[HPforGrownups] Ther Inter-house Championship (book four)

Well, it was NOT said that the House Cup was given to ANY House. The colors 
in the hall (usually colors of the winning House) were black in the memory 
of Cedric Diggory.

Secondly, All Houses were to support Hogwarts Champions. No house cup given 
that year! The colours in the Great Hall - had it not been for unfortunate 
death-case - would have been colours of the [i]school[/i] that won the 
Tri-wizard Cup. (Hogwarts)

I think the competition for House-Cup as well as for Quidditch-Cup wasn't in 
force that year. Didn't you notice that in the whole PoA no teacher took or 
gave points to any house - even though some students were given detention?

Anyway, how would participating (only one student/school by original plan) 
and winning the Tri-Wizard competition rate in House-Points?
Or the scene in that grave-yard? How'd you rate THAT? Only fair thing is to 
stop all system for the competition...

So - Inter-House Championship of the Year of Tri-wizard Competition does NOT 
exist.

On side note: Harry Potter [i]did[/i] earn the cup.
1) Harry won Cedric clearly in First Task. (and the other's, too)
2) Harry won Fleur Delacourt clearly in Second Task(we might consider him 
EVEN)
3) The Maze. Fleur was already lost. Krum was totally helpless against 
Imperius Curse. Cedric - though he did fine, and, in the reaching the cup, 
may have been yet Harry's equal (despite his inadequance in the First) - 
well, Cedric didn't manage to duck death-curse right after Cruciatus - Harry 
did. (And Harry was tortured twice). Also, Harry was well able to resist 
Imperius unlike Krum...
