Having just reread it, I realize that I misremembered the point totals (actually *over*estimated them). Also, since it's set the next day, the actual conference is off-stage, but you pick up the main points of what was said. Most of this author's HP works are connected, so there are various references to things explained elsewhere (especially the one long fic, "Nemo Me Impune Lacessit"), but reading it alone shouldn't be a problem.
