I really wish the big guys would do this. Sam, Coco, X, Shocky, Sly, KB, Tastycles, Gelgarin, and whoever else I forgot to mention.

You and me both.
No dipshit. What got worked out was that punctuality points are not as big a deal as I thought them to be. As Miko told me punctuality points are mosstly split until and unless you fail to respond within the time limit. Making quicker posts does not matter too much. As such the punctuality point is not something to lose sleep over.
First off, I'm not basing the tournament around your schedule. Secondly, I announced the debates' time frames weeks ago, so this should be no surprise.
Lastly, that's why I'm giving all first-round debates a four day deadline. It gives you all one day for every required post, plus a day (if you need that long to complete everything.)
To beat anyone in a debate you first need to understand the topic at hand. So far you have not made a great start.
Ba-Bomb, gotta say, you're coming out mightily big-headed.
You're not in the debate league, asshole. Accept this fate.
To be fair even though Talon probably can't debate his way out of a wet paper bag, replacing him with Ba-Bomb would be like replacing the wet paper bag with a damp paper bag which sits on the top of a river, becoming submerged by the water, cause as we learnt during the Mod Election campaign, he just posts a lot and very rarely makes a logical, decisive point.
Yeah, as I said, D-Man put you in check which he did. Go back and look at the post. Here's what he said.
And I had said the only thing that got worked out was you, which the quote above heavily suggests. Doesn't look like there was much negotiation going on there or anything so what exactly got "Worked Out" again??? I read the conversation dink. You were all "oh no different time zones, how am I going to respond, I'm going to lose points" and you got a hand across your face telling you to chill out, you have plenty of time to respond. Am I missing anything here?
You might want to take your own advice, you didn't even know what to make of the schedule and it had to be spelled out for you. What are you going to do when someone makes a very clever argument against you? You should surrender your spot to me, or put your money where your mouth is and take me on since you know so much about what it takes to beat anyone in a debate. I'm not threat right? So what is the harm?
SShhhhhhh, that's part of the strategy,
You've got to let people's ego's get the best of them, then watch them implode when you dominate them.
Awwww how cute, he thinks he's being clever. Again, I'll tell you the same as I told Rattlesnake, put your money where your mouth is and take me on in a debate for your spot. If you are any good you should be able to beat me easily right?
Well that wasn't very nice . Are you in the tournament? Why don't you put your spot up against me? After all, with your keen insight to my so called inability, it should be a walk in the park right? If I just post a lot and very rarely make a logical or decisive point, what do you have to lose?
Open challenge stands. Your spot in the tournament for a chance to humiliate and shut me down. You know you want to.

I find it amusing Ba-Bomb wants to be in this thing far more than I do.
He is obviously not prepared. He had plenty of opportunity to sign up. He is like the guy that shows up to the party after all the beer is gone and complains.
No one is putting their spot up against you so just shut the fuck up.
You're coming off as a whiny child who didn't get invited to the party.
Yeah, all the conversations that took place after that post you quoted including the ones with D-Man wherein he said that time zones were a bit of a problem but there was no real way to solve it. Not to mention the conversations with Miko and CH David which reassured me that time zones were nothing to worry about. It could even work out in my favour.
So, I was right. You did not read anything past one post wherein you sensed an opportunity to get in. Just like the elections. Proving yourself an idiot with every step.
You, on the other hand, are just an annoying twat. It has been clearly mentioned in the title of this thread that you cannot sign up for this anymore. This is just a game, dude, and yet you are acting as if your life depended on winning this league. Is making a name on this forum that important to you? Because it sure as hell is coming off that way.
You are coming across as the biggest try hard on the forum apart from being annoying and an egomaniac. There are many more who wanted to sign up but just missed the date but they are not making a hue and cry about it. They are patiently going to wait for their turn next year and so should you.

Ba-Bomb isn't complaining by any means. He is just upset that he didn't notice a chance to sign up for a debate and know he is pestering everyone willing to give him any attention.
There is no lost ground for you to cover. You missed out, no one is going to debate you for their spot or give you their spot in general. If they didn't have some desire to be in this thing they wouldn't have signed up in the first place.
There really is nothing you can do but wait til next year
Actually I DIDN'T have much opportunity to sign up. Unlike a lot of folks here I was heavily entrenched in something that is obvious foreign to many of you called "WORK" so I could pay what you call "BILLS" because I have something else few of you seem to know about "RESPONSIBILITY". Unfortunately in that time the sign up came and went, and at the same time I was "downsized" along with many others. So now I have plenty of time for this, I am raring to go, and I thought "Why not try to see if you can still get in?" Don't see what the big deal is. And don't worry about me being prepared, as soon as debate time hits I am ready to go.

Bomb, no one is annoyed at you for making challenges. Frankly, you are in no position to make a challenge because we are in and you are not and no one rates you too highly either to be honest. You are just too stupid to understand that. People are annoyed at you for being stubborn and annoying. The administrators of the league, the judges and the participants have told you repeatedly that THERE IS NO WAY in which you can participate and yet you keep trying as if your life depended on it.
If it did not mean as much to you, you would have stopped by now. But clearly, as you have posted here before, you are obsessed with proving how good you are around here. Everybody, not just a few gripers as you call them, had an issue with you during the elections and it is the same here.
And as for you calling me out on having queries about the punctuality point, lot's of people have had queries regarding how the league will work. That is what the Ask a Question thread in the debater's league sub forum about. The rules and regulations thread there had mentioned that posters will be judged on punctuality but there was no talk about how the judging would take place. I also thought that the way the punctuality point was awarded in the preliminary debate, it would put me at a disadvantage due to my time zone being 12 hours apart. So I had a doubt and the judges and admins cleared it out for me in the posts after the ones you quoted.
You have only used a part of the conversation to serve your own purpose. I'm guessing that is how you debate and let me warn you if you plan on participating next year that this would be a dangerous strategy.
Your situation is not comparable to mine. It has been clearly mentioned that you cannot sign up anymore and yet you keep trying hoping that people will give in to your persistence( read annoyance). I had a query and once that got answered, I moved on. You haven't because you cannot.
You have also idiotically assumed that the people who have signed up do not work or undertake any sort of responsibility. Why Bomb? Do you know who every one of us are? Do you stalk us? That makes you the guy with no life, no?
You do not fucking get it do you?
NO ONE IS GIVING YOU THEIR FUCKING SPOT.
Blah, blah, blah... bullshit, bullshit bullshit... wah, wah, wah...
