The Defend Your Character Tournament Signup Topic

Contrary to the original post, the seeding placement has been dropped because I don't know 60% of the people who signed up a random number generator is probably fairer. Or, at least, no one's complained yet. >_>

Sign up, please! Only five spots left!

Also, I'm looking for a good four or so judges.

And why should I trust your ability? You have very consistently been losing ground to the Germans, regardless of whether I've been on your side or not. What you're telling me is that I have a dilemma: either I can fight you and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany, or I can fight Germany and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany.

I'd offer to debate, but my FE theroy is ridiculously rusted, and frankly I'd probably end up talking about stuff like "flow" and "burden of proof", so yeah.

I'll judge if you have a spot, though you'll find me more of a flow judge than most people.

That could be a problem. Well, since we're judging based on the debater's skill, judging shouldn't be a problem (in fact, considering that you won't have prebiases about characters, you'd probably be a decent judge since all you have to go on is their skill).

...Judge plz?

Thanks, Flare.

OK, so +2 judges.

Right now, we've got myself, WJC, Flarebringer, and Soulavenger69 (I'm assuming your username's the same too >_>) as judges. If possible, I'd like to get Medi Guy and Shire Guardian as judges, and perhaps a couple of GHEBeteers can fill the final slots.

Thanks, guys!

Right. I'm going to have a substitute judge for that kind of scenario; if two judges go against each other, their votes will cancel each other out assuming they both vote for themselves, but one judge against a nonjudge is clearly biased. >_>

Not a lot. You simply have to read the debates and state who you vote for. It's preferable if you write a couple of sentences as to why you voted the way you did, but you don't have to if you don't want to.

I'm already seeing holes in these arguments.

Shouldn't Lute's ability to attack at both range and close distance be mentioned? And Ranger Gerik stats included?

Also,

Quote:
 
Because, against that Ranger reinforcement in 10 Eir, Gerik pulls out the 9 Mt/-0 AS/+30 Crit Killing Edge, while Lute pulls out the amazing 5 Mt/-1 AS/+0 Crit Fire Tome.

I think the point is Gerik CAN pull out a killing edge, while Lute has no response to that.

You forgot

Quote:
 
Rangers average 3 less Res than Def, so let’s go with that and add 3 to Lute’s Atk. Gerik’s Atk is still superior at 23(to Lute’s 21), he has that nice +30 Crit so considerable odds of OHKOing the Ranger, and he’s not gonna get doubled while Fire Lute may get doubled and Thunder Lute certainly will(which is why she’s using Fire over Thunder in this case).


It's to show that Gerik can use a stronger weapon without the penalty (read: AS loss) that Gerik gets.

ATTN: All FEABL debaters, RE: Opener
You have until the end of the weekend to post your opener. If you have a legitimate reason as to why you can't post, say so here and I'll grant you a time extension.

At the risk of disclosing potentially beneficial information to either side, I won't comment on the Gerik/Lute or any other debate between combatants at the moment.

I'm afraid that it is a bit late. Some more judges came out of nowhere lightnin' fast. >_>

I don't mind you giving your input, of course; it's just that we've already filled spots.

Unless...hm. If I didn't mention Soul as a judge, I could add you two and have nine judges and two substitute judges total. That would give quite a wide range of opinions and give both of you the spots I practically said you'd have, so I'll look into it.

Quote:

The judges'll notice. :O

Of course, I can already see how avoiding DA from a Ranger via attacking from range would cause complications, so...bleh. In the end, like WJC said, if the other debater doesn't notice, their loss. That's why opening sucks, since the second poster gets the last word and gets to shred your argument right off the bat. >_>

Really? Where I come from, if something doesn't carry across the flow, then I assume it hasn't been said. It isn't fair to allow the judge to overlay his own expertise over the debate.

Well, this is GameFAQs we're talking about...

ATTN: All FEABL debaters, RE: Opener
You have until the end of the weekend to post your opener. If you have a legitimate reason as to why you can't post, say so here and I'll grant you a time extension.

At the risk of disclosing potentially beneficial information to either side, I won't comment on the Gerik/Lute or any other debate between combatants at the moment.

I just read through the topics, and I noticed that you never mentioned that I would be judging...but by the looks of things now, there's going to be quite a controversy

I could have sworn I did...oh dear...


Your post at the topic, err, well one of them, and only part of it.

"First, my panel of judges insofar:

ikki_tousen, Mario2v321, Flarebringer (signed up at the FEABL), Shire Guardian (same), Silver Druid (same), and DarkDruid666. Medi Guy is also considering this at the FEABL, or at least appeared to be. >_>"


I do not see my SN mentioned anywhere in there, however

If I didn't mention Soul as a judge, I could add you two and have nine judges and two substitute judges total. That would give quite a wide range of opinions and give both of you the spots I practically said you'd have, so I'll look into it.


That's perfectly fine by me >_>

And why should I trust your ability? You have very consistently been losing ground to the Germans, regardless of whether I've been on your side or not. What you're telling me is that I have a dilemma: either I can fight you and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany, or I can fight Germany and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany.

Quite right. If the opponent fails to notice the well-disguised card stacking and other logical fallacies, then we must turn a blind eye as well. We're not the ones debating here.

The reason I said "The judges will notice" was for something more drastic, ie complete bull made up and thrown together in the last post. For something like this, we wouldn't need to raise the point, but if someone made all sorts of false claims and such...I just can't see how we could ignore it, since points raised in the "last word" post aren't conceded.

I'm talking about the little things...in most debates of (what kind of filter is that)-decent skill, there is rarely such gaping holes. However, it is unfair that the opener gets so terribly screwed in that regard. I don't mind being skeptical of last posts, but I don't think we should nitpick unless the mistake is blatant. To each his own, I suppose.

In LD, judges disregard new points brought up in the last speech. So this is okay:

A: "Ice cream is good because it's sweet"
B: "Well, foods that are too sweet taste bad."
A: "Yeah, well, ice cream ISN'T too sweet."
B: "Yes it is, I mean, have you ever had Ben & Jerry's?"

But this isn't:
A: "Ice cream is good because it's sweet"
B: "Well, foods that are too sweet taste bad."
A: "Yeah, well, ice cream ISN'T too sweet."
B: "Fine. Well, ice cream is bad becuase it has too much fat, and YOU CAN'T RESPOND NEENER NEENER NEENER".

Last night I had a dream that my children would not be judged by the color of their usernames, but by the content of their posts.

I'd assume that LD is Lincoln Douglas, right?

I don't debate that often, and when I do I debate Policy, which has about 83275920857 rounds at the end where you can only dispute existing points, not make new ones.

Policy...*barfs*

Nothing against you guys in general, it's just that whenever schools make policy people do LD, they come in with basically no value/vc and just make proposals for a real-life solution, and call me stupid when I point that out.
