larride: What's this ish I'm hearing about there's no group stage after elimination, what happened to qualifiers? Let's take the first debate as the qualifiers to get those who were seeded and those who were not whereby we arrive by this grouping stuff. If we are not going to tackle each other in the group then the group should be abolished and should be term knock-out stage instead of group. A new draw will have to be done for that to be effective. You don't play one match in a group and expect to qualify. Its either we abide with grouping or knock-out stage. Peace.

im supporting u partially 4 d first time.
the initial method put forward by d coordinators should be practised but it wont honour it as group stage because u dont play just 1 match in group stage(but we can overlook that because of resumption)sha) so it can be a 1st leg nd 2nd leg stuff because each uni will hav the chance of opposing or supporting in the 1st and 2nd leg respectively,so no1 will attribute failure to the fact that he wasnt allowed to support or oppose(but both legs shuld hav diffrent topics o) either of this method us appropriate.
d issue of total intragroup battle is too long nd speaking in soccer,il say 'u dont play 3 matches in group stage.

Rexsul: finestboi u said d group stage wil b done wit withn ds month n dat means "RUSH"....Ds wil make d debate borin n might make pple lose interest. Moreova i need enough time 2 Prepare 4 Futaa oooo cos i want 2 beat dem Black nd Blue there4 i say NO 2 dat suggestion....tnx

u rep futminna?

Epaul: [color=blue]i'm strongly against dis idea in situ. Firstly, if we ve to group schools at this stage of d competition then we would be negating the very methodology of football competition which this debate purportedly claims to be employing n abiding by. This grouping idea should ve been employed in the first round and not now. If this grouping idea is anything to go by sir, then we ar ridiculously saying ''after knockout stage, then group stage''..dis is an aberration of d rules of football on which this competition was built.

im sori i had to cut ur post short, the excess word delays my typing.
terming the debate system as knockout before group stage is ridiculous,the fact that runner ups were included nullified that.
u are ryt by pointn out that d group stage system should hv bn Incorporated initially but things are still cool with the way they are.no home nd away stuff involved.
besides if 20 unis were grouped into five groups and 10 unis emerged as winners,if the 10 winners battle leading to d emergence of five winners,five losers,how will those five winners be matched up.
nd u hav no freaking right to tag any 1's idea as absurd as long as it still remains an idea,evry1 is entitled to his opinion nd has evry prerogative to submit it.dat's y it's called democracy!!!

smithsammy: am putting in for him. So, where do we start from?

thank God u signified, already sent u a mail

[quote author=ojoawo]While I support the idea of the football match type fixtures, I do not support the idea of the football points type.

Example if UAZ beats UBC 23points - 5points and YTR beats TYR 78points to 75points... That system will favour UAZ which shouldn't be.

Damex333: as much as i would love it. I would like to give out the conditions include: d duration of d debate will extend(might be not be conviniences 4 d debaters and judges) skul will be resuming soon, so time of debates will be adjusted.
I am indifference to it

ture talk .if that method is adopted,will d winners be ranked according to points or numba of times they won?

larride:

It won't be fair to just win/lose and qualify or be eliminated, the reason why we are grouped is for us to tackle each other and the best two to qualify, if that idea isn't going to work, then it shouldn't be in group since its going to be a single debate. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

d idea is just acceptable for consideration.
the initial method can b compared to that adopted in football league,it also makes sense except that no home and away involed

bizmania: Jesus! Come! What am I seeing? My own school was even drawn to face OAU.... I haven't seen anything and was complaining.... @FYNESTBOI pls consider what @LARRIDE was saying ooo. Pls... Ha! Pls ooo.. Supporters oya come and support this motion ooo pls! I AM SYLVA! Where art thou? Nah two of us dey battle this together ooooo....

looolllllssssssssss,nw u'r supporting d idea cos of oau?
oau ft intimidate oo

Fynestboi: [size=20pt] IF YOU SUPPORT THIS IDEA PLEASE SIGNIFY...[/size]

the idea is good in the sense that it gives each team more chances to qualify bt it's kinda longgggggg......i partially support the home and away(1st and 2nd leg) idea,including that in the 2nd leg, our status will change. we will oppose another topic instead of supporting like we dd in d first leg
but if it's bssed on protocols,no wahala..

aysuccess99:
why do u think so bro....and hope they ain't meeting OBA AWON UNI(O.A.U) and by the way, which school is competiting with O.A.U...?

i drew a table while the unis were being grouped.oau should b cmpetn against uniben

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.............
Kudos to u guys for a match well drawn..

Elliotwiz1: Your constitution is too flexible..Firstly you guys said qualification would be based on points ranking..Now you guys are saying only winners of various rounds would qualify even if their points are lesser than the losers of other rounds..You should stick to a particular constitution.

hy man
view this thing like a football league (champions league).u get to round sixteen because of ur winnings not because of the total goals.nd besides the runner ups dat dd exceedingly well are still in the debate.

Oluwatola5: Oga mi, i am gentle ooo, i am no boss here, besides, you are the boss.

Gentle?.....u are just tooooooooo modest.

aysuccess99:
u are very funny o......hmmn,*laughs* bt i tot u were crious abt it ni o, i na new dat u were jst only joking....and by the way am going to take 3 days fasting and prayer so that i won't meet guys like u(futa), oluwatola(o.a.u), snoopy and damosky(unilag), pseudonomer(funaab), mhyke(a.b.u), epaul(delsu, and even i believe we won't meet in d nxt stage) cos i fear u guys with d way u are loading ur missiles, armour tank and AK-47....1love sir.

now im knowing those i should avoid their path.u'r number 1

Oluwatola5: Although i am not Mhyke oo, but i just want to answer this on his behalf, he is an OAU student, the school where brain meet brains. And also, i must commend Mhyke for a job well done, a debate well delivered and the bravery he put into his debate, you got my spirit high and also i was smiling while going though your debate, infact, i doff my fedora!!!!!

smithsammy: i must commend mhyke for taking the adacious step to represent ABUZARIA and i also congratulate him for doing exceptionally well. pls which sch are u @mhyke?

thanks man
just gained admission into oau.

maclatunji:

I just was not convinced with your reasons to allow autocratic rule in place of democracy.

By the way, Mhyke would have received the highest score from me except that he kept on writing abbreviations and I had to penalise that.

ABU really got to the heart of the matter with their ASUU example and punctured UNIOSUN's "rule of law" under military government argument by letting us know that the military do not work with the constitution.

i apologise 4 goin against the abbreviating rule.im havin a low batr3 so i hv to b very fast as i culd
