IPDA: As a judge, I highly value courtesy and education. There should be good clash in a debate, but that clash should not come at the expense of your opponent; remember you are debating their arguments, not them as a person. I like to keep IPDA as IPDA, meaning even people with no experience in debate should be able to understand your arguments and judge accordingly. I like to see debaters have fun with their topics and their opponents. I will try to "protect the flow" as best I can, meaning that I will not flow any new arguments that your opponent cannot respond to. I want contentions to have a logical link and impact; tell me why you're winning, rebut your opponents arguments, and tell me why it matters on a world-wide or national scale. I'm a sucker for a "two worlds scenario" and a strong collapse at the end of your last speech.
Speech events: I am open to anything you present. Have fun and be the amazing advocate you are.
