yeah I somehow lost “I’d rather live in a world without global warming than a world where abortion is banned”. #seldioraisbaddebaterconfirmed

...but don't you feel like you're getting a lot better?  I feel like you are getting much better at this.

The CON position was stronger than you thought... that doesn't make you a bad debater per se.

I haven't read large numbers of your debates, but you do seem to be improving from the ones I have read.

pretty sure I'm not improving. I already proved beyond a reasonable doubt that "9spaceking" was a superior debater to "seldiora"

There are 347 DArt accounts, according to the leaderboard. Of those, maybe 30 or 40 visit the site with regularity and about 10-20 comprise 90% of debates and forums. You are one of them. You're doing alright.

You have to be prepared to factor in bias.

Given the medium, it's impossible to moderate bias effects.

Like SaFalcon said, you are a practicing debater. You use this site to practice debating.


There are four status' to a debater on this site:

Inactive

Practicing

Debating

Keeping (their place of the leaderboard)


You can make the switch from practicing to debating but you'll have to like Intelligence did, make a new account.


You might not notice, but DDO is dead, and DART has the best from DDO. So, yes you have improved.
