This debate is evidence that we really don't have to look far to see godfatherism in action. grin

Judge Jarus takes his pen and pad, sets his glasses, a glass of water, takes a seat on the high table, waiting for the organizer to kick-start the programme and the debaters to file out. cheesy

Cuddlemii: THREAD RE-OPENED!!!!

You would be updated with the modalities today.
I am waiting on the project manager, Chrisbenogor and Judge, Oam4j to endorse and put finishing touches to it.

Check out the list of Judges on the first post. The topic of discussion has been re-written for clarity as well.

Thanks!

nigerians and their uncanny ability to tie themselves up in tortuous knots.
i won't be surprised if this debate kicks off in december at this rate, it would
drag and drag until the interested partys lose the appetite! the use of swear
words should not be prohibited!

@bolded, then don't call it a debate, just call it a brawl.

debosky: I don't see how you can have a good debate with so many participants at the same time - are you planning to ask a question and get all the debaters to respond one after the other?

I'd like to participate but would like to better understand what is proposed and what the ground rules are - e.g. are you allowed to use words like cretin and mooron? cheesy cheesy

How long are the posts allowed to be? It would be good to set a limit, else the more verbose debaters will write mind boggling epistles that no one will be bothered to read. Is quoting permitted on rebuttal?

Sorry for the jumbled up response and for repeating issues others may have already mentioned.

Thank you for responding.
The most important thing is the rules of engagement! That would be communicated today!
We are working around it to perfect it before representing it on here, bear with us.

I thought cuddlemii is the organizer,why is she debating with tunji? grin
Re: Nairaland's Literary & Debating Day - You Are Cordially Invited! by freecocoa(f): 2:08pm On Jul 19, 2012
maclatunji:

She made a mistake and doesn't want to acknowledge it! Freecocoa, you should tell her more about me. tongue grin
For your mind o.tongue

Anyways let's not let whatever must have happened spoil the whole thing,I'm sure its just a little misunderstanding that shouldn't be allowed to get outta hand.

Since you are no longer interested just let it go and let us all relax and enjoy the show when the time comes,although at this rate and comments from the debaters,its probably gonna take longer than anticipated to hold.
