How are you going to be dealing with evidence since cut words count as characters here? Post the cut card in the debate and the original one in the comments?

I don't know about 2 K's, but I might throw one in there. I might only pull out 2 or 3 extinction impacts (not including the link turns I'll be running :)

On Cross-X.com they consider you stupid if you run less than 2 kritiks and dont run 7 extinction impacts. My guess is that con wants to actually debate the topic.

I won't accept, as I'm not very good at policy; But I'm going to stalk this debate.

Also, if you really want to do a policy debate on this site it might just be best to write full-length speeches and upload them to scribdb, then post the link for your round argument.

Why not just have the debate on cross-x.com? It would be much simpler and the judges would understand the debate much better.

Reasons for voting decision: Forfeit, but it was still interesting. I wonder if He-3 mining might actually be acted on. It seems pretty good even in light of alternatives.
