TBGs

Definitly not TBGs.
I guess if its about something like politics/religion, R&P. If its about a game, R&P too. Something like browser (IE vs FF vs Chrome vs Opera etc) or OS (Mac vs PC), R&P. Only if its about something like MC, you would put it in MC (lol?), so my guess would be RP, unless I didn't guess the topic right.

Re: Would I post a debate topic in the:
I would say that there isn't a place for debate topics in the Scratch forum. This may be deliberate (to prevent heated arguments). If it is on a programming subject it may conceivably go under "Advanced Topics". If it is directly related to something you're making, creating, reading, or playing, you might get away with it in their respective topics. But, in general, I'd think that posting such a topic would be inappropriate for the Scratch community, which, in my opinion, is about collaboratively finding solutions (or the "right answer") rather than competitively (probably the wrong word, but I hope you get what I mean)

Re: Would I post a debate topic in the:
Depends what the topic is.
If it's like "apples vs. oranges" I suppose you could make a game out of it if you change the topic frequently.
If it's like "mario vs. sonic" you could put it in RaP.
It just depends on the topic.

Something like Macs vs Windows or Firefox vs Chrome could go in advanced topics but it would better fit in RaP

So, what I'm trying to do is a game, like you organize teams and you debate whether it's apples vs. oranges, or something like that. Each team has 5 turns, and they take turns. After the 10 turns, a new debate begins.

If this is a game, then this certainly should go in the TBG's because the regular scratch forums weren't made for games.

I'd have to agree with MoreGamesNow, political/religious topics aren't allowed on the Scratch forums.

Like the 2012 U.S. presidential election topic?

Exactly.
@topic: Yeah, from what it sounds like, I think it would best belong in the TBG's.

It was closed, but then they promised to not argue about what side they're on or whatever
