I will be judge, if this works, because debates do not like restraints.

It's like putting Chaos in between walls and thinking he won't get out.

I guess I'll join, because there are no debate teams at my school.

I'll be a judge. I am pretty neutral when it comes to looking at a debate or argument I am not actually a part of.

Lol Nary you kill me:smiley:, This is my opinion on it: I feel that every bot has a weakness and Also if it follows the Tourney Guidelines(Rules) then it should be fine. Also I notice alot of Exp. builders don't like them and despise them, What I don't get sense you guys are so exp. in building bots can't you guys just build a bot that Captilizes on there Weakness.(Not a personal attack on Exp. builders because I respect all of you and you guys have helped me alot in my showcase:approve:.)

Not to whack you Viper or anything, but this isn't the thread, we're not started yet.

However we will definitely start by crawlers, and yes, you're in the debate.

What form of debate will this take?

How are people going to present their opinions?
Title: THE DEBATING LEAGUE.
Post by: System32 on September 18, 2009, 07:33:56 PM
Well, The judges Will be selected by how much people know them.

For the first debate: Crawlers.

Shall it be 1v1, 2v2 or 3v3?

Also, to be nice to Nary, Urjak is the judge.

The opening statement is for whoever posts first, then rebuttal and the Other opening statement, then rebuttal and rebuttal to the rebuttal until the judge finds a clear winning point.

So, who wants to be in the debate? (STATE FOR OR AGAINST.)

Also, the Judge may create the thread.

Post by: Sage on September 19, 2009, 09:43:42 AM
Damn it guys, I want a 1 vs 1 argument. I know what i can say and how to defend it, but I can't control what you guys say and if you say something wrong the opposing team will capitalize on that and we would probably lose.

1 VS 1

IDK, plan everything out through PM, Hamachi, or IM?
Title: THE DEBATING LEAGUE.
Post by: Urjak on September 19, 2009, 11:15:26 AM
Agree with Sage. A 2v2 would probably be doable, but anything above that is pushing it.

Well people say that if the weapons come overhead it`s a hammer while something coming from underneath is a popup.

Umm.. I don't think there will be enough people interested enough to debate for this. Maybe a debate on the extent of the AAM use would work.

Post by: Naryar on September 20, 2009, 03:44:57 AM
^^i was thinking to BFE as well.

About crawlers... do what you want guys, but still you can bet i'll be PISSSSED if one of my true popups loses to some gay crawler in a DSL tournament in an enclosed arena.
Title: THE DEBATING LEAGUE.
Post by: JoeBlo on September 20, 2009, 04:06:41 AM
I think it should become a general rule like "DSL is always realistic unless a tournament specify's otherwise"...

Crawlers should become outlawed in DSL unless a tournament specifically allows them

as for stock its really an anything goes version of RA2 so nothing can really be done to stop them

I'm not really interested in being a judge anymore so you can give it to somebody else.
