Hey! I sent you my sorting answers a while back and I was hoping you could do a ranked sort for me (I got into Slytherin btw). PS You've been doing a wonderful job on all this. Thanks so much for everything!

Question 1:

Hate people to call you: Ignorant>Ordinary>Selfish>Cowardly

Claw > Slyth > Puff > Gryff

Want people to think of when they hear my name: Don't care>Achievements>Adventures>Smile

Slyth > Claw > Gryff > Puff (unusual placement of Puff-last)

Which potion would you invent?: Glory>Power>Wisdom>Love

Gryff > Slyth > Claw > Puff (very unusual to see glory and power first) Want do you want to be known as?: Good>Great>Wise>Bold

Puff > Slyth > Claw > Gryff

So, wow! 1 of each House for Q1.

Question 2: Enchanted garden, which would you examine fist: Pool>Statue>Tree>Toadstools

Slyth > Gryff > Claw > Puff Instrument pleases your ear: Violin>Piano>Drum>Trumpet

Slyth > Claw > Gryff > Puff

Four boxes, pick one: Pewter>Merlin>Temptation>Squeaking

Gryff > Slyth > Claw > Puff

Four goblets, pick one: Golden sunspot>Silvery>Black>Purple

Gryff > Claw > Slyth > Puff

Flutterby flower produces a scent to attract you, what scent would that be?: Parchment>Fire>Home>Sea

Claw > Gryff > Puff > Slyth

2 Gryff, 2 Slyth, 1 Claw on Q2

Question 3:

A troll is gone berserk in Headmaster’s study at hogwarts, pick (in order) what you will save from his/her office: Merlin book>Records>Cure

Slytherin primary; if there are tertiary weightings, Ravenclaw has a tertiary on this. Fairly unusual answer (cure-last is Slytherin-defining and very uncommon.) Which would you rather be: Trusted>Liked>Praised>Envied>Imitated>Feared

Hufflepuff/Gryff > Puff > Gryffinslyth > Slyth > Claw > Slyth

ATTENTION BAD QUESTION. Usual rant about trusted: 50% of Gryffs, Puffs, and Claws give this answer; it's Slyth's #2; trusted + praised + liked = 75%+ of all answers; Ravenclaw has no good answer; Slytherin's answers are also rather disadvantaged but not as badly. All in all, just a really bad question.

Most difficult to deal with: Loneliness>Being Ignored>Cold>Hunger>Boredom

Huffledor > Ravenslyth > Slytherpuff > Huffleclaw > Gryffinslyth

So Q3 is split: 2 Huffledor and 1 Slytherclaw, but trusted is really bad if you want a fair Sorting.

What are you looking forward to at Hogwarts?: Everything>Secrets>Apparition>Transfiguration>Flying>Hexes> creatures

Ravenclaw primary/Slyth secondary > Gryff > Slytherdor > Claw > Huffledor > Slyth > Puff

What power would you choose?: Change appearance>Speak to animals>Invisibility>Change past>Read minds>Superhuman strength

Slytherclaw > Huffleclaw > Gryff > Slytherdor > Ravenslyth > Puff

Which would you most like to study?:

Merpeople>Centaurs>Ghosts>Vampires>Goblins>Werewolves>Trolls

Slyth > Ravendor > Gryffinclaw > Slytherpuff > Slytherclaw > Huffledor > Puff

So Q4 is firmly Slytherclaw.

Question 5: House mate has cheated, Flitwick suspects something. What do you do?: Tell Flitwick to ask the student>Lie>Tell the truth>Tell in advance

Gryff > Puff > Claw > Slyth Troll insists on fighting one of you what do you do?: Suggest all fight>Confuse>Draw lots>Volunteer

Slyth > Claw > Puff > Gryff

Which road tempts you?: Woods>Ancient buildings>Grassy lane>Alley

Gryff > Claw > Puff > Slyth Nightmare frightens you most: No one knows me>Voice>Falling>Keyhole

Puff > Slyth > Claw > Gryff. Very unusual ranking, especially voice so high/eye so low. Hear a peculiar cry that may have a magical source, what do you do?: Proceed with caution>Withdraw into shadows>Discover source>Stand ground

Puff > Claw > Gryff > Slyth Muggle confronts you, what do you do?: Agree and walk away>Ask why>Jinx>Call doctor

Gryff > Claw > Slyth > Puff

So 3 Gryff, 2 Puff, 1 Slyth. Question 6: Dawn or Dusk?: Dusk>Dawn Huffleslyth > Ravendor Moon or stars: Moon>Stars Slytherclaw > Huffledor Forest or River?:

River>Forest Slytherpuff > Gryffinclaw

Very firmly Slyth Q6.

Question 7: Heads or Tails: Tails>Heads Gryffinslyth > Ravenpuff Left or Right?: Left>Right Ravenslyth > Gryffinpuff Black or White? Black>White Slytherdor > Huffleclaw

And again very firmly Slyth Q7.

1. After you have died, what would you most like people to do when they hear your name?I don’t care what people think of me after I’m dead; it’s what they think of me while I’m alive that counts.

2. Four goblets are placed before you. Which would you choose to drink? The golden liquid so bright that it hurts the eye, and which makes sunspots dance all around the room.

3. Which would you rather be: Trusted

4. If you could have any power, which would you choose? The power to change your appearance at will

5. One of your house mates has cheated in a Hogwarts exam by using a Self-Spelling Quill. Now he has come top of the class in Charms, beating you into second place. Professor Flitwick is suspicious of what happened. He draws you to one side after his lesson and asks you whether or not your classmate used a forbidden quill. What do you do? Tell Professor Flitwick that he ought to ask your classmate (and resolve to tell your classmate that if he doesn’t tell the truth, you will).

6. Dawn or dusk? Dusk

7. Left or right? Left

My House: Slytherin

**

Slytherin

Gryffindor (It's a fiery potion; forests and fires are Gryff's things.)

Hufflepuff/Gryffindor, but see all my rants on how this is a really unfair question (50% of Ravenclaws pick this answer, and it's Slytherin's #2 as well - basically, it's way too appealing. Ravenclaw, and to a lesser extent Slytherin, are very disadvantaged on this question - Ravenclaw gets no good primary answers or secondaries!) 

Slytherin/Ravenclaw, more Slyth than Claw, but more Claws than Slyths pick it in practice. It may have tertiary Gryff weight (or is simply disproportionately chosen.) 

Gryffindor. The Slyth answer is disadvantaged on this one (tell before test.)

Slytherpuff, more Puff than Slyth if fradine's theory is right.

Ravenclaw/Slytherin, more Claw than Slyth.
