    I would think none HP words would make it all the more funny. Though I'm guessing we'll have rules explained to us.

    Nyota's Heart Thanks for the tag, E-Sis, but I'll pass this time. I haven't seen any HP films, and know 0 about it. Good luck to all players.

    :)

    LOL! Neither do I, but that'll make sending in prompt answers even more hilarious, once the hostess fills in the blanks. [face_laugh]

    Mad Libs consist of a book that has a short story on each page, but with many of the key words replaced with blanks. Beneath each blank is specified a lexical or other category, such as noun, verb, place, or a part of the body. One player asks the other players, in turn, to contribute some word for the specified type for each blank, but without revealing the context for that word. Finally, the completed story is read aloud. The result is usually comic, surreal and somewhat nonsensical.
    There will be as many rounds as there are players. So let's say there are six players, which in turn will mean six rounds. Every round, one of the players will serve as a judge.

    At the beginning of each round, I will choose a text from whichever fandom we're playing, which I will not show. Here, as an example, I've chosen a line from Admiral Motti:

    "Your sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' hidden fortress..."

    I will choose which of the words that I want to be replaced and I will then post a list for the players.

    For example:
    1. Adjective
    2. Noun
    3. Plural noun
    4. Adjective
    5. Noun

    It's then up to the players to PM me back the words within 24 hours and I will then post the different variations on the text. I will not reveal which text belongs to which player, since the current judge will have to pick the text he or she thinks is the funniest.

    Let's continue the example. Player 1 sends me this list of words:

    1. Nutty
    2. Cupcake
    3. Dolls
    4. Yummy
    5. Candy

    The text will then be:

    "Your nutty devotion to that ancient cupcake has not helped you conjure up the stolen dolls, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the rebels' yummy candy..."

    After the rounds, the winner is the player with the most picks. Or, hey, players - we could theoretically have everyone get one point, and then everyone wins and gets colors.

    Sorry for the epic delay, guys. Tried to get on after Rosh Hashana, but my new apartment's Internet was a bit wonky.

    The original quote, from Dumbledore:


    It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.


    I Are The Internets here are your choices:


    It takes a great bird of bravery to walk to our bears, but just as much to zip to Harry trees.

    It takes a great branch of bravery to drop to our sneakers, but just as much to zoom to it golfballs.

    It takes a great table of bravery to tap dancing to our ladybugs, but just as much to demonstrate to you passengers.

    It takes a great Spaghetti-Os of bravery to prance to our mugs, but just as much to enunciate to you reasons.

    Okay, last delay. No more holidays!

    Again, from Dumbledore (he really has the best lines):

    Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean it is not real?

    Juliet316 you are the judge:

    Of course it is lassoing inside they photograph, Harry, but why on civilization should that eradicate it is not potato?

    Of course it is marketing inside whomever pinhead, Harry, but why on freshman should that violate it is not salamander?

    Of course it is painting inside her basket, Harry, but why on microwave should that spin it is not carpet?

    Of course it is king inside you Terminator, Harry, but why on him should that shot it is not pizza?
