No intention?

So the story isn't planned to end with Harry creating a godlike super entity operating outside of time to ensure eternal life for all thinking beings, to download of all consciousnesses throughout history at their point of death, to lay the foundations of magic, and in that way to all at once resolve questions regarding Atlantis, the afterlife, and how to write the happiest, most clearly drunk on wish fulfillment and indulgent to the 'bargaining' stage of grief/acceptance-est ending possible?

That's a really good explanation for how Dumbledore's recollection of the purposeless evil of Voldemort can be reconciled with the clearly purposeful evil of Quirrell.

Thomas Marvolo Gaunt-Riddle, hero of wizarding Britain? Though since Dumbledore knows that Tom Riddle is Voldemort that seems like quite the narrow escape; his game would be up if Bones and Dumbledore talked openly to each other.

So, it seems more likely that Quirrel was behind the plot.

The thing about there only being seven houses seems big, though, and as far I can tell isn't from canon. (The list of purebloods, for example, doesn't include Jugson, though 500 years old might not be enough to be Most Ancient. I think we have HPMOR confirmation of Malfoy, Potter, Greengrass, and Longbottom, and I think in canon the only ones that get that description are Malfoy, Black, and maybe Potter (really, Peverell).

The 1926 hint narrows it down to four canon characters (though, of course, Bones might be mistaken). Interestingly enough, all of them were sorted into Slytherin- Tom Riddle, Rosier, Avery, and Lestrange. All of them were Death Eaters, and so it seems most likely it's Tom Riddle. (He would be the last of the female line of the Gaunt family, descended from Salazar Slytherin, which seems like it qualifies for Most Ancient. But I suspect the female line doesn't count for things like the Wizengamot, in canon at least.)

(Interestingly, in canon, Morfin Gaunt was memory-charmed to believe that he was the murderer of Voldemort's parents. Riddle did that to cover up a number of his murders. Even more pieces falling into place.)

Tom Riddle as hero seems... really bizarre, though. Who was Voldemort instead? (It seems implausible that Voldemort could have been an alterego; I suspect quite a bit of his pureblood support came from his lineage.)

That is really interesting. But I can't help but feel like I'm violating his privacy when I read that:

"Likewise, please do not mirror or duplicate this page."

In light of that, it's difficult for me to feel OK reading it on WayBack Machine...

Does that preclude sequels?

Yes, we desperately need a tagging feature. Does anyone have any ideas on how to implement one?

http://predictionbook.com/predictions/3237 which is currently

HP MoR: Voldemort never intended Harry’s own death on the night of his parents’ death.

says in a comment

ArisKatsaris changed their prediction from “In “Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality” it will be revealed that Voldemort never intended Harry’s own death on the night of his parents’ death.” 2 days ago

Thing is I don't remember editing the text of that prediction myself. Now this is the sort of minor edit that might be thought to be utterly forgettable, but two days ago my Internet usage was extremely limited, and I'd not spend it editing predictionbook predictions.

It's highly unlikely that I was hacked with the sole purpose of changing "In “Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality” it will be revealed that " to "HP MoR: ".

So is this some sort of glitch in predictionbook which falsely records me editing the prediction, when in reality it was edited by some moderator? I'd prefer this to be fixed, as I don't like actions wrongly assigned to me -- though the fact that this particular instance is harmless enough, makes this a non-priority for me in this particular instance.

Either way I'd like a clarification, if possible, so that I'm sure my memory isn't so glitchy as to forget this.

I've forgotten.

I'm sorry I might have missed it, but where did the notion of humans being turned into house elves come from?
