Reason:

Not sure what the previous debate had to do with it, as much as that one had a much better opening.

Anyway, while it's nice to see topics reused, this type of one lowers the odds of victory each time people see it and learn from it.

Oh and yes, no E was used by con.

Reason:

Objectively TNB won this debate, the letter 'E' never showed up in his arguments, therefore he is the victor.

Reason:

Arguments: pro stopped trying after round 1. Con fulfills his BoP as no “e” is ever used.

Sources: con used sources to prove that he did not use the letter “e”. Pro used previous evidence. Can’t say either side is better.

SG: con proved his case with a massive handicap. Point to Con.

Conduct: pro. Concession is a concession.
