Pure speculation, but I wonder if the Goblet wasn't
charm in a way that created a magic 'compulsion' for
all contestants whose names came out. Sort of an
Imperius-like compulsion that forces them to compete.

Tyler responds:
But wouldn't an "Imperius-like compulsion" be
considered dark magic?  I mean,  if the Imperius Curse
is considered dark because it robs the victim of free
will,  why would this charm be any different?
