If a participant cancels within the allowed time, the debate is cancelled for all participants, the debate page is closed, and participants receive email notification.

A no-show occurs when a participant fails to attend a debate without cancelling at least two hours in advance.

In the event of a no-show, the session will be forfeited, no compensation will be granted, and the organization may limit future participation in case of repeated absences.
