700 words for all of our points is definitely proving very tricky, but this really is a fun topic for a debate - I just realised I'd only said that in our thread. ;D
Yeah, the problems are definitely that we have too much to say rather than too little! Great topic guys!
Sorry, having issues getting the message out - but if you could please have all your posts up by Thursday the 2nd of October, so we can get the new debates underway!
Yeah, this is definitely a fun topic! ;D But I am having trouble limiting it to 700 words. I've only got 2/3 of the way through, and it's already more than 100 words over... :-/
Editing has never been my strong point. I get too attached to everything I've written. :P Oh well, it's all part of the challenge, I suppose! :P
Thanks Moonfairies for the extension. :)

I've rewritten and we're at about 800 plus the quotes (we're taking the Uni way and not counting them :P). Can't believe I managed to cut 700 words out!
I've finished it now, and it's about 1200 words, minus the quotes. :P I guess it's editing time.
Could we make it 850 words? Pretty Please, with some Chocca on the top?
It would make a lot of people happy...
850 excluding quotes :P [act]whines[/act] surely 850 is close enough to 700?

Haha, it seems we have an agreement on 850! XD Great timing, both of you! :P And I third that request. :) We'd be ever so grateful! :)
Pretty, pretty please? [act]puppy-dog eyes[/act] I think all the teams would appreciate it. And it wouldn't be dis-advantaging anyone, because no one has been able to get the word count down to 700 words yet.
Sorry about changing the subject, but could someone tell me the results for the first round? I seemed to have missed it. Sorry ~:|
I don't think the results have been posted yet.

Yes, I think you're right, avialle. :) Maybe the Moonfairies love both teams so much they couldn't decide? :P ;D
And if anyone's having trouble finding quotes, you're welcome to use any of ours - we've used a bunch of quotes in our discussion. You just have to agree to be a Team Alien minion! ;P (Sorry - I'm in a weird mood! :roll: )
Lol, Zieria.
Uh, a question:
Does it matter which order the teams post in?
Like Team One, then Two, Then Team Three, then team 4 (If they're ready...)?
I don't think so, as we're not actually replying to each other.
Man, I was so tempted to steal your quotes Zieria when I got bored yesterday and started going into other people's threads, but I figured it was unethical :P
Also, I was too lazy to go do more writing...
Dear Moonfairies,
Have you decided to be lenient and grant us the 850 word limit?
Yours Truly,
I believe in Fairies

Oh dear and Almighty Moonfairies,
I echo I believe in Fairies' Statement.
Yours sincerely,
I also believe in Fairies.
Well, since you believe in us, then I suppose we can believe in you guys as well! ;D
But please try not to go any longer than that - we'd hate to have to penalise you for writing up a thesis ;)
Yes!
We love you, Oh precious Moonfairies, the spirits of Obernet!
Mono: [act]nudges[/act] Don't overdo it!
TSC: |:(
Yay! :D Thank you yet again Moonfairies for your leniency! [act]bows down before the Moonfairies[/act]
Mono: ::)
Avialle: [act]joins TSC in looking sheepish[/act]
Dear Moonfairies,
We thank you for the belief you have placed in us. Please accept a dowry of one lunar rock and some Chocca.
Yours Truly,
I Believe In Fairies Even More Than I Did Before.
Availle and TSC: o_O X:-/
Mono: ;)

Yay! Everyone's debates look really good. :) This'll be a tough one to judge. I don't envy the Moonfairies.
This is probably a stupid question, but are we supposed to vote? I have a feeling that's been answered before, but I'm too lazy to look for it. :P
I think we are, Avialle. :)
I hope we are... 8-|
Are we meant to vote in a debate we participated in, or is it only for people who didn't?
