| 787423 | 2009-07-03 01:35:00 | Um.....just before we kick off, is this the five minute argument, or the full half hour...?? :) Arguments will need to be substantial, but there will be an upper word limit (of 2000 words) per person. A 5 minute speech is around 600 words depending on your speaking style. |

| 787424 | 2009-07-03 01:36:00 | Note also that the word limit includes any quotes. | Erayd (23) | ||
| 787425 | 2009-07-03 01:39:00 | I should emphasise that 2000 words is an absolute limit. There is no need to actually go up to that many words - I would expect most people would go up to around 1000 words at most. | somebody (208) | ||

| 787428 | 2009-07-03 02:19:00 | An interesting point of view here as to format I came across while doing the research. This is for students and assumes a Professor in a teaching role. www.dushkin.com I make no comment at this time as to the material but it may be relevant. |

When I announce the topic and teams, I will also provide some rough guidelines on what is expected from each team. |

| 787431 | 2009-07-03 05:04:00 | Look - I told you once!! Thus far we don't have an argument ,an argument is a connected series of statements to establish a definite proposition. |
