Congress rules:

• Docket order will be set. Each set of legislation is to be debated in order and only during the assigned session unless tournament permission has been given.

• We will have 3-hour sessions that utilize a base-2 speaking system in varsity (novice houses may choose to use base 2, but it it not required). This means each students can give a max of 2 speeches per session and every student is also guaranteed minimum of 2 speeches should they want to speak. 

• If any session runs out of legislation, please use the tournament legislation.

• Finals will be converted into a 3rd session depending on numbers.

• If there is a finals session, precedence will be randomized prior to the start of the round.
