A very enjoyable read, an effective style from both participants with relevant points raised makes this one a tough call.
I feel I have to say UA seemed to be running out of points towards the end, perhaps this would have been remedied had the debate finished but I have to judge it as it is.
Subtemperate's countering was exceptionally good and dealt with all the issues well, which also feeds through to the persuasiveness of his side of the debate.
Given the debate description in Aztec's original post I don't think I can fault either debater on relevancy although if I had one gripe with both it would be the occasional spelling errors, but I guess that's being very picky.
