Con wins conduct as pro forfeited 2/3 rounds.

Arguments/rap goes to con also. The way I judge these debates is by awarding 1 point per round and adding them up. Since probwins 2 rounds by default he wins

Con wins this debate hands down. RM utterly destroyed his opponent here. See comments for a full analysis of the debate.

Conduct to con for the forfeit. See comments for argument analysis. It’ll be a few hits to be patient.

Conduct goes to con because of the forfeit.

Pro has a tall burden of proof that he simply never meets. He never gives us an objective rubrics in which to judge who the “smartest” person in history was. In round 2 it’s easy to see that he doesn’t understand the burden. Con doesn’t need a counter example, a point that he argued quite well.

Conduct goes to con. "Oh come off it you soddy pillock" is not acceptable. Sources go to con as they were the only ones who used it. I'll analyse the arguments later.
