WODC registration closes today.

Hi all,

Registration for the third World Online Debating Championships will close TODAY, so what's it going to take to get you to commit? Promises of untold fame and fortune? Guarantees of everlasting happiness? Certain knowledge that at the end you'll be a whole lot smarter than when you started out? One of those is definitely true. The others, who knows. Oone thing that's certain is if you don't register at all none of this will be possible.

To register send $US20 per person or $100 per team (remember, teams can have unlimited number of participants) to wodc@debatewise.org via Paypal. If you can't use Paypal let me know. If you can’t afford it let me know. If you need more time let me know.

Thanks to everyone who has registered. To everyone else - come on, we want you to join us.
