Harry Potter News
JK Rowling Reveals Pottermore! (JK Rowling's Secret Street View)

Update: Harry Potter author J. K. Rowling has revealed that the title of the mysterious project we've been following this afternoon is called POTTERMORE. Confirmation came via the projects Twitter account,@Pottermore. This news also completes the speculation of what the last letter of the project would be. Updates coming! Stay close and be sure to follow Pottermore!

The Twitter account has been updated to link to this website:www.Pottermore.com.

Update 2: As a follow up, I was lucky enough to get a preview of @Pottermore recently and it is one of the most amazing, engaging, and breathtaking additions to this fandom imaginable. More details will arrive shortly, so do stay close for the latest on Pottermore.

6 days to go...
I wonder what it could be :conf:

[Shaun]

oh god, not another book please :( it was perfect as it was

[Niall]

Why can't Stephanie Meyer take a hint and write another book too? Stupid bitch. :bored:

[CharlieO]

Probably going go be something cheesy. Looks like that if you look at the YouTube channel. But who knows.

Another book could ruin it so I'm undecided whether it's a good idea. And if she has it's clear she is just doing it for the money so....

[Glenn.]

I wouldn't mind a book, but not from Harry's perspective.

[Smithy]

Why can't Stephanie Meyer write ?

idk :sad:

[Doogle]

idk :sad:

Genuinely laughed out loud. :laugh3:

[Niall]

idk :sad:

[Vicky.]

idk :sad:

:bored:

[BBfanUSA]

if there's another book I think it should be a prequel surrounding Harry's parents at hogwarts or focus on Harry's kids adventures at hogwarts

[Jarrod]

Maybe it is Harry Potter because the Copyright is Harry Potter and Pottermore Characters...

[Shaun]

Niall honey don't bring up Stephenie in a thread about JK, that's like bringing up Sticks in a thread about Shakespeare.

[Tom4784]

I reckon it'll probably be that enclyclopedia she was one about doing a few years back. I kinda hope it's a new series though, She could have been giving herself room for a spin off with the epilogue. Perhaps a series with Teddy Lupin or Harry's kids.

[Jessica.]

omgz I don't know what it is but if it's even a little to do with Harry Potter then it's enough *excited*

[Niall]

Niall honey don't bring up Stephenie in a thread about JK, that's like bringing up Sticks in a thread about Shakespeare.

I'll bring up Stephanie whenever I like. http://www.greendaycommunity.org/Forum/public/style_emoticons/Dark/hmph.png

[Scarlett.]

It's a MMORPG, I'm sure xD

That would be EPIC!

[Callum]

4 hours until the big announcement, so exciting! I'll kinda miss hovering over the owls though to make them move on the YT page, it's addictive.

[Jessica.]

[Callum]

37 minutes! :amazed:

[Patrick]

Why can't Stephanie Meyer take a hint and write another book too? Stupid bitch. :bored:

Because everyone knows Twilight is sh*te and the author of the book was clearly writing a story aimed at little girls who are only just developing.

Probably going go be something cheesy. Looks like that if you look at the YouTube channel. But who knows.


This.

if there's another book I think it should be a prequel surrounding Harry's parents at hogwarts or focus on Harry's kids adventures at hogwarts

Hmmm, maybe yeah.

Maybe it's from the owl's perspective :amazed:

Maybe it is Harry Potter because the Copyright is Harry Potter and Pottermore Characters...

Really...?

omgz I don't know what it is but if it's even a little to do with Harry Potter then it's enough *excited*

Of course it's to do with Harry Potter. :bored:

37 minutes! :amazed:

Ikr! :hugesmile:

[Callum]

Less than 10 minutes :amazed: I really hope it's the Encylopedia but I have a feeling it'll be something like e-books or a social network. A RPG would be cool though.

[Scarlett.]

3 minutes :3

[Callum]

2 minutes!

[Scarlett.]

40 seconds lol

[Patrick]

I just actually caught on to the title.

I read it as 'More Potter? LOL JK, Teases a new project!'

Rather than JK Rowling Teases lol

[Callum]

Wow wow wow :amazed:

[Scarlett.]

What is it? lol

[Callum]

:worship: :lovedup:

Sounds brilliant!

[Patrick]

-Not sure why there's another thread-

But yes it does sound pretty sweet, means alot actually that we were here to watch it be officially announced.

[Patrick]

Pretty sweet aswell what they're doing with the 'a few fans will be able to enter first' thing.
That opens 16 Days after the last movie is released, so Potter Mania will still be at large, and I imagine they'll probably put that video or another promo onto the trailers in the cinema before HP7 comes on.

[Callum]

-Not sure why there's another thread-

But yes it does sound pretty sweet, means alot actually that we were here to watch it be officially announced.

Just thought I'd make one for discussion post build up :)

Mods can merge them if they wish

[Callum]

From the official site:

Pottermore is a free website that builds an exciting online experience around the reading of the Harry Potter books.

Come back on 31st July to find out how you can get the chance to enter Pottermore early.

[Scarlett.]

I still don't get what it is, it just sounds like a website to sell eBooks

[Callum]

More information from the statement

In the new website, the storyline will be brought to life with sumptuous newly-commissioned illustrations and interactive ‘Moments’ through which you can navigate, starting with the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s (Sorcerer’s) Stone. On entering, you choose a magic username and begin your experience. As you move through the chapters, you can read and share exclusive writing from J.K. Rowling, and, just as Harry joins Hogwarts, so can you. You visit Diagon Alley, get sorted into a house, cast spells and mix potions to help your house compete for the House Cup.

At a press conference at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, Rowling revealed some key features of the website. In an announcement which will thrill fans, she described how she has brought to life both the Sorting Hat and Ollivanders experiences from her books for the first time on Pottermore, by revealing the questions asked by the Sorting Hat – which places newcomers into their Hogwarts houses according to their characteristics – and the magic behind the Wand Chooser – which finds the right wand for each user from over 33,000 possible combinations. She also revealed glimpses of the new information she has provided on some of the best-loved characters.

J.K. Rowling’s announcement on YouTube and sony.com today revealed that Pottermore (along with the Pottermore Shop) will be open to all users in October 2011. From today, 23rd June, fans can submit their email addresses on Pottermore.com in order to be contacted by the site following the opening of registration on 31st July, Harry’s birthday. Also on that date, an online challenge will be launched, whereby the first million people to complete their registration will gain early entry into the website, and help put final touches to the experience.

On Sony’s partnership of Pottermore, J.K. Rowling commented:
“As I think people know, I am very protective of Harry and have always been very selective with any new initiatives, but I am totally committed to making this partnership with Sony and this wonderful new website a success. There are many companies I could have worked with on this ultimate digital expression of Harry Potter’s universe, but it is Sony’s unique philosophy of creativity in harmony with technology that made them my first choice as main partner. The spirit behind Sony’s make.believe philosophy is one that rings true with Pottermore’s own values.”

The storyline of the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, will go live on the site in early 2012. The Pottermore Shop opens when the site opens to all in October, selling complete ranges of the eBooks and digital audiobooks in a selection of languages, exclusively.

Designed for fans of all ages, the website has been created with child safety in mind, employing best practice and compliance with internet codes of practice in the UK, Europe and USA, and elsewhere.

[Callum]

Pottemore beta launch tomorrow :amazed:

[Boothy]

I actually really want to get in.

I've put off re-reading the books for about a week now hoping to get accepted into the beta trial of this.

[Callum]

Apparently like a million people will get invitations so it's likely more people will be accepted than not

[CharlieO]

I want to try it but I cant imagine it being that amazing.

[Boothy]

Apparently like a million people will get invitations so it's likely more people will be accepted than not

:amazed:

Do you know what time it opens or anything?

[Callum]

:amazed:

Do you know what time it opens or anything?

Not sure but I'm guessing maybe at midnight the Pottermore website will reveal more about the beta testing and all people who have submitted their email will get info on how to register. I can't wait to get sorted. :D

[Marc]

Bring them back, kill off Hermione and take Ron's arm.

[Boothy]

Not sure but I'm guessing maybe at midnight the Pottermore website will reveal more about the beta testing and all people who have submitted their email will get info on how to register. I can't wait to get sorted. :D

I know, yeah. I turn into a massive kid when it comes to Harry Potter. I'd want Ravenclaw I think.

[Boothy]

It's already crashed D:

[Marsh.]

I didn't realise there was a thread, I just posted in the movie thread that the site won't let me on.

I've heard there's a puzzle of some sort and the first 1 million users to complete it are allowed access for the trial period until October.

I'm leaving the site open though as it keeps refreshing itself. Fingers crossed.

Yeah, I'm hoping most people's sleeping patterns aren't as messed up as mine so I'll be able to get on at 4am or something :joker:

[Princess]

Yeah, I'm hoping most people's sleeping patterns aren't as messed up as mine so I'll be able to get on at 4am or something :joker:

Yes but don't forget the Americans, and I say a lot of people have messed up sleep patterns :p

[Boothy]

Yes but don't forget the Americans, and I say a lot of people have messed up sleep patterns :p

forgot about that.

