I love kritiks, theory, and progressive debate!! I’m good with speed, just signpost. Topicality is my first voter unless you tell me why it shouldn't be. I will vote for most things as long as you warrant your argument and tell me why you're winning. That being said, I am really not a fan of PICs. Please give me voters/do impact calc- tell me why you're winning. If you have specific questions, they are all in my paradigm under the same name.
