Rules

There are 5 rounds:
1. The First Word (all 4 panelists) - Two recent events are discussed. The panelists give detailed arguments and can also jump back in for rebuttals.
2. Buy Or Sell (all 4 panelists) - Rapid fire round. The panelists are asked to buy or sell (be for or against) three different concepts. Speak too much and you get MUTEd.
3. Out Of Bounds (3 panelists) - This talks about one serious story. Few points given here.
4. Showdown (2 panelists) - Scores are reset to zero. Each panelist has 5 lines to make a better argument about a subject. Best of 3.
5. Face Time (winner) - The winner of the showdown and therefore winner of that particular episode gets 10 lines to talk about anything he/she wishes to discuss.
Points are awarded for good points, and taken away for wild tangents.
If you go too much off topic, you might be MUTEd. If you get a MUTE, you can't talk until another panelist has spoken.
If you have the least amount of points at the end of Buy Or Sell or Out Of Bounds, you will be eliminated for the rest of the episode.
