Rules of Entry
  1. The story must take into consideration book 6's events and new information. You are encouraged to use any new ideas that were mentioned – you cannot pretend that events in the book did not happen.
  2. The story can be of any length, it can be continued after the competition ends, and does not need to be finished when the voting period starts.
  3. The story must have been started AFTER July 16th and the author must have read the Half Blood Prince before starting the story.
  4. Stories can be as many chapters/words as the author desires, and no preference is given to short or long stories.
  5. The story may not be set in the periods of year 1 – 5. This means authors may not go back and re-write one of the previous books. Authors may, however, write fanfiction which happens during the 6th book if they wish to.
  6. Authors may not bribe their readers into giving them good reviews - eg saying they will update their story faster if they recieve high ratings.
  7. Users may not make multiple accounts for the purpose of giving a particular story high ratings. We have a number of ways of detecting this and the offenders may be banned from Portkey.
  8. Any "random prizes" will be distributed totally by random by the administrators of Portkey and it is at their sole discression as to how that will be done.
  9. This competition is run for the fun of the community out of our own pockets. If any unexpected events occur such as a problem in delivering prizes, we are not liable in any way.
  10. The competition is about having fun, so have fun! :)
