Hi! I'm Brian, and I'm a student at Cypress College. I've had 3 years of experience in Highschool IE's (Impromptu, Extemp, Duo), and I was my school's Impromptu/Extemp Captain for 2 years. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me before your rounds! I have been doing debate for 3 years in my high school and I am comfortable with LD, I have also judged college debate for my 2nd year of college, judging PF, Exempt, and LD.

make it a fun round. do it for the memez lol.

I have experience in public forum

if you wanna run something crazy, I’m all for it. Just make sure it makes sense in one way or another.

PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW. DON'T JUST SAY "the world is gonna end if we don't do whatever it is" EXPLAIN H O W.

I dont flow cross fire. its for your benefit.

have fun with it

dont be disrespectful.

Experience:

5 years LD, 3 years PF - BOHS and Honor '19, Berkeley '22

Important Points (PF/LD):

Please always make sure to address framework clash, weigh args, and do impact calculus - but make sure to link your impacts back to FW.

Do not spread (especially in online rounds). I will tolerate fast debate, but articulation is key - if you're trying to spread and you're slurring, I will stop flowing. Debate is about articulating and presenting arguments against your opponent with myself as the adjudicator, and if I don't understand what you're saying, then it will not help anyone.

Don't read new arguments in speeches you shouldn't be (I take point of order very seriously).

I'm fine with theory, but I usually won't vote on theoretical abuse unless either (1) your opponent drops the shell, (2) fails to provide counter-interp/standards, or (3) doesn't prove how your interp is bad for debate.

Flex/running prep is fine. I do not flow CX.

Any other questions, ask before round. Otherwise, have fun and always be respectful to each other. :)
