Description

Rules of the debate:
1: The BoP is shared
2: I waive the 1st round and my opponent waives the last round. Violation is a loss of conduct point.

Reason:

The CoC makes a debate where after the first round of debating, if the opponent concedes and/or forfeits all Rounds afterwards it's automatically considered FF.

I am going to to take full advantage of this until the mods fix their voting system. Easy vote, slam-dunk thanks.

Reason:

Pro had made a case, to which Con responded, however, Pro failed to post any arguments for 3 out of the 4 rounds either due to forfeit or not having enough time. This I view as poor conduct, and as such I will not be weighing the arguments, sources, or S&G, and I give conduct to Con for attempting to salvage the debate.
