I am a high school debater who has done multiple years of PF. Please include me on the email chain at evelynkung08@gmail.com
PF:
general:
I am primarily a tech judge, so I will be judging off of the flow. I don't mind spreading, but if I can't understand an argument it will not be evaluated. Please speak clearly!! I also don't really pay attention to CX (I will be listening but not flowing, so if anything important is said bring it up in other speeches).
I don't care whether you stand/sit during a round, whatever makes you feel more comfortable.
I prefer substance debate over Ks and theory. If you chose to run a theory or a K that is your choice, but know that I am not entirely comfortable judging those. Please do not run disclosure theories.
Weighing is one of the first and most important things I evaluate in my flow. You must weigh at the end of your summary and final focus speeches otherwise my decision will slightly tip towards the other team. The earlier you start weighing the better.
When extending you must extend the full argument (warrant, link, impact) otherwise it doesn't count on the flow.
Sign post throughout the round!!!
Please start collapsing in first summary, it makes it so much easier for me to flow the rest of the round. It also makes your overall narrative clearer.
I love off the clock road maps.
I do not anticipate asking for evidence after the round unless something is unclear. Also do not bring up any new evidence/arguments in FF speeches. They will not be flowed.
speaks:
Nothing racist, homophobic, sexist etc. I will automatically vote for the other team.
Be kind to your opponents otherwise speaks will be tanked.
