1st Annual William Fremd Tournament of the Novices
2023 — Palatine, IL/US
This is a Fremd ONLY tournament :)
Reminders for debaters:
- Go to your rooms IMMEDIATELY after school ends, don't go to 129. We will have attendance at the end of the day.
- Parings will be released at the end of 8th period.
- Coinflips will be online. After the pairings are released, check tabroom frequently to see if you won the flip and choose your side/order.
- Treat this exactly like a real tournament; judges have been instructed to do the same. Mess around, and watch those speaks fall.
- Read ALL judge paradigms. Additionally, one judge per room will be a "lay" judge. They will not be flowing.
- For PF: After your last round of the day, go to room 129! Do not leave until you are dismissed.
Reminders for judges:
- No oral feedback.
- DO NOT EVER DISCLOSE DECISIONS PRIVATELY/PUBLICALLY.
- Start round as soon as you get to your room, not when everyone gets to the room.
- Comprehensive RFD feedback.
- Give state-level speaker points: 29-30(Solid, not much to change). 28-29 (Pretty decent, but a couple of small things). <27 (Things to work on before state)
- Treat this like you would judge at state.
If anything is wrong, text your room number and problem ---> 224-477-4677.
