Sorry, I got swamped the last couple of days with work but don't worry, it will be judged ASAP.

Well, there you have it folks.
D-Man, when is the deadline to judge the Loser brackets? I might have to take an extra day off next week depending on how tomorrow goes. So I might have more time on my hands to do some judging.

All deadlines are clearly posted in the threads. I believe their debates end on Wednesday at 2PM (or whenever they finish out their limited amount of posts) and must be judged by next Saturday.
I like how we're spreading out the Winner's bracket and Loser's bracket debates. It gives the judges less to do in a larger span of time. So, I think we'll start the Winner's bracket semi-final debates on Wednesday at 2PM; the same time that the Loser brackets' debates end. This will give the judges time to do their thing while new debates begin.

One of the Loser bracket debates is ready for judging and it's not that long of a read, if you want to get a head-start.

Stop asking me what I'm gonna do!!!
The score of DirtyJose vs Mitch is 12-8, I think.
Looks like I lost. Oh well, it seems like the correct result. I chose the wrong topic and concluded early, which are pretty much two of the biggest mistakes one can make in the debate league. Mistakes like these were bound to happen at some point considering this is my first debater's league. I'm glad both happened in the same debate. Still, I ran KJ close despite having little to work with and that makes me happy even though no one remembers second place.
PS: I would have paid good money to see the look on KJ's face post SavageTaker's judgement.

What's with all the smoking points, eh?

I hope this is not about me supplying ganja to the judges.

Lol, I wasn't smoking anything. I promise
I simply just didn't like any of KJ's points and I thought Rattle did an enough good job to convince me that they weren't strong points. If they had debated someone else that doesn't have the same history as Kurt Angle, then I think it probably would've been a little bit different when it comes to my judging at least.
Actually, nothing.
Matter of fact, I kinda wish you guys would smoke something before judging these debates. Maybe that would numb the pain.

Nice, very nice.
Are the verbal asskickings that hard?
So, what has been the best debate so far this year?
I gotta say, the prelim was a good one.
I'd say the best debate so far has been Dirty Jose versus Mitch Hennessey. It should be interesting to see their rematch in the finals, after DJ wins the Winners Bracket, and MH wins the Loser's Bracket.
Deanerandterry versus Dirty Jose was really good too, along with Killjoy and Rattlesnake.
I'm pretty sure that Habs covered them all. I particularly enjoyed the Killjoy/Rattlesnake debate because I was forced to take a personal interest and it had a unique dynamic. Both parties involved had very interesting debating styles and it got very interesting, very quickly.
And it got all controversial on us.
But, in the end, you rose above shit.
As always. Then I flush it down.
I agree that this was the best one so far, I liked the preliminary too.
Keep up the great work, everyone!
