Fangirl/Digi:

First of all, let me applause the effort Digimark put into his audio write-up, I found it alot easier than having the struggle through a massive essay and it was alot easier to read.

First and foremost, I think Digi pretty much was prepared for every attack Fangirl was going to launch at him, his use of Machine Man pretty much owned any chance you had of using anti-gravity, the telepathy (which was never actually properly countered), well done.

I think for a first outing, you had a very good showing Fangirl, however I think one area in which you could improve would be in that you have to treat the debate like the judges have never read comics before; you referenced other comics wherein things happened that would support your case, however it's not the judges job to chase down these comics and read them, it's your job to provide the judges with the necessary information.

I think both of you can do well in the coming matches, however I feel I must give my vote to:

DIGIMARK

Well done to both of you.

This was a good match. I understand that Fangirl was in the hospital and debating at an obvious disadvantage. You had the tools to achieve victory in this match, but in my opinion you just didn't put it together. You seemed primarily focused on your defenses and didn't just do the obvious (well, seemingly obvious to me, at least) to achieve victory.

Digi presented a well structured, well substantiated plan and there was little left to speculate upon (save the Machine Man being able to nullify Powerhouse's abilities, which I didn't believe). By and large, Fangirl's plan was built on a lot of speculation (particularly in regards to the feats of Powerhouse and his siblings), and she spent to much time on inconsequential points.

Judge's Vote: Digi

Sorry Fangirl. You had the tools, you just didn't put them together properly.

It's kind of pointless at this point though...

Nah. People really thought I was stretching when I said the kids all copy each other's feats and all have had each others powers. I can't have yall thinking I was wrong. Tee hee. You know I"m not in this to win it. Or even come close right. 😕

so what are you in it for?

for the record, they did exchange power's.

alex aka gee had the power to effect gravity, katie aka energizer had the power to shoot out energy spheres from her torso area that had destructive capabilities, (i forget his real name off hand) aka mass master had the power to expand his atomic structure into a fine mist and also the ability to compact his atoms reducing him to the size of a doll but retaining his original mass, and lastly (i forget her real name too) aka lightspeed, she had the ability to fly at around the speed of sound leaving a trail of light in a rainbow
fashion.

then when they swapped, gee gained katie's powers and became destroyer, katie got mass master's power and was named molecula, lightspeed gained gee's gravity power, and mass master lightspeed's.

in a future timeline in mojoverse, there was a character named powerpax that was composed of all the children's powers and she fought along side the x-men to defeat mojo there.

Well heck. Post them next match, because you still have PP on your team. Posting them now won't help, and will only give your opponent more of a heads-up. I realize you're here to have fun, but it's also evident that winning is fun. So little things like that will get your point across without sacrificing a strategic advantage by posting them now. The judges are different next round too, so you'll just be re-posting them anyway.

In any case, good match and better luck as the tourney continues. Thanks to the judges.
