MALDREAD
PLEASE READ THE RULES BELOW BEFORE POSTING!!!
Hey everyone,
Welcome to the Pokemon Anime Opposite Opinions Game Thread! This will be a mix of a game, discussion, and debate. The purpose of this thread is to make the Pokemon Anime Discussion community break from their comfort zones and consider and acknowledge new perspectives.
Here is how it will work:
I will start with an opinion. Example:
Maldread - "I thought the Pokevision episode (XY021) was cringeworthy."
The next Poster B has to now counter/refute the above opinion. Even if Poster B personally agreed with what I said, the game's point is to DEFEND the opposite opinion.
Therefore, using the above example:
Poster B - "The Pokevision was NOT cringeworthy because...[yadayadayada]."
Once answered, the Poster B can place a new opinion at the end of the post.
Afterwards, the next Poster C has to refute Poster B's opinion/defend the opposite stance. And it'll so forth proceed as a chain.
-----------------
Here are the rules:
1. When providing a refutation/counterargument, your response must be a minimum of 3 sentences. NO one-sentence spamming.
2. If you are the poster who provided the opinion, you are allowed ONE reply to the individual who countered your opinion. And likewise, if you are the person who gave a refutation, you are allowed ONE final response to the original poster's response.
Therefore, using the above scenario:
Maldread - Pokevision = cringeworthy.
Poster B - Pokevision = not cringeworthy.
Maldread - [Response to Poster B]
Poster B - [Response to Maldread]
That's it. If you still feel strongly about the topic, take it to PMs. This is to prevent the thread from becoming cluttered.
3. If there are multiple responses to a post, then if you are the next poster, please choose only one post in response. I don't mind having multiple chains occurring though. Please don't be offended if your opinion doesn't receive a response.
4. DO NOT twist this thread into what happened in Controversial Opinions. This is NOT your opportunity to keep waiting for opinions that you already disagree with and spam the thread with repetitive rants. That defeats the game's purpose. I implore and challenge you to break free of your fixed viewpoints.
5. DO NOT troll or be overly sarcastic. Example: Don't give an opinion of "Misty's hair should have been blue", and likewise, please don't feed the troll by providing an elaborate defense of why her hair is better as orange.
6. NO shipping. If you want to bring up something like Serena's crush in the context of a larger point like her gaining courage/self-confidence, that's fine, but no shipping otherwise.
7. Be respectful and follow all forum rules. The mods have approved of this thread, but will have no qualms about shutting this down. Know that we probably won't ever get another chance to have an "Opinions"-esque thread.
-----------------
I don't know if this thread will become as popular as Controversial Opinions or Versus Thread, but it could definitely become good if y'all follow the rules and take the challenge of considering opinions that you strongly disagree with.
Have fun!
