At just that moment, when all seems lost… How would you rate it? A 0.9 or a 1.0?

He does give the excuse of the 30-day rule, but yes, that was incredibly feeble. At first I wanted to give this one a 0.7. But – hey, wait a minute – has anyone counted the days to determine Dumbledore’s exact date of death? How can it have been July first if it was a normal school day? This one isn’t just about incredible luck. It’s also about bad math. 1.0

Shakelbolts Talking patronus ...Just in time

That one wasn’t so bad. Voldemort predicted in the first chapter (you were probably too busy worrying about the Muggle Studies teacher to notice) that the ministry would fall “next Saturday,” and I presume that the wedding was on a Saturday. And of course, Shacklebolt would do all that he could to warn them. 0.3?

I could defend Hermione’s little bag by reminding you that she worked hard on it. But I won’t.
Does anyone remember Gilligan’s Island? Any time they needed an expert in something, “the Professor” was there. How anyone would be an expert in so many unrelated fields they never fully explained, and neither does JKR. 1.0?

I promised myself I wouldn't go off the scale; that the worst one would be the standard. Now I need to knock the others all down a peg.
