No, you can use them more broadly than that. There is often heated 
discussion of events that occur in one particular chapter, outside of 
an organised chapter-discussion thread. Its quite ok, and a good 
idea, to code to chapter as much as you can. It means that the future 
reader of a thread on Chapter X will see all shades of opinions and 
discussion on things that happened there.

For instance, I have just dealt with a long thread all about the 
nature of the blood protection that Voldie got by taking the blood 
from Harry in the graveyard. The main focus of the thread was whether 
the protection worked if the blood hadn't been forcibly taken, eg 
could Moody have taken the blood from Harry in the guise of a DADA 
experiment etc, and given it to Voldie. I was coding mainly to 
Voldie's agenda, Harry, Barty Crouch Jr, and blood protection, but I 
also added Ch 32 of GOF, Flesh, Blood and Bone quite often.

In order to use the chapter codes successfully, though, you do need 
to know what's in the chapters very well. Advise having the books 
piled up next to your computer..
