this is actually really cool. thanks for sharing this with us. daspletosaurus is actually my second favorite tyrannosaur and ive always wondered how they coexisted with gorgosaurs 

PRIMAL KING - Wow! Blast it all! I wish I could visit the States more often! I'd love to visit your museum - it looks wonderful! :)

That's your calculation, then it isn't official. It's fine for me.

Chilantaisaurus was an enigmatic Theropod. It's thought to be a Neovenatorid. 

Carnosaur, I scaled from Neovenator. I got ~ 5 t. So I guess 4~5 t is a good size range.

GOJIRA2K and SCI-FI KING25 - You're both doing a fantastic job! Keep it up! :)

It's actually fun to debate like this.

Wow, this is very fun to read so far, guys!!! When I come back from my weekend vacation I'll make sure to see who won!!!

Yep. Its a really cool and underrated museum, you should do some research on it. ;)

Interesting(he says as he nods slowly and stokes an imaginary beard).

Really? Did not know that(obviously, lol)

TYRANT KING - You didn't just try, you excelled! Just because you weren't the victor doesn't mean you didn't present an exemplary job! I'm extremely impressed with the work that both you and UCMP 118742 produced! Fantastic job! :)

CARNOSAUR - You know, I've never actually heard of Chilantaisaurus? If you don't mind me asking, to what family of Theropods did it belong and what did it look like? It sounds interesting! :)

This is extremely fun! I like the cordiality and intelligent by-play evidenced by both speakers - very excellent! :)

But, the new Spino can still do pretty well in the water. He could definitely give him a run for his money. Here's the answer to the first scenario:

The New Spino has a grip on the Old Spino's neck. He's struggling to get free. He takes his long claws and slashes him in the neck and he lets go.

Here is the answer to the second scenario:

Both Spinos are in the water. They are slowly circling each other in the water. The New One is adapted to water, but so is the Old One. The New One swims towards the Old One, but the Old One quickly heads to shore. The New Spino grabs the Old One's tail and starts to pull him towards the water. The Old One turns around and slashes the Old One, who then lets go. The Old One takes this advantage and bites the New One and kills him by piercing his windpipe.

Man! I want tk say so much in this debate but I can't.

carno, I won't tell............

True, but how about this scenario:

Old Spino bends over to bite New Spino's neck, but New Spino outmanuvers and bites Old Spino's neck. Or what about if they got in the water, which New Spino is more adapted to? Maybe New Spino can use its smaller size to its advantage.

[Also, I think I'm doing pretty good for a pretty one-sided debate. :)]

But Spinosaurus was a much better fighter. Being on to legs, and not four gave it the better advantage. 2014 Spino probably couldn't reer up for long. It was too top heavy. It would have a lot of back pain if it tryed to stay that way. 1915-2013 Spino was already reered up, making it much bigger, height-wise and more intimidating. It could give a good slash before 2014 could. And could probably take Carcharodontosaurus, with its claws. I'm not saying he could kill him in one swipe, but could do some serious damage.

The Spinosaurus was the king of its realm, but it hunted fish, allowing it to coexist with the mighty Carcharodontosaurus with little fighting. However, Spinosaurus was very slender and agile, allowing it to outmanuver attacks, and it could easily win a battle if it led its opponent to water. Rearing up on its hind legs, it could kill its enemies in more ways than one.

I realised I missed Chilantaisaurus. It was roughly to 11~12 m long, with a mass estimated to be between 2 and 6 t. I'll add it soon.

What I don't like is that you guys immediately jump to conclusions about spinosaurus. What I mean is that as soon as the new spino model came out everyone here except for a select few(including myself) strongly disagreed. The old spino model was never truly excepted and it ghastly been around since 1915. But this one comes along and everyone jumps on the quadruped spino bandwagon even though there's no true evidence. Yes 40% of the skeleton was found and yes 20% was added but really some of that was from suchomimus. Why would you take bones if one animal and put it into another animal and think that its accurate just cause they are closely related. You also have to put in to consideration that 40 to 50% isn't found, that is a lot. I am not arguing.

