Oromagi has finally dethroned Ramshutu. In a battle that lasted for months, it's like T-Series vs Pewdiepie

I don't think it is remotely like T-Series vs Pewds. T-Series had ubiquitous levels of disapproval.

Blamonkey is a right-wing Libertarian to my knowledge, he considers himself Centrist though. I don't know how he got the Progressive title.

Blamonkey is pro-Capitalism but anti-big-corporations. He has mixed feelings on death penalty and easily could take either side on the debate. I will let him speak for himself but you should know he's very willing to play devil's advocate in debates.

I know him from DDO and debateisland so I got more perspective on his views than most but I know for a fact he will not like you labelling him as a progressive or even necessarily an atheist, I think he prefers the term agnostic but honestly that I don't know.

until I start posting sheep rape poems in gun control debates and the whole thing comes crashing to a halt.  I am clear that in spite of the ranking, I would not fare well in most any head-to-head debate with you.  Now I've got to figure out how to get a forum post with 25 likes.

Funny, what makes you think I'm an atheist and/or progressive?

I kind of agree with RationalMadman's analysis of my ideology more. I take random positions in debates and sometimes in threads. Although I respect the top debaters on the site like Ram, Oromagi, and Ragnar, I also respect Thett1 who happens to be conservative. I hope one day people learn to understand that most sides can be argued, and that a liberal or conservative skew shouldn't automatically invalidate an argument. That said, it's hard to identify with either party at this point. They diverged so far to the left and right that it's hard to express anything but apathy at the current election cycle.

In one subject of accomplishments, we should vote on who gets to win the first "friend of the crowd" medal since that's pretty hard to get without calling attention to it in the first place.

What if we started a forum where everybody posts once requesting maximum likes and everybody is asked to like every prior post before requesting?

I actually just started a break (would have earlier, but someone I previously mocked as a forum troll challenged me to a debate... they made it unrated, so it shouldn't matter to you overtaking me).

This one I am guessing.
Well I need to win a lot more debates so I wanted to hold that offer until I was much closer.

Gator- thanks for the ack.  I don't know Youtube personalities well enough to engage the metaphor.

Dr.F- to true believers and trumpists,  any well-reasoned conversation must seem like a progressive atheist cabal .  I don't mind being called either although the progressives and atheists I know think I fall well short of their societies.  My religion is mostly just don't believe what you don't know.

Omar- I'm volunteering at the Telluride Film Festival all next week so now's your chance.  Honestly, it is comers like you & pink & speed that gave me a sense of urgency about getting that gold medal- clearly it was now or never.

Ragnar doesn't have his gold medal yet and I consider him more deserving than me.  Ragnar handed me my first loss on DDO years ago & I have been a fan ever since.   I have no academic or formal debate background so I just imitate my betters and Ragnar is my favorite exemplar because of his clean prose, dry wit, and adaptability.  I'm tempted to just offer Ragnar a debate to get it over with but my 9 year old nephew keeps asking if I'm still undefeated....so yeah, that's hard to give up.

At any rate, this shit is definitely going on my resume- highest ranked debater on DART, at least for a handful of late summer days.

Perhaps I'll drive off a cliff (happens weekly up there) and require a long convalescence.  Cross your fingers!

I cross my fingers that you live in peak happiness while removed off this site giving me the chance to move up the leaderboards.

I don't want you dead. Your account doesn't get deleted nor removed off the leaderboards.

More like I am not going to take a concrete stance.

It is oromagi not Oromagi.
