BernieSanders 1775 Report post Posted March 28, 2016 Why is it that the 2 aff's that somehow found ways to keep being ran (no matter how topically) are Space Elevators and Ice Breakers? Like why can't you people just do some even better but equally untopical stuff like "Feeding the poor". 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tommy949 449 Report post Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) What Bernie said^ Space elevators are like what 4 years old! Like every since the space topic, people were obsessed with it! Ever since the TI topic, people were obsessed with ice breakers too Edited March 28, 2016 by tommy949 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KDonald 2 Report post Posted March 30, 2016 New idea. Remember that Cthulhu case used during the oceans topic last year? Run a "Cthulhu in the South China Sea" 1AC under next year's resolution. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TortillaBoy 29 Report post Posted March 30, 2016 New idea. Remember that Cthulhu case used during the oceans topic last year? Run a "Cthulhu in the South China Sea" 1AC under next year's resolution. Engage in diplomacy with China, to then engage in diplomacy with Cthulhu Adv I: More-Than-Modern Warfare V (Skipped IV to not risk affiliation with what a shitty game MW3 was. Also Microsoft branding strategy, must be effective) -Use Cthulhu's powers to mold dreams to give our enemy's nightmares. They will be unable to battle, as they are to exhausted. -Strong arm our enemy's into doing whatever we want. Good, evil, your choice. Adv II: Infinite Power -Cthulhu knows all of the universe. Literally gateway to solve all problems. Also cool shit like teleporters and crazy rice farming could be made from the information we gain from being drinking buddies with the Great Priest himself. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KDonald 2 Report post Posted March 30, 2016 The United States should substantially increase its economic and diplomatic engagement with China in the search for Cthulu and his treasure. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diantonion 30 Report post Posted March 30, 2016 Just a note to anyone thinking about Cthulu, I think that you should note that in Lovecraft's The Call of Cthulu, there are references to "Deathless Chinamen" who live in the mountains of China and know the secrets of the necronomicon. Engaging with them could make a great plan text for y'all's Cthulu aff. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Engaging with them could make a great plan text for y'all's Cthulu aff. From what I can tell, the reference is only 1 line, mentioned as a throwaway to add some 'Eastern mystique' to the tone. Not really a substantial basis for an aff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
