I haven't checked the Guy Compton debate recently but Iast I saw his opponent was having trouble with his internet. So my question is, do we not score that debate because there wasn't a post? Or does Guy win by default? I know you just brought up the alternates but wouldn't that postpone the second round?

Basically it's a win by default, I can understand on a net situation, but as I didn't know of this until after the debate was done and I have judged. Default win stands. Round Two will commence as normal, but I'd suggest asking those who no showed to see if they will debate or not for the next round before throwing it to the Alternates, opinions?
Brah, don't let it bother you none. We're all bound to have those moments in the DL. Nothing you can't come back from, and trust me, remember how much I gushed over NickB to you in PM form? Yeah, he's really good, and I think this is where everyone's finally gonna learn how good he is
Sure there's still 15 points to draw. But there could very well also only be 1.5 points to draw if it goes the same way. Oh well, I respect your judgment mate, and I'll sure as hell do my best to make a comeback.
Sure Nick is good Tenta, it's more the whole thing that I firmly believed I was on-topic, guess I wasn't. Annoys me a bit because I know I could've been on topic if I had known I drafted off it.

Frankly, I thought you did too. I thought it was a great debate. And who knows, there might be people who don't see things the way Phoenix does. What I like is that we have judges with different tastes, different perspectives. Trust me, I'm still planning a rematch with you soon good sir.
Besides, if you think you did bad, wait til you see my score against JMT
I haven't read the whole debate, but don't worry mate, you could very well come out the winner perhaps.
Also I guess you're right about the different ways of judging. Not everybody thinks the same way after all, I obviously proved that.
And I would love to have a rematch with you after this tournament is over, or in the finals.

Well you guys can suck it b/c I'm gonna get a 20 point lead right away... even if it's thanks to a no show.
Grande... Your day's coming, man. It's coming.
And the most viewed thread? Tenta and JMT.
Point..... Tenta Draws!
Yes, it had nothing do with the fact I was going up against a G-Mod, not at all.
Seriously, A good debate by JMT, and getting stuff out of him is like deflowering a choir girl.
Yeah, you guys brought it. I feel I did a shit job on my debate. Disarray's a cool dude to shoot the shit with, so all in all it didn't turn out bad.
Quite frankly, Steve, and no knock on GD, but you did the better job persuading your side. Then again, I'd also say you had the easier side, but I waas at least persuaded.
Then again, I mean jack shit really
I will be doing my three remaining debates tomorrow as it's 1.30am here and I due to start work early, just letting you know that I'm not ignoring you guys yet
My stay off Death Row continues!
In all seriousness, thank you Phoenix, and all the judges really. I know this couldn't get done without y'all. Take all the time you need, sir
At the least... I will take it like I'm giving you the most to think about. Otherwise, you'd just have plopped down a score
Yeah, totally called that. If rep were public, you would see I called Coco shutting down LJL. As soon as Coco fucked up LJL's Monkey Bar argument, I knew it was over
Yeah, LJL had nothing to go on. The one I really wanted to see was Riaku vs. Blue Cardinal 'cause of the topic...then Riaku no-showed
Thought I had it locked up with the backyard wrestling video.

To be fair, I believe he is on holiday, so got to give kudos for debating right up til then.

And still whooped my ass.
I think how it works is really based on the emotion point. Some people love it, some don't. It all depends on how you want to see that point, I always think.
Anyway, David, much love for giving me the tie man. Gotta admit, it's bittersweet. I hate tying, but the fact I tied JMT gave me a boost to how I feel, really. Less thaqn three
