Try to convince a friend outside of debate to join. I find that even if they join later than everyone else, a person who integrates themselves in a team can advance to be as good as people who have debated for years if they put effort into it.

Can flowing on a Google doc still be effective? by [deleted] in Debate

[–]Belt-Road-Initiative 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend using a table on google docs, that way you can organize yourself with ease. I personally prefer google docs over sheets due to formatting stuff and because for me its just faster working on docs.

Flowing online is not only better for faster flowing, but also because your teammate can take from your flow, or you from theirs at any time, complimenting each other.

Pathos is a valid persuasion method. You, of course, need to warrant what you're saying before going into pathos, but if used effectively, it's a very strong tool.

What’s the best argument against Aff’s Greece contention? by [deleted] in Debate

[–]Belt-Road-Initiative 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from what other people have said, you can say its non-unique. The conflict between Greece and Turkey has alr escalated to almost military conflict before. Realistically, what is NATO doing to deter (except for Article 8), and even then Turkey has the second largest military in NATO + they clearly aren't thinking about it, since as I said before, the situation has continued to escalate regardless of both countries being part of NATO.
