Anyone up for an astronomy class tonight at 10 PM eastern/8 PM(probably) server time? 4 hours and 45 minutes from the time of this post. Class robes required, cloaks recommended for warmth, etc.

We'll use this map to keep everyone on the same page. I know it's London, but it's as close as I could get it. The worksheet for the class will have a blank circle for the PC to note the stars, planets and constellations, as well as the following questions.
Date and time observed:
Phase of moon:
Date of last full moon:
Time of moonrise:
Peak position of Jupiter:

I am planning a small time Divination's class today - I'll be on all day waiting to see who shows up online - I hope to attempt to give those who can't come on to late a class - there is a possibility of a follow up class/ repeat maybe around 10 pm eastern USA or if need be the next day. So there will be a class - weither I do one in the morning or not - will be dependant on people actually coming on to rp during those hours. I am shooting for one tonight at 10 pm eastern though - definitely.

There will be a Defense Against the Dark Arts class this Saturday 5/4 at 11:30 PM eastern time/8:30 PM server time. The spell learned will be Riddikulus, so for that reason I have to ask anybody who intends to come to send me a PM with your character's boggart fear, as well as an idea of how it could be made humorous, so I can prepare. If the fear is something abstract, PM me asap and we can discuss about the form the boggart will take. I'd like to have that by Friday night, as I work Saturday.

If this day/time doesn't work for you and your character needs to learn the spell, let me know through PM and I'll look into holding a second session at another time. I strongly suggest that if your character doesn't know Riddikulus, you attempt to attend this class.

Class robes required, third year or higher, etc.

Tonight's class will be postponed to tomorrow(Wednesday) due to the fact that the weather is trying to boil me alive and my brain doesn't function that way. Consequently, I have all of nothing to present, and that's just no fun. Hoping that between tonight and tomorrow I can have more time to work on it. Sorry if that's inconvenient for anyone!
