Hi:

Here's the GOF Spoiler Warning & Spoiler Space for those who still
need it. The consensus of people on the chat yesterday was that we
would continue to use spoilers for Book 4 for one more month. I know,
I know . . . tired of them myself.

<<<Harry's solution to the Dragon task was to use a spell to summon
his broom from his room. Now I enjoy Harry's broom riding as much as
anyone but there is a small logical problem. Why not just summon the
egg? He doesn't have to see the object he is summoning so that isn't
the answer. Even if the dragon sitting on it was the problem, then he
could summon it as soon as the dragon got off the egg. That way, there
wouldn't be any risk to him.>>>

My guess is that this would be "against the rules." We aren't told what
the specific rules are, but if the point of the task is to test the
bravery & daring of the champions, it would defeat the purpose if they
could just summon the egg.
