I am a policy coach at heart. My favorite debates will not take us down a rabbit hole that has nothing to do with the topic. I can flow spreading but would like the tags and sources made clear. If you point out a card over and over, I will want to see it. In policy I am a blend of both stock issues and policy.

Stock Issues

Make sure taglines are clear

Do not spread too fast - evidence matters and I need to hear it to understand your case

Do not like topicality arguments-fine to mention if you feel argument is non-topical, however do not waste excessive time and allow judge to determine if the argument is or is not topical.

Do your best to present on case arguments. If Neg ignores the AFF and presents only generic attacks, you will lose points, please debate the AFFs case.

If you run a K or counter plan, make sure you do you fully vet and present your arguments. These options require more convincing.

Prefer you not to go nuclear unless it is necessary.

I absolutely cannot judge spreading. My brain does not absorb argument that fast, so slow down for the old folks.

I do not have a great deal of experience with CX so an emphasis on tag lines helps.

I understand better when you explain the harms and solvency of your plan. Same goes for counter-plan.

I appreciate debate on topicality, but please don't waste a great deal of time there...especially on repetitive argument.

I clearly want to see that the debate is concerning a moral issue- not one of policy. Do argue value and criterion. Credibility of sources may outweigh more recent dates. Do not get sucked into your opponents spreading by thinking you have to address every argument he/she brought up...I probably didn't understand them all anyway. You will win more points from me by adhering to my request for reasonable speed.

Convince me.
