Questions might include:

How late can I start participating?
You may join in at anytime, however everything is due by Friday March 31 at 11:59pm (HOL time).

What is Candy Land?
This activity is inspired by a children board game that’s seen many different versions over the years. Participants may note where characters and locations have loosely drawn from a combination of candy land details, with some Ravenflaw/Harry Potter themed alterations,

Additional Info: Candy Land (1984 Version)

Where do I find passwords for accessing the subforums??
Every week a new code will be released in the Password Pastilles thread.

What if I can't (or don't want to) do a Task?
If accomplishing parts of this activity becomes impractical or undesirable for any reason, please feel more than encouraged to ask for an alternative if one hasn't been provided, suggest something, or skip that section altogether. Our goal is to have fun! We simply wish to support your most enjoyable experience.

How do I post Graphics?
A few popular Image Hosting sites are Postimages, Imgur, and Imgbb where you can upload your work, then receive a link toward sharing elsewhere. The “BBCode” to attach on The Roost forum submissions (which can be accomplished automatically for you by the click of a button from options at the top of your editing page) is [*img][*/img] with url in the middle (i.e. [*img]link[*/img]) — NOTE: You would remove the asterisks (*) in order for this code to be successful. They’re added here to display the example effectively.

Can I come and go as I please?
Absolutely! There are no rules against passing over anything you're not interested in, or doing tasks out of order. No pressure at all.

Do I have to post submissions to the forums?
While we love seeing people posting/interact together should that be their preference, if you would feel more comfortable turning in some or all of your work via e-mail or private message where prompted otherwise, that's perfectly fine! While creative tasks submitted privately may be sent to any of us, those which require an objective answer (i.e. puzzles) MUST be sent to the presenting organizer. ALL tasks sent privately must also include Prof. Sindor Aloyarc to assist with end of activity tracking.

- Silvana, Alex, Chantel, & Sindor

I know bad things tend to happen to Slytherins who pursue Rowena (or is that her daughter?)... but the game sounds fun enough that I'll risk it!
