And remember.....

I will be watching..

Semper

So will we. I assume you've noticed that gauntlet lying at your feet.

Keep in your mind the same thing that's on mine right now: If you lose, everyone will smell blood in the water and the dream will be over.

Wow things certainly got shaken up while i was away today, sorry to hear about Semper and Nyk although the Memoryshock and Semper championship bout is going to be great to watch

I'm happy with my topic and good luck to The Borg the rematch is on as soon as my the thread is posted i will begin.

Teams 3 and 4 can get it on just as soon as Chissler recieves my U2Us and posts the threads.

Oh man!!!!!!

If I lose the sharks will descend on me....

Maybe MS will have mercy on me....

Hey Argos,

Which side do ya want on this one? I'd prefer the Pro Side, if at all possible, but I'm comfortable on either.

Being biased on something like this makes debating it kinda hard, but that's the fun in the debate. I love a good challenge. So, with that in mind, I'll let ya decide what side ya want. Lemme know, ok?

Good Luck, and Happy Hunting,
TheBorg

Accuse him of Christmas carolling. He hates it when you do that. lol

Argos buddy, I'll pull the con end. I have the privilege to be living in the very country that this junk is going on in, so I can debate either side of it quite well.

Hold on to your pants, cause this one's gonna be fun!!

There were a couple of topics that I REALLY REALLY wanted, as long as i could get the side that I wanted (file sharing and illegal immigration) but that's exactly why I decided on how I was going to dole out topics BEFORE I went through the suggested topics to make selections. Maybe I'll do a challenge match on file sharing sometime so I can get the side I want.

Thanks Chissler

To GAOTU & the Schedule-Committee

Just stopping by to respond to your opening, but I see you havent opened our debate yet. As Im on travels and most Internet Cafes are closed over Christmas, Ill try to get back on by Wednesday, for sure by Thursday. I thank the Vagabond for patience over the Holidays.

Speaking of delays, I'm going to be a tad late on a response myself in my debate with Argos. I've already got a plan in mind, but I've gotta sit down and hammer out the specs of the posts, and the order they'll go in. I've been working a boatload this week, and I gotta work in a while, so it'll prolly be sometime on late Tuesday before I get it finished.

Just letting everyone know,

TheBorg

Merry Christmas everyone, and don't let the schedule trouble you over the holiday. I'd hate to have one of you snap on an in-law because of the added pressure of the debates.

I may or may not be around tomorrow, or, later today rather. Experience says that I'll be end up spending a lot more time than I want to on games that I'm no good at and conversations I don't want to have.

Then there's the post-holiday drinking with all the other guys from the kiddy table, and that eats up a lot of my holiday evenings (the oldest of us is 28, the youngest is 21, but we're still at the kiddy table because everytime a seat opens up at the grownup table, one of my aunts remarries).

A couple of years ago, all of my aunts were married, and my grandpa died. This made my uncle Frank the only man at the "grownup table" who had been in the family for over a year. So he abdicated the throne and came to the kiddy table. That left two seats open at the "grownup table".

You know how we handled that? I kid you not, I can't make this up, my brother got married and my cousin started bringing his girlfriend, and those girls took a free pass to the grownup table their first time out, and left their men at the kiddy table. I don't think that was the plan, but that's what happened, may god strike me dead.

So to make a long story short, there will be a lot of absurdity and whiskey and pleasantries standing between me and my ATS addiction tomorrow.

Merry Christmas!

Just popping in for a second to apologize for not having my response up when I had hoped. I'm out of town for a few more days, but will be back on Friday. So I'd expect to have my first response up sometime that evening.

Hope you all have a happy and safe holiday season.

No worries chissler. Maybe in the spirit of the seasons we debate will imbibing? Mind you I do that all the time.
