also fun trivia. i actually bothered to read the rules of quidditch before today's match, and i learned two things i was doing wrong:
1) when players get injured or killed, they are not replaced. you just keep playing without a goddamn seeker. which i guess i should've known from how harry's matches work considering he was murdered like four times during a quidditch match and they never subbed anyone in, but oh my god????? anyway so i'm calling this one american rules
2) when you get a penalty, the other team gets a penalty shot. that probably should've been obvious. i don't know why it never occurred to me. so anyway. now we're going to get penalty shots in our matches
this is a Professional Harry Potter Game i'm running here
