TheSonOfMark: •So we venture into the debate threads unprepared and completely clueless of the topic and what to debate about, then we start developing points to back up our arguments off the top of the dome? If that's the idea then I'm totally down with it. That way the debating process would be undiluted and in its rawest form..no refinery..cool I just hope some tortoise-contestants won't in one way or the other manage to know of the topic beforehand cos that'd be cheating. 1 Like |

kradleber:Topics will be given before hand to ensure adequate preparation of points and ideas. The teams against each other will select topic most befitting to them amongst the ones which they were given. They'll also choose to propose or oppose between them. Ronald4lif,,thesonofmark,,misclasssy what do you think about this? |

jacksparrow1207:see eh! me go alws talk my own if na another moniker open this kind of debate, those endorsing the move will be the first to oppose it and derail the thread. I sit and watch movies going on here on this forum everyday, I never knew NL is interesting o until I became a permanent active member. this move is very interesting and we will enjoy it. I have been expecting such. let's be present to watch the show |

kradleber:That wouldn't happen sir! |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by kradleber: 10:53am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy: Okay.. If the topics are gonna be given beforehand, its fine. it takes nowt from the entire exercise. |

agarawu23: if you read the op first POST you won't make this assertion. Just nomination taking place or are you pissed no one nominated you? Cut the crap dude! What contribution have you given so far judging people. 3 Likes |

We just have people whom their way of thinking is always crooked. SMH |

naijaboiy: I will. Thanks But............ |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by TheSonOfMark(m): 10:58am On May 13, 2015 |
kradleber: For me, I wouldn't be bothered if anyone has prior knowledge of the topics since I'm confident of my grasp of world issues. |

naijaboiy:you didn't get my mention? |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by funlord(m): 11:01am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy:IS this not a form of RIGGING! The contestants feel they posses the necessary intellect to engage in such a discourse which is why they have stepped forward to participate in the 1st place is it not? Or do the lecturers in your school give students the answers to their exams before the students write them? |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by ronald4lif(m): 11:02am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy: I'm not sure if the should be a prior awareness to the topic of debate. It will be better of if it comes off as impulsive and spontaneous. There should be no or little room for much preparations. If any, a day should be the maximum timescale for groundwork. But this is just my opinion. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by naijaboiy: 11:04am On May 13, 2015 |
falconey:its normal to have antagonists in every facets of life. No matter what happens they don't want things to work out. The major thing is that these people just don't want the success of this competition cos I see no reason why someone will just come here and make assertions of what he knows nothing of. What is "padi padi"? Somebody settles down to think of something that everyone will enjoy and some people are already here to spoil it. Ask them to organise something and they will shy away from it. But they can talk and criticise and jab. They are not even contesting neither have they been nominated by anyone to be a Judge. Why the hell should I waste my time in organising something if I know I will cheat already. Does it make sense? Some people just don't think. 5 Likes |

funlord:Your aim is simply to attack. I made a suggestion and mentioned people to air their views. You saw how ronald4lif replied to me. What exactly is your point sir?! 4 Likes |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by funlord(m): 11:08am On May 13, 2015 |
TheSonOfMark:Na so? Ever heard about 5th columnists! Prior knowledge should NOT be an option! |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by kradleber: 11:09am On May 13, 2015 |
TheSonOfMark: I never asked whether you are bothered or not Mister Braggadocio after all you're only participating as a judge. Coming up with points spontaneously every split second on a thread is never gonna be absolutely coherent. There'd be a lot of typos and grammatical shananigans if i may say and etcetera . And no matter how well you think you're a mobile Kemet Library, the points you'd outline on the fly can never be as well articulated as that of the pal who took the pain and time to cross-check,over-edit, and add that touch of finesse to his written.. I prefer Perfectionism and thank goodness naijaboiy has said we'd be given prep time.. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by ronald4lif(m): 11:13am On May 13, 2015 |
Naijaboiy, maybe we should skip this issue of whether to provide the topic to contestant prior to the debate or not for now. Until the voting process of judges and debaters must have been concluded. Those who will be voted and who will participate should have a better stake on how the debatable issues should be addressed. 3 Likes |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by kradleber: 11:14am On May 13, 2015 |
funlord: I think it should be this time around .. My disposition when the thread is created may not be appropriate and adequate enough to engage in a verbal duel, even if I have the better materials and much more valid points, i could still lose sorely to a contestant with weaker points but who's was more settled and in the right frame when the thread was created...so I think we should be giving a lil' time to prepare . I mean, we are not freestyle rapping or are we ? |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by Nobody: 11:15am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy: I think prior notice about the topic to be discussed should be given a day before the debate. Speaking of the topic for the supporting or the opposing team to deliberate on, making it a choice can lead to conflict. So I will suggest you align it straight for who will support or oppose it. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by naijaboiy: 11:17am On May 13, 2015 |
ronald4lif:if I get you right you mean contestants should be given a topic on that same day of the debate and then they should start bringing out their points. Well I went to the education section and checked out the Annual debate which they always hold. It's called Nairaland Inter School Debate. Topics were given to the debaters to go and prepare on and they had a fixed date for the debate. The topics were selected by both the debaters and co-ordinators. And they were further screened by the co-ordinators. Check this thread for clearer understanding. https://www.nairaland.com/1851738/nairaland-interschool-debate-2013-2014 |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by Nobody: 11:18am On May 13, 2015 |
ronald4lif: Exactly. One step @ a time. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by agarawu23(m): 11:19am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy:I know you will never agree with my point but I still insist on my point. its no more news that majority will carry the vote from ppl's nominations. I read the thread from page 0-8 before dropping my opinion. Even you yourself understand what I am saying but I will not talk much cos I don't want to prolong on this issue you once made a statement "my candidate alws win" while campaigning for your candidate( and that's where my point is exactly) you guys are biased on this forum, you know the truth but you will refuse to talk. the poll is all about familiarity/popularity, lot of ppl know that but will remain dumb forever if they are here to worship one moniker or the other. I know its a nomination list, but are we going to cry over a split milk if the vote eventually favours the wrong monikers? OK I don hear. you are assuring us a perfect program whereas you yourself is one of the bias monikers here let's expect the best from you guys. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by ronald4lif(m): 11:19am On May 13, 2015 |
kradleber: Well, maybe there should be ample time for a groundwork after all. It might even make it more interesting as there will more cogent points. And will negate any accusation and counter accusation of leaking the topic to either side of the contesting group prior to the debate. |
Re: The Official Romance Section Debate: (preparation Thread) by funlord(m): 11:22am On May 13, 2015 |
naijaboiy: naijaboiy:Attack? I'm not messi bruv! I think if you had read carefully through my submission you would have realised that my point and rolands points are the same! But let me clarify, PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF THE TOPICS SHOULD BE OFF LIMITS! it gives the debate, its organisers and contestants a lot more credibility in the eyes of the public at the end of the day! |
