Quidditch by the numbers

Well, today's Quidditch game certainly is demonstrating that forecasting strictly by the numbers is insufficient to the sport. Who could have predicted that it would be such a hard-fought contest already? Not I, certainly. There must be factors still to be discovered.

At least it will provide a wealth of data for further consideration. Oh, he's scored again. Well played, Cedric! Well played!

Note to self: Add "consideration of stressful aspects of having scouts among the onlookers." Wonder if it increases along logarithmic scale as term progresses? Cross-reference with timing of OWLs and NEWTs. Also parental attendance, when applicable?
