I quickly went through some of today's discussion and will do more 
later after the house is quiet again but I did find a snippet from 
Maria that needs to be rectified a tad <snip>.  In the discussion around  Lupin's evilness you said dementors 
could have been used to Sirius' smell and may have been attracted to 
it during the Quidditch match. May I point out that Sirius later 
explains that Dementors don't see, they can only feel human emotions 
and therefore could not hurt his soul as much when taking a dog shape 
inside Azk.  

Me:

Welcome, Hedwigpotter! 

Actually, Sirius says in PoA: "They could tell that my feelings were less -- less human, less complex when I was a dog..." That IMO means that the dementors could feel his emotions, just not as well as when he was in human form, and could have felt it at the Quidditch match. So I think my argument stands, while I also think that the dementors were really driven to the game by the fans' emotions and not by Sirius.
