I thought I knew Harry Potter better...
This quiz roasted me and said if this were an OWL exam I'd fail it :( What did you get?

There are two innacuracies in this quiz:
1) It was Albus Dumbledore who said 'fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself' in book #2. In the films, Hermione says it. If the question was indeed referring to the films, it should have specified beforehand, but eitherway, it is atrocious that I was told clearly, after guessing Dumbledore, that Hermione says it in book #1
2) Godric Gryffindor's sword is not, in itself, capable of destroying horcruxes. The only reason it could be used for this is because it is goblin-made, so imbibes that which strengthens it, so since Harry used it to fight the basilisk in book #2, it gained the ability to destroy horcruxes through the venom it absorbed.
I sincerely hope these corrections are made.

Yeah, those two questions had me enraged. I clearly remember Albus Dumbledore saying that quote, and the sword wasn't supposed to destroy by itself, but as phoenix tears were the more "wrong" answer, I chose that and got it right.

You are 100% correct, and I got the fear of a name question “wrong” because of this.

What are the best tips or strategies to win at slots?
Hello, wikiHow! I’m a budding casino enthusiast and while I certainly know there are strategies and tactics you can use to win at something like Blackjack or Poker, how do you win at slot machines? Is there any kind of rhyme or reason to slots? I’m assuming there might not be, but the people who are into slots seem really
into slots, so maybe they know something I don’t? Any tricks to win?
