Reasons for voting decision: Con used the only source. Pro wins though because I'm tired of the "haha my word is longer" wins. I mean really, how cheap is that? Pro had a cool word that was interesting to learn.

Reasons for voting decision: The word was outrageously unrealistic but had a source . The Pro had no sources to support his word and his word is also unrealistic.. Win by Con for providing a source..
