-The first speech on each side is a constructive and should be used to present the case for/against the resolution. The Neg should also use its constructive to respond to the Aff case.

-THE LAST THREE SPEECHES SHOULD NOT CONTAIN ANY NEW ARGUMENTS but instead should be used to make refutations and summarize the round. The very last Aff speech is not allowed any new refutations or arguments unless addressing a new response made by the Neg in their last speech.
