If the answer is not in one of my books it is beyond my ability to know it. Shhhhh!

My what a gore-filled night! Oh well, more books for me. Ideas, anyone? Shhhhh!

I have to agree. With all this senseless killing, some books may get damaged! Now Shhhhhh!

Uh.... yes they're toys. And thanks, I think.

Seven of our own? At least they weren't books. My precious books....

Thanks for the very nice comments. @Legostein: I agree that dark gray could look better but I don't have those pieces in dark gray. I hope the black doesn't look too bad.

That comment may or may not have been part of the inspiration. The other half is really my experience with my daughter at the grocery store.

Finally had time to finish my entry. Even Jedi masters have to do their own grocery shopping. Can Yoda help it if he really enjoys riding in the cart? Won't you give him a push? The shopping cart by itself. A higher angle. "An action figure you will buy me?" Like my MCW contest entry, this was an idea that once it struck me was too funny to be ignored. It probably won't win but it gave me a fit of the giggles when I first thought of it. The scale is actually somewhat larger than minifg scale because I could not build a satisfying cart that was both large enough to fit Yoda in it and still small enough not to look ridiculous with a regular minifig pushing it. Instead I imagine Yoda pleading with the viewer to give him a push. I know overall as well that the entire thing is not as large as most other entries but I did push the size limit for my collection of tiles and certain colors of bricks. Thank you for looking and possibly voting. Link to Flickr for higher resolutions

Wizard Duel Round 1 Diana Fabray | 5------Vs.-----Johann Peterschmut | 5 Crucio ~ 1 -------------------- High ~ 0 Expelliarmus ~ 0 ----------------------- Crucio ~ 0 High ~ 1 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 Protego ~ 0 ------------------- Protego ~ 0 Mid ~ 1 ----------------------- Silencio ~ 0 Health: 5 --------------------- Health: 2 Hoping to continue his vengeance streak, Diana Fabray ambushes fellow Slytherin Johann Peterschmut as he returns to the common room. She sneaks behind him and employs the cruciatus curse. He tries to turn the spell on her but she deftly disarms him. Fabray hit Peterschmut with another spell before he can recover his wand. Finally regaining his wand, Johann produces a shield charm but Fabray inexplicably does the same. He switches to silencio but Diana beats him to it with a spell to his torso. He flies across the common room and lands painfully against a bookcase. Send for round 2 when ready.

You mean.... GIVE you one of MY books???? Shhhhhh! Go away!

Does anyone have any ideas besides recipes? Cannibalism, bah.... There's only three reasons to kill 1 Vengeance 2 Because someone returned a book late 3 Boredom

I'm here. Send the DSs.

Curse these musicians, taking me away from my beloved books. If I find them, I'll show them what happens to those who disturb my peace or don't return books. I'll fine them an arm and a leg... or a head. Shhhhh!

Wizard Duel Round 3 Philius Pylos | 3------Vs.-----Howard Adams | 4 Protego ~ 0 -------------------- High ~ 0 Mid ~ 1 ----------------------- High ~ 0 High ~ 0 ----------------------- Protego ~ 0 Low ~ 1 ------------------- Silencio ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ----------------------- Protego ~ 0 Health: 3 --------------------- Health: 2 As the third round begins, Howard tries a high spell but finds it blocked by Philius. Pylos then scores a hit with a shot to Adams' torso. He tries a high spell of his own but Howard blocks it. Next Howard tries to silence his friend but is instead hit by a low spell from Philius. Howard then blocks the last spell of the duel. The two Ravenclaw friends bow to one another and, making sure that Filch is not lurking in the hall, make their way back to their common room to discuss tactics and give each other dueling advice. Congrats, Professor, you're a practitioner now. Update your profiles.

