My pronouns are she/they.

I was in Extemp for one year and Interp for two, so I don't have personal experience with debates but I understand the flow of LD debate so there should be no issue.

I have zero tolerance for the belittling of opponents and, in general, zero tolerance for racism, xenophobia, classism, transphobia, and any other form of discrimination you could name. Respect eachother's identities.

If I find there is discriminatory action being taken, that may influence the outcome of the debate, it is up to my discretion.

Best Regards.

I was an APDA (college parliamentary) debater from 2014-18. Between 2016 and 2022, I coached PF, LD, Congress, Extemp, and some other speech events.

Hi! I am a student judge who has a fair amount of experience in LD. Here are a few things to consider:

-I despise spreading. If you do though, send me your case before the round starts.

-I like impact calculus. do that.

-don't be a bad person.

-If you don't speak clearly enough for me to follow, I simply won't flow it and I'll just doc points.

-Try not to be rude/condescending.

-I like framework debates as well

-WEIGH YOUR IMPACTS!!

that's it!

I prefer a traditional style of LD that doesn’t run kritiks or feature spreading. If you do something more circuit style, you have to break it down for me very clearly so I follow you.

I have been judging for 3 years now. I judge pretty traditionally, meaning I judge based off quality of evidence, ones ability to precisely analyze that evidence, as well as persuasion and overall speaker quality. At the end of debate, I like to take into consideration how both speakers responded to one another, as well as the quality of questions asked and how they used those answers to strengthen their own case. Similarly, I judge cross fire based on quality and relevance of questions, as well as ability to answer given questions. As a judge I take a decent amount of notes during debate, but most of my notes will come from after I have heard all of the debate.
