I did Lincoln Douglas all four years of high school and am accustomed to both traditional and progressive debate. I currently compete in both American Parliamentary and British Parliamentary debate in college. In terms of debate styles I am open to most every form but I specifically look for very clear and solid warranting of arguments and am big on weighing of the debate round. That is to say regardless of if you want to focus on values or value criterion, or focus on the weight of individual arguments, just tell me why it matters and highlight points of clash within the round. In terms of speed I am fairly comfortable with speed, but spreading is not of my highest preference, although I can flow it, just make sure to tag your arguments well.

I did LD for 4 years, there isn’t much that you could throw at me that I couldn’t understand.

If you spread, be clear and tag well or I won’t be able to follow along as well and that might cost you the round if I didn’t hear an argument.

Framework is as important as you make it, if both fall though I will judge based on contentions left standing and how they counter each other. Be civil and have fun. And please impact

If you spread please give me a heads up and if its of the nat quality speed I would prefer you flash me a copy before beginning so I can make sure to follow along properly :)

(I do prefer progressive debate, but debate the way you do best)
