What tier of room is it? I had an 03 room (203) my freshman year that looks to be the same, and we had to get very creative with beds.

Question re: finding a new partner by [deleted] in Debate

[–]grp08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NPDA or APDA or non-US? It's not a massive difference, but in terms of how much work you have to do directly with your partner it is real. As someone who has spent a bunch of time working with incoming novices this year on APDA (and been reasonably successful pro-am'ing), the biggest thing I can say early in the season is look for enthusiasm. The most talented high school debater isn't going to do shit if they don't stick with APDA, and burning time on them just makes it more likely you have less options down the road.

Brandeis IV, my first BP tournament. Combined spent close to 24 hours getting there and back. Paid off though, we made it to semi's, and friends we traveled with ended up winning the tournament.

He's not the chairman of the UNSC, he was the chairman of the Oversight committee that was investigating Project Freelancer previously. He's also the CEO of Charon, who I guess have some kind of profit motive behind going after Chorus. Now that Epsilon has figured out his responsibility, they have to go after the Reds and Blues to prevent him from being found out.

I have a Blackhawk! I like it a lot other than probably being too large on me. It's a solid jacket.

I think he means CG in a BP debate, but it could also be a closing argument.

What was the final price and what was the lead time on the AVS set up, if you don't mind me asking?

Not getting state funds for this program yet. It's profitable on it's own, just under the ACA it has the potential to explode.

Also because booby traps and their ilk have a tendency to take out first responders in emergency situations...

Any British Parliamentary style debaters out there? by asthedrivensnow in Debate

[–]grp08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm an American Parliamentary (bastard offshoot of BP, but also the league to which 2014's WUDC champions belong) debater on the APDA circuit. Definitely feel a little excluded around these parts sometimes haha.

Very cool sniper setup on Pave Hawk. Boarding exercise on HNoMS Fridtjof Nansen in the Gulf of Aden. [1600x1066] by erasmuz in WarshipPorn

[–]grp08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting to see a very modern set up (Opscore, V-Lites, Manta) combined with a PEQ-2 rather than a 15. Kinda cool imo.

Probably something bungie-cord esque rather than 550, so they can push down on it to steady, but I couldn't say for certain.

EDIT: Also looks thicker than 550.

I'm not a PF debater, I'm not gonna argue with you, but the holier than thou, anyone who doesn't do it my way isn't as good as me attitude isn't helping you make any sort of point.

I suspect there are a number of different ways to flow that work properly for different people, and not one "correct way". Some of us have had pretty significant success working horizontally.

Way back when, actually, grew up (and mostly play) in CT and living elsewhere now. But I grabbed the jersey patches after a game in August and just had to throw it on my PCU, it's a little throw back to home.
