I'd actually be a little wary of taking the side on that one honestly. Looking at the long history of terribly bad luck and mismanagement of fund associated with taking on that amount of money, I'd say you'd have an easier time debating the con.

One only becomes a big dog when one has dethroned a big dog.

After careful thought and consideration I still think getting a million dollars and blowing it would be good!!!!

I can't argue with you at all on that point my friend. Even if it turned out badly, it would still be fun while it lasted!

Title Bout: semporfortis vs intrepid: Illusory Geneva Conventions

The topic for this debate is "Human rights are a mere myth reinforced by those who hold power."

Holy cow! It's not everyday one gets to witness a title bout from the front row. This ought to be interesting!

Hello, everyone! I've had a few days to cool my heels since my first debate. Does anyone want to dance?

Alright, I´ll take the next dance. But I´d like us to choose a topic deliberately. Whats something you´d like to debate...

reply to post by Skyfloating

I would be honored to debate you, Skyfloating.

As for a topic...

How about the use of satire to influence opinion?

A few random ideas (pick what you like best)

Skyfloating will be arguing the pro position
maria_stardust will be arguing the con position.

My apologies, Ladies and Gentlemen.

The Challenge Match is not a title bout as the challenger to the title must be higher ranked than the current Champion. Currently they have the same ranking...

This would be a time where I miss having The Vagabond around...

And for those who are wondering about the Rankings update, it is something that The Vagabond needs to do so that we can insure that noone gets missed....

I have a funny feeling that my goose is about to be cooked.

But that's alright. Just don't trample my toes with those clodhoppers of yours!

reply to post by maria_stardust


I hope you chose something you feel you can win.

Im going to send this one off to the Forum-Mods. Good Luck maria_stardust. Nothing said during the debate is personal and every sign of ill-intent is for debate purposes only.

reply to post by Skyfloating


Not to worry, I'm pretty sure I can stand on my own two feet. There's nothing like a little smack fest during debate to liven things up!

Just a quick heads up, though, my brother is getting married next weekend and I will be completely out of pocket July 25-27. So we can either set it up quickly and try to finish before then, or perhaps start on 7/28. Either way is fine by me.

I'm looking forward to sparring with you!

reply to post by maria_stardust


We´ll set it up these days and take a break 25-27 or others if necessary. No rush.

And now in my usual tactic: "I know I dont stand a chance winning this side, but I look forward to the debate anyway".

SO I wanted to announce that Gaotu679 And I will be engaging in a very interesting debate, regarding who has benefitted most from our mutually shared border, U.S. or Canada? I think this is going to get fun real quick, and encourage all of you to star and flag and follow this debate when it starts tomorrow! Thanks for the opportunity Gao, looking forward to it... Jason

Wow, I didn't even know this place existed!

This seems to be a good way for me to get to know everyones style a little better....... so I can take them down of course!


Can't wait to see some of the upcoming debates.
