Want to wait for tomorrow to see the Egomaniac's response.

He makes this place a lot more lively anyway.

I find it funny that the OP put himself with the best debater on this forum (not including OBD migrates), I doubt its a coincidence.

Also it would be funny as hell if Egomaniac gets paired up with Steven or [Shikamaru]

Well those guys are already paired with someone else so unfortunately we will never see that. :ugeek:


Unfortunately going solo isn't allowed here I believe.

Actually, now that you bring it up, please pm all the judges and make them, I'm putting you in charge.

Alright xD will do.

Sorry for double posting but I just wanted to clarify something and have someone respond asap.

1) How many battles do you want us judges to come up with?
2) Do you want us to come up with a super battle debate for the finals? (As in having 5v5 or more for a debate)

Let me know asap

Shikamaru Nara

Sorry about the double posting. (Ironic. xD)

1) As many as you can, we're still getting members, so just make a lot.
2) Yes, I'm thinking that all of the battles one on one up until the finals with your super battle.

Alright...me and Sasori have come up with a couple already...I split the judges into two teams to brainstorm battles...

Lady Tsunade, me and Sasori are the first judge team and the other 3 on the other.

Right now we have :

One 1v1 Battle
One 3v3 Battle


I was going to say...the first rounds should be 1v1...semi finals 2v2's and 3v3's and then finals 5v5's or more.

Shikamaru Nara

Im here!
And I was actually going to suggest that we dom't have any 5v5 battles. I often find the more people in a match the less depth people tend to go into. It also seems to make the Debate ,in often cases mere:

X vs Y(X wins)
Q vs T (Q wins)
H vs F (H wins)
X,Q+ H vs R (R loses)

matches :/ I find the more fighters involved in a match , the worse a thread it becomes tbh. I find threads where the two or three fighters who are very close in skill such as Jiraiya vs Itachi often last very long, people consider the detail and circumstances more clearly, and the outcomes of the battle are thought in depth. Perhaps the first few battles could be 1v1,2v2 or 3v3 matches but no more than that :O These battles could include opponents who may not be neccesarily close in skill, but could have restrictions to make it more fair.

The final thread should have two ninja like Jiraiya or Itachi as I said, who are close in skill ;paired against each other- that would be a more challenging debate , where people might be more inclined to think more.
Well this is just a suggestion, Its up to you Shika and of course you too Jin xD

how about 2 characters vs. 2 other characters with prep?

Then actual character strength wont matter as much.

No way in hell am I debating something like Tsunade vs. Kakashi

The biggest problem with Naruto is the too limited matchups.

Too many of them are rapes.

That's the point. The teams should write their own prep's for their characters, so debater skill will actually matter what.

No matter how good I am, I have no way of debating something like Raikage vs. Hidan.

This actually brings up a very important question.

What the heck are the judges are planning?

They said they tried to make it fair but really we know VIZ has overused 1 vs 1 here. Hence why the BG title explanation changed.

Shikamaru told me to organize as many hypothetical battles as possible...as of now we have 4 or 5 for sure..and many others being tested.

I would ask him to see when he plans on shooting this off.

I agree but this is a contest...and as a judge I will say if someone doesn't go in depth about how a side wins...then I won't pass them...it'll be much like the War system battles judging...the more in depth you go and actually explain how stuff works..the better off you are in terms of winning. As of right now we have just 2v2's, 3v3's and I think a 1v2.

The debaters should think more when it's more ninja rather than when it's less imo.

But I do like what you bring to the tables :)

Of course!Thats our job! What I'm saying, is that it would make our lives so much easier if we didn't have to tell someone off for not going into depth. Threads would be easier to manage,less complex and not as much hassle if didn't have any 5 v 5 matches.

Exactly, but what I find, is that they don't. Just saying- I think it would be a lot more managable if we merely had a maximum of 3,maaaybe four people in a match.

Not sure if you agree but-I suppose as long as we make good threads, nothing majorly problematic is going to happen :o

I think our plan is to have 2v2's and 3v3's for the first couple rounds of debates..then for semi finals have 3v3's and 4v4's and then for the final a 5v5 match. It won't be hard to manage a 5v5 thread when it's just two teams going at it.

Well if both you and Sasori agree to it, then I guess we can do it. But I wouldnt ,people might just direct their focus on mainly one or two characters on either team and kinda forget about the rest.But, you guys are probably better at this stuff than I am- Ill trust you.

