Hello! Some background on me: My name is Kino Farr, and I am a UC Berkeley student majoring in Rhetoric. I did speech & debate for 6 years before transferring to university, so I'm an experienced judge, don't worry.
Onto my paradigm:
Keep the debate theory out of this - I know how it works, but I focus on points and flow.
Enjoy yourself - I want to see that you're having a good time, otherwise, it's no fun for anybody. I want everybody to have a good time, so just take a deep breath and relax your shoulders before you speak. It'll be okay and you'll do great.
I think that's it? Cool

About me:
- Brentwood class of 27'
- 2x NSDA Nats Qualifier
- Semifinals Stanford
- 3 years LD, 2 years PF
Prefs:
-I consider myself an impartial judge (as any judge should be) and I will evaluate any argument. Just do your best, and have fun.
-Be as aggressive as you like, but don't be rude.
-I'm not new to debate: I won't be voting off the last speech but the big picture of the round (who has the most positive impacts).
-Weighing is very important. Please do impact calculus in final speeches. Tell me where you want me to vote and I will look there first. Why do you win under your fwk/vc? What does an AFF and NEG world look like?
-please have claim -> warrant -> impact for your evidence (I understand paraphrasing is the norm for PF, but a warrant is still necessary)
-I take a rigorous flow, but I prefer that you don't spread/go fast
