This is only a ploy to lure me into a false sense of having already won.

Are you suggesting that Wukky is leading you to believe that "Things are going to be alright"?

So what might we debate about later on?

reply to post by Skyfloating


Hmm how about something fairly abstract and open to interpretation? Might be an interesting mental exercise to try and create novel justifications for our positions.

" Sunlight is redundant "

or

" Colonise or Perish "

Something along those lines...either of those take your fancy?

I´ll give those two some thought and (in fairness to what-you-kno) respond after the current debate.

reply to post by Skyfloating


Excellent. Feel free to make up one of your own if you prefer, those two were just examples off the top of my head. Looking forward to the matchup

Fair warning guys, I'm going to lock up this thread tomorrow since the tournament is over. We can create a new commentary thread if desired.

What we need is a Debaters Lounge...

A thread where we can all hang out...

Be careful what you wish for:

I'm bringing my own...

If a commentary thread were authored in the debate forum, only fighters would be able to respond. Adding another forum causes extra server load, so I don't see that happening. (But submit a suggestion if one desires) However a simple commentary thread in the debate forum would be what you're looking for. Only fighters can contribute.. but it would be public for all to see.

And fighter commentary should be an elitist deal...as far as contribution is concerned.

If you want to talk...get a fighter tag and give us a reason to listen...

That's actually what I was talking about... Sorry I wasn't clear... MemoryShock has me all befuddled in the debate..

Just a nice thread where we as debaters, can gather and have fun, discuss past debates, future debate titles and generally irritate each other...

As only "Fighters" would be allowed to post, I see it as serving a two fold function.

1. A place for us specifically as fighters.
2. Attractive to other "nonfighter" members and an incentive to become active in the debates.
