Description

I pick the topic, I even pick the sides.

Mall/Con obeys and tries to argue the side of the topic that is assigned.

@RationalMadman

You're welcome. I figured that was what was going on.

@SirAnonymous

Thanks for the vote. I intentionally distracted during this once Mall had admitted the very thing needed for me to win.

I am not sure what I just read...

This had the potential to be some liar's paradox shit.

>Points Awarded: 3 points to Con (note: this and any future references to sides refers to the assigned position rather than the reversed position given by the instigator)
>Reason for Decision:

This debate was super confusing but it looks like Mall is trolling and not really trying to fight, hence “helping pro gain rating” (mall was pro for this resolution). Weird premise.

>Reason for Mod Action:
The basis for the voter's decision appears to be an interpretation of Con's argument that isn't directly justified using what was stated by the debaters. To be clear, this might be a reasonable interpretation, but the voter has to do more to show that the interpretation is valid.

@whiteflame

The reason Undefeatable gives is based on his own argument for the resolution, not Mall's.

Please remove it and make him rejustify based solely on arguments.

To be fair, I think Mall is basically me, but with even less knowledge about society.

Mall is definitely a troll. You can just look to the questions ive asked him on his profile. He claims to not know what a troll is. Yet at the same time can use really good grammar on rare occasions. I'm just surprised how he can keep this troll up for years.

What the heck did I just read… oh well…
