Failte folks! How's everyone doing? Good? Well, welcome to another Bi-Weekly Update, done by yours truly! I have a number of things to get through, so with out further ado let's get to business


Week Three
We are heading into week three so professors should be posting the third lesson of the semester this week, and students if they want good grades should be posting. Want to help your house win the cup, go to the lessons!

Quidditch
The last two quidditch games were a lot of fun! Although one was incredibly short, my bad guys! But folks with quidditch players should keep an eye on their PMs, since the last and final games of the season are coming up soon. It'll be great fun as they always are!

Duelling
Duelling may be coming back in this term, it won't be as big as in the last term, just a handful of matches. People should watch out for that, maybe your characters could prepare, if your character wishes to practice duelling it must be done in the duelling area, under the supervision of an adult!

Accio! Closing
This term, Accio! will be closing slightly earlier, within the next week or so, this is mostly to give the Accio staff a little more time to be able to complete the pages and have it ready just after graduation. So, get your pictures in! Be sure to do it now! Since time is running out!


Multi-Login Amazingness
This amazing new feature, the multi-login has replaced switch account, and is as amazing as it seems. It is a new feature, and if you want to read more about it, and what it does, then you should head over Here to Nick's announcement about the feature.

Applications!
The site Admin will be closing the applications by about mid-week. So if you have an app that you would like submit then now is the time to do so. If you already have an app submitted and are waiting for a response, then the staff thank you for your ongoing patience.

Graphics Competition!
The graphics competition to make an avatar for the Minister For Magic is going strong, with a lot of very good submissions so far! If you'd like to try a hand at winning, the competition is still open for submissions, and if you'd just like to see what others have done, then just head over here for a look!

Changes to Graphics Request Area
As many will have noticed, the Graphics area has undergone a little bit of a change recently, but recently Nick posted some information of what is expected of those who wish to become banner makers and part of the sub-group. You can head over here to have a look.

New Blog Posts!
Nick has uploaded two new blog post which y'all might've missed, the first from the 26th September talks of HNZ's community, and Amazingness that it is, and the one from the October 3rd is on HNZ and the world. Both are great reads, and I would suggest to those that haven't already read them, to head over now, and give them both a read. You can find them right, here.

Thanks for posting this Emzies!! :D
 
Thanks for posting the update, Emzies!
 
Thanks Emzies!!! You said failte! That has made my day.
 
This may sound really dumb, but are Irish Gaelic and Scottish Gaelic similar? Or no? Also, Great Update!
 
I'm not sure, we learnt a scottish gaelic song once at school, and some words were the same. Like they'd use "sibh"and we'd use "sibh" But Irish differs from Provence to Provence, so it changes. I mean, in Munster we'd say "Conas atá tú?" and in Ulster, they'd say "Cad é mar atá tú?"

Sibh; plural of you
Conas atá tú: How are you?
 
Yeah, that makes sense. I'm only asking because I am recently learning Scottish Gaelic and I noticed that a few words seemed to carry over.
