Pippin Writes:

<<Perhaps letting on that the Fidelius Charm would be used was
<<also a double-bluff. Voldemort was to assume that he had been
<<allowed to discover that Fidelius would be used to conceal the
<<Potters. Therefore he would suspect that it wasn't going to be
<<used at all, and wouldn't hunt  for the Secret Keeper.

<<James and Sirius, for their part, probably regarded the
<<"Wormtail" name as disinformation also: a bluff designed to
<<make them suspect "weak, talentless" Peter Pettigrew instead of
<<the real spy. Choosing Peter to be secret keeper must have
<<seemed a stroke of genius: they picked the one person they
<<knew Voldemort would think they couldn't trust.


I (Lost Feyth) now write:

All this talk of bluffing has me thinking. (Never a good thing if you ask 
me. ^_~) What if they used a different spell instead of the Fidelius Charm? 
Perhaps a spell that was much simpler, and much easier to do, but would keep 
them hidden? A bluff in itself, so they could send Voldemort and his 
followers on a wild goose chase looking halfway across the country looking 
for the secret keeper. Why would you make it publicly known about the ways 
that you conseal your allies to your enemy when you know that they are still 
out there, bidding their time? (I'm speaking of Dumbledore.) But then, there 
are about a hundred holes in this, I know. I just thought I'd throw it out 
there.
