Stuck picking a motion for class or an argument for game night? Draw one from 90 curated topics — 30 each in school, funny, and classic categories. Teachers use it for impromptu speech practice, debate clubs use it to set rounds, and it settles what friends argue about over dinner. With no-repeats on, each category cycles through all 30 topics before any come back.

Veelgestelde vragen
How many debate topics are there?
90 in total: 30 school topics written for classroom rounds, 30 funny topics for casual groups, and 30 classic motions on long-running questions. Each category is drawn from separately.
Which category should I use with students?
The school category is written to be classroom-safe and age-appropriate. Funny suits parties and icebreakers, while classic covers the traditional, more serious motions you'd expect in formal debate.
Can this set up a whole debate round?
Yes. Draw the motion here, then open the debate pairer to randomly assign opponents and sides. Together the two tools set up a complete impromptu round in under a minute.
Will the same topic come up twice in one class?
Not with no-repeats on. The tool remembers used topics for each category in your browser and only recycles once all 30 topics in that category have appeared.
Can I keep the topics I drew for a lesson plan?
Every draw stays in the history list under the result, and you can copy a topic or export it as CSV to paste straight into your planning document.
