Analysis
Perhaps the thoughts on what certain plot points and clues might mean would be better placed under the heading of 'analysis'. Or even a new heading entirely. I'm not proficient with Wikipedia, though... --anon 81.151.241.20 2005-08-03 18:20:29 UTC Wait...the reason old regulus was killed was because he "got in too deep, and wanted out". I think that whoever was killed was going to be killed by Voldemort, but not because of the horcrux. Remember I know that I will be dead long before you read this. But I want you to know that it was I who discovered your secret. If it was regulus black, then this is how it happened. 1. Regulus finds out 2. Regulus doesn't dare tell Voldemort, because he would be killed, if he let slip the secret of Voldemort's success. 3. So he tries to slip ot quietly and... 4. Voldemort gets angry, and sends out a few death eater pals to do him in. 5. Regulus runs for it, taking Kreacher with him to destroy the Horcrux, not knowing there are many more. 6. Regulus uses the house elf, who must obey him, to disapperate them both home, knowing that while Kreacher is suffering, he must obey. 7. He cures Kreacher,who is nonetheless damaged. 8. Here come the death eaters... 9. ...he hides the horcrux, placing the note inside, and... 10. They kill him, leaving the horcrux undiscovered for many years, until the Order clean up the house. --anon
 * Exactly! Yes.  That's the idea.  Be bold! (This is Wikibooks, not Wikipedia, by the way.) I'll start you off. (But only start you off.) Uncle G 19:47:41, 2005-08-03 (UTC)

I guess the date of the book being 50 years old and the half-blood prince being Snape is not connected cause Snape is not 50 being in the same year as James and Lilly Potter


 * Are there not used book stores? Ginny had old, used textbooks, Snape was equally poor, likely he had a used Potions book. So the book would have had to be at least 18 years old at this point, but could easily be older. Chazz (talk) 18:11, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
