I did hear the "Doomspell Tournament" but I can't remember where.  It 
wasn't on the internet, for sure, so maybe my bookstore did tell me.  
When GF was published I was in England, so I wasn't really surprised 
by the different title.  I thought maybe the American publishers were 
changing it for some unknown reason.  I thought GF was a much more 
enchanting title anyway.
