Would this make for an interesting story?

I thought of a new storyline for a comedy I'm thinking of writing...

It's like You-Gay-Hoe, but instead of the cards being monsters, it's a debate.

Imagine this: Someone slams down a card on the playing field, and shouts "I SUMMON OCCAM'S RAZOR!!!!" Then someone flips their face down card up, and it's... DUN DUN DUN! THE CONSTITUTION!

So it's liked a card game, but it's a card game of debating. I think it would turn out to be an interesting, yet very comedical, story.

I reckon you could probably get a skit out of it but I don't think you'd get a long story from it.

Yeah, that's what I meant. I mean, how many novels are strictly comedies?

Nice idea, obviously needs some work but has definite potential. However, I think that it would be wasted as a story. I think it would be better realised as a comedy skit. Quite monty-pythonesque really. Witty, original, yet also completely riduculous.

I suggest you write it as an Uncyclopedia (http://www.uncyclopedia.org) article. God knows we need some quality stuff around there...
