2007 6:19:09

hmmm, it always seems to be closed, for some reason

Post 46 by bozmagic (The rottie's your best friend if you want him/her to be, lol.) on Wednesday, 04-Apr-2007 13:23:37

I think they're having fairly major problems with their server. The message of the day always says they'l open Registration again permanently once they've sorted the server out.

Post 47 by Reyami (I've broken five thousand! any more awards going?) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 4:25:48

Great. So how do we know when they'll reopen?

Post 48 by PrincessCarlie (Account disabled) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 6:29:45

HL is pretty cool. I have been playing it for over 12 months. I have been the founder of 32 clans and co founder of another clan.
I heard the game will be closed in July for the reset when the entire game will be reset and changed completely.
The reset is to make the game more like the HP books, and also to help fix the major server problems they have been having.
If anyone needs help, owl me! my name is the same... wildchimp. I can help with pretty much anything lol having been there so long!

Post 49 by laced-unlaced (Account disabled) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 9:07:32

the game is closing in july? hmmm, if it means something new, i'm for it

Post 50 by Reyami (I've broken five thousand! any more awards going?) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 10:46:17

My question is "How long?" I know they're making changes, but I'm just on the edge of my seat. I've been looking for some sort of accessible Harry Potter game for ages, so when I saw this topic, I was happy as hell. *smile* That would make sense to have them change it to make it more like the books. Did someone say exactly like the books?

Post 51 by PrincessCarlie (Account disabled) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 15:20:10

The reset was supposed to happen last october but they had to change the date at the last minute. Just the other day I heard it will happen in July.
When I say like the books, I mean, to challenge teachers you take classes and answer questions and stuff, I think (not possitive) they are having a quidditch game, Only goes to 7th year, a limit of i think 300 HP (hitpoints) and a few other things to make it harder. Something about dwellings to but I cant remember that much.

Post 52 by changedheart421 (I've now got the bronze prolific poster award! now going for the silver award!) on Thursday, 05-Apr-2007 16:07:58

will have to check this out.

Post 53 by EssenceOfFaith (The Creamy Apple) on Sunday, 15-Apr-2007 19:26:27

Just a note to let anyone who sees this borad that I am a senior moderator by the name of AngelinaJohnson on hl. If any of you have questions, please owl me. Unfortunately, you can't sign up for the game right now. The new server will be up when edmund has a chance to transfer all our files over. It was only ready just last Friday. Until the new server comes though, I'll be happy to help any of you if there's anything I can do.

Post 54 by Reyami (I've broken five thousand! any more awards going?) on Tuesday, 12-Jun-2007 6:11:06

That site still isn't working.
