Pretty much. 👆
Originally posted by PhilosophiaI'll extend the martians vs kryptonians debate to anybody willing to do it, even without any kind of 'winner has to leave' stipulations.
I'll even reverse the position, and argue for martians, lol.
I'm relatively free next week, that's why I'm asking.
The above actually sounds like fun. With no "Get out of Dodge" stips, if I get to rep Superman and the Kryptonians, and you J'onn and the Martians, my only additions would be:
1) Burning Martians disallowed.
2) I get Delta1938, Rao Kal-el, Abhilegend, and Digi as judges.
Delta1938, at the very least, but the more the merrier.
You can have Martian Mind and Pr on the judging panel, if you wish.
In the event of a deadlock, Delta or yourself declares the winner.
Haha, I love how you're afraid to back martians against the kryptonians, but are willing to go the other way AND have a panel of judges comprised almost solely of Superman fans.
You know the best part?
I agree even under these stipulations. I always have fun arguing against what I believe.
Digi, Pr, Abhi, Rao, Delta, Martian Mind and Darksaint as judges?
Cool.
Opening post + 5 posts each?
The battlezone ending by the weekend? [Saturday/Sunday]
Would that be ok?
It would be better if at least in these conditions you'd have the guts to take the self-imposed ban, but I'm asking too much. You're not in agreement with this, no?

^^^Hey, just giving you what you obviously want, attention.
You initiated this exchange. 😆But enough about me, you, and your mom. Back on topic. 🙂
nah I just made a comment on the real reason you wouldn't do it. I don't crave attention like you do. But keep your spirits up Riv!! I mean, you can manage to keep that much up, right?

Replying to Phil here, as I can't reply to his PM.I am totally down to judge. This is such a bizarre situation, that there is no way I could possibly refuse.

When you type in my username to send the PM, just put Philosophia without the special character in my name, and it will work.
I'll change my avatar to J'onn soon, just for this occasion, lol.

I've never done a battle zone before. But I know enough about debate to realize that actual right and wrong doesn't always have much to do with who "wins" or "loses". It wouldn't make any sense to attach any conditions of true weight to my first. But I want to see what one is like, and, frankly, wanted to have a bit of fun with at least one of the people on the panel.

Yeah. You initiated it.
And i said your mother had my comeback on her chin.
Glad we're on the same page.As i dont need a warning, you know, for saying your mother has my comeback on her chin, imma peace out.
This was a MOST enjoyable thread.
🙂
I said I didn't want attention. I'm not you, requiring it. But keep those spirits up. 👆

Yep, I see what you did there.
Originally posted by bluewaterriderIt's like any other debate, but with limited amount of posts so that it doesn't degenerate into "I'll have the last word, just because".

So we have:
1). Average kryptonian vs average martian, who is more powerful. No Burning Martians.
2). Opening post + 5 other posts.
3). Posts can be made anytime until the end of the week
4). The judges pending confirmation. I've PMed the judges. We have Delta and Martian_Mind up until now.
Upfront so that there won't be any discussion about this - each individual post counts as 1 overall post. So if you have a reply that has 2 posts, it takes 2 of the overall, and you have 3 left.
@bwr
Just in case there's no confusion - we'll be debating Pre-Flashpoint, since we can't address both New 52 and the previous one coherently, given that they're separate in their continuities and canon [for now]
If you have another suggestion, be free to say so.

I'll do it.
That's 3 judges confirmed: Delta, Martian_Mind and Darksaint.
4 to go.
