Posted by DucksRMagical Dec 31st 2007

It's not on Youtube anymore. I managed to watch the first 18 mins on ITV's website, but it's taking forever to load now. But it's really good so far!


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

hi i8voldy! we actually only had one war, and that was yesterday. we were just bored and decided to declare a war over nothing.


Posted by SuzieQ Dec 31st 2007

UGGGHHHHHH! i can't see it! i got it earlier this morning, but all i could watch was about the first minute and a half, and after that i would just skip back to the beginning. and now the youtube one's been taken down for copyright reasons. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

yep *salutes to general moonshine* i was chief intelligence officer and made the maps that pinpointed rob allowing me to attack him with bulletproof cheesecake. bye lia! hi felix!


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

rob killed me! and i thought he was my friend....have you met rob?


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

haha. so the wars are on the posts?


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

yeah ... I think the post is fourth down from the top now


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

ok im going to go read that "war" then be back. and no I havent met rob.


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

hola cheif spew! *salutes* marie left right before the war started, so rob had to fight all alone. poor guy lol. but he cheated and used avada kedavra. thats seriously not fair.


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

that war looked brutal. lol...how do you become a chessecakien?


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

dunno if he cheated, really; we never said we couldn't use wands or unforgivables... ?


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

to become a cheesecakeian you have to talk to one of the wise ones (aka dannyrob, hallowsaint, or sirius_lee), or to our membership cheesecakeian, remi. theyll give you the cheesecakeian oath, and you recite it back to them. thats its. and spew---i guess your right. besides, i guess the whole "all's fair in love and war" thing applies here too.


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

hey anyone there?


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

oh so is the membership-cheesecakian-r emi-thing official now? cool.


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

well i think danny supported it and hes a wise one, so doesnt that make it like official?


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

oh cool...so um when are they gonna show up? lol


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

gtg be back soon bye!


Posted by snape17 Dec 31st 2007

Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

bye spew! I8V---i dont know, they could come at any time. ari (aka sirius_lee) is in the hospital right now, so idk if shell get on. danny will probably be getting on sometime today, but he normally comes later. remi will probably be here soon too.


Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

ok cool I'll keep a look out. by the way this 3 min delay thing is (for lack of a better word) dumb.


Posted by moonshine Dec 31st 2007

Posted by I8Voldymortyum Dec 31st 2007

Half way through my sound just stopped! Grrr. Mugglecast isn't up yet, and now the documentary isn't working! Now I have to do school work! I'm very sad.


Posted by Holly09 Dec 31st 2007

I can't get it to work on the link above and the YouTube video has been taken down. I don't understand why the powers that be do no want it on YouTube. They could at least put it on a player that works with my computer, becuase I sure as heck am not getting this to work!! Ehh, why am I not allowed to watch this. Like everyone else here I love Jo with all my heart and want to get to see this. I am SO mad!!!!!!!


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

hey, is it just me or did the top newspost just disappear (about the Spiderwick contest)?


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

wierd.


Posted by member_of_SPEW Dec 31st 2007

hm, I guess I'll go look on what is the second post now.


Posted by MyLifeDependsOnMugglecast Dec 31st 2007

Can't watch it... What is she writing next? I'm excited to find out:) Hopefully more fantasy books:) As long as she doesn't use the same plot as my book... Yes, I'm writing a book:) I love to write. Love you mugglecasters/muggleneter s/JKR!


Posted by expectogirl Dec 31st 2007

please help me!!!! It won't download on tvcatchup and I only got to see part 1 on youtube before they took down the other parts, WHAHHHHHH! I feel cheated, can anyone help??????


Posted by Hermione_Weasley4ever Dec 31st 2007

I can't get to it. It's been loading for a really long time and it's still on 0%. bummer.


Posted by Hermione_Weasley4ever Dec 31st 2007

I can't get to it. It's been loading for a really long time and it's still on 0%. bummer.


Posted by expectogirl Dec 31st 2007

I just checked the tvcatchup forums under "JKR Fans Please Read"and there's a post that the show will be repeated and uploaded again because it overloaded their server:( Didn't say when though so it could be awhile-I'm so bummed.


Posted by expectogirl Dec 31st 2007

Sorry to double post, just wanted everyone to know I checked the ITV website and the show is repeating on ITV on Jan 5th! I hope we don't have to wait that long-jeez I should've gotten up earlier:( I don't want to wait till Sat :(


Posted by rooon Dec 31st 2007

Today id my b- day!!!!!!!!!! : ) Happy new years!


Posted by HarrysWay Dec 31st 2007

For all of those who cant watch it... i was struggling too, but i just made mine work. you have to create an account with the website and wait for it to load... if it brings u back to the beginning of the episode once it starts, just press pause, and wait for it to load all the way. it takes a few minutes, but just be patient and it will work fine. for those of you like me who live in the US, when u sign up for the website, say you are a uk resident living oversees, or else say you live in one of the choices of countrys that they give u.


Posted by kalb Dec 31st 2007

Absolutely wonderful. The show was terrific, as is JKR.


Posted by darkhairhermy Dec 31st 2007

I thought that it would take a while to load so I pressed 'play' then 'pause' and left the house for an hour... but it's still stalling for me, so I went a few minutes in and paused it again and now it's taking ages to load (on a fast connection). From all the previous comments, I know it's worth it, and I'm definitely not complaining! Happy New Years to everyone!!! And shoutout to all my fellow Israelis :D I love Jo!!


Posted by christianaeg Dec 31st 2007

Lol i opened up the website, and when it started loading i wandered off and watched it somewhere else, on youtube. i just realized i left the window open and it's still loading... hm...


Posted by ValGal292 Dec 31st 2007

can't see it...


Posted by darkhairhermy Dec 31st 2007

Grr I created an account like HarrysWay said and opened a new page, and now it's not loading at all - the ITV page with a white box and a loading flower thingie. And I, idiot as I am, closed down the first window with the little bit of the documentary working. Ugh. It's not even on YouTube anymore. Some New Year's present. I still love you, Jo! (And MuggleNet, MuggleCast, etc., etc.) ♥


Posted by dawn22 Dec 31st 2007

i just keep getting the flower thingie too, both when i created an account and when i didnt have an account. i use safari, but i tried it on firefox and even my brother's computer, but it still doesnt work :(


Posted by expectogirl Dec 31st 2007

Thanks Harrysway for info-I tried again and it's been loading for a few mins now-we'll see if it works but i'm losing my paitence-i've been trying for 2 hours now :( But it sounds like it's worth the wait!


Posted by GWisthe1 Dec 31st 2007

ughhhh. ive tried to get it to play allll day. it just won't...this suckssssss


Posted by darkhairhermy Dec 31st 2007

From the ITV forums - http://www.tvcatchup.com/ forums/12/thread/222/ "U nfortunately the incredible surge of demand for the show has overloaded one of our servers, and we have had to remove the link to the show. But if you've got this far, then you'll be pleased to hear that a repeat is scheduled and should soon be available on the site" :'( How soon is soon?!


Posted by expectogirl Dec 31st 2007

Yeah-it looks like gonna have to wait till it airs again on Jan 5th:(


Posted by GWisthe1 Dec 31st 2007

Quotes
Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory.

Albus Dumbledore
Goblet of Fire, Chapter 37, Page 724