Perhaps it won't open until tomorrow morning, to cater for different time zones.

[Niall]

When is the bloody thing actually open

[Marsh.]

Can't get on the sodding thing anyway. Refreshes 100 times before telling me to come back later. I give up.

[Boothy]

Been looking at a purple screen for over a ****ing hour now.

They must have sent Errol with the acceptance letters.

[Marsh.]

Would anyone actually be on the thing at all by now? Or are there a million users all over the world looking at holding screens. lol. It's madness.

[Marsh.]

It's let me on, wooooohooooo......


Hang on, it's the email registration page telling me to come back on 31st July. Boo.

[Callum]

It is 31st July :laugh:

Lots of people saying it will update at 12 noon

[Marsh.]

It is 31st July :laugh:

Lots of people saying it will update at 12 noon

I know that's why it's frustrating.

I'll just leave it til "tomorrow" now.

I was hoping there was some secret on the main page and if you found it you got an invite. lol no such luck.

[Callum]

The website has been updated :D When I first read what you have to do, I was a bit confused but now I've read it again it seems pretty simple. I don't think the clue has been added yet though.

[Callum]

This was apparently given to all fans at LeakyCon 2011. Looks like the clue will go live at 8am

http://i.imgur.com/kJcOT.jpg

[Princess]

8? Woah early.

[Novo]

I will be finding the Magic Quill just received an exclusive email with step by step instructions to get it

[Boothy]

Suppose it should go live any moment now then?

[Boothy]

I'm in!!!

quill.pottermore/245

[Novo]

I have registered

[Boothy]

Oh.

To ensure the exciting world of Pottermore is as magical as possible, a million lucky registrants will be given early access to the site to help us shape the experience before the site is open to all in October. If you are selected, please keep checking your inbox, because from 31st July you will receive an email granting you early access to Pottermore!

So even after you register it's still luck.

[Novo]

I made two accounts just in case :joker:

[Boothy]

:joker:

I'll do the same.

[Boothy]

All of the usernames I've been offered both times have been crap.

[Novo]

I got BludgerDragon112 the first time forgot what my second one was

[Boothy]

I've forgot my second one. My first one was ShieldCloak98 though.

[Marsh.]

What's this crap about an owl emporium sign?

[Marsh.]

AccioNimbus60 is my username. Sounds dirty.

Do you need to get every single one of the clues to be accepted? Or is there a certain number of places available each day?

[Boothy]

AccioNimbus60 is my username. Sounds dirty.

Do you need to get every single one of the clues to be accepted? Or is there a certain number of places available each day?

A certain amount are let in each day. If you've got a username and activated your account, you should be okay.

[Marsh.]

I've not had a registration email. I thought the Magical Quill would be taken down once all the available slots had gone. So if I've lost out why did it let me register my details?

[Boothy]

I've not had a registration email. I thought the Magical Quill would be taken down once all the available slots had gone. So if I've lost out why did it let me register my details?

Mine took a while to come through, I wouldn't worry about it.

Registration has been closed for day one now anyway, there's probably so many people signed up there's a delay with emails. As long as you've registered your details, I'd imagine you'll get a conformation email.

[Callum]

Same here, praying I get one.

Thanks for that. I've registered twice just in case. :hugesmile:

[Callum]

People on Twitter are saying that anyone who has registered two accounts will get their IPs permanently banned from the website.

[Marc]

What is this that you've been registering for?

[Novo]

I didn't validate my second one so it should be okay

[Marsh.]

I've only activated one so hopefully that helps lol.

Just realised that registering doesn't mean you get early access, so don't know why they limit the number of people registering if they don't all get in anyway.

I've got a feeling I'm gonna be underwhelmed. Ungrateful bugger I am. lol

[Boothy]

People on Twitter are saying that anyone who has registered two accounts will get their IPs permanently banned from the website.

Can't be true.

What about if another family member registered?

[Marsh.]

What is this that you've been registering for?

http://www.pottermore.com

[Niall]

Well ****. I missed this. :bawling:

[Marsh.]

Well ****. I missed this. :bawling:

Get out your copy of Chamber of Secrets and try tomorrow. :hugesmile:

[Callum]

Can't be true.

What about if another family member registered?

I don't know but it does say in the terms and conditions about people with 2 or more accounts on the same IP will be banned.

