Peach Fuzz Speech Debate Tournament
2024 — NSDA Campus, GA/US
VPF Paradigm List
All Paradigms: Show Hide(TL;DR, Please send me your speech doc! I am a tech judge. PF is about persuasion, so don't frivolous/nonsensical arguments)
Hello! I am Kieran Kelly; I have done PF, LD, and Extemp at Carrollton High School for four years. I am currently in my first year at Georgia Tech and coaching the Midtown High School PF team. I am a private coach as well. I won national tournaments, qualified for TOC, and won six state championships(PF & Extemp). I am pretty familiar with most norms and arguments. As a judge, I will do my best to give you a fair, equitable decision based on the flow. I love forensics and firmly believe that winning or losing a round is a truly educational, fun experience.
For questions and evidence chains, email kierankelly678@icloud.com. Please send me your speech doc!
**** Theory and K's truth>tech. I WILL EVALUATE THEM, THOUGH!!!
DISCLOSURE: I like it at TOC bid tournaments. You will be dropped if you run this on the Georgia Circuit.
TRICKS: No way, pal. This is super lazy.
LARP: Probably preferred.
EVIDENCE: I look at it post-round and will not vote for sketchy evidence. I'll give you ~2 minutes to find your cards, but it should pretty much be on hand. The longer you take to find evidence, the more your speaks drop.
DELIVERY: I'm cool with speed, but I don't necessarily like it. I prefer that you deliver the speech in a way that makes me feel like you believe and are passionate about what you are talking about(even if you aren't).
WEIGHING ARGUMENTS: Run basically any FW with me, and I'll evaluate it. I will calculate the impact by considering magnitude in light of probability. However, if you prove any probability of an infinite result, I will vote on that. (extinction is not infinite unless you give me a reason to believe it is)
ORGANIZATION: I greatly appreciate good organization because it makes it significantly easier to flow. Off-time road maps are greatly encouraged, and I want a speech doc for constructive.
EXTRA STUFF: Be respectful, but don't be afraid to be passionate about what you are talking about.
