Open your calendars and mark August 5 to 11 2012 with the words “Belgrade” and “awesome”. You can book your flights and advertise Belgrade Euros 2012 in your debate societies as one of the best ever.

At least that is the impression I got when checking my fellow debater’s Facebook status updates. An avalanche of superlatives buried everything not related to this year’s Belgrade Open.
