Can We Get Some "Point-Counterpoint" Debates Going on DU?

Edited on Fri Nov-07-03 10:34 AM by Magic Rat
Just one-on-one showdowns between two DUers to see who the best debater on the site is?

Obviously, a topic would have to be picked that DUers seem polarized on.

But wouldn't it be cool to have a sort of NCAA Tournament for debating. We could start with 64 DUers. Put them into brackets and then at the end of the debate, other DUers would rate who did the best job of debating and they'd move onto the next round.

Until a final, supreme debate champion of DU was chosen.

What do you think, good idea?
