Happy Birthday DebateCraft!

On this day (July 11th), exactly one year ago, DebateCraft went live!

It has been a fun, exciting, and interesting year, and I'd like to take this opportunity to reflect on everything we have been able to accomplish, and thank everyone for their contributions.

I'd like to thank everyone who has done a debate, posted a thread, made a reply, or even simply visited the site to read a post or glance at a debate. Every contribution has added something meaningful to the growth of the site and its community, and I am forever grateful for everything that everyone has been able to contribute.

I'd like to thank Mikal, Savant, Kohai, and Whiteflame, just to name a few of the people that have made substantial contributions to the site lately, and that I have had the privilege to work with in the past year. There are so many others that have made contributions, big and small, but nonetheless meaningful and important to me and this community, and I only wish I could name every single person and all the wonderful ways everyone has been able to impact our past to provide for an even greater future.

The site has a bright future with all of the amazing features that have been added, from the UltraRated debates, Database section, and Big Issues, just to name a few, and I'm super excited for all the potential new ideas to be added in the future.

The site looks amazing, and while there is work to be done, and I'm excited for all the conversations to be had with the community moving forward, I am confident that the foundations are set for an awesome and bright future for DebateCraft.

We have made progress with our marketing aspects via our Youtube Channel and I am excited to keep on exploring new opportunities there and elsewhere. Every DebateCraft member is welcome and encouraged to reach out to DebateCraft admins and moderators to assist with new videos, whether this be making a creative vision a reality, working on a video series concept, and especially doing Live Debates!

Thank you so much to everyone who contributes to this community and to this site. I am super excited for the future of DebateCraft!

Happy Birthday DebateCraft! It has been an amazing first year, and I couldn't be more excited to see what will happen in Year 2!

Let me know your thoughts about the first year. What would you like to see from year 2?

Thank you so much everyone!

Hey Everyone!

Thanks for your continued interest in and support for DebateCraft! We are working on several Youtube projects from debates to political series and gaming movies, and I'm excited for all of them to come out soon. One of these projects includes simple gaming videos of Mike and I playing games, and generally just goofing around. We've already recorded a couple videos of Mike and I debating games, but this is a more casual series of simple gameplay and banter. I'm excited for everyone to watch the first of these videos, DebateCraft Gaming: Mike and Max play Fall guys then Tetris. Please be sure to Subscribe, like and comment. Let us know in the Youtube comments exactly what you thought about this video. Thanks everyone and have a wonderful weekend!

I was already hyped for the season before the Packers got Micah Parsons, but now I'm super hyped.

What are your thoughts and predictions for the season?

I have the Packers winning the Super Bowl of course. 28-21 over the Ravens. Perhaps later in the thread I'll share more of my season predictions.

Go Packers!

Hey DebateCrafters! (DebateCraftians?, DCers?)

It has been a fast moving and incredibly exciting first 2 months. As we near the 2 month birthday of DebateCraft, I just wanted to extend my gratitude towards all of you, and let you know how excited we are to continue to develop DebateCraft.

First of all, I want to thank our team. I'm on the phone with Mikal a couple times a week talking plans. I want to thank Savant, who has been amazing, and getting in a meeting with him every week gets me stoked for our upcoming updates. I want to thank Whiteflame as I'm working with him on our Youtube content, beyond just the moderation aspects he works on already.

I also want to thank David, Ragnar, Bullish, Leaning, and everyone who contributes their time and efforts towards DebateCraft. At the risk of being cliche, I may be the owner of DebateCraft, but this website is yours. The will of the community will shape the direction of the site. Unlike in years past, I fully believe we now have the opportunity to design and create the online debate space into exactly what we want, and I couldn't be more excited to simply be part of the team.

As we move forward, we are excited for the planned updates to the site. Including the recently released Ultrarated debates (Brilliant work by Savant btw), and then future rated-debate seasons; with leader boards, playoffs and eternal bragging rights. We're also excited to see our Mafia community grow, and long term updates that include site currency, opinions/polls sections, more customization for the profiles like badges/titles, and lots of other things!

Currently we are working on our Youtube channel, and will soon begin to reach out to grow our new but enthusiastic community. Speaking of which, check out our Youtube channel: Like, Comment and subscribe now to help our algorithmic growth and online presence. We have 100 DebateCraft users already, if you all subscribe now, we'll hit the ground running with our Youtube content!

We have Youtube content already being worked on, but this is your Website and we need your help. So if you want your ideas, your debates, or anything else on the youtube channel, contact us any time and we will work on your project. In the future we hope to have embedded video/live debates directly on the site, but for now, we want to grow the youtube channel with your creative ideas and assistance.

Once again, I'd like to thank everyone for their enthusiasm and assistance as we grow the site. We are excited to continue to update the site with new features and grow our community. In the near future we have a hype trailer coming soon that I'm excited to share with the community and future members. So get Hyped for the future of DebateCraft, and if you have any ideas, suggestions, or need anything at all, always feel free to reach out to us.

Thanks!
