The liberal pinko atheists :p at Internet Infidels actually have a nice setup for formal debates.

The participants names are in the thread title, And they establish a "peanut gallery" thread (linked in the first post of the debate thread) elsewhere so those not participating can post comments and/or questions. I also like how it is a moderator that creates the first post, listing the why's who's what's of what is going to follow.
The list of rules seems too much to me, but they've obviously put some thought into it.
