Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Other (please explain below)
Policy priority: Resolution of substantive issues is more important than communication skills
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: Honestly just use persuasion and quality evidence to tell me why you won in a clear and logical way.
LD
Approach: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Philosophy:
I would not feel comfortable judging LD, I only competed in it once.
