The fact that people are willing to spend almost half a million dollars to get Pottermore account which will be free to everybody in 2 months is almost sickening.
August 2011
Those two pottermore accounts on ebay are definitely shill bidding.
Especially the second. The first one had legit bids for about $5 but then it went up to ridiculous amount.
GUYS GUYS GUYS
I just logged onto my Pottermore account because it’s lunch and I have no friends whatever.
And it says I’m (and I quote)
one of the lucky few to shape the experience before the site opens to all in October.
And that I
may have to wait a few weeks for your Welcome email to arrive as we can’t let everyone into the Beta site at the same time.
And that they
look forward to seeing you.
IS THIS REAL LIFE? AM I ONE OF THE ONE MILLION?
BLOODY HELL.
FALLING SKIES IN 2 MINUTES, YAY. ALSO, GOOD LUCK TO YOU GUYS! <3

Reblog this if you had the honor of getting into Pottermore on the first night!
I read the questions you're getting and you're right. How come we stayed until 3 a.m. to get the clue and register and they just get the access to the site just like that? I also have 2 accounts because of some misspellings I did but I wouldn't be able to kind of take someone's credit. I wouldn't be satisfied if I didn't do it by myself you know? I hope I make sense. :)
finally someone who sees where im getting at.
it’s not fair to us that we had to stay up, pulling an all nighter just for a clue, but other people are just getting it handed to them without having to work for it.
it’s not fair to us nor to the other people who are trying their best to get in.
if they want to give away their extra account(s), I’m sure that they can wait until AFTER the 6 days is already over, then they can give it away to the people who wanted to join but couldnt.
but they all still have 6 chances to get in, so i dont see why they’re already giving it away.
Anyone else still exhausted from last night? Maybe it's just cause I'm sick but I feel terrible. But still, SO HAPPY.
I'm looking through the Pottermore tag and I see a ton of people freaking out.
Luckily, I dealt with this all yesterday and so I can just sit back and not have a heart attack.
Anyways, if any of you have questions about the process, hit up my ask.
I’m really bored and I want to be useful.
Some people have multiple accounts made in the heat of the moment while waiting for the email. They aren't giving their's away, they are giving away the excess.
i understand that, but it’ll be better if they actually worked for their account instead of just getting it handed to them.
the point is to try your best to solve the clue and get in.
if it’s for the people who work and have school and can’t wake up, then ok give it them.
I honestly don't get why people are giving their accounts away. You worked for it, stayed up hours for it and now you're just giving it away? To someone who STILL has 6 chances to join? That's pretty dumb. You WORKED for it, so why give it away to someone who still has a chance of getting in. I'll understand if the 6 days were already over and you want to be nice because there's a bigger potterhead than you, but it just opened today and you're already giving it away?
If we already got in is there going to be something new for us or...? because people are waiting for the 2nd clue even though they already registered?
i don’t think so. we already found the first clue and registered, so the other 6 days and chances are for people who couldn’t get it/join on the first day to have a chance.
we just have to wait until it’s done and then wait for our welcome emails.
This is pissing me off. I'm seeing that a bunch of people on Tumblr made more than one account on the first day and are now giving them away. That totally ruins the entire clue thing. Only true Harry Potter fans deserve these early accounts and if you're not willing to stay up for this then in my opinion you don't deserve it. I get that you guys get tired, but in the past 48 hours I have only been able to grab an hour long nap and I'm staying up all of tonight to help people with the clue. I earned my account, by sticking with Harry even after everyone else was giving up, and now people are getting accounts handed to them based on popularity.

Reblog if you don't want Tumblr to be the next Facebook.
I am so excited about getting into Pottermore early that I can hardly concentrate on anything else.
That awkward moment when..
You realize just how obsessed you are with Harry Potter, and that no one in your family honestly cares as much as you.
And at first you’re just like..
But then really, your like..

This new Harry Potter project is going to be a good chance for fans everywhere to unite and become part of a world that they have been reading about for about 13 years.
Last night, I stayed up until 9am just to get the clue to get early access. Call me sad, geeky, obsessed but Harry Potter made…
When I officially register and get accepted into Pottermore:
“MUM! DAD! WE HAVE A WITCH IN THE FAMILY!”
after eating a shit ton of food...
I’M NOT EATING FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.
TEN MINUTES LATER…
SO TRUE
