Further, Con'a R1 argument, even though ignored by Pro in R2, leaving Con without necessity to offer further argument in R2, gave an excellent argument in R1 if Hume's Guillotine to demonstrate that morality is subjective, thus denying the resolution with good argument by supporting evidence, Thus, Con offered a valid source for his argument, the argument was fully legible, and his conduct toward the opponent was respectful. Thus, all for categories of points awarded to Con by merit and not just by forfeit.

Cons argument was very well stated from defining the terms in Pro’s absence, laying out the groundwork and tying it together.

Reason:

PRO had a full forfeit. CON made an argument and used sources.

I am not saying that CON did make any grammar mistakes, just that the way one writes in a debate is not 100% perfect grammar even in an ideal situation.
For example: "It would also be a fallacy to conclude that because it is intuitive or comfortable that is untrue." lacking "it" due to debate-rhetoric, not any mistake.

PRO did not post an argument, and thus could not make any grammar mistakes. LOL.