[Callum]

If you didn't validate/activate the second account though I'm sure it will be fine. :)

[Boothy]

If you didn't validate/activate the second account though I'm sure it will be fine. :)

I've deleted my second account now so I've only got the one. Hopefully that should be fine.

[Marsh.]

The message has changed now. It doesn't say you "may be" it says "you will" now.

Congratulations!
You’ve successfully validated your early access Pottermore account. You will be one of the lucky few to shape the experience before the site opens to all in October.

You may have to wait a few weeks for your Welcome email to arrive as we can’t let everyone into the Beta site at the same time.

We look forward to seeing you.

But you'll be let on in small batches.

[Novo]

I've got that as well now

[Vicky.]

I registered a couple of days ago and it said they would send me a validation email and they never have :bored:

[Boothy]

I registered a couple of days ago and it said they would send me a validation email and they never have :bored:

You had to do it this morning to get the validation email. There was a question on the website and you had to answer it in order to sign up.

They're doing it for the next 7 days so you'll have a chance every day.

[Vicky.]

I did something a few days ago then, clearly not registering D:

Either way, it said it would send me an email and hasnt :tongue:

[Marsh.]

I registered a couple of days ago and it said they would send me a validation email and they never have :bored:

That was just submitting your email for alert when the site is up and running. Registration is only available from now until August 6th for the first 1 million users.

[Vicky.]

That was just submitting your email for alert when the site is up and running. Registration is only available from now until August 6th for the first 1 million users.

Ahh right, so I will get the email they promised me in a month or so then?

[Marsh.]

Ahh right, so I will get the email they promised me in a month or so then?

Yes, or you could get an early access account by finding the clue which will appear on the site tomorrow. It's a question from each of the 7 books on each of the next 7 days.

[Vicky.]

Yeah, if its 8am again then I have no chance :p

[Boothy]

Yeah, if its 8am again then I have no chance :p

:joker:

They said it will be different everyday to give everyone a fair chance.

[Smithy]

I don't see the big deal :suspect:

everyone's gonna get on it in the end, when it opens up properly

[Vicky.]

I don't see the big deal :suspect:

everyone's gonna get on it in the end, when it opens up properly

You could say the same about 'leaked music' :suspect:

[Smithy]

That's if it leaks, there's no guarantee of that, there's a guarantee of this ;)

[Princess]

Yeah but that's 2 months away, when everyone else will be on and you won't be.

[Boothy]

I don't see the big deal :suspect:

everyone's gonna get on it in the end, when it opens up properly

Patience isn't one of my strengths.

[Smithy]

Yeah but that's 2 months away, when everyone else will be on and you won't be.

Well obviously not everyone, I doubt many people who even know each other will get on

[Princess]

Well obviously not everyone, I doubt many people who even know each other will get on

Well online they will, which sounds sad I know but only about 3 HP people on my Tumblr/Twitter didn't get on this morning.

[Callum]

I'm going to have to set an alarm one of these days.

[Callum]

40+ screencaps of the chapter art for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone on Pottermore :) I'm really liking the artwork for this, Atomhawk Design have done a great job with it.

[Boothy]

quill.pottermore.com/588 is today's answer.

Quick though!

[Marsh.]

What was today's question?

[Callum]

"What is the number of the chapter in which Professor McGonagall cancels the Qudditch match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff? Multiply this by 42"

[Marsh.]

"What is the number of the chapter in which Professor McGonagall cancels the Qudditch match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff? Multiply this by 42"

Oh. Thanks.

[Glenn.]

Still haven't been able to sign up yet :(

[Smithy]

It was @ 8 on monday 10 on tuesday so imma assume around 12 tomorrow :suspect:

[CharlieO]

I really need to keep an eye out tomorrow. I so want to get this.

[Callum]

The past two days they've been added early in the morning, so I think your best bet would be around 8am-9am.

[Lewis.]

Reckon I might wait until October :tongue:

[Niall]

I GOT IN :amazed:

[Lewis.]

What's it like?

[Boothy]

I GOT IN :amazed:

You didn't really though, did you? :suspect:

[Callum]

Lewis currently it's just showing an image of Privet Drive and a notice saying you will be able to try the beta version once you get an email in the next few weeks.

[Lewis.]

Ah right!

Don't understand all of this magical quill thing - what's that all about?

[Boothy]

Ah right!

Don't understand all of this magical quill thing - what's that all about?

Once you answer the clue you have to find the magical quill. It was just a little point and click game when I played, it was different on day 2 though apparently.

