Ok, I shall be working on this project from now on. The goal is to make a magic school in America, which will be the counterpart of Hogwarts across the Atlantic. I will be needing volunteers to help me out. |

Why don´t we do it like old Nihil Academy, like a few mods are teachers and everybody else are students. Also since we are gonna be doing a lot of advertising for this we won´t have a problem with students I think. Tipsy make a different thread where you have a list of the teachers and if they are confirmed or not, and what magic they teach. I suggest we use HP subjects. We can also make up a few like music as I saw in Nihil and maybe others. The Hogwarts subjects include: Transfiguration Defence Against the Dark Arts Charms Potions Astronomy History of Magic Herbology Arithmancy Ancient Runes Divination Care of Magical Creatures Muggle Studies Theres also lessons for flying on broomsticks and apparition. EDIT: We also need a doctor, a gamekeeper, a caretaker and a librarian but these can be NPCs. SECOND EDIT: How about Pacific Academy of Magic since our location is gonna be near the beach with Herast Castle or Pebble Beach. |

Bah, Pacific Academy? Bleh. I won't do this like last time where there was one mod per teacher. I want maximum PC's and minimum WM's. Use the teacher's lounge and make whatever thread you need. As of right now, don't expect anybody else to WM, I probably won't allow anymore WMs unless absolutely necessary. |

Nope, that's the worst thing that can happen. Maybe we can award the best PCs control over NPC's in the future, but not from the get go. I cannot allow PC's controlling NPC's and let them run amuck. We have to establish the storyline and make it coherent. I don't want random storylines that come from each teacher. 2-3 subplots is good, but more than that, it's going to be awful. |

You, Paps, and Merquise. TFE will probably help out if he wants. I talked to Siby, he might be interested, but knowing him, he doesn't have the time. |

So, what about the curriculum? do we stick to the regular HP universe or do we generate our own? i've been reading threads from last year about Nihil aca, it's kinda cool having your own type of magic to teach. and if we use Hogwarts curriculum i think some subjects will go unnoticed like divination, ancient runes, history of magic, muggle studies, etc. you get my point? so how do we really do this? we have to put up guidelines as early as possible don't you think? p.s. i think TFE's idea of having a school that combines Xavier's school and Hogwarts is pretty cool, in terms of teachers, students, and everything in between [skills, spells, quests, magics, etc.] |

We should stick to the Harry Potter theme, since there is already a market for that genre. As Danny said, we need to tap into that market. We should stick to the curriculum of Hogwarts, so it will be familiar to a lot of people. |

First off History of Magic is a core class, everyone has to take it until their OWLs. Second, Ancient Runes is like taking another language in the real world, IMO its an attractive class. The others we can try and spice them up later if need be. EDIT: Merquise, before you do any modding, read HPB7. |

I'm trying to... I still can't get a hold of the new book. I got a digital copy which is a page by page picture taken by someone which i found on Limewire. SPOILER ALERT.... i think.. lol I was at the part where 6 people drank pollyjuice so there'd be 7 harry's leaving privet drive but then the pages started to get blurry and out of focus. My eyes can't take that kind of strain and i already have astigmatism. If you guys have some digital copy to share Ill give you a BIG THANKS! |

Haven´t you seen that commercial with the two hot blond twins that have this thing and one of them has an astigmatism? Then at the end they´re like "Can you tell which one has an astigmatis?" You should totaly buy those. Okay anyways by the end of the week I´m sure your book store will have a new shipment, or better yet, reserve one from them. |

Nope haven't seen that one? does it show in the Philippines? Anyways I already reserved a book... Too bad though, I'd much rather buy paperback than hardbound. If it wasn't for my "need-to-know-the-end" syndrone, I'll be waiting until the paperback gets released. Oh well... |

I´m actually okay with Pebble Beach now, it has big rich peop'le homes that can be joined to become the school. |
