Benjamin Sun - Palmarian 22-23

Hello everyone! My name is Ben Sun - a 7th grade middle school student at Palms Middle School.

I have done PF and won Public Forum Debate at Elementary Nationals in 2019.

This is how I judge different types of debate:

Debate - Public Forum:

I have a public forum speciality. I am a hypothesis tester.

A hypothesis tester is viewing the topic resolution as a hypothesis that the affirmative team tests through their plan. This paradigm represents a heavy focus on resolution debate instead of plan-focused debate, and opens up some non-standard options for negative teams to use against the affirmative. Generic topic attacks, inherency arguments, counterplans, counterwarrants, and conditional arguments are generally all accepted by me.

LD/Policy debaters: I want the same from you guys.

Congress:

In working- I will explain to you what I want during the round

Speech:

In working - I will explain to you what I want during the round
