Line 97:
**** It was mentioned earlier that anyone chosen by the Goblet was put under a powerful, binding magical contract, which meant that they ''had'' to participate. Dumbledore warns of this when he tells the students who are of age to not sign up frivolously, but to be certain that they want to potentially go through with it.
**** On the other hand, the judges allowed him to continue after he went over the time limit in the water challenge. If they had stuck to the rules of the challenge, Harry would have been disqualified, and Voldemort would have stayed dead.
**** Worse yet, one of the contest rules is that contestants are not allowed to receive help from staff. ''Any'' teacher in Hogwarts could have DQ'ed Harry at any time, with Dumbledore's permission or not, simply by handing him a cheat sheet in front of witnesses. (While Fleur and Viktor broke this rule several times and still remained in the contest, the key words here are "in front of witnesses".)
* In ''[[Stationery Voyagers]]'', Alhox has a legitimate excuse (his [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|head trauma]]) for [[Devil in Plain Sight|not immediately figuring out]] what the Mystery Wanderer [[Obviously Evil|so plainly is]]. The other characters [[Horrible Judge of Character|really have no excuse]] for being [[Unwitting Pawn|so easily manipulated]]. Still, they begin to have suspicions about him. However, the most Pinkata does is say: "I have a feeling he's a really bad man." Had she voiced her "[[Cassandra Truth|crazier]]" suspicion that he was {{spoiler|Melchar}}, Alhox would have put two and two together - and a third of the series' entire plot would immediately disintegrate. All this trouble because the [[Only Sane Man|Only Sane Woman]] [[Cannot Spit It Out]].
