Great story so far! I don't like how Harry's not catching on to clues now and again. You've shown him to be intelligent & cautious, and the next scene he'll turn around and make a dangerous assumption. That doesn't quite Gel.
I'm also concerned about the constant point of view changes. Looking at it from a "whole" perspective, and in hindsight, I can see why you change said PoV so often. However, while reading, it's very disconcerting to have such PoV changes. There's a reason most books that do well are written in ONE PoV, with as few changes as possible. It's because it helps suspension of disbelief. Having to readjust you're thinking as to what you think which character knows and how it affects them also causes problems. Like I said, I see your reasoning, I'm just concerned.
Beyond those two points, I'm absolutely enjoying every minute of this. Thank you for your efforts!
Sincerely,
Nicholas

All hail the mighty Jeconais, traveling throughout the relms rescuing great works shunned by the close-minded fools that doth run the abandoned wastelends of Fanfiction.net
Luckly for me, I happened to bookmark your Yahoo group a few days after chap 16 was posted.
Wonderful update as allways. I like the meeting with Ireland's MLE rep, Nothing like putting off someone's moring by informing them your busy saving the world.
Dumbledore's desperation is almost palitable, supporters leaving him, roumers of wrongdoing whittling away at his supprot, and now caught rummaging through a 15 yr old's diary for clues... You almost feel sorry for him.
Keep up the wonderful work, I was disapointed by book 6 (and to a lesser extent book 5 too) and in my own desperation have turned to the wonderful fanfic authors out there for more intelegent reading.

Interesting references to old-crow, there. Not to mention the other ffa author.
BTW, misspelled "foul" in the disclaimer.
Everything still moving forward. DD still doing his slide backwards into insanity. Hedwig went off to Gred and Forge? Oh, and will we have Harry rebuting the Prophet's comments in the Quibbler? Now that McG and Flitwick have definitely placed themselves against DD, I'm wondering how they're going to be getting along (and whether DD will try to spy on them for the same reasons he did Luna).
Still enjoying the story immensely and looking forward to more!

This chapter was one of my favourites for two reasons:
(1) It showed Harry using his head. The destruction of the Prophet and the fact that he left Malfoy alive, and
(2) Luna...
This story is damn brilliant.
Thanks for writing it.

EVIL CLIFFY!!!!!
Fabulous chapter, I'd been hoping for a bit more detailed description of what happened in the Great Hall at the end of ch17, but I'll get over it. Harry's response to the Prophet article was priceless, though I really don't see Lucius changing his mind so easily. Really, the man is almost Hufflepuff in his dedication to Voldemort, seeing how unlikely it is that Malfoy Sr will see any benefit from the Dark Lord's rule.
I mean a power-hungry, insane half-blood who lives to cause pain and misery. What does Lucius think his reward will be after all their enemies are crushed? Tom will just start culling the ranks of anybody he sees as a threat (cough-Malfoy-cough)to his power.
Anywayk, I hope that whoever met Harry up in the Astronomy Tower has his medical all paid up... oh wait, britain has socialized health care. he's set :)

Excellent chapter; I especially enjoyed the Gred and Forge interplay, not to mention Hermione's interesting reaction to rule-breaking. Time for a "good girls of Hogwarts gone bad" video?
Dumbledore seems determined to dig himself ever deeper, though he seems to finally catching a glimmer that his plans are completely FUBARed at this point.
All in all, this is by far one of my favorite ongoing stories, as well as one of the best SuperHarry pieces I've read to date. It also doesn't hurt that you are by far the most prolific writing team I've read to date, given the speed of your updates and the length of the chapters. Great, great work!

Your cracks about Old-crow's Yahoo site are a riot......now what is he going to do to Auror cadet Alyx????

This is a really great story, now I'm sure you guys have heard that hundreds of times before. But I have been reading fanfiction for over four years, and this fic is definitly one of the best. I hate it when FF.net kicks off stories. They always throw off the good ones. Well that's my spiel on the story and FF.net, keep up the good writing. By the way, I love the opening text at the top of the page.

Here is another pet peeve for you. Authors that takes polls on what is going to happen in THEIR story or who is going to be paired with who.
No for the reviev of your story. LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

Woohoo, you're here and you're back and ... and ... it's just brilliant!
Great chapter, can't wait for the next one as usual. Not much of a constructive review, but just wanted to say that I'm really glad to see you both back up and posting :-)

all I can say is good job! I do have one question. If Moldyshorts has control of Her Majesty's military, then wouldn't the Red Europe manuver him into gaining more territory? the clues stare you right in the face when the cituation seems vauge. please reply to my question concerning the Navals, k?

Damn. It's 1AM and I never took the blue jeans out of the dryer. How did that happen?
Excellent story. Great plot, nice movement, the voices are good. Even a believable "good" Draco, which is nice after so many undelievable ones.
Looking forward to the next installment. Hopefully not in the wee hours of the morning....

great chapter!

finally! well so far I have read all 17 chapters in 2 sittings.
virtually ALL the peeves you have listed are things I totally agree with.
I understand the desire to write in your favorite universe, but its a good idea to have some skills.
The team of Bob&Alyx (hey'all)are Highly skilled, intuitive and no doubt smell good too.
points:
this is first time I have found a Draco turnabout that looked believable.
:its nice to see Narcissa as a person and actually have some character development
: same thing for the doctors Granger. It gives some insight into the raising and development of Miss Hermione.
:Don't usually like superharry, but (suspension of disbeleif) this scenario seems plausible
:I am enjoying the whole RonisaPrat thing.
coming next episode:
flattery and egoBoo for our esteemed authors,
commentary on sex in fanfic.
use of the A/N in history ..
keep it up.I am soooo looking forward to the
next chapter.