Wizard Duel Round 3 Diana Fabray | 4------Vs.-----Okay Turkoglu | 2 Crucio ~ 1 -------------------- Mid ~ 0 Expelliarmus ~ 0 ----------------------- Stupefy ~ 0 Mid ~ 1 ----------------------- High ~ 0 Mid ~ 0 ------------------- Expelliarmus ~ 0 Protego ~ 0 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 Health: 4 --------------------- Health: 0 Diana finds her wand and cast crucio once again. Okay struggles and tries to cast a stunning spell but Diana disarms him. She finishes the duel with a shot to Turkoglu's torso and Hufflepuff collapses on the road. Diana levitates one of the scoops of ice cream on the ground and drops it, with a plop, on his unconscious face. Snickering, she walks away. Sorry, Oky, you'll have to avenge that ice cream by a rematch later. Don't forget to update your profiles.

Oops. Fixed it. Wizard Duel Round 2 Diana Fabray | 4------Vs.-----Okay Turkoglu | 3 Expelliarmus ~ 0 -------------------- Stupefy ~ 0 Crucio ~ 1 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 High ~ 0 ----------------------- Protego ~ 0 Protego ~ 0 ------------------- High ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ----------------------- Expelliarmus ~ 0 Health: 4 --------------------- Health: 2 Okay tries to stun Diana again but she disarms him and his wand bounces on the cobblestones. Turkoglu recovers it but is the victim of the cruciatus curse. He manages to block Diana's next spell and tries to launch an attack of his own but is foiled by her shield charm. Finally he disarms the Slytherin and she hurries to find her wand before the Hufflepuff can cast another spell at her. Send for round 3 when ready. I don't know how much longer I'll be up, though.

Wizard Duel Round 1 Diana Fabray | 5------Vs.-----Okay Turkoglu | 5 Expelliarmus ~ 0 -------------------- Expelliarmus ~ 0 Crucio ~ 1 ----------------------- MId ~ 0 Protego ~ 0 ----------------------- High ~ 0 High ~ 1 ------------------- Low ~ 0 Mid ~ 0 ----------------------- Stupefy ~ 1 Health: 4 --------------------- Health: 3 Diana Fabray, wanting to look good in front of her Adept peers, follows Okay to Diagon Alley and waits for her moment to pounce. Okay comes out of the the Ice Cream parlor with a double scoop cone. Diana leaps from her hiding place and points her wand at him. They both try a disarming spell but they cancel each other. Diana casts Crucio and the Hufflepuff writhes in agony. Sadly he also drops the ice cream cone. He fires a spell at her in retaliation but she blocks it. She hits him with another spell and he skids across the cobbletones on his backside. He regains his footing and hits the Slytherin with a stunning spell. Send for round 2 when ready.

Yeah, have you had that pee tested yet, Carlos?

Good game, Admiral. I don't mean to brag or anything but Hufflepuff is the only house with all Adepts! Go Team Hufflepuff!

I've seen an awful lot of school buses with a front like his MOC as well. In fact I think they're about 50/50 around here one way and the other. My suggestion would be to add a door. Probably will be easier outside of LDD once you have the parts on hand.

DS for round 3 sent. So close to adept I can taste it. Mmmmmmm.... I can Adj for KDM and Oky.

I saw it at a bowling alley once but my primary experience was with the home version. I said it that way because that's how I think of it.

Wizard Duel Round 2 Philius Pylos | 5------Vs.-----Howard Adams | 5 Low ~ 1 -------------------- Mid ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ----------------------- Protego ~ 0 Protego ~ 0 ----------------------- Low ~ 0 Low ~ 0 ------------------- High ~ 1 High ~ 0 ----------------------- Mid ~ 1 Health: 3 --------------------- Health: 4 After cleaning up from the previous round and making sure no one heard the commotion, the Ravenclaws begin their second round of practice. Philius get the first hit and tries to follow it up with another but Howard blocks the second spell. He retaliates with a spell of his own only to have it blocked by Philius. Adams then scores two quick hits on Pylos to finish out the round. Still anybody's game. Send for round 2 when ready.
