I'm dabbled in a lot styles of debate including LD, PF, and currently do WSD, was mediocre tbh lol, and I'll flow as best as I can.
General:
1. Weighing is so important, cannot stress this enough. I prefer comparative weighing more than anything rather than empty buzz words. Weighing before final focus is nice, v substantive.
2. Clarity > Speed. Honestly, not a big fan of speed in general, but especially with online tournaments bc my wifi can be a little wack and too difficult to keep up with over vc. If you're going to be spreading, send the speech doc over email (madeline.ou@gmail.com) or discord.
3. Extensions should be down all the way from fiat to impact, it's not enough to quickly say the tagline again, reexplain the warranting.
4. Frontlining should be down in first summary, esp. with the extra minute. For second rebuttal, I'm chill with not frontlining everything, but turns are a must.
5. Theory is fine, not the biggest fan, but if you're going to be running it, make sure you believe in the theory you're running and make it take a large portion of your time. I won't be looking towards frivolous theory like citation theory, ect.
6. don't be rude and say morally wack things , p self explanatory lmao
also for speaks generally (28-30) pretty chill with speaks
