I am THOROUGHLY confused as to whats going on in the Quidditch match. It says a penalty shot has to be taken, but some people have already posted actions that don't quite seem to fit the current situation, and then madam hooch posted again about the penalty shot being taken this round when Theo already took it (I think).........what's going on? Do we still go about our regular business while the penalty shot is being taken, or what? I don't get it.

Basically, Dylan, in a few games back (probably from last year), when Hufflepuff and Slytherin were playing each other, Wynd committed a foul against one of the Hufflepuff players (or at least I think it was Wynd; someone do correct me otherwise, lol). Because of this, I, playing Madam Hooch, was advised to give a penalty to Hufflepuff. The way I did it was post asking the Hufflepuff Captain - Ivy - to choose one of her Chasers to take the penalty shot in the next round. I can't remember if it was Harmony or Ivy who took it, but whoever did basically went up alone against the Slytherin Keeper and tried to shoot. No Chasers or Beaters, etc., could interfere. It was like a real penalty in real life... or maybe that's just the way it is only in English football, lol.
Anyway, in this match, the current Madam Hooch posted giving Ravenclaw a penalty because of Pyro's foul on August. She did not know how I had done it previously and then went on to roll the penalty shot in the same post/round. This therefore isn't fair to Ravenclaw as we never got to choose the Chaser to take the penalty shot. Madam Hooch assumed it would be August and took it, and this is likely to be against canon anyway. So, Izy and I discussed it and Madam Hooch edited the post so that Ravenclaw can now choose a Chaser to take the penalty. Therefore, Drake must try to save Theo's - who we've chosen to shoot since he has the best Str - shot.
Is that okay? Basically, we needed another round for the penalty shot. Drake and Ephraim posted before the correction so that's why those posts are still incorrect (though Drake may have altered his post now, I haven't checked).
Sorry for the confusion. :) I did explain in my other owl with Theo, as did Madam Hooch in the match itself.

Also, as a Beater then you may wish to note that no one may hit a Bludger at Theo (or Drake, for that matter) this round. Sorry for confusing you!

EXCUSE ME???!!!! It was not Wynd that caused a penalty shot. If you would so kindly recall it was Payton who bumped into Ivy causing Madam Hooch to interfere. I started a yelling match with Bryce (who I later found out was not even being played by Adam) but I didn't do anything to cause a foul. The indignity.

Hehe no, you didn't cause the penalty. You just inspired the mole game.

Oh my, my apologies, Wynd!!! :O I have an awful memory. Of course it was Payton! *hits head on table* How could I forget? xDD;;
As Izy said, you did indeed inspire the mole game, so kudos to you, m'dear. ;D
EDIT: I like your creepy Wynd avatar. ;D

An experience is one way to phrase that Dylan.
