Posted April 26, 2012 Yeah that really is odd. I hope they can fix it up or it will clear on it's own. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 26, 2012 I did finally receive the mail, and tried changing my password, but the site is still saying that it's the wrong one. Which it can't be, as I typed it in moments after setting it. So, I still cannot access my account. I am getting pretty mad over this. I sent them a mail yesterday, explaining the problem. Hopefully they will help me get into my own account again. I really do not want to start all over again. After all, I had explored through the first book, I had gathered several thousand house points, and I like my wand and username. If I lose all that, I'll be pretty grumpy D: Share this post Link to post
Posted April 27, 2012 Well lets hope they can work it out so you can keep your username and house. I was sent the standard email saying "they will be working on the bug in time depending on how bad they think it is" . I was able to get the potion that had been brewing to clear out some how and did get it to brew the first part with no problem...the next part is giving me the same trouble now that the first part had been giving me and I blew up two more caldrons and have to start all over again. Now when I try to brew the boil brew it says I did not put the right amount of crushed fangs into the caldron...I did what it told me to do...put in 4..I put in 4 and it gets ruined over and over.

Did you look at the number next to the cauldron? It tells you what the site thinks you've added. I sometimes have to add more than what the instructions say to get the correct number. To me it usually happens when I add things too fast. Edited April 27, 2012 by Raistlin24 Share this post Link to post
Posted April 27, 2012 Well, losing my HOUSE wouldn't be the worst thing, I didn't want to be in Gryffindor anyway It's all the time I've spent on that account gathering stuff that is the worst, really.. I'd hate having to start all over again. I have also received that standard "we'll get back to you at some point"-mail. Bah.. I hope it'll be soon! I'm wondering if I should just make another account and start playing at it, then at least I've gotten a head start at getting back to where I was, if they don't want to help me get my DawnQuill account back.. And ditto what Raistlin said. I've had to put in more than what the recipe said, because the count didn't agree with me. But, also as Raistlin said, don't stuff loads of things in your cauldron at once, though the count hasn't gone up yet. Some things take a while to register. The count doesn't go up once you drop your powder, it goes up when most of the powder has entered the cauldron. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 27, 2012 Is there any word on when the Chamber of Secrets is out yet? Share this post Link to post
Posted April 27, 2012 News just arrived that they are working on it.. Hopefully that means it won't take long before it's launched. Well, I decided to make a new account and start working on it, in case they won't help me gain access to my DawnQuill account, or they just take awfully long at it. I don't want to be stuck without access if they suddenly provide more fun >< Share this post Link to post

Posted April 27, 2012 Very true, Socky! Probably best to not get our hopes up about that Share this post Link to post

I sometimes have to add more than what the instructions say to get the correct number. To me it usually happens when I add things too fast. Yes I was looking at the number on the side, and I added the fangs in slow and I waited till the number was up for a few seconds before putting in the next batch, And I would lose another caldron over this happening. And even with another new caldron I would get the same message. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 28, 2012 How did you contact them? Some items I've collected aren't appearing in my trunk. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) How did you contact them? Some items I've collected aren't appearing in my trunk. Go to help (bottom of the page) -> other -> what's next -> need more help? .. There's where they've hidden the contact form, so you can report the problem Please note that I have made a new account. My new username is ShieldCastle2139. I have sent friend requests to all the friends I had with my last account (SparksSword30800) so if you get one you will know who it is from and I hope you will re-friend me.

Posted April 28, 2012 I haven't started adding people to my new account, as I don't know if I'll keep using it. I thought that just depended on whether the Pottermore people would help me gain access to the other one, but now I find that even if I gain access to that again, I will be tempted to keep using this new one. Got sorted into the house I wanted from the start and everything Share this post Link to post
Posted April 28, 2012 (edited) So what's wrong with doing that? I got sorted this time into Hufflepuff house. and my wand is Holly with phoenix feather core, 12 and a quarter inches, surprisingly swishy. Edited April 29, 2012 by Jedi40 Share this post Link to post
Posted April 29, 2012 @Jedi: Nothing really wrong with that (I even have the same wand on both accounts <3), it's just that I feel it would kinda be more right to keep playing on the account I had from the start. So I need to argue with myself for a bit before I can decide on what to do Well, of course the whole argument will be for nothing if I don't get the other account back. Then the choice will be very easy indeed @Stromboli: Nice duel, that :3 Share this post Link to post
Posted April 29, 2012 Wow, grats! While I've mostly gotten 140+, I've never gotten 143+. Share this post Link to post

Posted April 30, 2012 Speaking of good duels - I just did my first valued at 145! Wohoo Share this post Link to post
Posted April 30, 2012 Ahh I see. Glad you got the same wand for both accounts, mine is different from the first one I had as is the house I am now in. How'd you manage that? I got the same wand every time I went through (I had several accounts before I persuaded it not to sort me in to Gryffindor. I was happy with any house but that one). Share this post Link to post
Posted April 30, 2012 Oh my, I haven't played in a while! I feel like I'm letting my fellow Hufflepuffs down D: Though it is fairly ridiculous how much we're trailing my now -.- Share this post Link to post
Posted April 30, 2012 I left my hufflepuff account, not because I didn't like Huffepuff I was fine with being a Hufflepuff, but it just didn't feel me no matter how hard I tried to persuade myself that i should stay. I am now a Ravenclaw, which I agree with more. I will occasionally go back to my Hufflepuff account and earn them some points though. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 1, 2012 How'd you manage that? I got the same wand every time I went through (I had several accounts before I persuaded it not to sort me in to Gryffindor. I was happy with any house but that one). I have no idea... I answered the wand questions the same way as I did the first time and yet I got a different wand . Same with the house questions, though some were different this time around and I think that was why I got a different house this time. Still have yet to get the house I wanted.
