"Welcome to the first Augustan judge debate. You know the rules, whoever debates the best will be the next president. And whoever debates worst will be banished..." - schmoyoho, probably

Please debate. We didn't give you an extra 24 hours for nothing. You'll also be banished if you don't debate.

Sorry for the delay, technically because this is a replacement for a seat, the campaign period had to last 48 hours.

The candidates who are on the block to be the banished are...

DCHERO - u/DangerousBye

GamePhobic - u/GamePhobic

Pirater - /u/ActualPirater

waffle4breakfast - /u/multirobit2
