Ad Astra Virtual Debate 4 November 14

2023 — Online, KS/US
  1. Open will debate 4 rounds (to make it valid for state qualification), and novice will debate 3. Schedule is included below.
  2. IF you have not entered your judges, or if you are short judges, please get that taken care of by noon tomorrow. Remember- the judges must have an active tabroom account, and they must be able to complete an electronic ballot.
  3. Naming Convention: It is really important that, if it's at all possible, your students and judges change their onscreen names to make it easy for us to move them to rooms when they can't.
    Judges: Judge and last name (Judge Egan)
    Students: EACH ROUND - Name and Room (Egan Open 1, or Egan Novice 3)
    Coaches: Last Name and School (Egan Wichita Collegiate)
  4. Novices ARE limited to the novice packet found at:

  5. EVERYONE needs to check in BY ZOOM at 2:30. Please make sure you make this time with you and your students. Experience tells us that folks who wait until the start time of a round to check in are often the ones who have tech issues. We will open the zoom meeting by 1:30pm so you can jump in and test things a little early, if you like.
  6. Tech issues are COMPLETELY the responsibility of the teams/schools debating. We can't really risk putting the entire tournament behind because of a few folks tech issues.
