In all seriousness though, should we take this

The Defense Professor - Hat-and-Cloak, Quirrell, Voldemort - raised his wand

As Word of God that Quirrell is H&C? Or just a trick within a trick?

No, you definitely should not. I wrote that line, I don't know if it's true, I just made it up.

Could you please rename this thread to something like “HPMoR April Fool’s discussion thread”? We’ll need to create a new thread for the actual chapter 82 later today (unless you have information that Eliezer decides to include this as omake), and we’ll have confusion in all time zones.

You don't think Eliezer wrote that, do you?

I think either someone else wrote it, or he wrote it really quickly.

I thought it was a prank pulled by Eliezer until now, since the Facebook page linked to it. I suppose shockwave controls that Facebook page...

Definitely. At least for the next 42 minutes.