Yeah if it seems like it would take to much to manage then we may just say screw the 5v5....all depends on how it is setup though.

Don't worry lady :D I am still listening to what you have to say..your input is important too :D

I still don't get this. You have teams set up and everything. What if they won't debate with one another because its obvious who wins? What if the two people on the same team disagree? If this isn't hidden somewhere in the thread already please explain. I wouldn't have made teams already if I didn't know how this was going to happen if I were you.

If you are good debtor it doesn't matter what side you are on.

Shikamaru: I assume you or the judges will just assign matches and the side you must debate. That's the right way to do it.

If you are still taking entrants I guess I will join. I also can offer my as a rep donor if you want.

what?! youre pushing it back a week for one person?
Why not? :cool:

Also, chidoriroar, you shouldn't spam like that, because spamming gets you banned from the contest:

You cannot spam, you will be banned from the contest, and you will get dereps, also, if you do it enough, I WILL get you infracted.
And if you want to see your team, there's a thread (http://naruto.viz.com/forum/showthread.php?t=55887) for that.

Hey it's not such a big deal, look you have 2 rep power now. Also, like I said, you should stop asking people to add to your rep or it'll make people want to downrep you.

I said you were spamming because of the multiple posts in a row.

And about the contest, I don't see what's so bad about pushing it to June.

Well I have some unfortunate news guys. I was supposed to debate on the second which is today if I'm not mistaken, to be honest I don't even know anymore.

Because of my stupid ISP, I have no internet and probably won't have it for a week or two. Also the past few weeks I have been trying to get ahold of my partner to no avail. Sorry if I can't debate at the time, if you drop me out I will troll your ass.

My apologies for any inconvenience to those who were supposed to have a battle made for them yesterday and today..I have a lot going on in RL atm so me being able to hop on here is semi tough.

I will be posting the next two battles (yesterdays and todays) shortly.

Is it at all possible to get this whole thing moving a bit faster? Like two threads a day? I'm cool if that's a no, but I'm impatient. xD

There needs to be a system. PM the debaters, and tell them it's there turn, and if they have been inactive in the last week, give them 1 day. If they don't get online, the other team wins by default.

Jinchiruuki
06-04-2010, 12:43 PM
I have seen the users online as I put their threads up. 1 day is also not enough for some people. I would give them a couple days at least.

48 hours sounds good.

Jinchiruuki
06-04-2010, 12:47 PM
Shikamaru we need clarification on the following:

1) If neither team posts a debate....do both teams forfeit?
2) If one team posts their argument and no counter is made by the other team within 48+ hours does that team automatically win by default?

Shikamaru Nara
06-04-2010, 12:58 PM
1) Yes.
2) Yep.

Jinchiruuki
06-04-2010, 01:01 PM
alright I have started the 48 hour limit today. So all those from June 1-4 have 48 hours to do this. I give the first few day debators leeway since they probably did not see the threads...and I didn't PM them until a few seconds ago.

both my opponents and team mates have taken a vacation it would seem

also my posting maybe sporadic tomorrow and Sunday since I'll be tending to some RL affairs to I apologize in advance if I slow down the debate but I will get a word in

Question- I didn't really get one of the rules; so if my team member(The IWD) posts in the match thread who he thinks would win, then the opponent goes, do I post next? or do I wait for the next match we're in(if we win)?

Jinchiruuki
06-05-2010, 03:53 PM
So is this thing a flop? Because not one match has been debated yet.

Shikamaru Nara
06-05-2010, 04:20 PM
Just post after your opponent's counter.

Not a flop, the serious people will be posting more in 2nd round.

Can both teams debate on the same side, I mean they both think that the same side would win and they are arguing over who's points are more valid for that side?

Or does each team have to pick a different side to argue for?

This is what I want to know. I mean if they can debate on the same side, I'd assume that the team with the better explanation wins.

So Shikamaru, once a debate has been decide, what are we doing for rep donations?

You said in the first round everyone gets rep; however, I assume we are not giving rep to teams that didn't even participate, right?

Also, what if one partner of the team wasn't there? Should we be giving rep to them anyway since their partner carried them through?

06-08-2010, 12:46 PM
Can we partner up the people who don't have partners or their partner never showed up?
