I know, but I don't feel it would be fair to DarkCrawler if I cut the time of debating in half simply because I have to travel for my job. What if he comes up with a valid rebuttal on Thursday and I'm not here to retort. Would he simply not be able to use it?
It sucks, but I believe in being fair.
If I don't have net access in my hotel room, I'll give DC the win.
No contest, and no regrets.
I'm a fair man.

No! ..... debate for as long as you can.... if it's only till wednesday then just debate until wednesday..... after that leave it up to the judges/voters
it's unfair to everyone else in the tourney if anyone gets a walkover
if DC comes up with arguments when you can't come on then so be it, people will take into account that you can't respond.... maybe he'll be a gent and agree to only one response after your last post
but don't give anyone a walkover.... there was way too much hassle in the drafts for that
Agreed. DC can handle it how he wants, but walkovers should be frowned upon.
Haven't had the time to give this thread the time it deserves yet, what with the duplicating insanity over in the other match. But knowing I have roughly a week now, I'll make some time for this so that my vote (as a judge this week) is an intelligent one. But great stuff so far with what I've browsed through.

If you have queries then research and highlight on panel evidence. Comics dont revolve around science so while what youre saying might be the case in the real world its far from conclusive in this comic based debate.

That wasnt patronising in the slightest. You just decided to interpret it in such a way due to the high regard you have for your own intelligence. You have a chip on your shoulder. Lose it. 🙄

How was that insulting youre debating? I said for the time being my vote lies with Ill. Scoobs later questioned whether Ill would make it in to the next round and i said based on the strength of his argument he would. How is that in any way insulting your argument?
If i felt you had the stronger argument then id speak up for you in the same way. Its nothing personal, so dont take it as such.

So coming up to this thread and basically say that my debating is weak isn't insulting?
Also...

Did you have any good reason of commenting the strength of my arguments...?

But this isn't the place to discuss common perception of your manner. 🙂
I'll judge this bout using my own criteria, I don't need your two cents. It doesn't buy much.

I never said your debating is weak. Someone has to win here DC. At this moment in time my vote just happens to lie with Ill as i stated. By saying that am i saying your argument is weak? Not at all. Weaker than Ills? At the moment yes.
As for King M's comment, my first post was a vote so that was cool, my second was a response to Scoobs which was also neither a vote or a question. Youre being too sensitive Dc someone has to lose its nothing personal. Ironically your response to my comment hardly abides by KM's post as well.

But I wasn't saying anything about your vote. Your second post had nothing to do with voting or question.
And I aren't being sensetive, just asking why you felt the need to answer Scoob...when he wasn't asking anything.

You interpret it as patronising because of the aforementioned. Nowhere in my post did i put you down, however you took offence to my comments because of how you feel about your own prowess. 🙄
Youre right two cents doesnt buy much but hopefully you'll see it as my contribution towards a much needed sense of humour. 😮

If i realised it would be taken by yourself in the way it did then i wouldnt have said anything. Youre right i didnt need to respond to Scoobs and im sorry you took it the way you did. Seriously, its nothing personal. Who knows by the end of the round i may have switched allegiances. Im gonna stop now because im cluttering the thread. 😮
You took it upon yourself to offer unwanted and superfluous "advice" about how I should judge the fight. "GS knows best."?
None of my queries in this thread are directed towards anybody other than the participants.
Ill has yet to convince me that Agent Zero will glow red hot if someone turns up the thermostat, as the nature of vibranium is to absorb vibratory energy such as, but not limited to, sound and store the energy in it's bonds increasing it's hardness at least according to Marvel Directory - the example that vibranium can be destroyed by explosives is explained by Marvel as the vibranium being unable to absorb the "force of the explosion" rather than an inability to absorb heat (A simple scan or incident where someone in vibranium, BP, Agent Zero etc. is burned etc. will suffice, Ill.). Or for that matter that Vertigo can go full-tilt with her powers affecting people 3000 ft away in a 180 degree arc, something I've never seen Vertigo do.
There are points that seem off to me in DC's posts that I also haven't had time to get around to. And I can do so without your pearls of wisdom, thanx.
