Around The Forum sign-ups

[J_Ray]

Hey there Sportstwo members, we are proud to announce the re-opening of JBB's old debate competition "Around The Forum". Sorry, no Tony Reali guest appearances, but 4 judges are ready to see members debate it out to find out who's the elite basketball mind around Sportstwo. Not only can you boast for a few months of being the ATF Champ, but winner of the competition also claims a $25 gift card from any online store of your choice. If your interested in signing up for this S2 event, put your name in this thread or send a PM to J_Ray. Thanks for your consideration.

Participants:

Debate Rules:

We will start with randomly selected groups. A topic to debate will be posted, and you will have 24 hours to make your first statement.

After everyone posts their opening statement or after 24 hours, it becomes an open debate topic between all of the group members.

After posting, you have to wait 2 posts or 3 hours, whichever comes first, in order to post again. This is to prevent this from becoming a 2 person discussion, only because they happen to be on at the same time while no one else is.

The debate will go on for 3 days, then, if you want, you'll have another 24 hours to make a closing statement.

So how will the winner be determined? Well, I will pick 3 judges and they will each PM me their list in order of the best to worst arguments. In case of a tie, I will determine who I believe is the winner.
