I agree with those who believe that Voldemort would not want to share power with anyone, even a version of himself, therefore, why allow the diary to be made and then let it get out of control.

But the whole action in COS, the basilisk and all, does nothing to achieve that and throws away what could be a powerful tool to help Voldemort when he is finally restored.  A deadly beast inside his enerny's cidital, what more could he ask for?

Errr... no, MAGIC DISHWASHER doesn't say that. that's only one of the 
possibilities, but I myself formally accepted another possibility, that 
there is a fourth player: Lucius that is trying to overthrow Voldemort 
with his own plans. At any rate, neither form part of the main, basic 
theory of MAGIC DISHWASHER. Not that I can blame you, Chris: MAGIC 
DISHWASHER seems to have gotten out of hand (even for the three of us: 
Pip -creator-, Mel -defender- and my humble self -I supose I could be 
considered "enforecer"-), which is why we're always hiring.

Which brings me to the point that names this post. I have been in 
contact with the powers that be (in this particular case, Cindy) to set 
up a new poll in the list (which should pop up around this post, 
hopefully). It will be a poll about what you feel your knowledge of 
MAGIC DISHWASHER is (from "never heard of it" to "I know it perfectly") 
and, even more importantly, if you feel you need a re-cap post.

Because, you see, I'm thinking that we might need one. But with the 
three major MAGIC DISHWASHER threads numbering the posts to be re-read 
in the hundreds, I'm unwilling to undertake such task unless I feel the 
list really wants it (I hope you can understand that, and that I'm not 
coming off as lazy).

So, my point is that the poll will be open for about a month, at the 
end of which I'll see what the general feeling about the post is, what 
tone it should take, and if enough people are interested for me to make 
a serius atempt at condensing all the info into something managable.

If everything goes according to my plan, the poll shouldn't display 
names and only admit one position per person (although you can of 
course change that position as many times as you want for the duration 
of the poll).

Finally, any questions you may have about the poll (although I hope it 
will be self-explanatory) can be sent to me.

Hope that helps,

Grey Wolf
