Hi, I'm Theo! I use any pronouns and I have debated LD at Marlborough (3 years).

General

please add me on the email chain: theokim27@marlborough.org

tech> truth

Both sides should be flowing

I'm fine w any speed as long as you are clear, share your case doc, and also make sure to signpost and read all the cites. I will say clear if you are going too fast and I can't understand you, if I say that please slow down just a little more.

Off-time roadmaps are a must for me, so please do that.

I'm good w flex prep and I will flow everything/as much as I can in round including CX.

Please don't be offensive - I will drop your speaker points if you disrespect your opponent or say anything racist, homophobic, xenophobic, etc. Debate should be fun and everyone should be able to enjoy it.

TLDR: WEIGH. Be ready to over-explain things. Lots of judge instruction. I absolutely LOVE weighing so try and make the most compelling weighing arguments.No tricks or friv theory.

LD:

Pref:

Honestly anything as long as you describe it well enough. Just please NO TRIXS

LARP/Policy:

You should have clear warrants and have a solid impact calc for each of your arguments.

CPs: Open to all as long as you don't have millions of CPs and also ones that don't have a link to the aff or a net benefit. Please have solid solvency advocates!!

DA:Clearly explain each step in the link chain.Read whatever DA you want and organize your 2NR

Ks:

Since I debate var I've seen some Ks and I'm good w security ks, set col, fem Ks, etc. Please show the clear link for the K to the aff and also still try and engage in the aff's content. I haven't seen many phil arguments but as long as you're clear enough I should be fine.

Theory/T:

DEFINITIONS ARE A MUST - please also show why ur interp is better.

Speaks:

I'll give a starting 28.5. Don't be offensive and make strategic arguments. If you make any offensive arguments, I'm giving you the lowest possible speaks. Please speak loud and clear. If you're a quiet speaker please try and speak as loud as you can and if you're a spreader as I said, I'm fine until I say "clear". If I tell you "clear" multiple times or say I can't understand you and you don't listen I will dock a significant amount of points. If you enter in some jokes maybe I'll give you 0.5 more points.

FW:

I'm down for a good FW debate just really be specific and push hard on the topic if you're gonna go for the framing argument.

Please:

HAVE FUN!! Debate is all about learning experiences, don't take my ballot to heart after all I'm prob just a stranger to you and you have so many more chances to improve.

Don't read tricks, I said it before and I'll say it again. I've never encountered them yet (thank god) but it doesn't seem like a good way to spend the debate on.

Feel free to ask or email me questions before or after round!

PF:

I am HIGHLY uneducated in PF, policy, etc. so please be clear and I will try and evaluate the best I can. Just treat me as if I'm a lay judge for this T-T. I love weighing so weighing and judge instructions should be the bulk of your final speech.

Hello my names Edward; debated for Loyola

_______________________________________

Joke paradigm:
Hello, I am a very experienced judge and am sure my decisions are always correct.
T shells are the best type of arguments because they complain
As John Dockwiler Gonzalez once said, Trix debate is the best any other debate I will down vote you....
Disclosure: Edward.min@lhsla.org

Real paradigm

Disclosure: Use speech drop or email me @ edward.min@lhsla.org

Speaks ova:
Your starting speak for me is 27.5 lowest I'll give you is 25 and highest is 30

If you make me laugh i'll give you 1-2 extra points depending how you do it

You can lose speaks if you abuse your opponent too much.

LD: All arguments are fun more specific bellow; not exactly the best judge for trix and K's but I can handle it
Spreading: sure as long as u disclose
Trix: Line by line it please :)
K's: Cool ????
Theory/T: Love them favorite types of argument
FW: Nice and simple
Standing or sitting; I do not care if you sit or stand


Do not:
Be nit picky if your opponent doesn't read the tag don't press them on it, I'll keep it in the back of my head.
Too abusive: eg. if it's your opponent is a newer debater don't read 5 offs, spread, 3 t-shells and FW (Like I may or may not have done)

Public Forum: be clear in you speech

Congress: Congress is cool; just don't be overly aggressive

If you have any questions email me; I will disclose right then and there, if I forget remind me.