Thanks, I guess. Explain what you mean.

@ UCMP You can't, this goes to EVERYONE except for the two that are debating:)

Spinosaurus Aegypticus (1915-2014) (For this debate, I will be using the Planet Dinosaurus version as an example.) (I amy use some examples that might have some contreversy to this version. Please don’t get upset or get mad over what I say here.)

     Spinosaurus was a massive beast. At 50-60 feet long, 16 feet tall (22 feet to top of sail), and 9 tons, it was the largest predatory dinosaur to walk the earth. It lived in present-day Egypt. It had a long crocodile-like head, long arms with three long, sharp claws on each hand, and a tall 6-foot spine on it’s back.

     It was originally discovered in 1915, by paleontologist Ernst Stromer. When he found the bones, he theorized that it stood upright, such as the original version of T-rex was. The remains were put on display in a museum in Munich. During WWII the bones were destroyed. All that remained were the pictures and drawings done by Stromer.

     It was originally thought to feed on massive sauropods or hadrosaurs, but its jaws were more specialized for catching fish. Its cone-shaped teeth were perfect for catching and holding a fish, the long claws were used to rip up the fish.

     A similar Spinosaur, Suchomimus, was found in Egypt as well. It was used to recreate Spinosaurus, as well as Baryonyx, another Spinosaur, and crocodiles.

I'm so tempted to say something about this one :3

As I've already said, Celeste is undescribed, so it's unreliable, while animals like MUPCv-95 and SMG din-1 are described. 

I asked it you because I said in the first post that Celeste is unreliable, the you said "there is actually a 13 m T.rex", and I thought you were talking about another specimen.

So hyped! Can't agree better than RexFan's words

UCMP is the winner!!!!!!!

well,I tried.

Oh, this should be very neat! I can't wait to see some of the counterpoints and data! :)

The honest and most striking fact is that Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus was an ancient super predator that likely weighed within the range of seven to ten tons and was almost certainly the top killer of its era. Regardless if it reigned over land or water, this creature was, from what I've been able to deduce from various articles and reports, a nightmare to anything it encountered. With regards to my personal feelings on the matter, I honestly feel that Spinosaurus was a magnificent example of our world's ability to create astounding works of biology - a true and resoundingly stupendous being the likes of which our planet will likely never again see. That animal, along with everything from its era, is lost in time. Yet it continues to live on within our imaginations - and there it can be so many different things for each of us. We each see this great animal as we want - honor it with our speculations and excitment; and in so doing, we breathe life into it! Nothing is more fantastic than bringing a life-form back from the dark of extinction through the use of imagination - regardless of how we see it in our mind's eye.

TYRANT KING and UCMP 118742 - Wow! You both did an exceptionally excellent job! The amount of information and confirmation you both brought to this debate was extraordinary! Utilizing the Cambridge Judiciary Scale, I would rank UCMP 118742's debate performance at 8.6 out of 10, with TYRANT KING coming in at a close 8.1 (these numbers are based on an ad-hoc percentile scale that takes into acount debate length, cordiality, clear word usage and accessibility to the audience).

    In the end, though it is simply my opinion and should in no way be taken as fact, I believe UCMP 118742 edged out to the lead in this debate.

    You both have provided an exceptionally fantastic debate for our consideration! Thank you so much! :)

This is an interesting colour scheme... Nothing terribly suggestive of anything with Lego JP, But Of course, No one knows it's an Easter egg to a new game until It happens. 

Actually Rex Fan, the museum where I work (The Museum of Ancient Life) is home to the biggest collection of dinosaur fossils. We beat out the American museum of Natural History a couple years back. Also, we have the only tovosaur mount in the world. We even have a "Stan vs Stan" exhibit.

Aw, Carnosaur, as always, very good and valid points!!!
