MW won on points, unsurprisingly, but failed to land the sort of knock-out punch I hoped for. As everyone expected RSA to loose, just remaining on his feet til the end is almost like a victory for him :cry:

Mike may have won, but we lost. Darkstar was not crushed and his wall of ignorance appears to be unbroken :x

Who honestly thought that RSA could be destroyed in a nice "knock-out punch" style victory? It's not in his character. It's exactly what the whole "Black Knight Syndrome" is all about. I'm not suprised.

Mike demolished his entire argument in one blow. It's just RSA wouldn't admit it. He's deranged and couldn't let it go.

Mike won the war but we all lost due to RSA's posts.

If there was an option "Mike won AND we all lost due to massive brain damage", it would get 100% of the votes.

Wong shouldn't have debated him. RSA had nothing to lose, Wong had nothing to gain. anything less than Wong single handedly gangbanging him made for victory, all he had to do was stay standing to lose nothing.

There is absolutely no doubt that Wong won this hands down...but the Wall of Ignorance wa snot broken and we had to suffer through the dernaged ravings of a lunatic. The only othe rupshot of this debate is that I am now firmly convinced that Dstar is actually mentally ill.

You thought he might be sane before? Frankly, he'd already proved it. The debate only provided us with a listing the symptoms.

his posts got so long that it became impossible to reply to his points cause they were so hard to pull out of the garbage. Incidentally the first chapter of a book I'm writing(13 pages) uses les kbytes then his replies do.

This sounds like the recent Iraqi "elections".

I voted for a tie. The only reason I voted for a tie was because Darth Wong flat out called the Special Editions "historical revistionism", which is not the way George Lucas views them. Other than that, Darkstar's defense of the MCR or the Superlaser Effect was not good enough to win an uphill battle against the classic theory.

If we could only use the Wall Of Ignorance for good, perhaps some sort of shield against ICBMs.

Have to admit, that troubled me as well, whether you like it or not, it is the true story now.
