FRAMEWORK It's very important that the difference between obeying the spirit of the rules and the letter of the rules is made clear. To follow the spirit of a rule is to try and decipher the original intention of the rule or rules and follow them in that regard. http://en.m.wikipedia.org... We can actually look with-in the rules themselves to see if BSH1, wanted the spirit of the rules obeyed or letter, when writing them. Rule number 5 specifically states that there are to be "no semantics". What's meant by no semantics, when set as a rule for a debate, is that a debater wants you to look at the spirit of what he is saying, and not necessarily the technical definition of a word. Rule number 5 clearly indicates that the creator of the rules, had intended people to follow the spirit of the rules as opposed to the letter of the rules, but there is more. Rule number 6 states that there are to be "no Ks". A K is short for "Kritik", which is a type of argument that challenges the underlying assumptions of a debate. It's like somebody arguing for Nihilism when they are challenged to a debate on whether eating meat is wrong. This is another important rule, because the writer is saying he wants you to keep within the spirit of the debate as opposed to exploiting everything you could possibly argue. The mindset of the rule creator is clearly one that values the "spirit of the law", over the "letter of the law". Any advantage gained from bringing up rebuttals early was erased by me refraining from arguing in the previous round. The rebuttals weren't even fully used or expanded upon, they were basically just a place marker to let my opponent know what to expect next round, so he can attempt to address them a little early if possible (pre empt them). This is the last time I'm nice to this particular opponent, he complains when, I give him an advantage by briefly mentioning the arguments I intend on using later, and then he accuses me of being a liar about my PMs with BSH1 on this matter. My opponents conduct this debate (cheaply attempting to get a free point, by attacking both my character and an overly strict interpretation of the rules), is not only enough to award me the conduct points, but the argument points as well. I'll remind the voters of what was said in round 1, by my opponent. Rule number 10; "10. Violation of any of these rules, results in a loss of conduct points, and due to the severity of the breach may merit an entire forfeit of the debate" My opponent has violated the rules badly enough that the judges, are justified in awarding me the argument points, as stated in rule number 10. My opponent has specifically broken rule number 4, about maintaining a civil and decorous atmosphere. He not only violated the spirit of that rule, but he violated the letter of it as well. Here are a few quotes that demonstrate him calling a respected veteran on this site, a liar and implying I'm acting in a despicable way. "My opponent straight up lied about this... I can provide screenshots if necessary but he has admitted to making up the claim that he talked to BSH1; and BSH1 could not find this conversation when looking through his PMs and profile comments. When I asked Wylted if he could bump the PM or point to where he made the comment to BSH1. This is not only breaking the fourth rule, but also lying in order to justify both a false accusation against me and a false defense for his own poor conduct. Quite frankly I'm shocked by this terrible cheating" My opponent attacking me as a liar and cheater gets me this win. If he doesn't believe me about the PMs I've had with a good friend of mine, he can just point out, that I'm mistaken or that I have no evidence to support my position. He has threatened to photoshop messages (in a PM to me) that will make it look as though, I've admitted to some sort of lying. I remind my opponent, that not only does my reputation for honesty speak for it's self, but that judges are not allowed to let their vote be influenced by anything outside of the debate (even photo shopped PMs). Based on what I've already said, conduct and argument points should automatically go to me, based on my opponents vicious and uncalled for attacks.
