    Hi there...

    We have an important piece of legislation passing through this country's courts and its up for a referendum on the 11th of June (unless I'm badly mistaken...).

    I plan to have a Boards Debate for the week prior to it, finishing on the day of the referendum.

    I'm looking for 3 decent debaters for each side. It works like this:
    The two teams of 3 are the only ones with access to write into the Logos/Debate forum, but everyone can read what they write.
    They make one post each a day which can be a new post of a rebuttal of an old post.

    The public can comment and debate as much as they like in a public forum called Pathos/Public.

    At the end of the week they sum up and there is a vote by the judges (3 of us) as well as a popular vote in the public forum.

    If you want to put your name down then please feel free to do so, here
    You will be committing to making one post a day, each day for a week. You will need to coordinate with your team mates if you want to debate well but frankly its not too taxing :)

    So, anyone want a spot-light on their soapbox?

    DeV.
