Judging Philosophy
CX
Judging approach: Stock Issues
Policy priority: Communication skills are more important than resolution of substantive issues
Evidence philosophy: Quality of evidence is more important than quantity of evidence
Paradigm: I think that having a few good pieces of evidence is better than having 20 and hoping that they drop. I also like for them to supply the road map to keep me on track.
LD
Approach: Communication skills are more important than resolution of substantive issues
Philosophy:
Same as CX, quality over quantity. If I can understand their argument with a few good points they can defend or attack well it helps their chances.
