TOPICALITY - is competing interpretations of the resolution. If your interruption is better for debate and you will get my vote. I have some sympathy for resonantly arguments.

THEORY - these debates tend to be way to fast fast, slow down and explain fully the violation and the impact to the violation. I will vote on any thing if it has a developed impact and a clear violation.

CRITIQUES - operate an abstract level that doesn't address the concrete consequences of plan action most of the time. If you want to win I need to be able to fully explain how the critique either turns the affirmative impact claims and or makes it impossible to solve. I am not fluent in the literature if you engage in esoteric philosophic language or concepts most likely I will be left behind. A intricate articulation of how the critique operates in simple terms is key to getting my vote on the K.

PERFORMANCE - arguments should be grounded in a plan text that represents topical action.

COUNTERPLANS / DA- favorite type of debates do it.
