Rule 2.6 debates says

Any Candidate wishing to enter the Debate must post a reply to the Debate post with the phrase “I will enter.” E must then pay the moderator the entry cost, in millions of money, of the debate and . The Candidate then must provide the moderator with a response (via PM) containing up to Length number of words, but not exceeding Length. This pm must begin with the word “Debate” so the moderator can recognize it as such a response. The reply and response must both be completed within 72 hours of the Debate post being posted.

The length of debate 1 was 30. Entry number 1 for debate 1 has a length of 69, making it an illegal entry. As I feel it would be unfair to just give myself all the supporters (Thrawn should’ve pointed out Darknights mistake to him)...

Restart debate 1 with the same venue, length, and issue as before and Thrawn as the moderator but with another 72 hours for candidates to enter. Then proceed as normal with a debate.
