![:lumos](https://i.imgur.com/6QU1N5T.gif) Accio Regulus Black! Time has unfrozen and you're back on the correct Side of the War. Day 1 is already on the verge of Day 2, with so much Game lying ahead! If you haven't done so already, please check out all the new threads in The Three Broomsticks (the official Welcome thread, Proboards for Trolls, Ominoculars), you Side Board (another Welcome thread) and especially your Diary Journal (Owl Post, Switch and Flick). Otherwise, go meet your Side Buddies! Then feel free to check back in and enlighten us on these points: 1. How do you think Day 0 went for you? Do you know much about how the other Pureblood vs Order pairings fared? 2. How are you finding Malfoy Manor? Were you expecting this kind of setup? 3. What are your first impressions of your new Side Buddies? And what impression are you aiming to give them? 4. What influence do the PBvO pairs have on your Game now that they've all been split between the Sides? Do you expect the Owl Post or Flick and Switch twists to change that? 5. Finally, do you have indications yet of how a first Vote might go? How about any plans or longer-term strategies for surviving on this Side?

Lol I fumbled from the first message I initiated. I messaged Carrow and called her Mister. I just assumed a name ending with O was usually a male name. Turns out I am wrong. Now she's going to presume I just copy pasted generic intros to everyone and that I was too lazy to change wizard to witch when I actually just wrote that especially for her
And Killer has caught me out that apparently I never met him in the story or whatever?
Turns out specific Harry Potter world details are important in a Harry Potter world game

Good point, but do it anyway if you don't mind- it shouldn't take long at all.

Regulus Black Just a heads-up that we're hoping to re-pair you with Mundungus given that you've both lost partners so early without even having the chance to save them with a Switch Charm. Obviously it's not ideal and we can work through the mechanics with you a bit later tonight. But just want to check that you'd be interested in giving this a go?

I mean.... not really? I feel like either way this re-pairing can't be helpful for my game. Either we are at a disadvantage from not having spent 3 days chatting, not knowing who we were completing tonight's challenge for. Or we somehow get Floo access for a day or two and then have targets placed on our backs.
Tbh I'd rather remain a single if it's an option?

It would be a thing for moving forward. Beyond the ID stuff (as obviously you weren't initially paired) there's the opportunity to earn access to the Floo Network board even while on separate Sides. And like everything else with the House Points, if you earned the board opening it would not be public knowledge.
Up to you. We won't force it on you.

I don't want to spoil anyone's fun, so I'll consider it. Is there a possibility that this new partnership and Floo Network access can remain secret?
I just am hesitant as all it has to take is someone sending an Owl over here saying that I have direct access to the other side and I'm suddenly a risk to flip, or of spilling Side dynamics

The Floo Network would be closed for now, like everyone else's. If the two of you reached 100 House Points, it would be opened secretly - again, just like for everyone else. So you wouldn't have direct access to the other Side just yet, and if you gained it nobody would know without being told by you or Mundungus.
However, we would have to announce to everyone tonight that you and Mundungus are becoming a new pair able to accumulate House Points.

Oh. I misinterpreted your message in that case, my apologies. I was of the impression you meant Floo access could occur as of tonight, or tomorrow to provide some level of meaningful connection to be forged.
I know that you are in a tough spot having to balance fairness for everyone involved and keep the game rolling on. I really was interested in playing around with house points, Floo dynamics, Switch or flick and possibly an Exile alliance style cross tribal thing. But I think I'll just cut my losses with pairs and move forward as an unattached free agent if that wouldn't sour anyone's milk?
Sorry Pete. I appreciate you offering this as an option though. However I still will quite possibly send as owl to Mundungus
