Look, Let's face it: Sonic the Hedgehog as a series has grown tired and stale and has been on a nosediving spiral since Sonic '06 and has just gotten worse since (official series-wise, Fangames don't count and should never count! ); Hell, Even the fandom has been proven to harbor cringy manbabies like Chris-Chan and many others like him; Not to mention the fact that every website they decide to inhabit, Be it a forum, 4chan, Art website, Twitter, Facebook, You name it, They always, Without fail, Immediately act hostile towards other fandoms and aggressively harass folks from other fandoms and even send them death threats and slurs and nothing but hatred and spite. They also harass Sega/SonicTeam and threaten them when they don't get what they want. They also house pedophiles, And even steal art and "recolor" it and it's been proven they 90% of the time can't even draw their own art. They're also VERY abusive and will not hesitate to send out death threats to you should you not praise the series as being some second coming of Christ, Which it never has been nor will it never, EVER, Be. The sooner the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise is cancelled, The faster the fandom will die out, Either by brute-forced purging or finally, Naturally, Fading into a dark irrelevancy and being remembered as nothing but a dark, (metaphorical) blood-stained footnote in history.
Counter vote bomb.
Nobody made arguments, this should be a tied debate
FF .
No side actually made an argument so that is tied. No sources so that is tied. Conduct to Con for a full forfeit from Pro. Spelling and Grammar cannot be judged since Pro didn’t show up and Con made no mistakes.
Full forfeit
fffffffffffffffffff
This vote will make no difference in the outcome, but I must judge considering the entire debate as engaged by both participants and the results of each round. Pro entered a sufficient description of the debate to demonstrate, apparently, sufficient knowledge of the subject to render argument in support of the topic, but appears to have dropped out of sight sometime before the deadline to offer argument in R1, two months ago without comment, and has not returned since. However, Con's R1 totally lacks argument, rendering only a comment in the round that "I don't think my opponent is coming back." This does not qualify as argument contrary to the topic, as is Con's BoP.
R2: Another forfeit by Pro.
Con's "Well I turned up" is not a valid, nor compelling, nor qualifying argument.
R3: Pro: another forfeit.
Con: "Compelling" is not a valid, nor compelling, nor qualifying argument.
R4: Pro: another forfeit.
Con: "..." is not a valid, nor compelling, nor qualifying argument.
R5: Pro: forfeit
Con: "Another 6 months to go" is not a valid, nor compelling, nor qualifying argument. After carefully reading the Voting policy on "disqualifications", I conclude Con effectively qualifies as a Voting Policy disqualification on the basis of foregone conclusion: "Someone conceding the resolution itself but insisting they won anyways because they are ultimately right, is a prime example of a forgone conclusion." Although Con does not declare victory, the lack of an argument against the topic where no rebuttal was necessary due to Pro's forfeit, a concluding statement relative to the debate resolution is totally lacking and therefore qualifies as a disqualification.
Result; Pro forfeiture, but Con disqualification: Tie.
Full forfeit
Forfeiture.
Bruh! Six-month voting period, really?
It appears the streak continues
Due to you forfeiting the entire debate, votes placed against you are not eligible for moderation (barring extreme circumstances). I am marking them all as handled.
" Read the rest of my reply to you in PM. No need to share it"
Good thing about the PM is that you can just ignore me without shame. Out here in the public, we both know your claims do not hold.
"I know you don't like me."
You tend to make declarative statements about what others think, but you don't know what others think. Have I ever said that? An unfounded accusation. That said, you don't like the vote, you can report. That is your proper responser; don't complain in comments. Read the rest of my reply to you in PM. No need to share it.
Quirky vote, but according to the Dart voting policy, "The disrespect of even a single forfeiture necessitates this penalty (conduct point) unless there is reason to withhold it. Repeated forfeitures are grounds for casting conduct only votes without any consideration to arguments (continued in Forfeitures)". I know you don't like me but come on now this is petty - no need to hand your "dirty laundry" in the public.
looks like its gonna be an FF
I don't get it but alright
Considering how influential the sonic games are, it would be easy to support it.
This isn't at all a secured easy win, you know nothing about your opponent to determine that. They seem to know a lot about the game.
Picking the easy wins :)
Dunno how I missed on this, but this looks easy for Con to win.
god damn it as soon as i clicked accept bones accepted lol
