Branwen always one to be the devils advocate decided to included an opposing view, " There are probably some people from durmstrang that would not like the tournament held at their school. The first reason is that holding it at your school may make it possible for someone to discover your exact location. Also, Durmstrang seems like a school that is very proud of their athletics and warrior skills. It always "appears" that everyone from that school is very proficient, but if someone from the outside comes in and sees everyones skills, like first years or new transfer students, then that may make them look less than perfect. Finally, it is thought that they may teach dark arts and it would be wise to not let every one know exactly how much they actually do teach."
