I prefer competitors to speak clearly. "Spread" at your own risk. This isn't about who makes the MOST arguments but who makes the best and clearest arguments, both attacking their opponents' arguments and defending their own! Debate is about listening and responding, so please don't waste time during the debate trading cases. If you use a "kritik" or "k" on neg, understand I think you are putting yourself at an immediately disadvantage because you are avoiding debating the topic at hand. If you are going to ask for "cards," the time it takes comes from your prep time or questioning time (or both); I'm not extending the debate to spend time looking for cards.
