About the "HP and the Doomspell Tournament" title for book IV--- Rowling was 
choosing between 3 titles: "HP and the  Goblet of Fire", "HP and the 
Triwizard Tournament" or "HP and the Doomspell Tournament". You all know why 
the 1st title was a * nominee * title (GoF} and the 2nd title you can 
probably guess why she chose that as a * nominee * title. ( Because that was 
what the whole book was based on for the most part!) The third * nominee* 
title might confuse you. That was chosen as a *nominee* title because she 
almost called the "Triwizard Tournament" the "Doomspell Tournament". I think 
I got this info. off an interview from Newsworld. I'm not sure, so correct 
me if I'm wrong. I don't know about the other titles though.
Bye,
