Dang, it's weird having something I said being referenced. I honestly can't tell you why my school filter blocks some pages and not others for the reason of "Gaming."

Before the new tab was added I only experienced it blocking a page with the word "abortion" in it. For instance when a debate with the word "abortion" in the title is on the main page I couldn't go to the main page, but I could use the history to go to a different page and surf from there. Now it just seems to randomly block some pages.

I'll try to post my findings about specific page blockages and allowances soon.

The new voting is great.

But it can be frustrating. For example, I rarely vote for myself, but I've discovered that I lost one of my favourite debates because SOMEONE voted for themselves

Now that I look at it, I see that my debates with her result in the same manner - she gets 21 full points from her 2 accounts and Vi. I'm not sure how her conduct or spelling was superior enough, or mine inferior enough, to call for such a vote.

Anyway, I'm digging the new updates. The new voting tab gives GREAT insight as to how people are voting ;), and while the Games tab is a little annoying at first I quickly overcame it. Like seriously, 5 minutes and I already forget it's presence.

Indeed. theLwerd appears to have an auto 14 or 21 every time she debates. I haven't checked Vi's debates, but I expect the same. That 203-6 record doesn't seem all that impressive anymore.

Wow, she even double-vote bombed against Vi-Veri.

Like I said in my first post...I'll be testing different ads...try and keep up. Regarding the Games tab...there are NO games hosted on Debate.org, and I've had a link to DORK.com since I launched Debate.org. To my knowledge, blocking software doesn't discriminate against domains that don't host games/SWF files.

With all of this negativity going around, I think we need something positive. Therefore, I would just like to thank Kleptin for his voting methods. From what I remember from a comment, he said that he would vote for his opponent (down the 7-line) unless he was sure that he actually won. From what I've seen, he stuck to this, even giving me Arguments in our debate.

So, go Kleptin!
