This reminds me of the game, "Brain Burn' that I've played lots of times with others. Brain burn goes like this. You pick a topic, any topic, and one is pros / one is cons. Then you begin to debate it. The debates can be as fierce as a fistfight, to be honest, and almost as "bloody" without drawing actual blood. Tempers can flare. But, how do we know who lost? Unless the argument is about the holocaust, saying someone / something is from the natzi's, or someone is hitler, or something like that, and you've lost. Also, if you start agreeing with your opponent and parroting their points of view, you've also lost.

It's a game of intelligence and facts, careful word-play and manipulation. All of it rolled into one. The winners are usually the ones who are most able to keep their wits together and keep their emotions in check. It's a fun game, but NOT easy in the slightest. The loser of the game is considered "brain-burned". I.e. they just end up burning out of any arguments they had.
