    Mhmm. ^.^ I feel it was a popularity contest, but meh. We'll never know. :p

    Honestly, if I were voting, and if anyone were voting, you look at things the way you visualize or feel about them.

    Example, when I look at replays in the CF PUG Draft to see whether or not people are hacking, if I feel the person is hacking either because he was doing good until he growlered, or because it's a community fact that he hacks, I'll look at everything as a hack. EVEN THOUGH, a teammate could be calling out where people are, letting him prefire and such.

    This is the case with debates. How do you know people aren't a Combat Arms lover looking at the CF Debate and just saying, "Nope nope nope, your so bad at this, combat arms is the best. I'll go vote for ScareCrow" and vice versa, you know?

    Honestly, I feel there should be 3-5 judges, and those judges should be impartial for the voting.

    We finally got a couple of debates going so there is no need to complicate it further until we get more of them. If we get like 10 to 20 debates and several debaters, then we can look at a judge system.

    Your game popularity argument is hurt by the fact that Cross Fire won the Online Shooter Showdown and beat Combat Arms head on.

    If you don't want the polls, you can just keep debating until one of you quits the debate:).

    Again, the Online Shooter Showdown is about popularity. I know that when the Shooter Showdown was on, I ended up not voting for Cross Fire because I disliked. I'm sure others would do the same for Combat Arms. Life is about popularity. Your not going to play Realms of Loria or Syrnia if there's Runescape or WoW, will you? No, of course not, many of you don't even know of these amazing games because they aren't popular.

    Not having a judge system for the smaller debates sets up a stage for popularity in the larger debates. 10-20 debates would just support the fact because you could see on a larger scale the effects of popularity on the debates. Next time, (even I will go in this debate) pit Realms of Loria against RuneScape. I'll represent Realms of Loria, someone represent RuneScape. We'll see who wins. Hopefully I'm wrong, and hopefully it's not about popularity. ^.^

    I'm not saying ScareCrows debate wasn't a valid win, he definitely got me on some parts of his argument, but I'm just saying, Combat Arms is a far more popular game than Cross Fire, and he's right, most people don't play competitive, and CF is more for competitive players.

    Lol insane.

    Exo, popular games a popular for a reason, people like them, a lot of people like them, hence, they are popular. And for people to like them, they must be good games.

    Yeah, but I was under the impression that a debate focused on who won based on what was said, not the popularity of the game? ^.^

    I know. I feel it is a popularity game, but how do I know? ^.^ Unless we asked all the people who voted why they voted lol.

    Let's just end it. ^.^
