Rules:
no forfeits.
no semantics.
Round 1
Forfeited
From my point of view, "I will lose this debate" refers to Con and not pro.
Since pro has violated his own rules, he loses, therefore "I (Con) will lose the debate" is disproved.
Good game.
Round 2
lets take a look at the definition of I "the one who is speaking or writing" In fact I was the one who wrote the resolution NOT my opponent
Since pro has violated his own rules, he loses,
Yes I do lose
From pro's point of view, he has to argue that he's going to lose the debate. But from my point of view, it's whether Con will lose the debate. Therefore, there is no contradiction, and I win the debate.
if i do win this debate then i lose this debate
Oops. Sorry guys. I went to vote on this debate, but I do not yet qualify to vote. I did read the Voting Policy, but forgot the restriction on new members. I will try to qualify in the next 6 days to enter a vote.
Wow, this is "Show, don't tell" taken to the extreme.
How is it possible for this debate to have no semantics when there is no real "content" to feed the topic statement with except the topic statement itself?
