Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Other (please explain below)
Policy priority: Communication skills are more important than resolution of substantive issues
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: Although I'd like to think that I'm a TABS judge, I'm more of a combination of Policymaking, Stocks, and more importantly on Speaking Skills - to me, delivery of the evidence and analysis is more important than the quantity of information with no emphasis on delivery skills.
LD
Approach: Communication skills are more important than resolution of substantive issues
Philosophy:
Judge based on how well each present clear, logical sequence to arguments and refute their opponents by exposing weakness and inconsistencies - generally, how well can they uphold their position and understand the topic of discussion with clear and articulate delivery.
