DECLARATION OF INTELLIGENCE Not everybody's sword is as sharp as their wit. Hosted in the City-State of Andor is the Declaration of Intelligence, a debate between individuals on a topic that neither side is aware of. It is designed to test your intelligence as well as your ability to adapt to unknown circumstances. Multiple debates will be going on, with one person on each side of a given debate topic, and each participant has 10 posts after their introduction post to state their case. At the end of those 10 posts, the debate is done.
There will then be a poll posted where members then vote on who they think made the best case for a given debate. Votes should be made based on the content of the debater's posts and how well they present their side, not "whose FC do you like better". The debater with the most votes is considered the winner of the debate.
This is a roleplaying event, so there is no combat. Unless you consider harsh words attacks. Those who happen to have Educated skills may have an edge if it pertains to their topic.
What do you get for winning the debate? Well aside from stretching your mind and vocabulary, you are awarded an Educated skill relevant to the topic you have debated on and 200 Gold.
POST HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE DEBATE.

"My Alma Mater has asked me to attend this as a representative. I have had very little opportunity to debate a man of knowledge such as yourself and relish the chance, considering I have found my prior encounters with the Academy's graduates and staff... underwhelming. I wish good luck to you, Mr. V'errmite."

"These kids need teaching of the world, they are young and naive"
Nakai will teach these youngsters, well that depends on what they want him to talk about at least!

I dunno what's the point of me entering when the Chief Mage is already entering...but I guess it's better than cleaning duty.

"Not too sure how I ended up here, but the birds are chirping, it's a bright summer's day, and I haven't called people names in a good while. Guess I'll give it a whirl."
