I'll wait to see what others want to do in terms of selecting opponents and wagering points. Either way it sounds like a blast though.
Excellent!

Holiday Skirmish Sign-Ups
As has been intimated, we are going to try and revive the Holiday Skirmish idea that can be seen halfway down this page.
There were only three that year but I think we can do a few more this year. It wouldn't be a tournament but rather a single round of Challenge Matches that would coincide with each other as far as the start date, which is tentatively scheduled for December 12th (the date may be amended should there be an overwhelming consensus to).
These debates are intended to be light hearted in nature and are really just an excercise in the spirit of the holiday. I had a freaking blast debating The Vagabond a few years ago so I definitely think many here would enjoy the more toned down nature.
That said, this announcement is intended to gauge the interest. I will keep a list that I will add to for those who express interest. As well, it is possible for those of you who so desire to choose your own opponent or we can just do a random pairing.
One more thing for consideration: Depending on what you guys think, we can eliminate the ranking points wager for the Holiday Skirmnishes or keep them. I leave this decision to the majority vote.
Remember...regardless of our competitive spirits, the Holiday Skirmishes are supposed to be fun!!

Wait what?
Intrepid debating?
Me thinks someone's looking to get their trophy back, probably feels naked without it.
