Important Points (PF/LD):
Please always make sure to address framework clash, weigh args, and do impact calculus - but make sure to link your impacts back to FW.
Do not spread (especially in online rounds). I will tolerate fast debate, but articulation is key - if you're trying to spread and you're slurring, I will stop flowing. Debate is about articulating and presenting arguments against your opponent with myself as the adjudicator, and if I don't understand what you're saying, then it will not help anyone.
Don't read new arguments in speeches you shouldn't be (I take point of order very seriously).
I'm fine with theory, but I usually won't vote on theoretical abuse unless either (1) your opponent drops the shell, (2) fails to provide counter-interp/standards, or (3) doesn't prove how your interp is bad for debate.
Flex/running prep is fine. I do not flow CX.
Any other questions, ask before round. Otherwise, have fun and always be respectful to each other. :)
