OMG my credit card is very  worried  :o

http://www.alivans.com/cart/edit.asp?p=95997

And its personallised. Some cover my eyes NOW!

I get the newsletter from Alivans so I've already seen this.

I'm going to get one since I really dont want to make one  because I'm scared it will come out ugly :o

Its cool becuase you can make your own or a Movie version ;D

Yeah I want my own fan fic version ;D . I got an Alivan's news letter but it wasn't on it, it was just when I went to have a look at the ties there were advertising I saw it  :o

Yeah, I think I might make my own after I buy the Movie version too

Then your will have something to fall back on if yours doesn't come out as planned.

Are you going to get one

bought one

or
 is going to?

I have a feeling I very well might although I have got the money until next week

I dont have the money right know ether :P Buying the Pink Tops going to drain me ;)

Next guestion is are you going to get a movie version or book or your fan fic?

Definately my fan fic with the trio and my three characters ;D

Cool 8). I'm going to write Alivans asking if I ask for the trio to be on my map is that OK or are they already on the map and I get pick three other characters to add on to the map. If not then I'll be going with the the trio. I'd like to have Monica and myself walking around Hogwarts but I'm not in the movie ;)

Yeah thats what I was getting confused about if they will already be on the map or not. Do let me know what they say. Also it wants your name to put on the top but I would reather Mooney and co so not sure how that works either.

Will do :)


I'll be asking about this too. Hope this helps: Theres two spaces Nickname/Name and Friends. You feel out Moony in Nickname/Name and Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs into the Friends. They should put it in order ;D

Yes I had a feeling that might be the plan. ;D

Just e-mail'd them, should have one soon or tomorrow :)

Oh cool, someone certainly had a good idea with that map.

Yeah, I know. I just hope that its not there for a limited time :'( . The robe use to be limited time. but they brought it back. If enought people buy it, it should stay ;D

Well I should imagine its all set up now, they just need to add your names and stuff.

Wow! :o I'd love one of those! afriend of mine and i have made a website about hogwarts in the future and death eaters becoming death eternals in order to steal you-know-who's remains and bring him back to life, and we changed the names of the houses and changed Hogwarts to NaKaoms (Nixemus and Kaedas academy of magic) and we have names and everything and it would be so good if we could get one! but i live in britain and i cant buy stuff from america! not fair! >:( but anyway!

btw the website is: www.deatheternals.tk (http://www.deatheternals.tk) ;)

Nix I live in Britain and it didn't stop me buying a wand from Alivans ;) you just need to keep an eye on how much you spend so you don't get hit by import tax :(

how do you get the money changed from pounds to dollars? is that done automatically?

I paid by my credit card and it chances it automatically ;D

o rite, well im 14 so i dont have a credit card, and mi parents wont use their credit cards over the internet! >:()

My mom doesnt think we need a credit card :P Thank god for moneyorder ::)

Well as long as the site is secure they shouldn't worry ::). I'm not sure if debit cards work the same way :-\

My mom doesnt have a debit card ether. All we have is a ATM Card. All three of us.

Have you heard anything yet Mike?

No, its weird but if its not that inportant they wont reply to is anytime soon ::)

Should  have told them my money won't last forever ;)

Ok, I've gotten the reply

My questions

Hi, With the new Marauder's Map do you add other characters to the map besides the three we provide you or are these the only three. If yes, who? I'm going to purchase one of these because I'm a huge fan of Harry Potter and am planning on providing information to make a Movie Version. With the Nickname and Friends section. If I add Moony in Nickname and Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs (the names on the real map), in that order, in both sections will they be added to the map that way? Thank you,

their answer:
Hi Michael,
 
The names you provide are the ones we will put on the map. You are correct in your guess on the name order--if you put any combination of those four names in "nickname" and "friends" that is what will go in the title.

Cool but are Harry, Ron and Herm there already  ???

I dont think so, thats why I'm going to provide their names for them just in case

AH I have a get out plan :D If you end up with two Harrys, Rons and Hermiones its because they used the time turner ;) easy peasy ;D I will have to wait to get mine now I have my eyes on an other SS box  ::)

I'll be ordering mine next week. Should get it in about three weeks after

im getting one

I hate that I have to order with a Money Order because I have to wait longer then with a Credit Card ::)

If any body is planning on buying a Map from Alivans it may be a while before you can. When I went to order it, it wasnt on the New Items page so I decided to e-mail them to see if it was just site failure or de-fault. This is what I got (I asked if there was a reason why the new Mauaraders Map was removed from the offical site)

Hello Michael,

Yes, we were asked to remove it by Warner Brothers. We are, however, working
on a new version!

Celia

Why would Warner Bros. take it down, I thought Alivans would have to ask to use it to begin with :-\ :'(
 

Oh poo :( but they have changed it so it was different didn't they? It wasn't even called the marauders map  :'(

ah, the pains of copyright...
