Do Not Disturb Sign Gone on J.K. Rowling.com

JKRowling.com's mysterious "Do Not Disturb" Sign is gone - revealing a third WOMBAT test underneath. This is the FINAL WOMBAT, and more difficult than the rest; also, certain answers are sure to "LOSE YOU MARKS," the test warns (in all those caps, too). It is on Magical History, the bodies and laws of the International Wizarding Community, Magical Theory and Dark Magic. It will take 35 minutes to take.
If you would like directions on how to get into the room, read below.

Wait until the fly lands on the window; click him. He turns into a key. Drag him to the door and open, and see the desk. On the desk, put the circle on top of the line; it should sparkle. Then put the triangle on top (essentially creating the symbol on the spine of the British edition cover of DH). It should also sparkle. Then take your test!

shellebrownies This is my first WOMBAT. Can anyone tell me where is a good place to "study"? Or is the information taken from what's in the books? Thanks!

Daniel The wombat won't open for me it disappears and the room goes black but does nothing. I've cleared teh cache and allsorts. Also the British site jkrowling.co.uk doesn't have the wombat yet, it still has teh do not disturb sign on the door.

Becca Random off-topic here but I'm watching "Classic Who Wants To Be a Millionaire"; the guy asked the audience on "What house is Harry Potter in?"- 31% said Ravenclaw! =|

Michelle My ID is at home but I took it anyway. :) I'll just have to keep track of two numbers that's all. I'll take it again with my real ID later. (I'm at work now.) It was really hard. The idea that certain answers LOSE you points scares me. Definitely think through your answers. So I wonder if we'll get anything extra when we get our scores? A Few chapter titles, maybe?

Jenny Re: Clues on the test, I found the following pretty interesting: - mention of goblins esp. "The allegation by goblin King Ragnuk the First that Godric Gryffindor had stolen his sword" - mention of Gringrotts: "The oldest building in Diagon Ally is Gringrotts bank...." - this about Slytherin: "towards the end of his life, Salazar Slytherin reconciled with the other founders and returned to the castle to die" - a true/false question: "The World's largest Centre for Alchemical Studies is located in Egypt" - alot of stuff on magical means of travelling abroad - portkeys need authorisation/apparition prohibited due to splinching - possibly justifies that dragon then. - Stuff on animagi - Draught of Living Death is mentioned.

vandy it's getting submitted.....*keeping my fingers crossed*

danradfan20 What do you guys think we will get from taking the three wombats? A paragraph from DH, a couple of chapter titles, a list of clues??? I think it will either be one small paragraph or one or two chapter titles.

Fran I've just took the test. Some of the questions were quite easy. Most of them were really hard, so I just took a wild guess for them. I don't mind if my results are rubbish. It's just a bit of fun.

Becca Michelle- yeah, that scared me too! I have no idea how well I've done especially seeing as I didn't take the other tests. Do you see what answers you got right/wrong?

Becca Congrats mcnamort ;)

Becca shellebrownies- some is in the books and the HP Lexicon might help a bit but most of it you can't study for!
