Judging Philosophy:

I judge based on just a few points.
 * There should be strong cases on both sides.
 * Make sure you extend your contentions.
 * Don't drop your opponent's contentions in your rebuttals.
 * When it comes to speed, feel free to go as fast as you like - I will flow it. However, speed doesn't equal a good case. I will be paying attention to your substance so if there is nothing there don't expect to win unless your opponent drops your contentions.
 * If it becomes a framework debate, you better give me voting issues and a counter framework to work with.
 * I expect civility at all times - personal attacks do not earn you any points with me ... even if they are funny.
 * You cannot influence me with a large Dunkin Donuts coffee with four sugars and skim milk - don't even try ... seriously ... don't.
