Hmmmmmmm, let me think, I will have to bookmark this! I already have some ideas rolling around in my head.
-
I was getting kinda worried when I was reading the options and ALL of them I agreed on. BUT THEN I GOT TO NUMBER 6 AND I WAS LIKE YAY! I can work with that.
-
THIS IS TOO UNFAIR, ONLY 1 OPTION I DISAGREE WITH LOL!
-
Hmm, for a minute I thought what the hell is this because I couldn't find any option I disagreed with, but then I got to the last option.. I suppose thats the one i don't agree with lol.
-
Wow, I think you will get a lot of enteries. I have to agree with a lot of other people that the last one is the only one I disagree with.
~*Destiny*~ -
I would love to disagree but that would mean lying about how I feel about any and all of the options you have offered. The contest idea is alright, but I would suggest if you try this again choosing things people are more likely to DISAGREE with than agree. Good luck with your contest.
-
well dang, I already read this one...would love to disagree but can't really find an option to do so ... sure don't feel like lying...lol
I wish you much luck, hope you find the debate your seeking.
hugs, Suzi -
WELL DARN IT THAT SUCKS! but then again its cool i have alot in common with so many on here... NEXT CONTEST....WRITE ON ROCK ON READ ON!!!!!!!!
-
Great contest, I hope you get alot of great entries. Happy judging and the best of luck!
-Abbie- -
I would love to enter, but tragically I agree with all your statements. :/ Well, good luck in judging. I hope the entries are many, but not so many to over work your, and I hope the are all full of amazing and satisfying content, but not too hard to judge. Thank you for taking your time to host a contest that promotes debating and defence of personal opinions with your time, points, and dedication.

I can not find one of these opinions that I disagree with so will have to bow out this time. Look forward to the next contest. Thanks for hosting and giving poets another challenge.
-

-
I have a feeling you are going to be swamped with entries...it will be tough judging. I like your unique idea. Good luck with your contest...Trina
-
I will enter one something though there isn't much I oppose.
-
hmmm, i don't know, if you beg me I might enter, maybe. Beg me......do it now!!! I'm just joking, good premise for a contest, but if you beg me, maybe I'll enter. Just joking. Again.
-
lol I'd enter, but I agree with pretty much everything!
-
Two thumbs up
Real eyez, this is a fantastic idea for a contest. I will do my best to enter. There is one that caught me attention. -
Yes, I think I can disagree with that last option. That is a good one. Still have lots of time to enter. Thanks for letting me know about this last option.
-

-
