Of course Fleur has to be somewhat impressive. Otherwise she would
never have been chosen as champion. No one's implying she's a squib or
anything. I believe the point was that she was the least powerful OF
THE CHAMPIONS. Anyway, I doubt the whole wand length theory. Maybe JKR
just draws numbers randomly out of a hat. :)

And yes, I am a newbie. Let me introduce myself: Liz Muir, a.k.a.
Brittany Avalon in the wizarding world. I am 15 (16 in a few months)
and quite disgusted with all the teenage lists. Online, I work for
iharrypotter.net, a Harry Potter news site where I'm a gaming editor. I
used to run a Hogwarts, but that went overboard as they tend to do.
Anyway, I'm here now, and interested in learning some cool theories so
. . . .
