Hello debaters! My pronouns are she/hers.

I debated for 3 yrs in high school, judged for 2 years nonstop and have been coaching for 2 years.

Regarding to my preferences, they are the following:

• I do not see the point in ofttime roadmaps. unless you're taking a different approach, you can save them.
• No spreading.
• I do not mind some agressiveness during crossfires, as longs as you stay respectful.
• I flow everything, so I will notice if you drop something or you dont attack something. Also, I prefer no spreading, since I already have it in written, but do not confuse it with dropping smth.
• I like well structured summary: voting issues and weigh.
• Stay in your time limits, specially in the constructive speech.
• I do not mind use of debate jargon nor fast speaking, tho a prefer a conversational pace.
• Ireally like when the 2nd speaker gets to turn arguments, instead of the classic blocking with another evidence.
• Try to signpost in your rebuttal.

And most important, have fun about it!!!

To make sure to have my vote take into account the following preferences:

constructive speech:

• I'm comfortable with speed, but clarity is key. I'll let you know only once If I can't understand your reading, after that is up to you to make sure to continue talking clearly. ( whatever you mention in the round that I can't understand will not be taken into account)

rebuttal:

Try to make a concise rebuttal. Focus on the key issues and explain why they matter.

summary:

⋅ Weight down your case, but don’t make this your whole summary.

crossfire:

• Lovee aggressive crossfire, you can also throw a little sarcasm, but please maintain respect the whole round.
• I appreciate it more if you answered even if it's wrong than not answering at all.

final focus:

Your final focus should tie everything together. Remind me why you've won this round..

• Please try to remember to do debate protocols.
• I'm open-minded, and I appreciate unique arguments. Don't hesitate to be a bit creative.

have fun!!
