You know what? After all the damn research I put into it, I completely cocked up my Harry Potter novel.
It's not even the new book that's the kicker. It's me re-reading the series and spotting that Albus DOES say that Riddle was Head Boy. How did I miss that? I was being so anal about detail in those days... (being still ill at the time and having nothing else to do- before I even joined the boards).
Total mess up. I'll have to re-write a huge chunk of it. Riddle being pissed at not being Head Boy was an entire plot slice.
Dearie me...
