I could only remember 151 of the top 200 Harry Potter characters and now I feel like a failure

[AngeloMysterioso]

My niece challenged me to this quiz and I thought I’d smash it, and I only got 75.5!! I’m so bloody annoyed with myself!

Is anyone else as rubbish as me?

55%, I did cheat a bit when I got the spelling wrong on some and turned to Google to find out how it's spelt right. You'd be hard pushed to get 100, I mean, who on earth was That one near the end with the initials JP! (Bad Potter fan YouBetter, bad )

A tip is don't do first names, put in a surname and it'll fill everyone with that surname in! Saves you typing out all the Weasleys for example!

Is James potter really only mentioned 14 times?

I lost the will to live when it wouldn't let me have the other Lestrange's, Teddy Nott etc.

What's the point of including Wilkie bloody twycross and not them!

I got 178 but ran out of time. I think I could have done better if I wasn't under pressure!

Forgot Hedwig though!!

@NicoAndTheNiners I think his name is probably only mentioned that many times as he would just be called 'my dad' or 'your dad' to harry iyswim?

Ha I would struggle to get 10!

But I did the countries of the world quiz and got 95 right, plus another 10 ish that I knew but couldn't spell.
Not bad, looking at the answers the ones I didn't know apart from a few bloody obvious ones were mainly the little islands.

Will try that one again and see if I can improve

@kaytee87 that makes sense. Harry is always talking about his parents and so is dumbledore but yes in “my parents”, “your parents” terms.

Ok, now I’m obsessed.

Oh my god the pressure of doing it timed!

...

I am going to have a go at this when I have more time. I class myself as a big fan, have read the books multiple times, so will be disappointed if I don't do fairly well.

120, more than I thought I'd get! I'm surprised the animals are considered characters, came in handy though as for some reason I seem to remember their names more than some of the humans!

There's two James Potters, no? Harry's son and his dad.

Yes, but the quiz goes on mentions. Harry's son James Sirius would only have been mentioned right at the end of Deathly Hallows.

Shame

I think I’ve heard of five.

I’m ok with that

I didn't realise there was a time limit until it was less than 10 seconds, I was dicking about with the TV! Got 103. Rubbish and I'm a Potter nerd. I didn't realise they included bloody Hedwig etc!

Put in surnames and it fills in for you

James himself got nearly 200 mentions. James Sirius got 14.

But you have to remember the surnames.

I’m now playing against myself to improve my score.

@ISendNoComplimentsToYourMother mine filled in the full names for me. And if I typed in a surname e.g. Potter, Weasley it filled in the whole family.

I've improved to 150. Coulda done better.

Had another go- 161. Getting better!

If you do longbottom you get his grandmother
