IMO, if your opponent forfeits, you should at least make some argument to capitalize on it. Otherwise, neither side has made an argument, and your opponent’s forfeit is meaningless. As of now, this debate is a draw, until you make an actual argument. It doesn’t have to be a good one, either. Just post an argument.
As in, are you arguing for the removal of the multi criteria method from the site, or are you arguing that the one based on arguments alone is just better?
I am entitled to my opinion of which poem I like more.
As for the whole not wanting to do artistic things in rated debates, same. My current elo is pitiful because I used to forfeit every debate and I’m trying to raise it; I don’t want to do stuff like poem/rap/other battles and troll debates in rated debates either.
Oh, I didn't even notice this was unrated... I was trying to make it a goal only to cast votes in rated debates since those are the more important ones IMO... oh well. It was a good read throughout.
Considering this one. Might finally put actual effort in a debate on this site for once. But I'm going to ensure my schedule is free enough before I do so.
I can understand why you don't want Shila and FLRW to vote on this, but having that same requirement against Barney is ridiculous. Barney is a quality voter.
"I don't have to prove I could potentially talk Pro into dying. He has to prove it would be impossible for me to do" LMAO
That works lol
Normally I wouldn’t condone waiting until the last round, but here it’s acceptable. As long as you do that, you’ll have my vote

It’s time for a DEATH BATTLEEEEEEEEEE!
Well, pro does have a point about the entertainment value 😂

DART has two voting methods you can pick, one has multiple criteria, the other is based on arguments only. What, specifically, are you arguing here?
30 days of voting is wack imo
Bro who tf would accept this in a rated debate
30 days of voting is wild lol
I can see why this is standard. No one in their right mind would accept this if it were a rated debate

Man that vote took longer than I wanted it to
Hmmmm I seem to recall this debate being rated, and that's why I was going to vote on it. My goal was to only vote on rated debates.
I'll break my own rule here because this topic is goated; besides, it should be an easy vote.

*or at the very least, personal learning
^^^^Side note to my vote/slight correction
Goated debate. An instant classic if it goes all rounds without forfeits or a concession.
The way I see it, if your opponent forfeits, you still need to make at least some argument to capitalize on it.
It doesn’t matter the way in which a debater fails to make an argument. If they didn’t make an argument, they didn’t win.
This is a draw until someone makes an argument.
who tf lifted this lol
Ah.
Also, this debate is unrated (not sure if this was your intention OP)
Prepare for semantics!
I didn't even see Round #1 when I voted. Oops lol.
Yeah that would be tough. I would probably need to find a unique angle.
Ah, I forgot. Was busy with college assignments.
I might play devil's advocate and accept this. It depends on the time I have. I'm already doing one debate right now.
that rfd LMAO
this'll be something lol
Unless it's a meme debate, I'm not going to be accepting unrated debates.
Just noticed it was a full week. Yeah, I'll be fine.
If I have the time, I will actually do this one and put effort into it.

Bruh it’s a troll debate, there’s gonna be fallacies :P
Lol
It’s fine. I don’t think you can do related debates yet anyways (site requires 3 unrated debates first, I think)
Wish it was rated but sure
Lol. For 5 dollars, I would easily buy a copy of Chess Quest. DOOM re-skinned as Chess. Who wouldn't want to try it out?
Maybe I’ll call this debate Chessbox One, since that seems to be the natural progression.
Imagine we’re sitting at a chess board playing Chess, but the game is weird and the moves don’t have to make sense, so you’re just trying to goof off.
I don’t know, but to me it seems to come down to how one interprets jihad
interesting... I wish I had time to do a debate on this, but I never have time to finish my debates
Uhhhhh ok
what
It's a joke debate. Just make whatever moves you want. We're at the mercy of whatever satisfies the voters' desire for shits and gigs.
All of Kashmir?
I'll ask and re-evaluate this debate.
Deleted my vote since I am unsure about how to vote with a partial but majority forfeit.

I don't see "X vs. Y" debates as slanted in BoP. I would vote like BoP is even in this case. One of you two needs to make an argument.
