List - or what's left of the active participants, Below is a good example of a technique that is used to poke fun at and take advantage of an opponent in a debate. If you can get away with it and no one calls you on it you can make your opponent look foolish. The Absolute or Perfect Tactic. When your opponent makes a statement all you have to do is ask him is if what he said was absolutely achievable, true, valid or what ever. If he says yes all you have to do is ask him to prove it. He can't so your opponent looks bad. If he says no I don't do it perfectly you win also because if it can't be done to a high standard then what's the point of doing it at all? There is no defense for it even if he says nothing you win. How many people are left on this list interested in answering questions like this? Not many I would think. Do we have a winner yet?
