Judging Philosophy

CX

Rounds judged: 40+
Judging approach: Stock Issues
Policy priority: Communication skills and resolution of substantive issues are of equal importance
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: I am a stock issues judge that responds to clash. I want to see honest debate over the topic. I do not like theory arguments or kritiks. I also do not like spreading. I expect each side to be respectful of our time and the education and predictability of the round.
