A group of soon-to-be-first-years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry just walked into the Great Hall. Everybody has been sorted into a house of either Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, or Ravenclaw. Hufflepuff = Loyal and Trustworthy; Ravenclaw = cunning and intelligent; Gryffindor = brave and noble; Slytherin = keen and ambitious.
There are still 4 kids to be sorted. Their names are Billy, Shelby, Anthony, and Kristen. The sorting hat takes some time for each kid. Find out the amount of time the hat took and which house each kid ended up in.
Clue 1. Shelby is VERY smart.
Clue 2. Billy is a scaredy cat.
Clue 3. Billy and the boy in Slytherin took under a minute to be sorted.
Clue 4. Billy always keeps promises and is not very bright.
Clue 5. The person in Gryffindor took the longest.
Clue 6. Anthony was the fastest to be sorted.
Clue 7. Billy was sorted 30 seconds faster than the Ravenclaw.

Lots of fun, this, but I didn't need clues 4,5 & 6!
Quick & fun.
confusing for someone who doesnt follow harry potter
i need more of these easy ones to boost my confidence. keep them coming!
Thanks everyone, this is the first teaser of mine to ever be accepted!
Loved it! Nice job! Especially fun 'cuz I have read all the Harry Potters.
I have read Harry Potter, but I don't think that knowledge of the books or films affects this puzzle one way or the other. I think that it is a very good puzzle, even though a few of the clues seem to be unnecessary
very easy but good. keep em cumin
...
That was really cute. A few of the clues weren't needed, but it was fun to work out. I love to watch the Harry Potter movies with my son.
kinda easy for harry potter fans like myself...but fun
I'm glad you liked it!!! Maybe I should make more Harry Potter ones... what's your opinion???
Good job on your first teaser!! Keep 'em coming!
Just a tip if you ever submit another...You should have listed the times in the question; not everyone uses the logic grid solver.
Ok, thx I'll remember that!
ARGH! I am so sick of Harry Potter!
Good teaser, though.

Nice one! Congratulations on your first teaser! Keep 'em coming!
Good job on your first one. Lots of unnecessay clues. Look forward to another one!!
Ok everyone. Maybe I'll try to make the next one harder.... we'll just have to see. I was thinking of submitting another but I really don't have the time but I'll get back to Braingle as soon as possible.
didn't need all the clues. good job for a first one.
This is the best ive seen so far! Go Harry Potter!
Pretty easy, didn't need clue 4 or 7. Thanks for submitting.
A few unnecessary clues, quite easy, but I really enjoyed it. I liked the subject and the kinds of clues. Good job!
Pleasantly simple. I love Harry Potter so I enjoyed this very much.
Easy, but I loved the theme.
I love it a lot
Awesome! Well since I have so many people liking this, maybe I'll make a new Harry Potter one!
good quiz but very easy make more like this please
i dont know a thing about harry potter and it was easy for me i enjoyed it hope to see more from you
Great Teaser, Thanks!
I agree with PineappleMama. Still a good teaser especially for Harry Potteer fanatics like me. Very fun!
The only thing I don't like about it is the way Hufflepuff is portrayed as dumb. There are plenty of smart or brave Hufflepuffs - they just aren't haughty enough for Ravenclaw, or bold enough to be in Gryffindor. Overall one of my favorite teasers though! Keep them coming!
That was really fun! Good for beginners, but on the easier side for.
