What's the toughest decisions you've made today?
We were planning an early thanksgiving for my mom who is blind and not very mobile but we had a blizzard here and my sister-in-law had strep throat so I called off Thanksgiving which was rather sad.
Who would be the most likely person to take ur spot
Well with Ram, Rag, and Blam all modding I think they are slowing down debate pace. Semperfortis looks like a tough challenger for sure
What is your strategy to debate that makes you win
I've never done any formal debating and I don't even know the formats, etc. What I do is try to pick opponents who are less formal than I am, I use the DebateART style guide, if opponents don't set BoP or define terms I define them my way, there's a pretty small set of regular judges so I try to think of them as my audience but I also try to write interestingly. I mostly try to pick subjects I care about and actually have an opinion about. I try really hard to think of original arguments and write original sentences so I'm not just rehashing old stuff.

Want me to give you a medal?

I will give you a E-Five if you let me win this one
xD. You’re doin good, man & my number is def coming up. There comes a point when even I am kind of rooting for a lose just to take the pressure off
Anyone can twist history to make someone look more or less than what they were. History doesn't decide a genius.
Is that a question?
Are you a genius, in your opinion? Do you like your 100% winrate?
Most genius talk is really just supremacy talk - unwarranted and uncharitable assertions of superiority. Most people accept that intelligence is hard to define so why wouldn’t high intelligence or super intelligence be at least as elusive? No I am not a genius and fuck all self-assessed geniuses generally. Let history decide who was a genius.
My win rate is like my crack addiction- a cheap and easy high that I know I should put down but can’t seem to.

Mike Judge says he’s open to doing another season so long as he can make the characters older
Do you see yourself as a villain or hero on the website?
Either would be self-delusion. I am a member on the website. I bring no alignment to the game.
What is the reasoning or symbolism behind your username?
here is how I answered in the forums a few weeks back:
ORO which is Spanish for gold but really a simplification from the Latin "aurum" which is gold but also the root of "aura" - shining, glowing, halo'd in the hallowed, holy sense.
magi which is latin for wizard from an ancient Greek theft of the word for followers, believers of Zoroaster (Zarathustra) who was the incredibly elusive and ancient prophet, founder, wizard of Zoroastrianism which influenced belief systems throughout the ancient world (the 3 magi who foretell and glorify Jesus, for example) but also references the Nietzchean character and eternal recurrance but also the sunrise of Strauss as famously opens 2001: A Space Odyssey.
oromagi is imagination by mage, magic imagined, gimmick trickster, sensational sage
Oromagi is "he who awaits the golden light of dawn", of LOGOS, of "in the beginning was the word," the condensation of all Platonic ideals into a single, brilliant apocalypse of understanding, beginning, destruction and re-making.
These days, oRoMaGi is seven letters long. When oRoMaGi is at last but one single letter, a single syllable pronounced OM, day will break and illumination flood the Earth again.
Are you afraid of blamonkey is that why you didn't say his name?
Blamonkey is a very good debater- there’s plenty others I didn’t say. I’m not sure fear is ever the relevant emotion for an online contest.
How does it feel to be best?
I’m glad I got the medal but I’m hardly the best. My tactics have been sneaky. In pure debate, there’s a bunch here that can beat me. Ragnar, bsh, imabench have beat me a few times. Thett3, tej, whiteflame are devastating debaters that have been pretty inactive
