Judging Philosophy

CX

Rounds judged: 3
Judging approach: Tabula Rasa
Policy priority: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Evidence philosophy: Quantity of evidence and quality of evidence are of equal importance
Paradigm: I'm tab, default stock. I'll listen to/flow all arguments (except K aff) as long as you explain to me what they are, why they matter and are not blatantly offensive. I think education is super important so I want to see that the competitors understand the arguments they are running and are able to warrant them out. Also, I'm good with spreading so long as the document is shared with both me and your opponents and you should slow down for tags and analytics.
