Here is the question for day 3: In the Gryffindor versus Slytherin Quidditch match, in Harry’s third year, how many points is Gryffindor leading by before Harry catches the Golden Snitch? Multiply this number by 35.
The answer is to the question is 60, and 60 x 35 = 2100, so browse to http://quill.pottermore.com/2100/. On the side of the screen, you will see a feather:
To get the quill, move your mouse left and right, under the feather! You will now begin your journey:
The registration process afterwards is pretty much self explanatory. Be sure to activate your account after you register (and use a valid email too). You will receive an email like the following, typically minutes after registration (although it can take longer).
It didn’t show up for me in Firefox, but I switched to Chrome and the feather was there. Try a different browser if you don’t see the feather and the clue’s still up.
The quill didn’t come up for me on Internet Explorer or Chrome!! 🙁
Any one with add block on cant see it. It has nothing to do with having a different browser other that that one of them may not have add block enabled. If you didn’t see it that is why 🙁 sorry i couldn’t have helped earlier, it got filled in about 50 min of opening.
I found the feather and regisitered but still have not got the validation emial. My email was typed in corretly because i used autofill. How long does it take for those emails to come out? And who can I contact about reieving mine?
It took four hours for my confirmation email to come bc I have Yahoo..i sent the answer at 6 30 and my email didn’t come until 10
Read the information posted below about pottermore. If you used a yahoo account, it may take several days as there has been some sort of processing delay with yahoo sending the validation emails. Any other email server should have them sent out within 24 hours. It took me about 90 minutes to receive the email via hotmail. Try not to panic!
This is very wise information, thanks!
I stayed up till midnight waiting for clue 3, and then found out it was only open between 1 and 4 am. I’m pretty upset. Anyone know what time clue 4 will come out?
I’m guessing clue 4 will be out at 11am england time..when does the hogwarts express leave??
it is said to be from 2 pm – 6 pm british time
Will the quill thing work on the apple iPad?
Missi, the quill will not work on the iPad as it uses flash, and the iPad does not support flash.
I lived in Indonesia, what time I have to open the quill?
Well tonight, you go on pottermore in 8 pm.
can I use gmail instead of yahoo for the e-mail.. will it be faster?
Yes, it is recommended that users stay away Yahoo Mail in this instance, as they are having trouble dealing with Yahoo Mail.
Does the clue come up visible on the homepage or is it hidden?
It is extremely frustrating, as I live in Hawaii. So far, for the past three days, I have been waking up very early and registration was closed. I am sitting in front of the computer at four fifty a.m. and have not ever gotten to see a clue. Looks like I’ll have to set my alarm clock for 2-3 A.M. Please, when will clue #5 be posted in Hawaii time?
