A Tournament System on debate.org should be implemented.

First of all, I would just like to point out that this is more of an attempt to get the word out than actually debating an issue. I would not mind if it stayed in debate challenges for a long time because I would still be getting the word out. However, if someone is to challenge me, I would consider the voting after the two rounds as being if you think it would be a good idea and who convinced you of that. I would appreciate comments on the bottom of the debate. Now... to prove why I think this should be "implemented", first I want to explain HOW I think it should be done. 1. The tournaments would be set up by debate.org itself. This is so they stay fair and reasonable. It would be ridiculous if we allowed everyone to set up tournaments. 2. Closed voting system. First of all, the closed voting system would consist of assigned judges of some sort. This would prevent people from making multiple profiles and voting for them self. 3. There would be at least one per month. I would presume that each tournament would take a while since there would continue to be 3 day speech time (unless this would be lessened for some reason). But I would suggest having a week to sign up prior to the first round of debates beginning. 4. The debates would be 3 "rounds" with a set debate topic that would be set by debate.org. To make the debates long enough but not too long, I think 3 rounds would be the best. Also, as far as what would be debated, I would think that the website setting up a new "resolution" for each tournament. 5. There will be some sort of prelims and/or bracket to break it down to a final round. This would be the best part, after the tournament has been going for a while, there would be a final round between the two best debaters of the tournament. The way to decide the two best could be decided a number of ways. There could be a bracket (single or double elimination) down to the final round. Or simply could be a couple debates and the top two people with the best record will break to finals. This would have to be determined by the creators of the site them self. I would think that it would be best to try a few different styles then determine what the best method is. (just so everyone knows, all of these are merely suggestions and by no means are how things would be run) The rest are just merely reasons as to why I think that a tournament system should be implemented. 1. Tournaments are the ultimate form of competition. When you have tournaments, there is more than just one vs. one... It's more like one vs. twenty... I don't suggest that this would be all debate.org would be (as I would assume that normal debates would be able to continue)... but simple that it could be something new that debate.org would offer. 2. Tournaments would make online debates more important and paid attention to. If I debate someone online right now, people that I tell seem to not care as much as I think they would if it was in a tournament. It would definitely point out some of the people on this website that have true talent in the form of debate. 3. More people would join debate.org I honestly think that if I could tell people about debate.org WITH a tournament system, that they would be a lot more interested in joining. -In the end, I simply see debate.org as even BETTER with a tournament system (even though it is awesome right now)... Please comment what you think just for feedback sakes... Thanks for your time!
