What is the point of the rest of the game?

that's even stupider then.
imagine being undefeated and not making the playoffs because a woman designed the sport

Based

The books take place pre-Internet.

Question.

Why isn't the entire team just focus on the snitch.

JK Rowling is unironically a bad writer. Harry Potter books feel a little bit like fanfiction in the sense there are a lot of plot holes and the prose is amateurish. Her actual writing gets worse as the series goes on, I'm assuming because she got too successful for editors to fuck with her.

An even bigger question is how wizards don't a fucking thing about muggles, despite living with them and muggles making up the overwhelming majority of the other people living on the planet. "OMG can you believe it they use EE-LEK-TRIK lights? Who would have guessed?" Bravo Nolan

DING

I went to the Yale University bookstore and bought and read a copy of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." I suffered a great deal in the process. The writing was dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs." I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times.

There now it's powerful but reasonable

Well witchcraft does exist in real life but the dogmatically materialist state and education system has brainwashed everyone into believing demons and witches don't exist and the medieval witch trials were all mass paranoia.

I didn't read HP until I was well into my 30s. I liked the first book and it was easy to accept as a random book written for kids by a homeless chick. But when I read the rest of the series the characters and tone got a lot more mature but the quality of the writing didn't. My mother (a part-time editor) used to tell me common mistakes unskilled writers would make. That all came flooding back to me about halfway through the HP series as I realized I was seeing multiple signs per page.

Scoring the other balls gets you like 30 points, and catching the snitch 150. However, the game doesn't end until the fucker is caught. So you can be losing 3000-0, catch the snitch, and lose 3000-150. Iirc this happens at the beginning of goblet of fire in the world cup

Also, two previous stories reminded me of my mom's shit list. One was an English translation of a German book about fantasy dwarves. The other was a 100-chapter epic fanfic of a guy's fursona turning a famous furry porn character into a housewife. I wasn't expecting Harry Potter to end up in this kind of company.

I mean, HP is fun and all but I'm shocked there are adults who say they're the best books they've ever read. I'm not even a /lit/fag.

>common mistakes unskilled writers would make
What like?

>a 100-chapter epic fanfic of a guy's fursona turning a famous furry porn character into a housewife.
not sure your mom is an authority on anything if she has to approve/disapprove of this shit

>The real question about the Harry Potter universe is how are wizards still a secret to muggles if there are so many of them with muggle family members? Surely not all of them can keep it a secret.
Be honest user, if there was video that surfaced online of Wizardry would you believe its real wizards or an edited video? Same for that world.

I can't remember a lot of them, but overuse of adverbs was the #1 sign your author has no skillz. Re-using phrases, descriptions, etc was another one. Some of the later books are just a parade of this stuff. Like copy-paste wording a few pages apart.

>woman invents sport
>it doesn't make sense
like pottery because it rhymes

Dude she's not reading this shit. I read it remembered the editor talk she gave me when I was 14 or whatever.

>woman inventing a fictional sport
>skill and perseverance or rational progression does not win you the game
>just catching some random luck

Women can't into sports
