Overview: I was a policy debater from KCMO circuit with Pembroke (class of '19). Qualified to NSDA Nats in policy.

General: Feel free to run any args you want, as long as it's clear you understand what you're saying. I'll be able to handle it as long as you provide overviews and explanations. I won't vote for an arg without a warrant/impact. Quality > quantity. Don't think sending me a speech doc is a reason to stop enunciating. Tech > truth. You should be writing my ballot for me. CLASH IS KEY.

Speed: Speed is fine, but keep in mind that computers won't pick up on all of your words if you go too fast. I won't bother flowing if you aren't clear. Keep it simple and go down the flow. Pay attention to what I’m doing (having a computer doesn’t mean you can’t make eye contact). If I stop flowing, it’s because you’re spreading and Zoom is getting angry.

Affs: I don't have much experience with K affs, but I don't have anything against them. I've always prefered policy affs.

Disads/CPs: Love them. Down for anything (e.g. topical CPs) but be ready to debate theory on it.

T: Spicy stuff. Love a good T debate, as long as args are well warranted. Don't just yell "reasonability" at me.

Theory: Even spicier stuff. But don't just spread blocks to overload your speech.

*Ask if you want to know anything else*

IMPORTANT: I will automatically vote you down if you are rude, disrespectful, yell over your opponents, or act sexist/racist/discriminatory in any sort of way. I believe in morality in debate. Don’t be a horrible person just to win, because you won’t win my ballot.
