I think you have to play games to unlock info. I guess the Scottish Book wasn't working for her. I don't want to freakin play games for stuff, i couldn't be bothered, I just wanted the info all in a book, and even then, she'd probably have stuff in there that would shatter my illusions :p

I agree. Slytherin is such a great house and J.K. always bashes on them. That moment i was waiting for them to finally unite with the others like the sorting hat said too, and she made all of them leave. WTF!!! Every kid isnt evil in that house, majority probably are good people.

But the big thing (to me) that she said was this:
"In the main novel you only see the houses through the eyes of the heroes.