[Niall]

*Is trying to make Smithy an account atm* ITS ****ED UP UGH.

[Niall]

Where the **** is the quill. I'm cranky and don't like to be kept waiting. :mad:

[Boothy]

If you can't do it, I'll have a go too.

[Boothy]

Oh, I'm getting the message saying the site's crashed.

[Niall]

I figured it out never mind. :bigsmile: It was hidden as an ad on the Guardian's web page.

[Boothy]

Niall, have you got him one? I'm on the sign up page now.

[Niall]

Yeah I got one for him. I don't know what Smithy's second name is though. :suspect:

What username did you get him?

[Niall]

BloodGold66 and I gave him a Gaga-inspired password. :laugh:

[Niall]

How long do the e-mails take? My friend did my one for me before, you see. :suspect:

[Boothy]

Mine took around 20 minutes but people on Twitter were saying their's took hours. I think it depends on how busy the site is.

[Smithy]

URGH... I registered and then got a horrible reply... when I clicked the email link.

"Sorry we can't register you right now, please try again later and create a new account" THE COMPETITION HAS CLOSED FOR THE DAY MORONS, I CAN'T. :nono:

Not impressed. :bawling:

It took about an hour when I did it glenn

[Doogle]

Im awaiting an email or some ****.

[Vicky.]

No confirmation email yet :sad:

[Marsh.]

I've read that trying to change the email address and password before the site is actually open bollockses the system up so you might not get in, your validation doesn't count or something because it will be to a different address.

[CharlieO]

:o I hope not, I did that but I didn't get an email. I assumed that Niall already got conformation before he gave it to me.

Is this properly confirmed?

[Smithy]

[Callum]

If I'm trying to make another account for someone, does it matter if it's the same IP address as my own account?
From the Pottermore blog:
I’ve found The Magical Quill more than once. Am I allowed to create multiple early access Pottermore accounts?
No. You may only register for the early access period once. Please refer to the conditions of participation in The Magical Quill promotion Terms & Conditions.

[Macie Lightfoot]

So then are all of you guys being super sneaky and using another computer with a different IP address?

[Doogle]

Well Boothy signed me up on Wednesday so do you reckon he did the email? Because I changed the email address to mine after anyway.

[Marsh.]

There's 7 weeks between now and October so apparently the welcome emails will be to this time scale...

•Day 1; August 8-14,
•Day 2; August 15-21,
•Day 3; August 22-28,
•Day 4; August 29-September 4,
•Day 5; September 5-11,
•Day 6; September 12-18,
•Day 7; September 19-25

Anybody had one?

[Doogle]

Which day was I?!?!?!

If it's Day 3 I'm on holiday. How ****ing unlucky.

[Marsh.]

Which day was I?!?!?!

If it's Day 3 I'm on holiday. How ****ing unlucky.

If you signed up on Wednesday then it's Day 4.

[Doogle]

Thank god. Yeah it was Wednesday :hugesmile:

[Smithy]

I was day 3 i think

[Callum]

Day 1 and still haven't got mine, got up to the 14th though so not worried.... yet.

[Boothy]

omg it says an email will be sent to him. but i never got an email d; unless it went to boothy and he activiated something because im worried my account wont count or something now

Well Boothy signed me up on Wednesday so do you reckon he did the email? Because I changed the email address to mine after anyway.

Yeah, I activated your account, Doogle, you've just gotta wait for the welcome email.
Day 1 and still haven't got mine, got up to the 14th though so not worried.... yet.

I still haven't had mine either

[Marsh.]

Just looked at some screen shots of the screen for the wand selection and sorting hat. Can't wait.

[Callum]

Yeah there's a video going round with new footage and it's looking really promising. I want my email now. :(

[Boothy]

Anyone else get an email?

You have been selected for early entry into Pottermore!

We’re really excited to confirm that you are one of the lucky people selected for early entry into Pottermore, ahead of when it is open-to-all in October, to help us add finishing touches!

We will activate your account between mid-August and the end of September, so keep checking your inbox for our Welcome email. When this arrives you will be able to enter Pottermore. In the meantime, you can check the Pottermore Insider for all the latest news, updates and announcements.

We look forward to welcoming you to Pottermore.

[CharlieO]

No. :sad:

[Boothy]

It's a bit pointless anyway, really. I still can't log into the site.

[Callum]

No, I got that one sent to me on the first day of The Magical Quill. The login from the site has been temporarily removed for everyone, so nobody has got in yet, when it's back on there we'll know that people are being let in.

[Novo]

Anyone else get an email?

Just now
