The last time I debated/judged was in 2021, so please go easy on me. Clarity >>> speed. Run what you are most comfortable with, and unless it's super out there, I will understand. IMPACT CALC IS KEY. It's timeless and foolproof! I have no other specific comments regarding args.

Have fun, be respectful, ask questions, and be a good human :)

If you have any questions, want to know how you are doing/how you did in a debate, or whatever else, please just ask me or email me at aishani.n.saxena@gmail.com.

For PA and Limited Prep: Clear Structure, projection, and is the speaker's voice their own.

For Interp: Character Development is number 1 for me. Next is does the interper follow dramatic structure. In humor # 1 thing is: does it make me laugh? Second, does the story make sense?

For Debate: Emphasize impacts. Delivery before speed. If arguments are clear and logical, then speed works for me, but speed isn't an end in itself; it's purpose is to get more arguments in, i.e. if you aren't giving more arguments for the opponent to refute, then why talk incredibly fast? Also your arguments need to be grounded in reality because I am well versed in logical fallacies.
