I debated varsity PF and LD on my high school team for two years.  KRITIKS- Okay: show impacts for everything!  Counterplans/DA- Not a huge fan, but not opposed to them. Make sure you convince me why your counterplan is better, again, show impacts!  Theory – should be clear how it is relevant to the substance of the debate.  <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">I judge based on how well you show impacts and uphold your values. Why are your arguments better? Why am voting for you? <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"> <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Other: <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"> <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">There's a difference between being rude and being assertive- don't be a jerk. <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"> <span style="color: #222222; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: Calibri,sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Impacts!
