Tim Adams Maybe it's just me Argumentum, but when I go to "Browse" and hit "New" it throws me a string of Python errors.
I have recreated this issue in Google Chrome and Firefox on Windows 7 and Vista on two separate machines and providers.

Here is a URL to the txt document of the error: http://camondraconis.com/argumentumerr.txt

Also to not this only happens in "Standard" mode. When I use the "Quickload" mode it does absolutely nothing.

Argumentum Arguers, the "follow-up" feature has been removed while it's being revamped to deal with the new debate types and otherwise improved. For the few of you that used it, and weren't confused by it, sorry. For the rest, when it's back up it will be easier to understand and use.

that should say something about the intelligence of the users.

Will the arguments that we developed using the "follow-up" feature still be available for folks to peruse or have they been deleted?

Nothings been deleted. Some things may not show up all the time over the next 2-3 days.. It's taking a little longer than expected to complete this major re-design.

Argumentum Argumentum is a personal project of mine, not something I do for work. So there may be more quirky bugs than you're used to.. and if you come across one (or have a suggestion), don't hesitate to post it here. As some of you might know, I take each one personally and try to fix them asap.

Argumentum Folks.. There are a couple new Options you might like (set your "pseudonym" for people who see you as "Facebook User", a "QuickLoad" mode that improves speed, and an "Enhanced" comments mode). Next time you go to the main page ( http://apps.facebook.com/argumentum/ ) you will be able to set them. Try them out, and l...et me know what you think!

I've set it up so the next time you go to the main page, you will see the "options" page. If not, click "options" next to "start a debate"..

I was responding to the proposition involving the five greatest Americans and was unable to edit my initial response. I kept clicking on the "save" button to no avail. I also find your section about inviting friends to comment confusing and rather frustrating. I'm not sure whether they got the message or whether I bothered them with multiple messages to argue. I hop they are still my friends after that fiasco.

"I was responding to the proposition involving the five greatest Americans and was unable to edit my initial response. I kept clicking on the "save" button to no avail."
Ok let me look into it and get back to you.

"I also find your section about inviting friends to comment confusing and rather frustrating."
Which section? Are you talking about the one under the textarea in which you input your argument?... See More

"I hop they are still my friends after that fiasco."
Haha, sorry about that, and I hope so to.

Argumentum Ok folks.. there's a new way to respond to other arguers. From the debate view, after you click 'expand' on an argument you have the option to "tag" that arguer. If you've already made your argument, then it notifies him/her of your existing argument. Otherwise it adds the arguer's name to the [tag friends] box up t...op. So you can tag multiple "strangers" in addition to your friends..

Argumentum Yikes.. some of you may have experienced issues with using the [Argue] tab today.. It's (hopefully) been fixed. Plus now the formatting is correct for "Question" and "List" debates as well. Enjoy.

Argumentum Seems like some of you focus on commenting on other people's arguments.. Some of the posts are really good, and it seems unfair that you don't get points for them. Well within a few days this will change.. stay tuned.

Argumentum Hey folks.. the debate contest system (which has been kind of buggy) has been fixed, and the first credit prizes we're awarded today. Congrats to those of you that won (you should have received a notification)! The prize amounts are determined by you guys, so keep using your credits to sponsor interesting debates (and reward good arguments).

in the future (a month or so), I'm thinking of buying some real prizes that you can trade in your credits for. I was thinking magazine scrips/books.. any suggestions?

Gift cards from places like Borders or Barnes and Noble would be great. That way the winner could select the item he likes.

Argumentum Whoa.. strange problem.. I've fixed it temporarily, but please alert me of any errors you've experienced in the last 10 minutes, and over the next hour or so..
