This means that if we took the same debate to debate.org, then debate.org will win, despite the objective quality of both websites not changing. Personal preference is not really something you can conclude things with. It is useful for making decisions for yourself, but it is subjective. Side: No, (neutral/D.D.O. is better)

I am choosing neutral because of the format difference. The outcome depends on personal preference. Debate.org has a better scoring method as CD's method is prone to trolling. I do like CD's open forum better though as it allows many ideas to be explored rather than just two peoples opinions. You can see multiple view points this way and then make decisions on which one has more merit in context of all the ideas. I prefer to explore ideas rather than to just see who has better debating skills. Side: No, (neutral/D.D.O. is better)
