The game is that the speakers will be chosen to represent the two clubs. After
that is done, the topic will be chosen with no input by the speakers. After
these have been decided, the side to be argued will be assigned by flip of the
coin.
Once again, we're seeking names and the club membership will vote on who will
be the speakers to represent our club in this contest.
