Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP
The results of this question really surprised me. Answers were all over the place.
17. Imagine that you’re a student at Hogwarts. Which professor do you think would be your favorite?
While technically a professor, this one doesn't teach a class, which probably explains this result:

My thought is that McGonagall would only be your favorite if you are a Gryffindor, as she wears her favoritism on her sleeve. If you were sorted into another house, I think you'd come to despise her after a while.

Exactamundo. I knew players would immediately think "animal," but was hopeful that some would be clever and think of plants as well.
I was shocked McGonagall was the top pick. It thought Hagrid would come out on top, followed by Lupin. I think the problem with Hagrid might've been that some people don't think of him as a professor first. McGonagall strikes me as the kind of professor you always want approval from, but never really get.

I went with McGonagall because she was there throughout the series while so many of the profs came in and out. That's why I decided against Lupin.

19. Voldemort was the Big Bad, but he was hardly the only villain in the series. Name a villain other than Voldemort.
A good variety of answers this round, with no one scoring 0 points.
The worst answer is probably because the word "villain" is debatable:

I tend to think of McGonagall as more tough but fair. If I were to attend her magical school then I would probably have great respect for her as a teacher, but I doubt she would be my favorite.
Hagrid is a great guy but a poor teacher. I'm surprised anyone would want to have an asshole like Snape as a teacher. I guess he played favorites so if you were a little shit too you could be one of his favorites.
My choice came down to Lupin and the death eater posing as Mad Eye Moody. Lupin's gentle encouraging demeanor carried the day for me.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP
Damn, another mediocre slam. 
Why didn't I slam Ginny again? 
I think my problem was slamming answers I felt strongly about, rather than answers that had few other options.

Re: The Sheep Who Lived: HARRY POTTER SHEEP
I thought everyone would want to be in Hagrid's class considering what an asshole Snape is and how schoolmarm-y McGonagall was. Best teacher? That would be Snape or McGonagall, but most fun? Gotta be Hagrid.
Sucks that I wasted a slam on that. I was suddenly (surprisingly) in contention before that.

20. REVERSE: Name an actor or actress who appeared in all 8 movies of the series.
Let's have a little fun with the final question, shall we? There were 14 possible correct answers to this question. Below are the more obscure ones that nobody mentioned.
One of them, admittedly not very obvious, was:

For some reason, I have trouble seeing Draco as a villain. He strikes me more like a nemesis, and like Harry, sometimes a reluctant participant in the events going on around him.
Not saying he's without some major faults or someone I'd want to buddy with, but "villain"? Nah.

Five of our 19 players submitted unique answers. Unfortunately, one of them decided to slam it. A big orangecrush round of applause for:
