      What if they used the omnioculars? They can look into the past without interacting with it like a recording or video but does so by letting you actually look into the past. Also they have slow motion abilities to slow the passage of time for the observer. It may be possible to force the time dilation and tunneling effects simultaneously which would theoretically allow the user to look at any point in time so long as they can meet the power requirements but as we know from cannon even powerful time magic has major limits so it's safe to assume the amount of time one could see into the future with this method would far less than as it would require the power source to energize both operations simulatiously

      i think instead of the twins intercepting Percy's time turner, Arthur had one. If Percy went to return his, and it's missing, there would be an investigation into it. However, if Arthur had one for any reason, it would be easy to swipe without anyone's knowing. If Arthur doesn't know where it went, then he could easily assume that he either returned it (if it was gone for an extended period of time), or that he simply misplaced it and will find it later.
      But, Arthur's also a part of the MOM, so, him getting access to one wouldn't be that hard. He could either be given one for his job (maybe he has to use it occasionally to find missing magical items among the muggles), or, he managed to get the paperwork done to get one, or, even just managed to swipe one for himself, and either forged documents for it, or took it at an opportune time (not sure if he's the type to steal a time turner however). In which case, if he loses it, he can't report it as missing to the ministry as they'd have to have 2 investigations, 1 into him having stolen one, and one into the secondary theft.
      But, I do think that Arthur had one (probably legitimately), and that the twins swiped it at some point and then used it. It's likely that Arthur keeps it locked up somewhere where his kids (theoretically) can't get to it, and only pulls it out when he needs to go to work, and the twins happened to have found it at some point, and use it occasionally, with this event being one of those use cases.

      Excellent! And it's even easier than that: Much simpler to just hide somewhere during the match (say, just outside the stadium), and then just use the time turner once to go back to make the bet and attend the match. They don't say anything so as not to give away the fact that they already know the outcome. If they don't want to violate the "5-hour limit" they can go back in two hops. And yes, it would still work if even just one of them did it.

    • @leventebardossy5962
      @leventebardossy5962 ปีที่แล้ว +40

      1: Elf magic is different from human magic. Dobby can Apparate to places which would be inaccessible to humans, like Hogwarts or Malfoy manor. He also has the power to lok certain "gateways", like the one that leads to Platform 9 3/4. That's my theory. The "ancient love magic" spell Dumbledore used to protect Harry at Privet Drive only locks humans out. Probably it blocks AApparition in the house, as everyone either arrives there through the door or the fireplace. Dobby can exploit the loophole. Locks the barrier around the house so that owls can't pass. They get confused, circle around, then Dobby Apparates there once a day, steals the letters, then goes back to serve the Malfoys. The owls never reach Harry, and it's mentioned no owl ever came that summer.
      2: I always thought Hagrid lied.

      Flesh-eating slugs could be omnivores. Many animals eat both plants and meat. Normal slugs don't eat human flesh, though. So, a slug that does so in addition to the more typical slug diet would be notable enough that it would be named by that oddity.

      Right. Like, J keeps saying how the bet made no sense, except it obviously did, because it's exactly what happened. Therefore it's not at all out of the realm of possibility that Fred and George would have studied the Ireland and Bulgaria teams and their main players thoroughly beforehand, expecting to make extra cash with bets. I mean, who goes around carrying their entire life savings with them? They clearly were already planning on doing some betting (which, in a big event like this, is pretty much a guarantee is gonna happen), I'm sure they studied the possibilities really well and knew it probably mattered more to Krum to catch the snitch than to win.

      if they were planning this all along all they had to do is make sure that they (or at least one of them) are not around ludo the first time he is taking bets, go watch the game quietly so that they are not the center of attention for once and when the game is finished immediately slip somewhere unseen and travel back in time. then they go to ludo (only the one not present in case they had the other one trail ludo to know where he will have been in the past) and make the bet. the future twins then go ahead and spend the rest of the day in hiding only to be exactly where they used the timeturner to travel back and "be in normal time again".
      them returning can be the exact moment where they are described in the story again and their smug grin is because they just spent the entire day knowing that they will win the bet.

      @riffbw ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If this theory is correct and making the assumption you cannot go forward, Fred and George slip away from the main cast and catch the game somewhere else or miss it entirely and wait for the result. Then they go back in time, and it's future Fred and George with the main cast, making the bet, and watching the game. This is why they're unnaturally quiet. When you already know the outcome, it's hard to get excited.

I really don't think they'd be that attentive of equipment checks especially when there's paperwork verifying the lendee as being reliable and trustworthy.

  • @AV-yj5yl

    Cool theory, but regarding Krum's decision to catch the snitch. Think of it as a way to save the Bulgarian team's image. A loss of 160-170 looks a lot better in papers than a loss of something like 3500-200. The Irish were dominating the match and Krum understood that it would look better for his team if the gap was small. If he let the game go on for a long time and they lost with a huge gap, many people would ridicule them potentially. This way they may have lost but at least they got the snitch and the match was close, not a complete curbstomp. It's even possible that was the strategy of the Bulgarian team going in. Catch the snitch as fast as you can, even if it means they lose.

    One thing that always got me about the Time Turners was that it is said you'd go mad if you saw yourself because you couldn't accept who you saw was you. Do identical twins have that problem? They constantly see someone who is identical to them in voice and looks so if you did approach your past self it wouldn't immediately click what you are seeing is you, just your twin.

  • @cgrimes34
    @cgrimes34 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    One part I think was missed that doesnt add up. Exactly when did they steal the time turner, and how did they avoid suspicion? The time turners were presumably logged out of the ministry when they were issued to Percy/Hermione. And with the use of a time turner requiring special approval from someone such as McGonnagal, we can also assume that the ministry knows who has them and knows when they can expect them to be returned. Percy finished year 7 at Hogwarts before the World Cup took place. An object so carefully regulated would not likely be something that a student, even Percy, could be trusted to take home at the end of the year. It’s reasonable to assume that the ministry would require Percy leave the time turner with McGonnagal before taking the train back to King’s Cross. If Fred and George had managed to take it at all, they would have taken it from Percy beofre the train ride, so he could not hand it in. McGonnagal would notice it was missing and have reproted it to the ministry. Granted, all of that could happen off page, but for Percy to keep secure his ministry job immediately after misplacing a heavily regulated magical object does seem highly unlikely, no matter how many good grades he got. The only possible way out of this is if McGonnagal managed to cover for Percy to give him time to find the time turner. McGonngal may have done so to protect Percy’s job, but the weeks it would take for the time turner to be returned would raise some eyebrows.

    Still works if time turner does only go backwards. They know to hide around the time of the bet, wait until the game, watch it in silence as they are waiting to go back in time once over to make the bet they his from earlier; Krum gets the snitch, they go back in time, make the bet with Ludo, and interact with everyone like it's all normal up until the game where they dip out and hide while past them watches the game. They sneak up to the top box, knowing how long it'll take to get up there and for the game to take, so that they can get there just after they go back in time to meet Ludo for their winnings.
    This theory works both way, and I think it's for sure how the boys did it

Plus, even if they had seen the name 'Peter Pettigrew' around Ron at some point, they probably don't know all of Ron's classmates well enough to say there wasn't a student named Peter in Gryffindor.

    the main problem with not being seen by yourself in the past is that it could disturb you and make you go crazy, if I remember it correctly from Hermoine? Well and that they are supposed to be a secret I guess. But Fred&George already now that it at least causes a duplication and I would assume if they had gotten their hands on a time turner they would test that thing out to its limits to understand how it works and what it actually does. They are inventors afterall. So in their case I would assume that they have no problem seeing their own future/past selves and as they are 2 people to begin with their options on how to use it would be a lot more compared to Percy or Hermoine

    3. They leave for a moment
    4. They go back AFTER the betting (they don't know the bet but they know they are going to win) and maybe even use their social skills to check what the bet is without being cought
    5. They go with everyone to see the match
    6. They confront Ludo about the win
    7. They hide in toilet that is out od service and use time turner
    8. They go back and actually do the betting when their passed selfs are away
    9. They hide in the toilet and put out of service card outside and wait for their passed copies to come without 3aby care of obeying the no see tyle3:)

    Although I like your theory with forward travel, wouldnt it make more sense for the following to happen?
    When Ludo appears, they notice the chance and decide to hide immediately planning for their future selves to slot in. Wait outside the stadium for the score, where it would be easily heard through the announcements, not that they banked on it. They probably were intending to speak to the first people out of the stadium "oh no, is it over already? What happened?"
    Then go back to the camp as the rest of the Weasleys and Harry and Hermione are in the stadium still, return to ludo and take the place.
    This makes more sense to me.

  • @vvFREAKOUTvv
    @vvFREAKOUTvv ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm not a big enough fan of Harry Potter to know the rules of their Time Travel, but what I understand from this video is that adding traveling to the future made this more complicated than it needs to be.
    most of the time(no pun intended) Time Travel rules dictate that you avoid your past self, So with it dealing with twins and a limited amount you can go back.( I like to think that the 5 hrs isn't a rule but more of a limitation of the time turners abilities) Fred and George could easily "telephone game" through time to send a message back as far as 5 hours before they obtained the Time Turner. For example: They watch the game, Fred goes back tells past George the highlights and then if need be past George use Turner to tell further past Fred the highlights. That right there covers at least 10 hours. Time Travel can be confusing but as long as there are set rules to a show, movie, book, Etc.'s universe then it's easier to follow.
    Edit: thinking about it, If they had a time turner why they get rid of it? Because George definitely would have used the Turner to go back and try to save Fred. or it could of been they got caught with it and it was destroyed.

    you made it too compllicated with the jumping forward in time thing. Using the standard going back in time deal, all they would have to do is: when they see Ludo placing bets, get the idea to watch the game and then go back and tell themselves the outcome so they can bet on it. Or leave themselves a note or something. Then, they go watch the game (hiding, like you say) and instantly travel back in time once the game is over, then tell the past themselves what to bet on. Since they already did this, the main timeline goes like this:
    1. they see Ludo making bets and hatch the plan
    2. future them magic a note into past them's pockets with instructions on what to bet and where and when to time-turn to
    3. they go watch the game, and then at the coordinated time and place, they time-turn into the past and future them assume their places

    I had a different idea, when the time of betting comes, Fred and George can just hide some place far away because they are confident that their future selves (after the match) will come and place the bet. They are confident because they have the Time Turner and will definitely go back. Then present Fred and George just wait for the match to be over, hear the results and go back. This time THEY will place the bets while the last Fred and George will hide at the specific place. Sounds more plausible than going in the future. Anyone reading this and have questions reply and I'll try to answer them.

  • @4everGemma

    Time turner theory (Feel free to steal it): There only ever was 1 time turner and the way you make a "new" one is to go back in time (so then there is suddenly two time turners, etc. etc.) That also explains why they couldn't just "make more" once the time turners were destroyed. Destroy one of them (actually because of how time travel works in the HP universe you could only ever destroy the oldest version) -> destroy all of them, forever. THE time turner is just as legendary an item as the elder wand, the cloak or the resurrection stone - even MORE so.

    Question what would have happened if Krum caught the Snitch when Ireland was 150 points behind? Would there be two champions, a second match or a penalty shoot-out?
    As for why Krum caught the Snitch the Irish seeker saw it first and went after it so Krum probably thought his only options were catching it and loose by ten or allowing Lynch to catch it and loose by 310.

  • @KyuketsukiRei
    @KyuketsukiRei ปีที่แล้ว

    Why would they need to go forward? If the time turner turns back and they're conspiring to make these changes, all they have to do is watch the game the first time, turn back time in an area away from their friends, then swap places with themselves at a designated location, make the bet with Ludo, and then swap back and watch the game like normal. There's no need to go forward to get the information, only to go back to change the outcome. Assuming the rest is just not being seen swapping with yourself, but that would have to be easy if you know where you're at, in on the secret, and wear the same clothes.

    To be fair, they do not need to travel into the future.
    They can, instead, be confronted in the past by themself, get send of to hide in some lower stands to watch the game while the time travlers make the bet and go to watch in the better seeds.
    Then, the past can go travel back and be the future ones.
    What IS stopping people from meeting themself? The fact that things have happened and always will happen the way they did, no? Fred & Gorge are probably reckless enough to plan that in, instead of having the main trios (or duo in that case) careful attitude to only intervene when they are sure they absolutely have to. If anyone would break causality to create a perfect loop for a bet, it would be the twins.
