I debated three years at Millard North high school (class of 1999 - Omaha, NE) - mostly midwest with some national tournaments.

In college I was highly active in the local judging community and was even awarded the Ulrich Award for my assistance and dedication to the novice community. I judged sporadically post college and was moderately current with the community.

__Judging preferences:__
 * I prefer argumentation over performance. Performance in a round has some weight but I know when it crosses the line and becomes a whole other activity I'll know. You'll know I know by the look on my face or the doodles on the ballot.
 * Topicality is important, but speeding reading through thirty blippy points does not create discussion.
 * Try and be semi presentable. I decree if there are fishnets to be worn in (and or around) the round it shall be me, and me alone.
 * I would prefer not to read evidence after the round - that would mean be clear and explain the warrants of your cards. (This also means pulling through card by a tag alone is not regarded highly.)
 * I expect the seven types of inherency to be upheld and discussed in the round as well as clear cut funding and enforcement mechanisms... naw - just kidd'n. A decently structure case is great though!
 * Impact calculus is enjoyed - probability, time frame, and magnitude.
 * Kritiques are okay if they are given the due diligence required. Speeding through Bauldrillard cards is not a preferably way to engage in philosophy.
 * Speed is tolerated but if I yell out 'clear' you should modify your speech skills to best clear up your communication. If that means: slow down, enunciate, or spit more then make that adjustment. End game - if I can't intelligibly hear the argument I will not have it down in which case you may lose the round (and that would be your fault).
 * I have been told my zodiac affinity is for policy maker.
 * Tag team cross-ex is not a big issue but I expect the person up there to respond the majority of the time. I mean come on - this is one of the fleeting moments you lock swords with the opposing side so make the most of it!

I am certain you will have questions before the round and that's fine... well unless I have *that* face on.
