It could, but in this case it was out of Dumbledore's control. He 
would've waited as long as Voldemort had wanted, but it was Voldemort 
the one that planed the Portkey!cup, after all, and I think it 
surprised Dumbledore as much as everyone else. As I've said three times 
previously today, if he had known, since he's not black, merely grey, 
he would have sent to help Harry something more than Cedric "Spare" 
Diggory.

My/Pip's theory believes that Dumbledore has been controlling the way 
the things should be going, not the timetable they should follow. Of 
course Dumbledore would have prefered waiting another 10 years before 
Harry had to join the fight, but Voldemort made his move much sooner, 
and Dumbledore had to put his plans into motion (in fact, everything 
started to move when Dumbledore took out the stone from the vault. 
Before that, everything was a stalemate).

It's perfect! I love it. Let's get some nice Moderator to put it in 
Inish Alley, since this is one I'm going to be using and wouldn't want 
to forget it (I'd put it up myself, but I haven't permission). Please? 
Pretty please with a cherry on top? :-)

Oh, and here is the official helper badge of TAGWATCH for your 
colaboration. It's got a wolf and a ship on it, and allows you a free 
visit to either the LOLLIPOPS ship (for a free-of-charge cruiser, no 
strings attached) or to my Cold North (bring skies. I know of a few 
good places whatever your level) :-)

Hope that helps,

Grey Wolf, defender of MAGIC DISHWASHER
