CoS from the HPB (the book) are fully independant of the HPB (the

vmonte now:

Yes, but gpregana makes an interesting point. Perhaps JKR intended on 
doing a flashback scene in CoS. We still need some background 
information on the founding 4, and the split.  Perhaps she was 
planning on explaining the split, and the how and whys of why SS 
built the Chamber. If she realized that this back story was taking 
too much away from the Harry story, she may have cut it out. 

So, in essence, we might have been told in a flashback that GG was 
the half blood prince, but since she cut this out, the name of the 
book also had to go. 

Maybe she has decided to put this flashback into book 6, but in a 
different way.  

She did add that strange brain attack in OOTP, maybe the brain 
belonged to GG and Ron will have memories of that backstory.
