Judging Preferences: What I pay attention to and listen for:

 * ====Clear and coherent articulation====
 * ====Persuasiveness of argument====
 * ====Breathing====
 * ====Eye contact====
 * ====Minimal theory - minimal philosophy====
 * ====Dropped arguments====
 * ====Concrete transitions====
 * ====Well-reasoned, well-researched evidence====
 * ==== Logical, rational analytics ====
 * ====Debaters who are succinct and use well cut evidence====
 * ====Spreading is my least favorite technique in debate.====
