I have over a decade judging debate and four years of debating LD and Policy. While I understand the sport aspects of debate currently in play my judging still relies on proper analysis and links, a strong understanding of the theories you present and your ability to frame the information you are using into a coherent meta-narrative. With a background in applied ethics I do consider myself more of a traditional judge and value an understanding of the philosophy at play.

A stance of assumed ignorance will be taken, only information presented in cases will be taken into consideration when weighing cases.

Note speed when presenting case is fine however keep in mind if attempting to speak in a manner that Opp isn't able that completely comprehend all pts that perhaps I am also unable to follow.
