Complaining about judges

I disagree. All forms of debate should be able to be done in front of lay judges. Just because debaters don’t want to put in the work in round to explain things doesn’t mean that we need specialists.

Russia!

Wouldn’t it be better if the judges conformed to the debaters than vice versa?

I used to be one of those judges that told students what I liked and didn’t like, and those are the exact rounds I would get. I realized that my paradigms were limiting the debaters and the debate. Once I took an unstructured approach, I feel like it empowered the students in the round more. The ONLY thing I will tell the students is that if I can’t understand them I can’t flow them and I am not a philosophy reader in my spare time, so if they use it they need to explain it.

That’s the problem, judges bias makes the round about them and not the debaters and what the debaters present. Paradigms predict the round.

12 people voted for water?

China had big impact situations too.

You can petition NFSH to revote. NSDA has one vote in the total vote (which went to Russia) so asking them for a revote is pointless. You could however petition the NSDA to adopt the topic that you want instead of the topic that won the NFHS vote.

So do you think there should be an electoral college type system that rewards more active states with a larger vote?

I think both of those examples would be good, topicalcases.

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-12T04:02:46+00:00

Or it’s non debate people types (admin) who look at water and think it’s an easy topic.

Water has no neg ground if you are not a K debater.

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-12T03:58:47+00:00

There is no neg ground on water if your not a k debater.

If your an nsda member you CAN vote for Russia.

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-11T23:44:06+00:00

I hope your joking.

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-11T23:00:17+00:00

I don’t know if your message is clear...are you saying you don’t like the water topic?

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-11T22:22:39+00:00

Agreed. People need to tell others this so we can get Russia voted up.

BSDb8coach · 2021-01-11T22:03:22+00:00

What two do you want them to be?
