LD
Rounds judged: 8+
Approach: Resolution of substantive issues is more important than communication skills
Philosophy:
K's have to be realistic or we go into substantive focus which I believe is the primary purpose of LD anyway. K's and outlandish theories with low impact harms or bad alt's bother me. Also, a higher pref to clarity over speed as I believe LD you don't need speed.
