OT has been a bit boring lately so let’s spice it up with a debate.

The debate question will be - Should homework be banned?

This is how it will work -
This debate will be split into two groups : Affirmative and Negative.
Affirmative will support the idea of banning homework and Negative will be the opposite.

This is how the structure will work -
Day 1 : Affirmative will present their claims, evidence and reasoning.
Day 2 : Negative will present their claims, evidence and reasoning.
Day 3 : Negative will present their counter argument to anything Affirmative said on day 1.
Day 4 : Affirmative will present their counter argument to anything Negative said on day 2.
Day 5 : Free for all, both side can respond without restrictions.
(When presenting your counter argument on day 3 and 4, you’re not allowed to counter argue the opposition’s counter argument as that is for day 5.)

More rules
  1. You are only allowed to post when it’s your time to present and you can only post once, however you can edit it as many time as you ant before the day is over.
  2. When presenting something factual, you need to provide at least one source on the bottom.
  3. You need to presently formally and you are prohibited from using any curse words unless it’s a direct quote from a source.
  4. When responding to the opposition or strengthening your own teammates, you must quote what they said (Not the whole post but the individual parts)
  5. You are not allowed to edit post you made from previous days ago.
  6. On day 5, you are allowed to post any many time as you want.
  7. Refrain from insulting other people.

I was like what server and it was not listed in first post so I took a stroll outside, a dangerous and long journey behest the dangers it presented to me, but lest I came through and that's how I realized the sacred intricacies within one's self - from the very beginning up to know, it all became clear to me, vivid like daylight in a crystal clear dew drop, I came back and sat down to locate the source of the astounding hidden treasure and write the tale of how I got to where I am today.

I was the reason we got an upper limit to how long presentations could last. Was supposed to hold one for 10-15 minutes, ended up holding it for 70+ h e h

On another note, I propose that this video be the subject of the next debate

It might be short enough not to be considered one as well. . .
