Debates

[Tadao]

How do you fagholes feel about having 2 person political debates. We can set up pairings from random picks and have challenges as well.

[RaNkeri]

I'm not too aware of US politics, but debating could help me get a better grasp of politics in general, so I'm in.

[Tadao]

Well, we can skip the politics then and just make them debates about anything.

[Esuohlim]

I say we DON'T do debates :eek

[Tadao]

I'll debate you on that. :eek

I'm down for debates.

[Fathom Zero]

If Sacks could draw a picture of Norman Bates throwing gang signs, that'd be just fantastic.

[Colonel Flagg]

It could be amusing. Mock Wars, but with a little (mis)information thrown in.

[Zhukov]

I refused to be on the debate team in high school for political reasons. The same political reasons that managed to keep me out of most extra curricular activities, actually.

I'm interested.

[Blasted Child]

I'm in.
I would prefer if both the topics and the sides were chosen for us, so we would have very limited time to prepare for something that we might not know much about, or actually endorse. This would show your true rethorics skills, and not just how obsessed you are with a certain topic.

[Zhukov]

Yes. I want there to be a trophy, too.

I'm liking this idea more and more. :bestthread

Count me in.

[Fathom Zero]

I can't participate because I get into semantic arguments too often.

[The Leader]

Isn't this what we already do?

On occasion?

Sometimes?

[Tadao]

no

[Dimnos]

I think this is more aimed at one on one as opposed to the battle royale we do now.

[The Leader]

no
Maybe?

[Tadao]

Perhaps not

[Tadao]

So I guess each person participating should throw a subject into the hat of choosing upon sign up. Like,

Tadao - Abortion

[Fathom Zero]

:lol

[Tadao]

Fathom Zero - Gay Rights

[Dimnos]

:lol

[Fathom Zero]

>:

[Pentegarn]

Legalization of marijuana

[TheCoolinator]

I'm in.

HOTPOCKETS!

[Colonel Flagg]

Nuclear disarmament

And donuts

[Pentegarn]

Nuclear disarmament

And donuts

Donuts? That's just silly.

Donuts versus donut holes however is a serious debate

[Zhukov]

Let's get some exciting topics rather than just the same old ones. >:


Like

[Pentegarn]

Like fluoride? (just doing it so Evil Robot won't have to :lol)

[Colonel Flagg]

No.

[Zhukov]

The youth in Asia.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

Debate:

Why did New York State make everyone get new license plates that are awful to look at.

Point in question: (spoilers used because the pics are big)

They are a cross between the most recent ones:

and classic New Yorkhttp://www.pl8s.com/ps-photos-16/16874.jpg

[Fathom Zero]

Some people don't like it, but I think it's a pretty good album. Train of Consequences is a great song.

[Zhukov]

Something regarding allowing more refugees/immigrants into first world countries?

Religion taught in schools?

Xbox 360 vs PS3?

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

XBOX 360 is better because my roommate bought one. I use it therefore it is better. Might need to unban Microshock or only allow him to post in this thread and only regarding why PS3 is better.

[Zhukov]

I think it would be more fitting if he were to come in on the opposing side, and if he could successfully argue that the 360 was better, then he would be unbanned.

[Chojin]

microshock got banned?

[Tadao]

I think it was for like a week. Ages ago.

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I thought he was dust for good.

[Grislygus]

Wasn't Chojin the one who actually banned him :lol real memorable guy, that

[Pentegarn]

microshock got banned?

Wasn't Chojin the one who actually banned him :lol real memorable guy, that

srsly. why are you guys acting like i don't run this

ALLOW ME TO BREAK THE ICE

micro gets a 1-week time out.

MAYBE HE SHOULD CHILL OUT

More smacktard behavior will lead to a 1-month ban and then a permaban. It's up to the event coordinators who to allow to participate and it's pretty obvious that we don't want him.

HE'S BEEN SENT TO THE COOLER

IT WAS ICE TO MEET HIM

:lol

In all seriousness I assumed it was a week but he gave himself an "I'm really really butthurt" vacation

[Zhukov]

I think I should go against Rankeri, since he's always online when I am.

[Sam]

RANKERI AND I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE GREATEST DEBATE THIS BOARD HAD SEEN.

I REFER ALL OF YOU GENTLEMEN TO THE "PISSING IN A PLATE AND FREEZING IT" DEBATE OF 2009 IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD

[RaNkeri]

AMEN

[Esuohlim]

THE GREAT DEBATE: SHRUBFEST OR DRUMMING4BUDDHA >:

[Tadao]

FOR WHAT? PISSING ON OR CRAPPING ON?

[Sam]

HAHA FOR PUTTING MY DICK IN

[Esuohlim]

FUCK
