[edit on 2-9-2004 by Kano]

Well, in my debate I would have been more comfortable as the affirmitive, as thats more my view.........

But hey, luck of the draw, I'll do my best anyway

Good Luck to everyone!!! I look foward to the challenge of debating you all.

I was in that position with all 3 of my previous debates.. thankfully I get to argue for a side I actually agree with this time. I am relieved for once. heh!
You can do it!

Best of luck to everyone.

This is sooo awesome. I'm a fighter now..Excellent. So since I'm fighting "against" my theme, do I have to wait for Shadow to start? Just wondering...

Good luck to everyone. The fun of debates is often having to take a side you may not be comfortable with. Kind of lets you walk a mile or too in someones shoes (hope they have odor eater )

"Physical Education in schools should be compulsory."

Chebob arguing against this has already lost. damn... Thats a good one. It will be interesting what sort of arguments Chebob brings up.

Bah...... I'm itching to get going. If I'm going to make a fool of myself by trying to argue the impossible, I'd like it quick and painless, lol. Only joking, I'm still confident......but impatient, grr

Look at all the fresh mea., er, faces, and I couldn't play. Good luck to all. Glad you joined us, you're hooked now.

Israel is a stabilising force in the Middle East

my jaw dropped when i saw that topic. That's a real good topic. I like what Jamuhn and FredT are cooking.

Where have I seen "The invasion of Iraq by the US-led 'Coalition of the Willing' was justified." before ?

I'll be watching where they take this one. Put 'em up boys!

good luck to everyone first off. i'm new here so i'll sit back and see how this works. when does it start (probably a dumb question).

are these debate tourney posts deleted or are they kept?? They could be of good reference is why im asking.

Holy Crap! What happened to the whole 'announcing' the tournament thing?

I'd have entered if the 'Debate' section of the front page had changed, but its sat still since the last debate opened. Damn.

Good luck to everyone.. Crap..

I was getting a case of Deja Vu myself

But I know kano can't play an oldie with differnet people I applied for the tourny to late. that was my fault. oh well.

EDIT- in fact, i challenge all the new entrants to suprass the number of views that the Terrorism debate had. Then i will know the new crowd has much to offer.

Oh yeah I forgot about the front page, thanks for reminding me Viendin.

I did announce it here, but this time round there was preferential entry for those who missed out in the last tournament. Except for BlackJackal of course, who has to defend his title.

There'll be more tournaments though, so don't despair!
