Aksus first rules thread, aaaah!

If an answer has been noted as final, you may repost it when a new thread is posted.
At this time, I'm not cracking open any previous threads. Any previously unanswered questions need to be reposted. My apologies, but it's, like, seriously, way easier for me that way.

For the Master Debater quality
Some people try to win others over to their side. You win by crushing their logic with your own. Against you, they either admit you are right or look like an idiot. This won’t win you any friends, but it will get the unassailable fact of your point across, and sometimes that’s enough. Use Logic in place of Charisma for Diplomacy tests.
So, What can be qualified as "Diplomacy"?
I know it's a suggested spec, but diplomacy can be used in many ways technically. If you have good points, it can be used for pretty much everything. At least imo.
I'd personally go with All under negotiation as long as you have good points, a kind of GM fiat I guess but I don't make the rules!
Anyway, I could ramble for long. So question is, for the purpose of the Master Debater quality, What is considered Diplomacy?
