Are u sure?

Can I just ask - presumably it won't matter, but are the dates of the debates according to GMT, to US East Coast time, to Australian time, or to the time of the country that everyone's currently in?

'Cause Yeddi and I are, as ever, about half a day ahead of the rest of you

And me and Steven K, and Mr Bill are half a day behind you.

I agree, although Jaakko is very informed as well.

Ah, good to see your reading skills are top shelf Ix. Allow me to clarify.

I'm on the Libertarian team. Were you to join the Marxist team, you'd be the best player that WE (the Libertarians) would have. Basically, I was implying that you on their team would help us.

Somehow, it loses the humor when I have to explain it though....

Argh... the Ix-bashing continues. Seriously, what did I miss? I don't understand what Ix did to get this treatment. =/

I agree, and he was a "Stalinist".

I fail to understand. I know libertarianism inside and out. I was open to libertarianism before studying it. I could of course without doubt therefore argue on the side of the libertarians if I wanted to, but as a communist and not a libertarian I should prefer to be on the communists' side, which would be easy for me, because of my extensive knowledge of both Marxism and libeterianism. At the same time, I do not deny that it would be easy for me to be on the libertarian team, as the in effect the team leader (whether officially or not) owing to my admirable grasp of for Marxism is something else I know inside and out, having been a Marxist for most of my life.

Easy there hotshot, before your head gets so big you can't leave the room.

In effect team leader eh? I think that we MIGHT be all set with the team that we've assembled. I really do consider it the dream team for debates, as I think you'll see. Smashthestate's research and keen economic prowess, Dao's sheer historical knowledge, and Noemenon's knowledge of other forum members, not to mention his own incredible wealth of knowledge. It's an All-Star powerhouse.

On a side note, I really think we should start a trash talking thread.

I have that.

Dao's sheer historical knowledge,

Likewise this.

and Noemenon's knowledge of other forum members, not to mention his own incredible wealth of knowledge.

This could just as easily be said of me.

I could easily be on the libertarian team.

This could just as easily be said of me.

Do not forget to mention how humble you are as well.

Yes, that too, in general, but what does that have to do with debating?

You know...If i didn't know any...b...Is Ix? Is he fuckin with us? I think he is...I think Ix is fucking with us.


I didn't even know he had a sense of humor...

Unless of course he wasn't fucking with us...in which case...It's even funnier!!!

Ix. Let me explain this even furthur. He is saying that you are either BAD AT DEBATING and/or ARE STUPID/ILLOGICAL/LACK INTELLIGENCE.

I'm not gonna say that I was implying both


.....but I was.

Ixabert, I think you need to be less assertive. High self esteem is great, but it turns so easily into pompous arrogance.

You know, the Dream Team is going to drop out. Ixabert is now the libertarian debate team, since he's so clearly superior to us.

Yes, because you know the owning you will recive from us.

Riiiiiiight...

I have a new idea for the Liberal's sigs:



Compliments of the Libertarian party.

And we all know everyone loves the guys that can kill doves!
