Bob Odgen? The wizard who meets Morfin Gaunt for Law Enforcement? Isnt Bloody Baron mentioned more?

I believe it is because typing in "Bob," a common, random English name, works for Ogden. People taking the quiz probably were just messing around and typing a random name and got him, despite having no clue who he is. It's still amusing, however!

Because Parvati was in Gryffindor, like the main characters, while Padma was in Ravenclaw, so we didn't see her nearly as much.

Dec 12, 2019
That makes me HIGHLY suspect of the veracity of these counts. I'd wager Marge Dursley isn't mentioned more than half the times listed.
TheKindCowboy
+2
Level 55
Apr 22, 2022
While Marge wasn't actively present in the series very much, she was mentioned a few times by Harry when he was thinking about his summers at the Dursley's. You also have to think about the scolding he got for breaking the Statute of Secrecy, which a few people talked to him about. It does seem very strange that she was mentioned more than the Fat Lady, Madam Rosemerta and Ms. Norris.

36/100, was always one of those franchises that I wanted to get into but kind of just read or watched occasionally, didn't read all of them and it's been a minute since I watched most of the movies but I started rewatching them recently. What's funny is that I sometimes forget high ones like Lupin but then I got Phineas Black, I apparently got Bob Ogden one time probably because I just randomly guessed the name Bob as a joke

I'm quite proud of that despite the fact that I read the books a lot and listen to the Audiobooks quite a bit as well.

There should of been some characters I should of got like, Peeves, Myrtle, Karkaroff etc.

It also surprises me how many times Lily and James are mentioned as they are literally dead for the entire series. But I guess they are mentioned quite a bit throughout.

Good quiz though!
