xx Firefox Bug
March 04, 2010, 01:32:37 AM by Declan O'Dwyer
Hi folks <3

I just installed the latest greatest Firefox and had almost a nervous breakdown when I saw what MH look liked using that brower. (Yes, I switched to Google Chrome a while back.) For some reason, the colours of the website are displayed in a really strange way that looks nothing like the designs we came up with in photoshop.

So if MH looks wonky to you, I have found a solution. There is a firefox plug in that corrects the screwed up colours. Link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons/policy/0/6891/76670?src=developers

xx [Contest] Roleplayer of the Month - February
February 12, 2010, 04:55:36 PM by Charmaine Cloutier

Roleplayer of the Month - FEBRUARY

Many moons ago, we had something on Magical Hogwarts known as the "Roleplayer of the Month" contest. We've decided to bring it back because it was a pretty fun competition, and we thought that the members might like to partake in it again.

So here's how it works:
Once a month, you will be given a scenario and a deadline. It is your job to submit ONE in character response to this scenario before the deadline. Your response should be creative; the more creative the better as long as you don't go too crazy. The response should be no longer than 700 words because the admin team does not like to bleed from the eyes. Every member with a Gringotts account is eligible to submit something. You may, however, only submit one response from one of your characters. Please post your submissions as a reply to this thread.

Prizes:
The winner may have his/her choice of 50 posts, 200 sickles, or 8 points in the FPP.

Last Month's Winner:

Cliona Morfessa

Congratulations! Please PM me to let me know which prize you would like.

This month's scenario:

Incorporate the follwing words into one of your posts on the board: Bright, Firewhiskey, Flamingo, and Spring.
Post a link to the post where these words appear as a reply to this thread.

DEADLINE: March 1

xx [Nominations] Best Post In A Fortnight
February 12, 2010, 04:42:26 PM by Charmaine Cloutier
Overview: Magical Hogwarts prides itself on being an advanced Harry Potter roleplaying site. We couldn't have attained this status without having some really fantastic writers as drivers. Accordingly, we'd like to take an opportunity once every fourteen days to award two members for their extraordinary posting. In order to do so, we've decided to bring back an old contest with some new inclusions.

How It Works: I will open up nominations for the best post in a fortnight once every two weeks. When I do so, you will have two weeks to nominate a post from any thread on the board that (fits within the time period posted in the "you may nominate posts from" section) to be considered during voting. Nominations will last for two weeks before the thread is closed. When nominating a member for the contest, please include a brief summary of the post you are nominating so that it can be included in the voting thread. A voting thread will be opened once the nomination thread has closed. Each nomination thread will run at the same time as the voting thread for the last fortnight's competition so that there will be plenty of opportunities to win and less delay between rounds!

Questions? Feel free to PM Charmaine Cloutier with any inquiries.

Prizes:
Member Choice:
150 sickles or 10 posts
Admin Choice:
200 sickles or 20 posts

Currently Accepting: Nominations
Nominations Close: February 26
You May Nominate Posts From: February 9 to February 26
