I have been judging LD debates for the past couple of years mainly at the Novice and Junior Varsity Levels.

I do try to flow the debate and can handle moderate speeds but have difficulty with very fast speech. I am looking for clear, easy to understand, signposted arguments. I am also looking for clear rebuttals in clash.

When assigning speaker points I look for logical arguments, clarity, tone and courtesy.

I prefer to write comments on the ballot instead of orally disclosing.
