kytrigger said:Hey, is there a set time Tuesday when debating ends, or at least a gneral time frame? I was just wondering in case I want to make a closing argument whether I should do it Monday night, or if I will have time Tuesday...
Generally, debating will be announced as over when I get into work on Tuesday, which is around 8-9 AM Pacific Standard Time. There will at times be some exceptions made. If I notice a pretty heated argument is still continuing, I might make an announcement to the effect of continuing debates for another hour or two....or, if I get in and notice someone made a post in the wee hours of the night and his/her opponent couldn't possibly get in a rebuttal, I'll hold off. Both scenarios have happened; but, for the most part, debating is pretty over by Tuesday morning.
The worst thing, I find, that happens is someone gets his debate in on Friday...waits, with no response. Then, Monday night or Tuesday comes by, and their opponent makes a last minute entry. Personally, I hate when this happens to me. So, I ask that everyone get in their opening arguments as early as possible, and try to have closing arguments done on Monday night.
